Wizordum Confirmed for Nintendo Switch: Retro Fantasy FPS Arrives in 2025 In a move that will excite fans of classic gaming and first-person shooters, Wizordum has officially been announced for consoles, with a release window set for 2025—Nintendo Switch included.

Developed with a retro-inspired vision, Wizordum stands out as a fantasy first-person shooter that channels the spirit of iconic ‘90s titles like Hexen and Heretic, now optimized for modern platforms. Wizordum first garnered attention on PC, where its blend of spell-slinging action and old-school design resonated with nostalgic gamers and speedrun enthusiasts alike.

With confirmation of its upcoming availability on Nintendo Switch, as well as other consoles, both new and seasoned players will have the opportunity to experience its blend of nostalgia and innovation. The game’s premise is steeped in high-fantasy lore: After the fabled Ancient Seal of Terrabruma is shattered, chaos floods the land.

Players take on the role of a mage—one of the last defenders of the Wizordum sanctuary—on a quest to identify and halt the source of this corruption before it engulfs the kingdom.

Wizordum’s campaign guides players from the quirky Town of Grimbrook through hazardous swamps, snowy mountain passes, and beyond. One of Wizordum’s standout features is its robust level editor, allowing players to not only create but also share custom levels from within the game itself—a nod to the community-driven modding scenes of classic shooters.

Players will wield an arsenal of magical weapons and items, tackle clever puzzles, evade treacherous traps, and explore secret-filled environments brimming with treasures.

For those seeking competition, Wizordum includes online leaderboards, timed challenges at every level, and the ability to push for top scores on the hardest difficulties. Regarding the upcoming console launch, the development team highlighted the importance of bringing Wizordum’s retro appeal to a new generation of players on platforms like Nintendo Switch.

They reiterated their commitment to speedrun-friendly gameplay, online competition, and accessible level creation within the console environment. While an exact release date has not yet been revealed, Nintendo Switch owners can look forward to Wizordum’s arrival in 2025, bolstering the console’s growing lineup of indie and retro-inspired titles available via the eShop.

The confirmation follows continued support from Nintendo’s ecosystem, which has become a go-to for genre fans seeking quality first-person shooters with both nostalgia and modern, accessible features.
