Frost Earth Studio has confirmed that Tolem, a 3D adventure platformer built around elemental transformations, will launch on Nintendo Switch on July 23, 2026.
The game will be sold digitally on the Nintendo eShop for $14.99/€14.99, with a 20 percent discount available during launch week.
An official trailer is available from the developer.
Project overview
Tolem puts players in control of a small, amnesiac robot who awakens in a world overrun by hostile machines.
The developer frames the core loop around elemental transformations that substantially change playstyle.
In clear, journalistic terms: Frost Earth Studio describes Tolem as a title in which each elemental form alters movement, combat, gliding, and exploration, turning every new ability into a distinct way to approach challenges and uncover secrets.
Gameplay and structure
The studio says Tolem tasks players with cleansing four corrupted worlds, each populated by mechanical foes, platforming sections, hidden collectibles, and environment-based puzzles.
Players will unlock and master multiple elemental forms to access previously unreachable areas, complete missions, and gather collectible bolts.
A companion character named Tixy guides the player through the narrative and gameplay progression.
Combat and boss design
Frost Earth Studio highlights multi-phase boss battles as a focal point of late-game challenge.
These encounters are designed to test movement, timing, and a player’s mastery of Tolem’s transformations.
The developer positions these escalating, multi-stage fights as key moments that require players to shift strategies as encounters evolve.
Release, pricing and availability
Tolem releases exclusively on Nintendo Switch on July 23, 2026 and will be available digitally via the Nintendo eShop for $14.99/€14.99.
The title will launch with a 20 percent discount during its first week on sale.
For players tracking Nintendo Switch indie releases, Tolem represents another original platform-focused effort from Frost Earth Studio, notable for its emphasis on transformation-driven gameplay and interconnected world design.
Watch the official trailer for a first look at environments, transformations, and boss encounters ahead of the July release.
