SteamWorld Quest – Switch Gameplay Footage!

SteamWorld Quest Embarks on a Grand Adventure April 25th on Nintendo Switch!

Gothenburg, Sweden. March 26 – Thunderful Publishing is proud to announce that the latest game from Image & Form, SteamWorld Quest: Hand of Gilgamech, comes first to Nintendo Switch on April 25th. The game is available exclusively on Nintendo eShop for the foreseeable future and goes for $24.99 / €24.99 / £22.49. Once again the Gothenburg-based studio take the SteamWorld franchise in a bold new direction; SteamWorld Quest is their first RPG and Image & Form is switching things up with card-based battles where you build, craft and upgrade your heroes’ decks.

“The SteamWorld community has asked us to make an RPG for a long time, so I’m really happy and satisfied that we’re delivering such a polished title way sooner than anyone expected. Since we announced in January we’ve watched the growing excitement among gamers, press and content creators. I’m confident that fans of RPGs and previous SteamWorld games will adore SteamWorld Quest because it’s an absolute gem. We will keep the momentum going via our website and social media channels until the release and beyond,” says Brjánn Sigurgeirsson, CEO at Image & Form.

In SteamWorld Quest, you lead a party of aspiring heroes who take on whatever threat comes their way by crafting your own deck of cards – choosing from over 100 unique punch-cards! What awaits you is a luscious treasure chest filled with gold, dragons, vivid worlds, magic, knights in shining armor as well as XP, turn-based combat and all the usuals that RPG fans love! The mix of traditional fantasy and bantering steam-driven robots makes for an unforgettable experience with lots of laughs.

In one sentence: SteamWorld Quest hits Nintendo Switch digitally on April 25th for $24.99 or your region’s equivalent.

SteamWorld Dig surfacing February 22nd on Nintendo 3DS!

In the last six months, we here at Image & Form have been busier than ever. SteamWorld Dig 2 launched on multiple platforms to great fanfare. Just recently we brought both the original Dig and the ultimate edition of SteamWorld Heist to Nintendo Switch. But we’ve kept quiet on purpose about one platform… because it’s very special to us. It’s the hardware that put us on the map with the original game, and now that we’ve come full circle, we couldn’t be more proud.

*DRUMROLL*

I’m thrilled to announce that SteamWorld Dig 2 launches on the Nintendo 3DS family of systems next week on February 22! The release will be exclusive to Nintendo eShop and go for $19.99 / €19.99. It’s the ultra-portable version of our biggest adventure, optimized to run at 60 fps even with stereoscopic 3D turned on! It runs like a charm even on the earliest iterations of the hardware, and many of us still enjoy this machine to the max.

We expect great things from the 3DS in 2018, and we firmly believe Nintendo will keep supporting the system for a good while yet. I and the team hope you will enjoy SWD2 when it surfaces next week!

Image & Form’s SteamWorld Dig 2 emerging September 21st on Nintendo Switch for $19.99!

Howdy, partners!

SteamWorld Dig 2 hits Nintendo Switch on September 21st for $19.99 / €19.99 / £14.99 or your region’s equivalent. That’s something I’ve wanted to write for a very long time! We revealed it today during Nintendo’s Nindies Showcase in a brand new trailer. We tease new worlds, enemies, upgrades and challenges.

We also revealed 10 beautiful new screenshots. Head over to the official game page for all new images and other details.

Release Date and Price

As mentioned above, SteamWorld Dig 2 world premieres on Nintendo Switch in America and Europe on September 21st. According to Almanac.com it’s the penultimate day of summer, so we don’t miss our original summer release window! Isn’t that something?

The game will be available for download on Nintendo eShop for $19.99. That’s twice the price of the original SteamWorld Dig. But since it’s at least ten times as good it’s more than a nice deal. You can expect around 10 hours of gameplay and multiple boss battles in a big, sprawling world which you’re free to explore and dig through at your own pace. The game is even longer for those of you itching to find all secrets and unlockables (and there are plenty).

SteamWorld Heist lands Oct 20th on Nintendo Wii U in NA!

Image & Form release Wii U launch trailer for SteamWorld Heist!

Image & Form bringing SteamWorld Collection to retail; will be in Europe & North America!

SteamWorld Heist DLC releasing tomorrow; includes 5 new languages!

On April 28 we introduce The Outsider – Image & Form’s first add-on content (DLC) for the studio’s acclaimed strategy shooter SteamWorld Heist on Nintendo 3DS. The Outsider will cost $4.99/€4.99/£4.49 or the equivalent.

How to play
The Outsider is not a conventional add-on. The new plot, missions, enemies, end boss, guns, utilities and dozens of new hats – of course! – blend seamlessly into the game. This means that, aside from starting afresh, you can pick up earlier save profiles, discover the history of Fen, and add the character to your roster pretty much immediately. And what an addition it is!

“Fen’s got some really fearsome firepower and clever upgrade mechanics that turn kills into own health and massive damage to others,” says Image & Form CEO Brjann Sigurgeirsson. “Busting up metal has never been this rewarding!”

Five new languages + Free Update
Outside of The Outsider, April 28 also sees a substantial free update to SteamWorld Heist itself. Players that prefer to have their steam-driven robots speak in French, German, Italian, Spanish or Russian will be happy, and due to popular demand we’ve also expanded the inventory a bit – now you have more empty slots from the outset, and getting new slots will be less taxing on your water reserves. And there’s more utilities. Oh, and even more weird hats.

Installing the free update makes The Outsider available from within SteamWorld Heist.
