First up was Hades, the Greek mythology-inspired roguelike dungeon crawler from Supergiant Games. Hades sees you trying to escape the underworld by wielding mythical weapons and allying with the Greek pantheon. It’s already available on PC but will make its debut later this year on Switch, with cross-save support also confirmed between the two platforms.
Spritfarer, a game where you pilot a ship that’s ferrying dead spirits to the afterlife, is also making its way to Switch. Players can customise their boat, make new friends and explore an “imaginary world.” It’s available to download right now on the Switch eShop.

We also got a look at “wholesome action-adventure” and community-rebuilding game Garden Story, which is coming to Switch sometime next year. Underwater exploration title Subnautica and its sequel Subnautica: Below Zero are scheduled to make their way to Nintendo’s hybrid console in 2021 as well.

Other highlights included confirmation of a co-op mode for Untitled Goose Game coming in September; India-set action-adventure title Raji: An Ancient Epic, which takes inspiration from Hindu and Balinese mythology (out now); “quaint management” game Bear and Breakfast (2021), in which you (a bear) host guests in a rebuilt bed and breakfast; colourful dungeon crawler Torchlight 3 (autumn 2020); and mind-bending puzzler Manifold Garden, which is out now.

You can catch up on all the rest of today’s big reveals in the complete Nintendo Indie World Showcase video above.
