The Metroidvania-style game, Forsaken Castle, has reached its Kickstarter goal and surpassed its stretch goal of $35,000, meaning that the game will be coming to Switch.
Forsaken Castle, developed by Duck Block Games, is a 16-bit style, action exploration platformer about a paladin and her fight against evil. It’s clearly inspired by the classic Castlevania games of old, and will see players discover new abilities, fight enemies and explore a handcrafted world in a retro pixel art style.
Forsaken Castle is expected to be released in October 2017 on Switch, PC, PS4. PS Vita and Xbox One. With the recent news that Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night is only 20-30 percent complete, Forsaken Castle may help to whet appetites of Metroidvania fans in the meantime. Stay tuned to Nintendojo for more information as it develops.
