Indie studio Onibi has officially announced their plans to bring Tomo: Endless Blue to Nintendo Switch 2 alongside the previously announced PC version. A new teaser video has been released, offering a glimpse into the game’s platforming gameplay.
Tomo: Endless Blue revolves around the exhilarating experience of embarking on a vast oceanic journey to discover and capture adorable creatures, ranging from familiar companions to rare finds. Players will sail the Endless Blue, a world filled with mysterious islands, peculiar towns, ancient ruins, and over 150 Tomo to collect and befriend.
The game features procedural generation to ensure that no two islands are identical. So each journey with your creatures can lead to diverse stories, characters, discoveries, and adventures that other players may never encounter.
Tomo, though, are more than collectibles; they are cherished companions. Players can bring them home, construct habitats for them, and build island settlements centered around their beloved creatures.
Benjamin Devienne, Founder and CEO of Onibi, expressed the community’s anticipation for the Nintendo Switch 2 version since the campaign’s inception:
“”The community has been asking about Nintendo Switch 2 since the first days of the campaign. Tomo is about setting sail to find rare creatures, bringing them home, and building a world around them. That fantasy feels very natural on Nintendo hardware, and we wanted to celebrate the final days of the Kickstarter by confirming that bringing Tomo to Switch 2 is part of our plan.”
The Nintendo Switch 2 version, however, does remain subject to Nintendo’s approval, so Onibi has made sure to let us know that it is not guaranteed at this point. Onibi has also confirmed plans for Mac and Linux versions, and players who prefer to own and play the game outside of locked storefronts will have access to DRM-free alternatives.
Tomo: Endless Blue is currently wrapping up its Kickstarter Campaign, which completed its initial goal of $100,000 in less than 60 hours and has now surpassed $170,000 from over 1,400 backers.
