Trine 6: Together in Time arrives on Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2 on September 25, 2026, marking the next console entry in Frozenbyte’s long-running Trine series.
Co-developed with Cooldown Games, the title is presented as a 1–4 player co-op puzzle platformer that builds on the franchise’s signature blend of physics-based puzzles, character abilities, and cooperative problem-solving.
According to the developers’ overview, the story begins when two inexperienced thieves, Moira and Adrius, botch a heist and inadvertently bind their fates to the realm’s established heroes.
That narrative setup underlines the game’s cooperative focus: strangers and veterans alike must work together to restore a powerful magic before a warlock reclaims it.
Gameplay and features
- Five playable heroes: The game features five distinct characters—including series mainstays Amadeus, Zoya, and Pontius alongside new characters Moira and Adrius—each with unique abilities that players can use to overcome obstacles.
- Time-Slow mechanic: All characters have access to a new Time-Slow ability, allowing players to temporarily slow the world to line up precise jumps, react to threats, or navigate chaotic encounters.
- Co-op and solo play: Trine 6 supports up to four-player cooperative play, with local couch co-op and online multiplayer options noted in the overview.
Puzzles are designed with a co-op-first approach but have been updated so solo players can complete them without relying on specific character lockouts.
- Crossplay and shared adventure: The announcement describes the experience as designed to be shared, offering crossplay functionality so players can team up across different systems.
Development and platform details
Frozenbyte, the original creator of the Trine series, once again leads the project with co-development support from Cooldown Games.
The title will release simultaneously on both Nintendo’s current- and next-generation handheld/console hardware, bringing the franchise to the Nintendo Switch and the Nintendo Switch 2 on the same date.
Trine 6: Together in Time positions itself as a cooperative return to the series’ puzzle-driven roots while introducing a new Time-Slow layer and updated solo-friendly puzzles.
The release on September 25, 2026 gives Switch and Switch 2 owners a clear target for when they can explore the next chapter in Trine’s fantasy world.
