Wayforward has announced they will be bringing Spidersaurs to Switch this Spring.

Originally released back in 2019 for Apple Arcade, Spidersaurs is a run-and-gun action game created by the developers of Contra 4, and has players fighting against monstrous hybrids of spiders and dinosaurs. This re-release of the game for modern consoles and PC will be the “definitive edition” with even more content, which will also be added to the Apple Arcade version.

Check out the trailer below, along with additional details via Wayforward:

About

Inspired by classic action games and Saturday morning cartoons from days gone by, Spidersaurs is an original property from the development team behind the acclaimed Contra 4 that pits one or two players against a man-eating mutant menace. When INGESTCorp’s herd of terrifying half-spider, half-dinosaur hybrids (originally created as a new food source for humanity) goes on a rampage, it’s up to punk rocker Victoria and officer-in-training Adrian to run, jump, climb, and shoot their way through multiple levels of over-the-top, high-octane mayhem. Armed with an assortment of character-specific weapons (including Victoria’s Metal Spread and Electronica Chain and Adrian’s Flame Thrower and Rebound Breaker) and special Spidersaur powers, players must navigate the INGESTCorp facility and put a stop to the mindless army of genetically engineered monsters.

Expanding upon its debut release, the console and PC version of Spidersaurs adds several new features to the game: an all-new stage, a new true final boss, a new ending, two new difficulty settings, and two new unlockable modes (arcade mode and speedrun mode). Other tweaks and balance adjustments have also been implemented, including mid-level checkpoints, rebalanced boss order, and numerous visual improvements. The existing Apple Arcade version of Spidersaurs will receive these updates as well.
