Murder Inc for Nintendo Switch: Release Date, Key Features, and Pre-Order Details Revealed

Sometimes You, a well-known publisher in the indie gaming sphere, has officially announced a collaboration with developer PigeonDev to bring the adrenaline-charged shooter Murder Inc to consoles.

The highly anticipated title is scheduled to launch on Nintendo Switch on October 22, 2025, marking another significant addition to the Switch’s diverse library of indie games.

Murder Inc stands out as a top-down shooter that introduces a unique twist to time manipulation mechanics: in this action-packed experience, time only moves when the player does.

This innovative approach allows for meticulously planned attacks and strategic evasions as players navigate a gritty urban environment teetering between order and chaos.

Players embody a mysterious operative, an antihero tasked with taking down criminal kingpins hidden within a labyrinth of grim city streets.

Each action—whether it's firing a weapon, dodging bullets, or advancing through the city—directly impacts the flow of time, placing control firmly in the hands of the player. In a statement released in conjunction with the announcement, a representative from Sometimes You emphasized the game’s innovative design, stating that Murder Inc 'throws players into a world where every decision and every movement is critical, creating a relentless, cinematic flow.' This sentiment underscores the game's commitment to merging fast-paced action with tactical precision. Key features highlighted by the publisher include: - An engaging time-dynamics system: Time only progresses on player movement, providing opportunities to plan and execute thrilling maneuvers amidst waves of enemies. - Brutal yet stylish combat: The gameplay rewards both swift reflexes and tactical thinking, as players chain together kills in dynamic, slow-motion sequences. - Retro-inspired aesthetics: Murder Inc showcases pixel art visuals and a synth-heavy retrowave soundtrack, evoking the adrenaline-fueled ambiance of classic action cinema. Priced at $9.99 on the Nintendo eShop, Murder Inc will offer a 20 percent discount for players who pre-order the title ahead of its October 2025 release.

This partnership marks one of several successful collaborations between Sometimes You and innovative indie developers like PigeonDev, recognized for their ability to deliver memorable, genre-pushing experiences on the Nintendo Switch platform.
