Hyper Light Drifter Hits Switch This Summer

Abylight Studios and Heart Machine are teaming up to bring Hyper Light Drifter to Nintendo Switch in Summer 2018.

Hyper Light Drifter is an action adventure RPG previously released on Wii U. Thanks to support from GameMaker engine creator Yoyo Games, the Switch port will be made possible.

Abylight Studios is currently working on the adaptation to Nintendo Switch closely with Yoyo Games, developer of the engine “GameMaker” used to create the game, as this title pushed the technical envelope. Once the development is finished, Abylight will release the game worldwide.

Hyper Light Drifter is an action adventure RPG which features intense action, other-worldly environments and a captivating storyline. Our Hero is haunted by an insatiable illness, traveling further into the lands of Buried Time, hoping to discover a way to quiet the vicious disease much like its creator, Alex Preston, who suffers of a heart disease, major source of inspiration for this game.
