by

As a gaming enthusiast, I’ve got to say that the Nintendo Switch is an amazing platform with a vast array of games across various genres. However, one genre that hasn’t quite found its footing there is horror – it’s been relatively scarce compared to others, possibly due to Nintendo’s family-friendly image or the limitations of the hardware. Yet, there are some spine-tingling horror games on Switch, and more developers are starting to recognize its potential as a platform for frightening experiences, expanding the library even further.

Recently, some exciting news has dropped – three heart-stoppingly popular and terrifying horror games will soon be making their way onto the Nintendo Switch! Fans of these series will undoubtedly recognize their other titles, but this marks the first time these particular games will grace the Switch. Can’t wait to get my hands on them!

Here are three upcoming horror games set to release on Nintendo Switch: “Amnesia: Rebirth”, “Amnesia: The Bunker”, and “SOMA”. These terrifying titles will be available both physically and digitally, allowing fans to choose their preferred method of purchase. Unfortunately, a specific release date for these games has yet to be announced.

With great excitement, we’re thrilled to share that we’ve struck a deal with Frictional Games! This partnership will bring four chilling masterpieces – SOMA, Amnesia: The Bunker, Amnesia: Rebirth, and the Amnesia Collection – to the #NintendoSwitch. Best of all, these terrifying titles will be available in both digital and physical formats. For more details, head over to Abylight Shop at abylight.shop/en/
