Daedalic Entertainment and indie studio Quad Head have announced plans to bring Pratfall to consoles, with Nintendo Switch 2 listed among the supported platforms.

The team has confirmed a console port effort but has not yet shared a release date or detailed launch timing.

The announcement included a consoles trailer and an overview of core features and gameplay mechanics.

Pratfall is described by the developers as a chaotic cooperative rescue adventure in which players fall, dig, and use explosives to navigate a hazardous cave system with the objective of rescuing a missing dog.

The game supports solo and multiplayer runs, and the developer overview emphasizes environmental hazards, traps, and physics-driven challenges — with gravity cited as a constant threat throughout each run.

In journalistic terms: the team presents Pratfall as a physics-focused, cooperative digging and exploration game where players must work together to traverse destructible terrain, recover scattered items, and reach a lost canine companion.

The developers highlight tools such as pickaxes, drills, ziplines, flares, and other interactive items that can alter the environment and create emergent scenarios.

Key features listed in the overview include online co-op, procedural generation across three distinct biomes, destructible terrain, interactive items, and cosmetics.

The overview also references voice proximity chat and an unusually large theoretical player ceiling — reporting that the game can scale up to 250 players in experimental scenarios, while recommending smaller party sizes (four players considered safe).

Fall damage and explosive interactions are integral to the game’s chaotic loop.

The announcement reiterates that consoles are part of the rollout strategy and that full platform availability will include Nintendo hardware; exact store listings (such as eShop placement) and specific release windows are pending.

A consoles trailer accompanied the update, providing a look at gameplay systems and co-op moments.

Daedalic Entertainment has a history of publishing and porting narrative and indie titles, and Quad Head continues to develop Pratfall’s physics-first design.

The publisher and developer have not provided a firm date for the console release; outlets and players should expect further updates via official channels such as Nintendo Direct or publisher announcements.

Note: Some outlets and materials have mistakenly spelled the title as "Prattfall." The correct spelling is Pratfall.
