Chibig, the Spanish developer known for beloved indie titles, has officially announced the upcoming release of Mai: Child of Ages for both Nintendo Switch 2 and Nintendo Switch.

This highly anticipated adventure platformer is set to debut on the Nintendo Switch on September 25, 2025, with the Nintendo Switch 2 version to follow after its initial launch.

Mai: Child of Ages brings players into a sprawling, time-bending adventure set in a world forever changed by the Last Great War.

Gamers will guide the protagonist, Mai, alongside her grandfather, unraveling enigmas that bridge ancient civilizations with dystopian futures.

Players will manipulate time and space, exploring the intricate web that connects the past to unforeseen futures, using the Sacred Plant—a mystical artifact that enables such travel. In an official statement, Chibig described the journey as an opportunity for players to accompany Mai as she navigates a fractured world, seeking both her own identity and the secrets behind extraordinary beings threatening universal harmony.

This narrative unfolds as players harness the arcane energy of the Uroboro Stone to master ancient dungeons and reshape the flow of history itself. Mai: Child of Ages features precision platforming and dynamic, technical combat, including melee and ranged attacks.

Key gameplay innovations include the ability to play through the various stages of Mai's life from childhood to adolescence, offering unique abilities and perspectives as the story evolves.

The game also emphasizes player choice and replayability, boasting over 20 hours of content that traverses lost temples, abandoned factories, and other visually stunning environments. Fans of cooperative gameplay can look forward to a dedicated Coop Mode.

This feature allows a second player to seamlessly join the adventure by embodying the primordial spirit, with the option to control enemies and assist during combat sequences, adding a new layer of strategy and teamwork. Mai: Child of Ages will be released digitally via the Nintendo eShop at a price point of $14.99, making it an accessible option for Nintendo Switch and Switch 2 owners.

Chibig’s reputation for designing immersive worlds and carefully crafted narratives signals strong anticipation within the gaming community for their latest project. With its blend of time-traveling puzzles, platforming, and cooperative elements, Mai: Child of Ages is positioned to be a standout title on both the current and next-generation Nintendo platforms.
