Sir You Are Being Hunted finally debuts on Nintendo Switch, publisher Ocean Media and developer Big Robot announced, bringing the studio’s procedurally generated British horror to the console eShop roughly 13 years after the game’s original PC release.
The Switch launch completes the title’s move from PC to a dedicated handheld-console audience and delivers full controller support and achievements/trophies on consoles.
Background and launch
Originally developed by Big Robot, Sir You Are Being Hunted places players on a mysterious archipelago stalked by tweed-wearing robotic hunters.
Ocean Media is handling the Switch release, which is now available on the Nintendo Switch eShop.
The port adds controller support and console achievement integration that mirrors the original game’s stealth-survival mechanics.
What the game is
In journalistic terms, the official overview describes Sir You Are Being Hunted as a first-person stealth-survival experience set in a darkly comic parallel Britain.
Players are stranded across procedurally generated islands that span five distinct biomes—rural, castle, industrial, mountainous, and fenland—and must survive by scavenging, hiding in foliage, and outsmarting increasingly aggressive robotic aristocrats.
The game’s atmosphere is guided by a disembodied butler named Walters, who provides direction with proper manners and an unsettling tone.
Rewritten statement from the official overview
The game’s overview explains that players must rely on limited tools, environmental stealth, and improvised loot to evade relentless AI hunters that escalate in aggression the longer a player survives.
It notes that each playthrough varies due to procedural generation across multiple biomes, ensuring a different hunt on each island.
