Chibig has confirmed a release date for its fantasy coming-of-age adventure game Mika and the Witch’s Mountain on Nintendo Switch.
An aspiring witch with a half-formed set of powers, in order to complete her training Mika must help out the townspeople that live at the bottom of the mountain. Bringing them packages on her magical broom, she will earn her stripes roaming around the island – earning upgrades with each successful delivery she makes.
The developer has outlined the game’s key features, which include:
- Perfect delivery, best rating: There is an open position at the local delivery company for anyone who wants to earn a few coins by perfectly (don’t wet or break) delivering packages for everyone on the island. Wait, you need a new broom to take you to the top of the mountain? That’s a fluke!
- What else can you do? Delivering packages will keep you busy most of the time, but this island offers so much more. Have you ever wondered what it would be like to run through ancient platforming-ruins, explore the heart of the mountain like in a Zelda-style dungeon, or simply fish on a magic broom? You’ll have to see it with your own eyes!
- A mini-open world at your reach: A whole island within your reach (well, your broom’s) to discover more and more about the world around you and about yourself. With each broom upgrade you will be able to reach higher and higher places, meet new characters and collect treasures until you reach the great truth that the mountain holds.
- Outfits, trails and collectibles: Get all of Mika’s skins and trails for her magic broom to create your favorite outfit and fill your haul with all kinds of unimaginable treasures that you’ll get by making perfect deliveries and exploring every nook and cranny.
Mika and the Witch’s Mountain will be released digitally on the Nintendo eShop for Nintendo Switch worldwide on 21 August 2024.
