Abzû Coming To Switch At The End Of November
Fans of ocean exploration games, which number higher than you would think but fewer than you might hope, definitely took note of Abzû when it released two years ago. Developer Giant Squid games created a fairly stunning and altogether calming ocean full of flora and fauna for players to peruse at their leisure. Now the game is coming to Switch, so you can take the experience with you on the go.
The news comes from a tweet from Giant Squid, which not only announces the game, but gives fairly firm date of November 29 for release. That's roughly two weeks away, meaning you won't have to wait too long to go on that diving trip.
A lot of ABZÛ fans have told us they think the game would be great on the Nintendo Switch. We heard you, and we agree- it’s a perfect fit! ABZÛ on Nintendo Switch will be out REALLY SOON! Nov. 29! 😆

You can find our original review from 2016 for Abzû right here, when it originally launched on the PlayStation 4. Now if only we could also get Endless Ocean on modern systems, too.
