Previously, we reported on new trademarks for Game Freak’s platforming adventure Giga Wrecker Alt. – which hinted at an updated Switch port.

After some silence, Rising Star Games has finally released an official announcement for the title. As suggested by the trademarks in Taiwan and Japan, the game is indeed heading to Nintendo Switch. Additionally, the game will be getting a physical retail version through Limited Run Games!

While we await further news of a release date and price, check out the trailer below.

Giga Wrecker Alt. is a mixture of exploration and physics. Bring down towering walls and then use the rubble as a platform for navigating each level. Mechanical skill and creative problem solving will be tested.

Giga Wrecker was brought to life through Game Freak’s internal “Gear Project” where its developers are encouraged to come up with intriguing ideas for games outside the company’s normal. The game also features music by video game composer, Shinij Hosoe, known for Ridge Racer and Tekken, among many other titles.
