Flynn’s Arcade and Catcade Games have confirmed a release date for Freddy Farmer on Nintendo Switch.
In this 16-bit retro arcade-style game, Freddy’s daughter has been kidnapped by an evil dragon that lives on top of an abandoned castle.

The publisher has outlined the game’s key features, which include:
- High-quality pixel art graphics with excellent 16-bit animations.
- 5 different Worlds with 7 levels in each of them.
- More than 25 types of enemies with their own characteristics.

- Galleries and unlockable extras.
- 3 game modes, each one more challenging than the last.
- Various cameos and references to cinema, literature and video games.
