Description

Shin'en Multimedia, an acclaimed independent developer renowned for pushing the technical limits of Nintendo platforms, has officially announced the release of The Touryst: Deluxe for Nintendo Switch 2.

Set to launch on September 25, 2025, this definitive edition brings a host of graphical upgrades and new content to one of the most celebrated indie titles on the original Switch, now fully modernized for the next generation. Originally released in 2019, The Touryst charmed players with its voxel art style, puzzle-based adventure gameplay, and vibrant island-hopping environments.

Shin'en has built upon this foundation for The Touryst: Deluxe, now enhanced to take full advantage of the Nintendo Switch 2's more powerful hardware.

The game will feature a native 4K resolution and maintain a smooth 60 frames per second, providing a marked visual leap from the original's maximum of 1080p. Players can expect an array of technical improvements, including global illumination in numerous locations, dynamic ambient occlusion, upgraded voxel water effects along the beaches, improved rain and depth of field, as well as new anti-aliasing methods to ensure crisp, clean visuals.

In addition to these enhancements, control responsiveness has been improved for a more seamless gameplay experience.

Crucially, for players returning from the first Switch version, The Touryst: Deluxe supports save-game transfers, allowing for a smooth transition without losing any progress. The Deluxe edition also offers fresh reasons to revisit the islands, with brand new locations, original quests, and the addition of new items to discover.

One notable feature is the in-game arcade cabinet, which now lets players access a playable spin-off based on the developer’s FAST racing series—titled FAST ZERO—pushing the boundaries of what’s included in this robust re-release. Shin'en Multimedia has acknowledged the strong community around The Touryst, expressing gratitude by offering significant discounts to existing owners.

According to the developer, anyone who purchased The Touryst on the original Switch eShop can upgrade to the Deluxe edition on Switch 2 for only 4.99€ / $4.99.

New players can pre-order the game for 19.99€ / $19.99, with all purchases now live on the eShop. Shin'en’s track record on Switch 2 continues to impress, as the developer also launched FAST Fusion for the platform, earning high praise and industry accolades upon release.

The company has subsequently supported FAST Fusion with free updates to maximize performance and add new content, further cementing its reputation for post-launch dedication and technical excellence. With The Touryst: Deluxe’s release, players can look forward to a technically accomplished, content-rich adventure—now designed to shine on Nintendo’s latest hardware and reward long-time fans alike.
