Dear Reader:
Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath Switch release date might be coming soon
We've seen everyone in the #NintendoSwitch community talking about Boost Mode, so we thought we'd let you know that Stranger is on his way, and he's using Boost Mode to get here faster 😉 pic.twitter.com/MlHd9Qa33g

Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath was originally planned for the Wii U, but that was scrapped in favor of a Switch release back in Sept. 2018. Here we are in Aug. 2019, and we still don't have a release date. The good news is, it seems like that might be changing soon. The official Oddworld Twitter account made reference to the game hitting Switch, so perhaps the release isn't far off at all.
The tweet references the game's upcoming release with a pun about the Switch's "Boost Mode," which is a mode on Switch that lets devs get some extra juice out of the hardware's CPU. Whether this reference was made as a joke, or Stranger's Wrath will actually use "Boost Mode" remains to be seen.
