The Fall comes to Switch next week

Canadian developer Over The Moon has today announced that The Fall, the first part of the saga will be coming to Nintendo Switch next week, joining the sequel that was released earlier this year.

In The Fall, players take on the role of ARID (Armoured Robotics Interface Device), the artificial intelligence within a high-tech combat suit, whose human pilot has been rendered unconscious. It’s up to players to take control of the suit and drag his lifeless body towards help through the game’s brooding, atmospheric environments.

“I can’t wait for Nintendo Switch players to finally experience The Fall,” said Creative Director and Over the Moon Founder John Warner. “For those players that enjoyed The Fall Part 2: Unbound, this is where it started. For everybody else, now you have two deep, narrative sci-fi experiences to dive into.”

The Fall was released on Wii U, but for Switch owners, this will be the first chance they have to play the game, providing some context to events from the sequel.
