Super Rare Games has revealed their next limited edition release and arriving just in time for Halloween, Darkwood is getting a physical release for Nintendo Switch. This new release comes as part of Super Rare Games’ partnership with Acid Wizard Studio and Crunching Koalas to bring this brilliant top-down survival horror in physical form to the Nintendo Switch.
Darkwood is also a limited edition and only 5,000 copies will be made worldwide. Sales will begin on October 8, 2020, at 6 PM BST and it will set you back $31. The limited-edition physical release will be available exclusively at Super Rare Games. Unlike most of the limited-edition releases, Super Rare Games has games ready to ship out when orders go live so fans do not have to wait long for their limited-edition physical copies to arrive with them.
According to Super Rare Games’ press release, ever since its reveal earlier this year, Darkwood has been one of their most asked games all year and now it is finally arriving this month. The physical release will include the full game on its cart, a full-color manual, interior artwork, an exclusive sticker, and three trading cards randomly selected from the five-card set. Check out the trailer for the new release below:
If you’ve never played Darkwood before then you should know that it is a top-down horror game that brings a new perspective on survival horror. Key features of Dark Wood include:
- Scavenge and explore the rich, ever-changing free-roam world by day, then hunker down in your hideout and pray for the morning light.
- No hand-holding or quest markers. Test your skills and figure things out on your own!
- Gain skills and perks by extracting a strange essence from mutated fauna and flora and injecting it into your bloodstream. Watch out for unexpected consequences…
- Each choice you make is permanent and will have an impact on you, or
- Darkwood’s inhabitants. Every time you play, you will see a different story unfold.
- Meet eerie characters, learn their stories, and decide their fate. And remember – don’t trust anyone.
- As nights go by, the lines between reality and nightmarish fantasies begin to blur. Are you ready to step into Darkwood?
For orders, you can head over to the official website and check it out. Orders will begin next week so make sure that you order on time because this one is going to run out quickly.
