34BigThings has officially confirmed the release date for Carmageddon: Rogue Shift, bringing its unique blend of roguelite vehicular combat to Nintendo Switch 2.
The much-anticipated title is set to launch digitally worldwide via the Nintendo eShop on February 6, 2026. Carmageddon: Rogue Shift rides on the legacy of the notorious Carmageddon series, known for its over-the-top action and chaotic driving experiences.
This new entry, developed by the experienced team at 34BigThings, introduces players to an adrenaline-packed post-apocalyptic world where survival hinges on skillful driving and all-out destruction. Set against a backdrop where humanity fights for survival, Rogue Shift places players in the midst of smoldering skylines by day and streets overrun by relentless zombie hordes — known as the Wasted — by night.
The only path to freedom lies in participating in deadly underground races called the Carmageddon, with the ultimate prize being a chance to escape to the last safe haven beyond the mountains. According to 34BigThings' official description on the Nintendo eShop, "Carmageddon: Rogue Shift merges the franchise's iconic vehicular carnage with contemporary roguelite depth and smooth arcade controls.
Players can expect a distinct experience with every run, featuring stylish drifts, strategic loadouts, and constant opportunities for spectacular moments on the road." Key Features in Carmageddon: Rogue Shift include: - **Roguelite Campaign**: Navigate branching maps that offer diverse event paths, shops, and challenging bosses each time you play. - **15 Upgradable Vehicles**: Command a variety of front-, rear-, and all-wheel-drive tanks, buggies, and hot-rods, all with dynamic visual damage systems. - **13 Weapon Classes**: Wield an arsenal that spans shotguns, miniguns, missile racks, railguns, lasers, and more for maximum devastation. - **80+ Perks**: Stackable perk synergies allow players to customize vehicles into formidable war machines. - **Dynamic Weather and Day-Night Cycle**: Encounter shifting conditions, with rain-drenched roads and the transition of dawn burning away post-apocalyptic fog. - **Elite and Boss Events**: Face off against dangerous corrupted patrol units and massive boss war-rigs. - **Permanent Progression System**: Accumulate Beatcoins to unlock new cars, weapons, and perks through the Black Market between runs. Carmageddon: Rogue Shift represents a significant new chapter for both the series and for Nintendo Switch 2’s expanding lineup.
By introducing innovative gameplay mechanics and rich content, 34BigThings aims to deliver an experience that both pays homage to the franchise’s roots and appeals to fans of modern roguelite action games.
