Alice in Wonder Underland AIWU Sets Global Digital Launch Date for Nintendo Switch
Exploration-driven adventure games have found a welcoming home on the Nintendo Switch, and fans of the genre now have another anticipated title to look forward to.
Regista, YMCAT, and Suzume Takanashi have jointly announced the worldwide release date for Alice in Wonder Underland AIWU, confirming the game will be available digitally via the Nintendo eShop for Nintendo Switch on April 23, 2026.
Alice in Wonder Underland AIWU invites players to embody Alice, a protagonist who awakens in an enigmatic room before stepping into a world that blends a sense of nostalgia with unfamiliar wonder.
Throughout her journey, Alice traverses more than 30 distinct, interconnected areas designed to encourage curiosity, discovery, and meaningful interaction.
This non-linear adventure places a premium on freeform exploration, allowing players to progress at their own pace while seeking out secrets hidden across a richly detailed landscape.
A unique twist to Alice’s story is her inexplicable loss of voice.
Despite this challenge, she finds companionship in Noir Bunny, an empathetic creature capable of understanding her thoughts and supporting her on her quest.
The presence of Noir Bunny adds unique depth both to gameplay and to the unfolding narrative.
Gameplay systems are robust and thoughtfully crafted.
Alice in Wonder Underland AIWU features a costume-based progression mechanic that allows players to collect and equip various outfits; each costume provides access to new areas and opens up further opportunities for exploration.
Unusual artifacts gathered along the way are recorded in an in-game encyclopedia, highlighting the game's commitment to rewarding attentive players.
Room customization enables a personal touch, as furnishings collected can be used to tailor Alice’s space.
In addition to exploration, players will encounter a variety of puzzles, mini-games, and interactive events designed to diversify the experience and keep engagement high.
One notable gameplay mechanic is the Pocket Watch, which lets players revisit previously explored locations instantly.
According to developer statements, this feature was implemented to make backtracking seamless, encourage experimentation, and remove punitive barriers often associated with exploration-driven titles.
The developers and publisher have outlined key features, including over 30 uniquely themed areas, non-linear exploratory freedom, a progression system based on collectable costumes, diverse mini-games and puzzles, an extensive collectibles and encyclopedia system, customizable player rooms, and the memorable companion character Noir Bunny.
With its digital-only release on the Nintendo eShop, Alice in Wonder Underland AIWU continues the Switch’s impressive lineup of adventure titles.
