Landfall, the acclaimed indie developer, continues to expand its Nintendo Switch portfolio with the release of Haste, now available on Nintendo Switch 2 across most major regions as of today.

Known for their innovative approach to accessible multiplayer action, Landfall’s latest title brings a new level of speed and intensity to the Nintendo Switch ecosystem.

Haste is a high-speed, third-person running game set within a universe on the brink of collapse.

Players dash through a succession of procedurally generated worlds, racing against time and the imminent end of existence itself.

The game supports both single player and online cooperative modes, allowing friends to team up in their quest to outpace the impending cosmic disaster.

At its core, Haste challenges players to master fluid movement, adapt to dynamically shifting levels, and utilize an extensive arsenal of abilities and items.

A company spokesperson described Haste as “a relentless test of reflexes and strategy, designed to keep players engaged as they attempt to survive collapsing worlds, unlock new challenges, and uncover the mysteries behind the universe’s destruction.”

Key features of Haste include:

- Third-person, high-speed running gameplay with responsive controls

- Support for solo play or online co-op, providing a versatile multiplayer experience

- 10 unique Shards, each encompassing a collection of procedurally generated levels that must be cleared in succession to advance

- Over 90 distinct items, allowing for deep customization of builds and strategies with every attempt

- A narrative-rich journey featuring a memorable cast of characters and immersive storytelling

- Four visually stunning biomes, each with multiple level variations

- Four core abilities and four formidable bosses to challenge players’ skills

- An unlockable endless mode for those seeking infinite replayability

Haste’s design philosophy centers around replayability and player agency.

Customizable builds, procedural generation, and a blend of story and action combine to deliver an experience tailored for speedrunners and cooperative adventurers alike.

With the addition of online co-op, Haste leverages the Nintendo Switch 2’s enhanced capabilities, offering seamless connectivity for players worldwide.

The official game trailer showcases the game’s kinetic action and diverse environments, highlighting the visual fidelity and strategic depth that have become hallmarks of Landfall releases.

Notably, Haste launches alongside another Landfall title, Content Warning, which is also available on both Nintendo Switch 2 and the original Switch platform.

Available now via the Nintendo eShop, Haste marks an exciting milestone for Landfall and a compelling new addition for Nintendo Switch 2 owners seeking fast-paced, cooperative gameplay.
