Brisbane based studio Prideful Sloth was on Twitter earlier, teasing something, and while people guessed pretty easily what it was, we did not have to wait long for the official announcement. The stunningly beautiful platform, Yonder: The Cloud Catcher Chronicles is coming to Switch.
In the game, players will enter the land of Gemea, which is filled with natural delights. With places like luscious forests, quiet shores, and frozen peaks, players will find that they are home to adorable creatures such as Fabbits and Squombles. These wild wonders beckon to those with a penchant for exploration.
When a curious dark miasma infects the flora and fauna, it’s up to your hero to discover the origin of the strange substance. Create your own hero or heroine and embark on your journey of self-discovery across the gorgeous island and aid the people in need of your assistance.
“The beauty of Yonder is in its calming pace and relaxing gameplay. You’re free to explore the open world however you choose; it’s a beautiful, safe, inviting world,” said Cheryl Vance, co-founder and director at Prideful Sloth. “The Nintendo Switch lends itself to leisurely, comfortable play. It’s a great home for the unique experiences that Yonder provides.”
While no specific date has been given yet, a lot of indies seem to announce only weeks before releasing the game, no matter, when we know the date, we shall let you know. Until then however, enjoy these screens from the Switch version of the game as well.
See how much you did, or didn't play things.
