Did you catch Nintendo’s Indie World presentation today on YouTube? Nintendo showed off more than 20 indie hits on their way to the Switch, including a handful that are out later today. Don’t worry if you missed it, we kept track.
First off we’ve got the big news. Supergiant’s Hades, that silly Epic Game Store exclusive, is coming to the Nintendo Switch this fall. You can read more about that here. Another big deal is a free multiplayer update coming to Untitled Goose Game on September 23. Mind you that’s across all versions of the game, including Steam, which launches that very day.
Rather than go through the game announcements as they appeared in the presentation, let’s start with the games coming out today.
Out Today
Spiritfarer makes its debut on Nintendo Switch later today. It’s a cosy management sim about dying and saying goodbye. Sounds uplifting!
Raji: An Ancient Epic, a game based on ancient Hindu and Balinese mythology, launches today as a timed console exclusive on Switch.
Another timed exclusive launching today is A Short Hike, the incredibly mellow PC game from last year.
Perspective-twisting puzzler Manifold Garden, until now an Apple Arcade exclusive, comes out on Switch later today.
Another Apple Arcade game, puppet-based RPG Takeshi and Hiroshi, launches on Switch later today.
Finally, Stone Lantern Games’ haunting and ethereal afterlife adventure, Evergate, is coming to the Switch later today as well.
Coming Out Later This Year
Not out today but pretty damn soon, ‘90s hacking game Hypnospace Outlaw comes to Switch on August 27, with a demo later today.
This fall the Switch gets multiplayer dungeon crawler Torchlight III, complete with an exclusive in-game pet. How fancy.

Underwater survival hit Subnautica is making the jump to Nintendo Switch next year along with its sequel, Subnautica Below Zero.
Bear and Breakfast, a wilderness hotel sim from Gummy Cat, is a timed console exclusive for Switch that launches in 2021. It looks adorable.
