NetherWorld is Getting a Physical Release on Nintendo Switch. Pre-Orders Now Open!

A debauched, darkly hilarious adventure is now coming to your collection in glorious physical form!

Barcelona, Spain – 1st April 2025. Buckle up, sinners! NetherWorld is crashing onto Nintendo Switch in a brand-new physical edition, now open for pre-orders! SelectaPlay and developer Hungry Pixel are bringing their twisted, booze-soaked, worm-infested, darkly hilarious 2D action-adventure narrative game to Nintendo Switch in a physical format, launching alongside the digital release for PC via Steam and Nintendo Switch later this year.

The boxed edition doesn’t just look good on your shelf, it comes with a full-color ‘NetherWorld for Dummies’ manual, immersing you even deeper in the debauchery. If you love collecting physical treasures (or just want something tangible to clutch while questioning your life choices), get your pre-order in now! Check with your local stockists for availability and pricing before they disappear faster than Medoo’s dignity.

What is NetherWorld?

Meet Medoo, the world’s saddest jellyfish. After being unceremoniously dumped by his wife, he drowns his sorrows in vodka, only to wake up in a surreal, sleazy nightmare filled with degenerates, perverts, and psychopaths. His only way forward? Navigating the madness, making questionable choices, and maybe, just maybe, piecing together his broken life (or at least scoring a cool hat along the way).

NetherWorld Features:

A Twisted Story – Meet a cast of totally respectable citizens, including coke-fueled mages, entrepreneurial prostitutes, sadistic mobsters, and sociopathic kids who’d make a demon blush. Will they help Medoo? Probably not.

Insane Minigames – Get wasted in drinking competitions, dabble in ‘ahem’ extracurricular activities, blast enemies to pieces, or guide a bionic tick named Joe through underground roguelike dungeons. Just another Tuesday.

Bonkers Boss Fights – Face down grotesque, nightmarish foes using whatever weapons (or poor life choices) you have at your disposal. Feeling brave? Try fighting unarmed, we dare you.

Get Your Hands on the Physical Edition!

NetherWorld is set to launch digitally in 2025 for PC via Steam and Nintendo Switch, but collectors and chaos-lovers can secure the special physical boxed edition for Nintendo Switch right now. Pre-orders are open now, so don’t miss out!

Watch the physical announcement trailer for NetherWorld below.

NetherWorld Features:

  • A Twisted Story – Stumble through a world of coke-fueled mages, entrepreneurial prostitutes, deranged mobsters, sociopathic kids, and sleazy old perverts, all of whom claim they can help you put your shattered life back together. (Spoiler: they absolutely won’t.)
  • Insane Minigames – Need cash or questionable rewards? Test your skills in drunken brawls, reckless flings, trigger-happy shootouts, and even piloting a bionic tick named Joe through grimy roguelike dungeons. Bonus: Complete certain quests and unlock stylish hats, masks, weapons, and more!
  • Bonkers Boss Fights – Time to throw down! Face grotesque, nightmarish bosses with an arsenal of guns, melee weapons, and environmental hazards—or if you’re feeling especially masochistic, go in completely unarmed. (Good luck with that.)

Get Your Hands on the Physical Edition!

NetherWorld, published by SelectaPlay and developed by Hungry Pixel, launches digitally in 2025 for PC via Steam (Wishlist now!) and Nintendo Switch, but the special physical boxed edition for Nintendo Switch is up for pre-order now! Get yours before they’re gone!

Cybernetic Roguelite KIBORG Launches on April 30 on PC, PlayStation, Xbox Systems

Escape a 1300-year prison sentence with the power of extreme violence

1 April, 2025 – KIBORG, the fast-paced action rogue-lite with brutal, cybernetic-enhanced combat from developer Sobaka Studio, gears up for blood-splattering action on Wednesday, April 30, 2025, on PlayStation 4 & 5, Xbox Series X|S and One, and PC via Steam. Preorders begin today for the Xbox versions.

Morgan Lee has been accused of war crimes he didn’t commit and sentenced to a 1,300-year sentence on the galaxy’s worst prison planet with no hope of parole. Death provides no escape, as his jailors will keep reviving him until he serves every last second. But one way out does exist: win on Cable Galactica’s hottest game show, “The Last Ticket.”

Starting off with just melee attacks, brutalize waves of foes with kicks and punches, eventually earning ranged weapons like simple pistols up to assault rifles and futuristic firearms that can pack a punch from a distance. Roll to dodge attacks, or use carefully-timed blocks to deflect enemy attacks, just don’t run out of energy.

The Last Ticket’s grotesque host Volkov may be a monster, but he likes entertainment, so Morgan has access to cybernetic implants that increase the strength of his melee attacks, enable literally bone-crushing combos, and enable the usage of giant sledgehammers. What’s a cybernetic upgrade without the ability to unleash special powers like rocket-propelled dash punches and electric shockwaves?

Reviving Morgan after each run will prove to be Volkov’s gravest mistake, as the currency earned each run can go toward permanent unlocks, giving Morgan more and more advantages as he seeks freedom, no matter what it may cost him along the way.

“After spending several years developing KIBORG, and the dramatic change we made after we saw the reception to KIBORG: Arena, it feels relieving to announce next month’s launch,” said Dmitry Kachkov, Head of Sobaka Studio. “Can you make it out of The Last Ticket alive?”

KIBORG launches on Wednesday, April 30, 2025 on PlayStation 4 & 5, Xbox Series X|S and One, and PC via Steam. Preorders open for the Xbox versions today, March 31, 2025.

For more information, wishlist the game on Steam, follow Sobaka Studio on Twitter/X, YouTube, join the Discord server, and visit the official website for more updates.

About Sobaka Studio

Sobaka Studio is an indie game developer. Previously released titles include top-down shooter Redeemer and 9 Monkeys of Shaolin – two beat’em ups with epic combat. They are currently working on the twin-stick shooter REMEDIUM available now in Early Access and time survival game REMEDIUM: Sentinels, which both share one grim post-apocalyptic Renaissance setting. Their next title is KIBORG, the rogue-lite with brutal, cybernetic-enhanced combat.

Roguelite Shooter ‘ObliteratorX’ Wanders Post Apocalyptic Australia on PC this Summer 

Blast gnarly mutants in a bloody blend of roguelite and tower defense combat

Tasmania, Australia – March 31, 2025 ObliteratorX, the apocalyptic run and gun shooter from developer Webbysoft and publisher Armor Games Studios, scavenges for survival on PC via Steam Summer 2025 for $9.99 USD.

Mutated monsters have taken over a dystopian echo of The Land Down Under, and the only solution? Over-the-top obliteration!. Craft a fully customizable clone via the detailed character creator, or bare it all as a skinless drone. Conquer Aussie-inspired levels like The Knackered Airfield, a Radioactive Forest, and other sun-baked locales to reclaim the continent. 

Squash gruesome hordes of pesky Hobblers, Scremus, and Monklets shambling towards emitters in each level. Run and gun through enemy waves with an arsenal of pistols, rifles, and shotguns. Master the weaponry, each with distinctive rarity level and perks, ranging from elemental abilities to swift reloading.  

Paint each level red, scavenging for resources, blueprints, and weapons. Deploy drones to fortify defenses, defeat incoming foes, and search for items. Rebuild Australia with an ensemble of allies, including the rugged mechanic Skeggles, AI companion Alfred, and wasteland trader Cuz. 

ObliteratorX is a complete tonal shift from the titles I’ve developed in the past, such as the wholesome puzzle adventure Bilkins’ Folly,” said Luke Webster, lead developer at Webbysoft. “It’s quite different, but who doesn’t love mowing down waves of enemies, guns blazing, to the tune of heavy metal?” 

ObliteratorX arrives Summer 2025 on PC via Steam, with Steam Deck compatibility for $9.99 USD. Available languages include English, Simplified Chinese and German. Follow Armor Games Studios on Bluesky, and Twitter/X for the latest updates.

Survive Twisted Card-Based RPG ‘Sultan’s Game’ with Malleable Morals Today on PC

HANGZHOU, China – March 31, 2025 – Sultan’s Game, the twisted narrative-driven card-based RPG that crowdfunded over $275,000 in its first week from developer Double Cross Studio and publisher 2P Games, arrives on PC via Steam today.

Sink into sin as the Sultan’s favored courtier, indulging his wicked whims to stave off execution. Every seven days, draw from one of four depraved card categories that command vile deeds. Pursue forbidden desires with Carnality, squander riches with reckless Extravagance, brave deadly exploits through Conquer, or offer up human lives when fate deals Bloodshed. Fail to fulfill a card’s demand within the week and suffer fatal consequences.

Roam a vast realm, from shadowy alleys and smoky brothels to the opulence of the Sultan’s Palace and the sanctity of grand Temples. Endure encounters with savage dogs and roaring lions… or face off against unholy demons and draconian dragons. Gather resource cards like Gold, Convictions, and Nobles to charm citizens and bend the royal court’s opinion. Sharpen the mind, amass gear, complete quests, and rally allies to become an influential force.

Seize control within the Sultan’s cruel game and ascend as a cunning manipulator. What starts as a deadly trial may become a gateway to power and influence. A political rival might serve nicely as the offering for a Bloodshed card, while a Carnality demand could transform a coveted figure into a devoted spouse. Make calculated decisions, as every extreme choice risks alienating close allies, leading to a stalemate in this twisted game.

Become fully immersed in Sultan’s Game’s rich narrative inspired by One Thousand and One Nights, brought to life through a lavish, baroque hand-drawn art style echoing the medieval era. Weave a tangled web of characters with over 1MM words and chase down over 50 multiple endings. Shape the Sultan’s destiny from within the boundaries of his twisted trials: pledge loyalty as a sycophant, orchestrate his downfall, dream of a utopia… or call upon ancient gods for erasure.

“It’s been a long journey, but we’re incredibly excited to finally launch Sultan’s Game,” said Yin Li, Producer and Developer at Double Cross Studio. “Whether you’re discovering the game for the first time or have supported us from the beginning, there are many memorable adventures ahead. We’re truly grateful for all the encouragement and feedback we’ve received along the way, and we look forward to sharing more exciting updates soon.”

Sultan’s Game is now available on PC via Steam for $24.99 USD alongside a 10% launch discount for the next two weeks. Language support includes English, Japanese, Traditional Chinese, and Simplified Chinese.
