Aksys Games is bringing the puzzle adventure title UNDERGROUNDED to the Nintendo Switch this fall. This expansion matters because it gives console players access to a narrative-driven experience that previously stayed on PC. The move broadens the audience for a game that relies on nostalgic themes and retro mechanics.
Puzzle adventure game expands from PC to portable console
The Switch release joins the PC version, which launched on Steam on the same day as the announcement. UNDERGROUNDED was developed by Game Studio and centers on a young man searching for a lost ring. Players navigate an underground maze using the mysterious power of retro games to progress through the story.
The game takes players through nostalgic landscapes of America’s past. Aksys Games describes the experience as a journey where you help the protagonist solve puzzles in a maze. The core loop involves using retro game mechanics to uncover secrets and find the lost item.
This announcement marks the first time UNDERGROUNDED is available on a Nintendo console. The Switch version arrives later this year, following the initial PC launch. Players can expect the same puzzle-adventure gameplay on a portable platform.
