Nom Nom Apocalypse Heads to Nintendo Switch: Release Set for Late 2025

Nom Nom Apocalypse, the frenetic co-op shooter known for its culinary chaos, is officially making its way to Nintendo Switch.

Developer Deadleaf Games confirmed today that fans can anticipate the game's arrival on Nintendo Switch and additional console platforms by the end of 2025, expanding its reach beyond PC and inviting new players into its riotous world of mutant food monsters and fast-paced action. Nom Nom Apocalypse first gained attention for its distinctive premise: players, taking the role of trigger-happy chefs, must defend a metropolis overrun with monstrous edible adversaries.

From cheeseburger brutes hurling molten cheese to cupcakes with claws, the game offers a tongue-in-cheek take on the top-down shooter genre.

According to a spokesperson for Deadleaf Games, "Our team wanted to deliver a blend of frantic shooting action and comedic culinary creativity, where every run is a new, delicious disaster." The Nintendo Switch release of Nom Nom Apocalypse will include all content from the original PC version, with gameplay rooted in fast, cooperative action.

Players can team up in local two-player couch co-op mode, battling through escalating waves of sentient snacks and oversized desserts.

The game's arsenal stands out for its diversity: over 20 food-themed weapons are available, ranging from the mustard shotgun to the crossbow fork and even pizza disc launchers.

These quirky tools add both strategic depth and humor to each session. Replayability is a core strength of Nom Nom Apocalypse.

Its procedural level generation ensures every run throws new obstacles and enemy patterns at players.

The game features five hand-crafted thematic levels and over 30 unique enemy types, from radioactive hot dogs to rampaging donuts.

Unlockable perks, such as enhanced trap resistance or improved melee defense, supplement the gameplay, keeping veteran and new players challenged. Another highlight is the roster of six playable chefs, each bringing unique abilities and flavor to the fight for culinary survival.

Whether navigating diners, supermarkets, or food factories, players will face an ever-shifting buffet of threats, designed to test both reflexes and teamwork.

As Deadleaf Games notes, "Bringing Nom Nom Apocalypse to Nintendo Switch is about sharing our love for over-the-top co-op action with a wider audience.

Switch’s local multiplayer capabilities are a perfect match for the game's couch co-op mayhem." The announcement follows consistent positive reception for Nom Nom Apocalypse's humor, creative weapons, and roguelite replay value across other platforms.

Further details about the Switch eShop price, physical release, and firm launch date are expected in the coming months.

For now, fans eager for more Nintendo Switch news and updates on Nom Nom Apocalypse should stay tuned to official channels and upcoming Nintendo Direct presentations.
