Storm Lancers Enhanced for Nintendo Switch 2: Release Date, Features, and Free Upgrade Details

ProbablyMonsters is set to bring its acclaimed action rogue-like, Storm Lancers, to the Nintendo Switch 2 on December 9, 2025, expanding the title’s reach to Nintendo’s eagerly awaited next-generation console.

The Nintendo eShop will host the digital launch, offering both newcomers and existing fans enhanced gameplay and new features tailored for the hardware’s increased capabilities. Storm Lancers made a strong impression upon its initial release on the Nintendo Switch, quickly carving out a dedicated player base with its fast-paced action, dynamic co-op mechanics, and replayable dungeon-crawling experience.

Now, with its arrival on Nintendo Switch 2, the game is primed for an upgrade that leverages the latest console advancements. The Nintendo Switch 2 version of Storm Lancers introduces several significant improvements.

It features full HDR support for richer visuals, a consistently smooth 60 frames per second performance, and expanded cooperative play options.

Players can battle through the game’s challenging Cryptica dungeons with friends or family locally, or connect online using Nintendo GameShare.

GameShare in particular stands out—it enables groups to play together even if only one player owns the game, lowering barriers and encouraging wider participation.

Additionally, Storm Lancers supports Steam Remote Play Together, adding cross-platform flexibility for co-op sessions. ProbablyMonsters has also confirmed that the transition to the upgraded platform will be seamless for current owners.

Those who previously purchased Storm Lancers on Nintendo Switch will be able to download the Nintendo Switch 2 version at no extra cost.

Furthermore, existing save data can be effortlessly transferred, ensuring that progress and gear will carry over. Speaking on the milestone, ProbablyMonsters head of studios Mark Subotnick highlighted the game’s growing community and commitment to a quality player experience: “We’ve observed tremendous enthusiasm for Storm Lancers, so it’s exciting to deliver this enhanced release.

Now, an even broader audience can journey through Cryptica with improved visuals, smoother gameplay, and robust online features thanks to Nintendo GameShare and Steam Remote Play Together.” Storm Lancers for Nintendo Switch 2 will release digitally worldwide via the Nintendo eShop on December 9, 2025.
