With just one month remaining before its highly anticipated debut, THQ Nordic has released a free demo for Reanimal, now available on the Nintendo Switch 2 eShop for players in Europe.
The full version of this co-op horror game is slated for release on February 15, 2026, exclusively for Nintendo Switch 2.
While the demo is currently limited to the European market, THQ Nordic has not yet announced availability for other regions, including the United States. Developed by Tarsier Studios, Reanimal marks a significant return for the acclaimed team behind the original Little Nightmares series.
Building upon their legacy in the horror platformer genre, Tarsier Studios’ latest title is being positioned as a spiritual successor to Little Nightmares, following the studio’s previous work before the franchise transitioned to Supermassive Games for its third installment. Reanimal immerses players in a chilling world, telling the gripping story of two siblings striving to escape a nightmarish landscape teeming with grotesque creatures.
The game is designed with co-op gameplay in mind, but Tarsier Studios has emphasized that solo players will have no trouble experiencing the complete story, even without a partner.
This commitment to accessibility ensures a broad appeal among both cooperative and single-player enthusiasts on the Nintendo Switch 2 platform. Reflecting modern gaming standards, the Reanimal demo includes both Quality and Performance modes, allowing players to tailor the visual fidelity and frame rates to their individual preferences.
This flexibility highlights the technical advancements of the Nintendo Switch 2 and ensures a smooth, customizable experience for users seeking either enhanced graphics or optimized performance. Since its unveiling, Reanimal has generated considerable buzz within the Nintendo community, thanks in part to Tarsier Studios’ established reputation for creating memorable horror experiences.
The availability of the demo provides a valuable opportunity for fans and newcomers alike to sample the game’s mechanics, atmospheric design, and story before its official launch. As of now, Nintendo Switch 2 users in Europe can download the Reanimal demo directly from the eShop.
THQ Nordic has yet to release concrete figures, but early engagement metrics indicate strong demand within the European market.
The worldwide gaming community eagerly awaits further updates regarding the demo’s release in additional territories. Reanimal is poised to become a standout title upon its February 15, 2026 release, representing another milestone collaboration between THQ Nordic and Tarsier Studios.
Players interested in the latest updates on Reanimal and other upcoming Nintendo Switch 2 releases are encouraged to monitor news from Nintendo Direct presentations and the official eShop channels.
