Hello Everyone!
Today we’re excited to announce that Besiege is coming to Nintendo Switch and Playstation 4 & 5!
The release dates are a little complicated, but here goes:
NA/EU/AUNZ
Nintendo Switch - 12th of September
Playstation 4 & 5 - October/November (Undetermined date)
Asia
Nintendo Switch - 12th of December
Playstation 4 & 5 - 12th of December

Watch on YouTube
Playism will be offering physical versions of the game in Japan (and possibly other Asian regions later on), you can pre-order right now!
We did try to secure a physical release for other regions as well, but we had a lot of trouble finding a partner who’d be willing to publish physical copies for a game that’s already released.
Besiege on Switch
Besiege on Nintendo Switch offers a new way of playing the classic game, with the portability of the Switch allowing you to enjoy the creative sandbox anywhere, anytime. The intuitive controls and touch-screen capabilities of the Switch have been seamlessly integrated, offering new ways to interact with and build your machines. Place blocks with a tap of your finger or use the drag god tool to smash enemies and fling your machine about.
Touch screen controls work with the entire user interface and also allow you to control the camera. You can even touch a cannon to make it fire!
Please note, that due to technical limitations, the console versions of Besiege do not include Multiplayer or the Level Editor.
We’re excited to see what you all make of this latest installment of Besiege!
We’re also doing a giveaway in our community Discord, for instructions please see the announcements channel!
Cheers everyone!
