The Switch 2 edition will bring Slow Bros’ handcrafted, 3D‑scanned stop‑motion look to Nintendo’s new console as a digital‑only release.

Overview

  • Slow Bros announced Wednesday, October 14, 2026, that Harold Halibut will launch on Nintendo Switch 2 on November 12, 2026.
  • The Switch 2 edition is confirmed as a digital download, which means there will be no physical cartridge at launch.
  • Harold Halibut first reached PlayStation 5, Xbox Series and PC in April 2024 and is a fully voiced, narrative adventure set aboard a city‑sized ark ship.
  • The game’s visuals come from real sets and puppets that were 3D scanned into the game to create a tactile stop‑motion style that Slow Bros emphasizes throughout its marketing.
  • Bringing the title to Switch 2 extends the game’s platform reach and could introduce its handcrafted aesthetic to handheld players and collectors who follow console launches.
