Back in November 2022, a German rating for Trek to Yomi on Switch surfaced. Finally, today sees the game officially announced for Switch release, and it’s set to launch on January 30th, 2023. Trek to Yomi is a captivating cinematic journey from the creative partnership of Leonard Menchiari (THE ETERNAL CASTLE) and Flying Wild Hog (Shadow Warrior). ​ ​Experience an enchanting tale of romance, duty and death as lone swordsman Hiroki seeks to honour a vow to his dying master and protect the people he loves. A love letter to classic Japanese cinema, Trek to Yomi marries sumptuous monochromatic visuals with classic 2D combat and gentle puzzle-solving to create a rich, atmospheric adventure.

​Stunning vistas and striking movement in the spirit of classic samurai film combine to create a true cinematic experience. ​Engage multiple enemies at once with an intuitive combat system balancing careful attack and defense using the traditional weapons of the samurai. ​Inspired by classical Japanese folklore, follow the tumultuous life of Hiroki during his heroic fall and emotional return against the forces of evil. ​The dramatic and tender story is set against a memorable score featuring idiomatic Japanese instruments accurate to the Edo period.
