Very Very Valet, which comes to Switch in early 2021 as a timed exclusive, joins an ever-increasing roster of ordinary-jobs-turned-party-game, this one inviting up to four friends to work together in order to pick up, park, and return cars in over 20 locations.

Tunche - coming first on Switch in March next year - is a hand-drawn hack-and-slash-style game with rogue-like elements that unfolds in a world inspired by the Amazon rainforest. It sees players, cast as one of five heroes (each with own skills and abilities), battling fearsome beasts as they search for the mythical creature of title. Local co-op play is also supported.
Animal Crossing: New Horizons and
Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity, it hasn’t turned its eye on indie games coming to the Switch. With the end of the year in sight, Nintendo has given us a peek at what to expect from its indie game lineup heading into 2021, including a mix of indie game favorites alongside some new reveals and surprises.
As revealed earlier in the week, Nintendo officially aired its latest (and likely final) Indie World Showcase for 2020, giving us a closer look at the indie titles making their way to Nintendo Switch in the coming months of 2021. Over the course of the 15-minute Showcase we ended up getting a glimpse of nearly 20 indie games heading to Switch (and elsewhere), and below you’ll find all of the games showcased at the latest Indie World Showcase.
Cave story. Updated on 15 December 2020
Developer Derek Yu s much-loved subterranean platform rogue-like Spelunky - and its critically acclaimed sequel - are finally heading to Switch, with a launch window of summer 2021.
There s been a rising clamour for both games on Switch for quite some time, of course; partly because the brisk replay loop inherent in rogue-likes is particularly well-suited to portable play, but mostly, simply, because Spelunky 1 and 2 are just utterly masterful games.
Eurogamer called Spelunky a creation of rare crystal clarity that sparkles from every angle when it reviewed the acclaimed 2012 remake on PC, giving its refined procedural platforming a mighty 10/10 (and, later, an Essential badge when they came in).
Spelunky & Spelunky 2 Coming to Nintendo Switch in Summer 2021
Spelunky and
Spelunky 2 are coming to Nintendo Switch next year. Mossmouth and Blitworks revealed the ports during today’s December Nintendo Indie World Showcase presentation, saying that both games will come to Switch in summer 2021. Though
Spelunky shook the indie scene when it launched for Xbox 360 around a decade ago, its sequel arrived in only September of this year. See the reveal trailer below.
Stock up on ropes and get ready to explore the everchanging underground worlds of #Spelunky and #Spelunky2 from @mossmouth and @BlitWorks!
If you’re unfamiliar with the indie platformer roguelike, it got its start in 2008 as a freeware game from creator Derek Yu.
