The game, which launched last year as an Apple Arcade exclusive, is described as a “love letter” to games of the developers’ past, and features boss battles, puzzles and dungeons to explore. It’s set 1000 years before the events of the original Oceanhorn, which also started out life as a mobile game before eventually making its way onto PC and consoles, including on Switch, Xbox One and even the PS Vita.

It's been a long time since Hero took a holiday, and on August 11th, we're sending him off to Kyoto to relax and meet some friends. Rumor has it that they're planning a surprise – Let's wait and see! #Oceanhorn2 pic.twitter.com/leAFsbWWAl

As you can see in the above tweet from the developer, a ticket has been prepared for the game’s protagonist, Hero Arcadian, for a trip from the studio’s Helsinki home to Kyoto, which just happens to be the location of Nintendo’s headquarters, on 11 August.

It also mentions how Hero will be meeting some old friends who may be “planning a surprise.” Given the series’ inspiration and the fact the first game is already available on Nintendo’s hybrid console, a possible Oceanhorn 2 Switch announcement seems likely.

Of course, without official confirmation from either party, this is all just speculation for now. We’ll just have to wait until later this summer to know for sure.

Did you play the original game? Would you like to see Oceanhorn 2 on Switch?
