Chorus Worldwide and developer Ryo Kobuchi revealed that Sky the Scraper, a roguelike action game, will be released for both Nintendo Switch and the forthcoming Nintendo Switch 2.
The publisher confirmed platform availability today but said launch timing will be announced at a later date.
A trailer for the title is available from the announcement.
Sky the Scraper puts players in the role of Sky, a young man pursuing uncertain dreams while working as a high-rise window cleaner.
Chorus Worldwide described the protagonist as someone balancing ambition and a dangerous day job, with gameplay built around precision movement, timing, and risk management.
What Sky the Scraper offers
- Roguelike structure and replay value: The game promises procedurally varying job scenes, with grime types, building layouts, weather, time of day, and obstacles all changing from run to run.
Players must adapt to shifting conditions to secure better rewards.
- High-rise cleaning action: Core mechanics center on using wires and wall movement to traverse façades, clear grime under a time limit, and maintain equipment.
The developer notes that frequent wiper maintenance is integral to high performance.
- Risk and consequence: If Sky loses suction, falls, or collides with hazards such as birds, the day’s work ends and the character risks severe injury.
The game frames safety and survival as central gameplay elements.
- Progression and customization: Players can upgrade cleaning equipment and unlock new skills through a system called Skill Synapse.
These upgrades are intended to help build optimized loadouts and improve outcomes over repeated runs.
- Narrative and endings: The title includes a two-month narrative arc in which the player balances workdays and days off, makes choices about shifts, and interacts with other characters.
Chorus Worldwide explains that player decisions influence Sky’s ambitions, financial status, and relationships, leading to multiple endings and unlockable content such as new stories, modes, or characters.
Chorus Worldwide and Ryo Kobuchi have not provided a release date; they stated launch timing will be shared later.
Fans tracking Switch releases often follow Nintendo Direct presentations and Nintendo eShop updates for formal release dates and storefront listings.
