Old Skies Launches on Nintendo Switch Next Week

Sure thing, let’s dive into this—sort of like falling down the rabbit hole of time. So, Wadjet Eye Games just dropped the big news: Old Skies is coming to Nintendo Switch. And boom, they gave us a date, finally. It’s kinda like they knew we’ve been hanging on the edge of our seats this whole time.

So here’s the deal. You get to be Fia Quinn, right? She’s this time agent working for ChronoZen. Sounds pretty intense, like a job where you better not hit snooze on the alarm. Anyway, Fia’s got this gig where she babysits, uh, accompanies these seven time-travelers who somehow can afford to kick it back in history. Anything from just wanting to soak it in to, I don’t know, tying up loose ends. I mean, imagine going back in time because you forgot your charger or something equally absurd.

But yeah, you gotta keep them content but also in check. Like, don’t break history, please. You’re not there to start a butterfly effect that makes dinosaurs president. Or are you? Sometimes rules are fuzzy like an old sweater.

Okay, let’s talk features. They’re saying you’ll hit up these seven historical spots. Imagine tiptoeing through Prohibition-era speakeasies or getting caught in the chaos of the Gilded Age. And yikes, they even take you to September 11th’s morning. Heavy stuff. And check this, the graphics are like, super high-res. Seems like they turned up the pixels from their last game—something about being three times as sharp. Not that anyone’s counting pixels while time tripping, right?

Puzzles, too. Brain-benders that’ll need some funky temporal thinking. Reminds me of that time I couldn’t solve my Rubik’s Cube. Only now, with the stakes cranked way up. Oh, and they threw in death as a feature. But hey, time loops. So what if you bite it? Just hit rewind.

The music’s by Thomas Regin. If you know, you know. The dude’s got it, kind of like if Mozart and some cool jazz guy had a jam session. Plus, they crammed in full voice acting with their biggest cast. I’m imagining a room full of actors shouting through time.

Anyway, May 27, 2025—mark your calendars, or engrave it in stone, whatever suits your style. You’ll find it on the Nintendo eShop, ready to download like a futuristic present from past-me to future-you.

Maybe check out the trailer if you’re the visual type. Or if you just like hitting play and zoning out. But yeah, that’s the scoop. Can’t say I didn’t warn you.
