With inspirations that range from old classics like Battle of Olympus to newer games like Trine 2, Alwa’s Awakening is bound to make an impact when it launches this summer.

“Ever since the Switch console was first announced people have been asking us for a port and now we’re finally able to say – Yes, Alwa’s Awakening is coming to Switch!” says lead designer Mikael Forslind. He continues, “When we made Alwa’s Awakening we stayed true to the old NES limitations as much as we could. So much that we actually released the soundtrack on an actual cartridge.”
