The Switch edition of was developed specifically for the Nintendo platform. The development team were committed to creating the best possible native experience by optimizing visuals and performance. This involved many technical changes to the game which included, reworking every character model, environmental object, and all foliage across the game, as well as completely rebuilding the lighting engine.

“We’re incredibly excited to finally offer a Life is Strange experience on the Nintendo Switch, enabling players to enjoy Life is Strange: True Colors at home or on the go.” said Jon Brooke, Co-Head of Studio at Square Enix External Studios. “This is the most advanced game in the series, so it was important for us to maintain a high standard of visual quality, performance and optimisation when bringing the game to a new platform. We’re delighted with how the Switch version turned out and we can’t wait to expand our wonderful community of players even more with this release.”

Those looking to pick up the game in a physical manner will be able to do so starting February 25th, no reason was given as to why the delay is so long.
