Description

First Break Labs and Magic Rain Studios have officially released 'Ila: A Frosty Glide' for Nintendo Switch, inviting players into an enchanting adventure unlike any other this winter.

Available now as a digital download via the Nintendo eShop, this imaginative title combines open world exploration with unique flying mechanics, offering a fresh experience tailored for fans of whimsical platformers and serene adventures. Set against the backdrop of a mystical, snow-covered island, 'Ila: A Frosty Glide' places players in the shoes of Ila, a determined young witch-in-training.

Her quest begins when her cherished cat, Coco, mysteriously vanishes.

Driven by the desire to reunite with her feline companion, Ila glides through the frosty terrain atop her magical skatebroom—a key gameplay feature that sets the title apart.

As players control Ila gliding effortlessly over mountains and valleys, the game delivers a core mechanic focused on the sheer feeling of movement and discovery. "Our aim was to deliver the pure joy of flight and exploration," representatives from First Break Labs shared, underscoring the game's emphasis on movement over combat.

Instead of traditional battles, players master and upgrade their flying abilities, navigate thrilling platforming sections, and uncover hidden corners across the small yet vibrant open world.

The design encourages both dynamic traversal and moments of relaxation, allowing gamers to pause and admire sweeping views from elevated vantage points or seek out hidden collectibles at a leisurely pace. Delving deeper, 'Ila: A Frosty Glide' invites players to piece together the island's deep lore.

By exploring ancient ruins and unlocking forgotten stories, players gradually discover connections between Ila’s own dreams and the mysteries that envelop the land.

Personalization is also a central feature—players can tailor Ila's appearance with outfits, hats, capes, and even skatebrooms, using coins and special items found throughout the island or purchased in the in-game magic shop.

The adventure is further complemented by an original soundtrack that adapts to Ila's progress, blending atmospheric melodies that evolve alongside her journey and guide players toward vital clues as they edge closer to Coco’s trail. 'Ila: A Frosty Glide' is now available worldwide on Nintendo Switch through the Nintendo eShop.

The launch underscores First Break Labs and Magic Rain Studios' commitment to delivering creative, relaxing gameplay experiences for fans of the platform.
