Piggly Pagly Boom Launches on Nintendo Switch: New 2D Puzzle Action Shooter Arrives October 2025

Ratalaika Games and Spanish developer 9Ratones have officially announced the upcoming release of Piggly Pagly Boom for the Nintendo Switch.

Mark your calendars: the highly-anticipated 2D puzzle action shooter is set to debut on the Nintendo eShop on October 3, 2025.

This title marks a significant collaboration between Ratalaika Games, a publisher renowned for prolific indie support on Nintendo platforms, and 9Ratones, a studio recognized for inventive gameplay experiences. Piggly Pagly Boom challenges players to step into the hooves of Morgan Pigman after a laboratory experiment spirals out of control.

With the fate of the world hanging in the balance, gamers must utilize a versatile hookshot to combat a barrage of unruly fireballs.

Mastering the game’s puzzle action shooting mechanics, players will fire the hookshot vertically, latching it onto the ceiling to create a temporary defensive rope that eliminates any fireballs it touches.

Strategic timing and positioning are critical as each level is governed by a countdown timer, adding urgency and replayability. Throughout the game, players can acquire a variety of useful power-ups.

These enhancements include the ability to freeze enemy movement, extend countdown timers, improve shot speed, and bolster defensive capabilities.

The combination of these features crafts a gameplay loop that is both challenging and rewarding, appealing to fans of puzzle games and action shooters alike.

All this unfolds to an upbeat electronic dance music soundtrack, designed to keep players energized as they progress through increasingly difficult stages. "Our goal was to create a game that mixes the cerebral challenge of puzzles with the thrill of action shooters," noted a representative from 9Ratones in the official press materials.

"We hope Nintendo Switch players will enjoy the unique mechanics and lively atmosphere of Piggly Pagly Boom." Piggly Pagly Boom will be available digitally on the Nintendo Switch eShop at launch, priced at $5.99.

The release aligns with Ratalaika Games’ ongoing commitment to bringing accessible, high-quality indie experiences to Nintendo Switch users worldwide.

For players seeking a fresh, fast-paced title that highlights ingenuity in both mechanics and audiovisual design, Piggly Pagly Boom is set to become a notable entry in the Switch’s ever-growing library.
