Two Tribes explains why Swap This! disappeared from mobile platforms, and the jump to Switch

GN Version 5.0

Swap This! was released on mobile devices a number of years ago, but it disappeared almost as soon as it went live. The game has been missing in action ever since, but that's about to change with the upcoming Switch port. In an interview with Nintendo Life, Two Tribes explains what happens to the mobile version, and why they decided to give the game a second chance on Switch.

Unfortunately we ran into a problem with the game's publisher, which resulted in the game only being available for a few weeks before we pulled it. Over the last several years we've been toying with the idea of releasing the game again in an updated fashion, and the Switch was the perfect opportunity to do so.

Swap This! asks players to bring their best gaming skills to the table, which fits the Switch audience perfectly. It just feels great to play the game in your hands on the Switch's responsive touchscreen.
