Atari and Fabraz have announced that a Bubsy 4D demo is now available on the Nintendo eShop for Nintendo Switch 2 and Nintendo Switch.
The wise-cracking bobcat is back, this time on a mission to take back the Golden Fleece from the BaaBots who snatched it from him. You will need to jump, glide and roll your way through fabric and craft-themed levels across alien planets before toppling BaaBot bosses in your efforts to do so.
With a “pawsitively funky” soundtrack from Fat Bard as your backdrop, you can dress Bubsy up in new outfits, collect hidden blueprints to unlock new moves, and race against other players’ ghost data in online time trials.
The publisher has outlined the game’s key features, which include:
- Explore intergalactic, craft-themed worlds, each ending in a BaaBot boss battle
- New hairball form allows you to roll, bounce, and launch your way around
- An expressive platforming moveset supports both beginner and advanced levels of play
- Spend yarn to purrchase stylish new outfits, or collect a hidden blueprint in each level to unlock new moves and upgrades
- Tackle each level’s time trial, upload your best run, and race against other players’ ghost data
- Chat with a cast of furmiliar friends including Terri, Terry, Virgil, and Oblivia
- Pawsitively funky soundtrack by Fat Bard, incorporating elements of jazz, big band, electro-swing and more
Bubsy 4D will be released at retail and digitally on the Nintendo eShop for Nintendo Switch worldwide on 22 May 2026. Priced at £44.99 ($49.99), the physical edition will include “a game cartridge, tuck-in exterior box, user manual, poster and artbook.”
