Laika: Aged Through Blood Physical Edition Announced for Nintendo Switch by Super Rare Games

Super Rare Games has officially unveiled its newest physical release for the Nintendo Switch: Laika: Aged Through Blood.

This critically acclaimed indie title, praised for its unique blend of fast-paced 2D motorbike action and evocative storytelling, will be available in a limited physical edition.

Super Rare Games has confirmed the production of 3,000 standard copies and 1,000 Deluxe Edition units, providing collectors and fans with rare items and exclusive content. The Deluxe Edition of Laika: Aged Through Blood is set to delight enthusiasts with a comprehensive package.

This collector’s version includes a 32-page softcover art book, a Laika enamel pin, a custom-designed 52-card playing deck, an A3-sized poster, an A6 sticker sheet, a full-color game manual, a Super Rare Games sticker, and a complete set of trading cards—featuring a highly sought-after shiny card.

Each item is curated to celebrate the artistry and atmosphere that Laika: Aged Through Blood brings to the Nintendo Switch platform. Originally released digitally on the Nintendo eShop in January, Laika: Aged Through Blood quickly earned a reputation as the first 'Motorvania'—a 2D action-platformer with high-speed vehicular mechanics at its core.

Developed by Brainwash Gang, the game places players in the role of Laika, a determined coyote mother and fierce warrior, as she embarks on a dangerous journey to reclaim her homeland from the oppressive Birds who have seized control.

The narrative, underpinned by themes of vengeance and loss, unfolds across striking, hand-drawn environments fraught with hidden dangers and secrets to uncover. Laika: Aged Through Blood offers a gameplay experience defined by breakneck motorbike combat, where precision and strategic thinking are rewarded.

Players can wield a diverse arsenal, unlock potent new abilities, and upgrade gear to help overcome formidable foes.

The game's hauntingly beautiful ambient soundtrack and hand-crafted landscapes further anchor the emotional journey at the heart of the experience. Super Rare Games has confirmed that the physical release of Laika: Aged Through Blood for Nintendo Switch will go on sale starting May 29, 2025.

Both the standard and Deluxe Edition will be available exclusively through Super Rare Games' official store, with limited quantities ensuring that this release will be highly coveted among collectors and indie game fans.
