In a surprising turn of events, Australian studio Drop Bear Bytes has clarified that the Nintendo Switch version of their post-apocalyptic RPG, Broken Roads, is still in development. False reports had previously circulated, claiming that the Switch version had been canceled. The team took to Twitter to set the record straight, emphasizing that the game’s release date remains unchanged.
The apocalypse looms large as Broken Roads prepares for its debut. Developed by Victorian studio Drop Bear Bytes, this narrative-driven isometric RPG promises a unique experience set in the desolate, dust-strewn landscapes of post-apocalyptic Western Australia. With a deep morality system and engaging gameplay, it’s a title that has captured the attention of gamers worldwide.
The Switch Controversy
Initial reports suggested that the Nintendo Switch version of Broken Roads had met an untimely demise. Outlets like Gematsu erroneously claimed that the game’s Switch release had been canceled. However, the truth emerged: the Switch version is very much alive and will follow its counterparts on other platforms.
The Dev Team’s Response
In a statement reminiscent of Mark Twain’s famous quote, the developers addressed the confusion: “The reports of my death are greatly exaggerated.” On March 22, 2024, Drop Bear Bytes adjusted the game’s release date, allowing players to dive into the tactical shenanigans of post-apocalyptic Australia from April 10, 2024, on Steam, GoG, PlayStation, and Xbox. The Nintendo Switch version, unaffected by the false rumors, will arrive in due course.
As the dust settles, gamers can rest assured that Broken Roads remains on track for its multi-platform release. The moral compass awaits, guiding players through a world where choices matter and survival hangs in the balance.
