Developer Giant Squid and publisher Annapurna Interactive have a treat for Switch owners next week – they’ve announced Desperate will come on a hybrid platform February 2. This title originally launched exclusively on PlayStation consoles, as well as Windows and Apple devices in 2020.
The developer is the same team behind the underwater hit ABZÛ. In this new adventure, you take on the role of a hunter – a master of archery who will travel across a mystical island to dispel the curse of darkness. Together with your eagle companion, your task is to hunt down corrupt spirits as you explore misty forests, solve puzzles and engage in some epic battles.
Our friends in Push Square recorded in PS5 review how the world of The Pathless evokes similar feelings to games like The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Shadow of the colossus. And in case you were wondering – yes, there will be a physical retail release for the Nintendo Switch. This is handled by iam8bit and Skybound.
