Teslagrad is Coming to Nintendo Switch, Playable at Tokyo Game Show

BERGEN, Norway – The Tesla Tower has been spotted on a new location. Prepare yourself for the magnetic adventure of Teslagrad now launching on Switch. The indie hit that has sold more than 1.6 million copies worldwide will be published on the newest Nintendo console by Japanese publisher Circle, and will be part of their booth at Tokyo Game Show, from September 21 to 24 (Hall 08 – S01). The exact release date is yet to be decided.

Set in a steampunk-inspired vision of old Europe, lose yourself in Teslagrad’s non-linear world of over 100 beautiful hand-drawn environments and challenging levels. Teslagrad has been praised by fans and critics alike for its beautiful art style, its clever silent storytelling and challenging gameplay. The title has also been nominated for two Nordic Game awards, including Best Game of the Year, and a Unity Award nomination for Best 2D Visuals.

Teslagrad Key Features

  • Complex puzzles! Put your sense of logic to the test and cleverly manipulate the world around you using electricity and magnetism.
  • Explore! Make your way through rich 2D hand-drawn surroundings as you journey into – and beyond- Tesla Tower, picking up use amazing new items as you go.
  • Visual storytelling! Tired of all those words in your video games? Have no fear, Teslagrad features not a single snippet of text or squeak of dialogue. Everything is purely visual, and the entire story is told through what you see (and sometimes what you don’t see).

  • No disruptions! That means no loading screens, no GUI, no cutscenes. Just the game and you.
