Relayer Advanced Definitive Edition Lands on Nintendo Switch 2: Release Date, Features, and Complete Content Breakdown

Dragami Games has officially released Relayer Advanced Definitive Edition on Nintendo Switch 2, giving mecha strategy enthusiasts a robust new platform to experience its acclaimed tactical gameplay.

First introduced in 2022, Relayer Advanced allows players to command the Starchildren in an interstellar war against the alien Relayer, blending intense strategy with epic sci-fi storytelling.

As of today, September 25th, Nintendo Switch 2 users can access the definitive version, which includes every piece of previously released downloadable content and additional spin-off storylines. Relayer Advanced Definitive Edition represents the most comprehensive release of the title to date.

The upgraded version, which originally followed the March 2022 launch of Relayer, has earned recognition for its deep strategic mechanics and expressive robot combat.

With a Metascore of 77, it stands as a standout option for SRPG fans, particularly those drawn to tactical battles featuring customizable mech units. According to the developer, players will take command of "Stellar Gear" units—advanced, humanoid machines piloted by the Starchildren—as they confront the Relayer threat.

The game features innovative systems such as the "Hate" mechanic, which measures how likely a unit is to be targeted by enemies, strategic job- and character-specific skills, and the ability to execute advanced maneuvers like "Backstab" for pincer attacks and the devastating "Big Bang" special move.

Each engagement is brought to life with approximately 100 high-quality cutscenes, while every stage features detailed 3D environments crafted for the Switch 2’s hardware capabilities. This definitive edition delivers the full Relayer experience with all main game content and DLC included, ensuring that newcomers and returning fans alike enjoy the richest version possible.

Additionally, Dragami Games has enhanced accessibility by including a complete English dub alongside the original Japanese voice track, broadening its appeal to global audiences. While pricing for North American players on the eShop is forthcoming, the UK retail cost is set at £29.50.

The release of Relayer Advanced Definitive Edition on Nintendo Switch 2 marks another milestone for Dragami Games, as the developer continues to expand its reach across platforms and deliver high-quality strategy titles to a dedicated fan base. Whether you’re revisiting the series or exploring it for the first time, Relayer Advanced Definitive Edition offers a complete, polished, and content-rich tactical experience now available on Nintendo Switch 2.
