Strange Scaffold has confirmed I Am Your Beast will launch on Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2 on October 20, 2026.
The developer — known for titles such as Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Tactical Takedown and El Paso Elsewhere — describes the project as a compact, high-intensity first-person shooter that combines stealth, speed, and tactical improvisation.
The game will be distributed digitally through the Nintendo eShop on both platforms.
I Am Your Beast casts players as retired secret agent Alphonse Harding, who becomes embroiled in a violent conflict with a shadowy Covert Operations Initiative after refusing yet another job request.
Strange Scaffold characterizes the experience as a “covert revenge thriller” in which players are pursued across North American wilderness locations and must flip the hunt back on their pursuers.
Mechanically, the studio emphasizes rapid movement and improvised combat.
Players can scale trees with superhuman agility, exploit environmental tunnels to evade or ambush enemies, and repurpose enemy equipment against opposing forces.
The campaign is fully voiced, spans more than 20 distinct levels, and is built around short, replayable micro-sandboxes that encourage speedrunning and objective-based chases.
Key features confirmed by the developer include:
- Fast-paced player fantasy emphasizing stealth, high-mobility traversal, and explosive takedowns.
- A fully voiced story campaign with 20+ levels.
- A comic book-inspired visual style paired with kinetic typography in cutscenes.
- Replayable micro-sandboxes designed for time-focused runs and optional chase objectives.
- An arsenal that includes pistols, sniper rifles, bear traps, and other improvisational tools.
- A score composed by RJ Lake, whose credits include Space Warlord Organ Trading Simulator and prior Strange Scaffold collaboration El Paso Elsewhere.
A new trailer accompanied the launch announcement, providing gameplay footage and examples of the game’s stylistic choices.
The studio reiterated that the title will be available on the Nintendo eShop at release.
I Am Your Beast’s October 20, 2026 release positions it as a fall offering for both current Nintendo Switch owners and early adopters of Nintendo’s next hardware.
For shoppers who prefer digital purchases, the eShop will carry the title on launch day.
