Grime 2, the follow-up to Clover Bite's 2021 metroidvania Grime, is listed on Nintendo's eShop for both Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2 with a confirmed release date of November 27, 2026.
The eShop entries identify the title as a digital download for both consoles and outline core gameplay systems and feature counts ahead of launch.
Background and platforms
Grime launched in 2021 to critical attention for its tight, artful combat and distinctive visual design.
The sequel continues that lineage: Clover Bite returns to a new setting in the Grime universe and the listings make clear the game will ship on both the current Nintendo Switch and the next-generation Nintendo Switch 2 hardware.
The eShop entries specify a November 27, 2026 release and note the title will be distributed digitally through Nintendo's storefront.
What the eShop listing says
According to the official eShop overview, players take on the role of a Formless, an art mimic capable of absorbing defeated foes and shaping them into usable molds.
The listing describes the sequel as expanding combat intensity and environmental interaction while placing players in a new and surreal world within the Grime universe.
In clear, journalistic terms, the eShop copy explains that the player will absorb enemies to create molds that can be used for special attacks, projectile firing, stunning foes, or summoning allies.
Environmental hazards and opportunities play an active role in combat, and a parry-and-grasp mechanic lets the player use hand-like tendrils to parry attacks or draw enemies in for absorption.
The listing also highlights a lived-in game world populated by unique civilizations and characters to meet and converse with.
