A hit Xbox Game Pass adventure game is coming to Nintendo Switch and PS5

Foxy Zelda-like Tunic is coming to Nintendo and PlayStation platforms in September, after making its way to Xbox and PC consoles earlier in the year.

An adventure RPG that builds on old-school Zelda titles, Tunic caused a stir when it launched on Xbox Series X | S and PC in March. It will make the jump to Nintendo Switch, PS5 and PS4 on September 27.

The news was revealed during the latest Nintendo Direct presentation in a new trailer. Check it out below to get an idea of ​​the whole atmosphere of Tunic.

the cunning look

Tunic drops you on a colorful labyrinthine island and has you explore the different locations of his magical world, while fighting strange creatures and plunging into dungeons. Little by little you will discover his secrets and decipher the fictitious language of a false instruction manual to learn new skills.

The game is also an Xbox Game Pass hit. Tunic landed on Microsoft's subscription service on the day of its launch, making it immediately available to millions of gamers who might never otherwise have tried the cute adventure RPG. Even designer Andrew Shouldice was impressed with the instant audience he found.

"Game Pass is an incredible deal," Shouldice told TrueAchievements (opens in a new tab). “10 million people, or 20 million people, have Game Pass, something like that. It's ridiculous, isn't it? And then the idea of ​​'Oh yeah, this whole audience can play your game now'... I can't even imagine it.

Tunic should be right at home on Nintendo's handheld console, with its pastel visuals matching the heavyweight aesthetic of the Nintendo family. We think it's also one of the best Steam Deck games currently available, so it should translate well to a mobile platform.
