Absolum Switch 2 Release Announced

Silver Lining Interactive and DotEmu announced that beat-’em-up action RPG Absolum is coming to Nintendo Switch 2. The Switch 2 version will be available later this year, including a full-cartridge physical release. The physical edition is available to pre-order from Silver Lining Direct and selected local retailers for $49.99/£44.99/€49.99, and will release later this year.

Absolum is currently available digitally on PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch. Developed by Streets of Rage 4 developers DotEmu and Guard Crush Games, as well as Supamonks, Absolum sees players fighting as one of four rebels in the fantasy world of Talamh, which was shattered after wizards caused a magical cataclysm. With magic untrusted by the common people, Sun King Azra took advantage, enslaving wizards and putting loyal subordinates in charge of his conquered realms. Players join the rebels, under the mentorship of Uchawi and the Root Sisters, who utilise a forbidden magic, and seek to topple Azra’s grip on power.
