Feeling trigger-happy, but not for first-person shooters? This upcoming Switch release from publisher Eastasiasoft and developer Rainbite might just suit your tastes!

The two companies have announced that Trigger Witch will be hitting the Nintendo Switch eShop and other major platforms in Summer 2021. In a world where magic has been swept aside for guns, players will take the role of the witch Colette as she shoots up her foes!

Check out the official trailer with more details below:

Recalling the visual style and intuitive gameplay of 16-bit action-adventure classics, Trigger Witch puts an ultra-violent spin on cute and colorful pixel art. With a compelling and original narrative, puzzling environments to explore, a dynamic soundtrack, twin-stick shooter mechanics and a vast array of enemies to blast into smithereens, this is a tale that will grip you from start to bloody finish.

From the creators of Reverie, Trigger Witch is a stylized 2D twin-stick action game set in an odd open world where magic is outdated and firearms are the new way of life. Players assume the role of Colette, a prospective graduate from the Stock, an academy for Witchcraft and Triggery. After a mysterious man invades her realm, events are set in motion that turn Colette’s life upside-down, casting her as the sole heroine with enough firepower to restore peace.
