Bendy and the Dark Revival Confirmed for Nintendo Switch with Physical Release in September 2026

Bendy and the Dark Revival, the eagerly awaited sequel to the acclaimed survival horror title Bendy and the Ink Machine, is officially heading to the Nintendo Switch.

Announced today, this fan-favorite franchise will not only arrive on Nintendo’s versatile console via the eShop, but will also be available as a physical release.

The physical edition is set to be distributed by Silver Lining Interactive, with launch kicking off on September 26, 2026. Developed by the creative minds at Joey Drew Studios, Bendy and the Dark Revival thrusts players back into an eerie, ink-splattered world.

This time, you take on the role of Audrey, an animator trapped in a twisted and nightmarish version of her familiar studio.

The game builds on the chilling atmosphere and unique art style that made its predecessor a cult hit, while introducing new gameplay features and expanded narrative depth. Bendy and the Dark Revival is a first-person survival horror adventure that challenges players to utilize stealth, wit, and strength to escape the dangers lurking within the ruined halls of Joey Drew Studios.

As Audrey, gamers will navigate shadowy corridors, solve environmental puzzles, and face off against a host of grotesque ink-corrupted enemies.

The ongoing threat of the relentless Ink Demon ups the tension, demanding quick thinking and resourcefulness at every turn. In an official summary provided by the developers, Bendy and the Dark Revival is highlighted as a "fight for survival." Players are urged to sneak past lurking horrors, upgrade their combat abilities using the transformative power of ink, and unravel the twisted mysteries embedded within the decaying studio.

Each encounter pits them against a variety of nightmarish foes, from hulking monsters to stealthy stalkers, culminating in a nail-biting confrontation with the all-powerful Ink Demon. For players invested in the expanding Bendy universe, more is on the horizon.

Joey Drew Studios has further announced that Bendy: Lone Wolf, a separate title in the series, is also planned for Nintendo Switch in 2025. Bendy and the Dark Revival’s arrival on Nintendo Switch—especially with a physical edition—marks a significant milestone for the franchise, broadening its reach to new audiences and longtime fans alike.

With its intense survival horror gameplay, rich narrative, and upcoming companion releases, the Bendy saga continues to be a standout in the indie horror gaming landscape.
