Numskull Games, in collaboration with Gregarious Games and Robot Circus, has officially announced the upcoming release of Reptilian Rising for the Nintendo Switch.
Scheduled to launch this spring, Reptilian Rising marks a distinctive entry into the turn-based tactical RPG genre, combining claymation-inspired visuals with strategic, time-bending gameplay.
Notably, a limited physical edition of the game will be available exclusively for the Nintendo Switch in Europe, offering collectors a unique opportunity to acquire a tangible piece of this creative project. Reptilian Rising places players at the heart of an extraordinary battle across the ages.
Tasked with defending humanity from the titular reptilian threat, players will command a diverse roster of iconic historical figures, including legends such as Winston Churchill, Cleopatra, and Albert Einstein.
These heroes must join forces to overcome an invasion led by the time-spanning adversary known as The Ouroboros, whose forces include outlandish foes like the mechanical Tri-Cannon—a three-headed, minigun-wielding triceratops—and an army of mutated dinosaur villains. A spokesperson for the development team described the gameplay as a fusion of tactical depth and chaotic charm: “Players will recruit renowned leaders and geniuses from humanity’s greatest epochs, upgrading their abilities and leading them in turn-based combat against ever-evolving reptilian foes.
Each battle unfolds on claymation-inspired dioramas, delivering a nostalgic yet innovative visual experience.” Beyond its inventive art style, Reptilian Rising offers a robust suite of tactical options.
Players can harness time-manipulating abilities to outmaneuver enemies, create clones of their heroes, summon reinforcements, or open time-gates to swiftly reposition across the battlefield.
This creative use of time-travel mechanics enhances replayability, encouraging players to revisit missions, pursue bonus objectives, and unlock hidden secrets scattered across seven distinct time periods. The announcement of Reptilian Rising comes amid strong demand for unique indie experiences on the Nintendo Switch, a platform that has welcomed a diverse array of turn-based strategy games since its debut.
With titles like Reptilian Rising, Numskull Games and its development partners continue to reinforce the Switch’s reputation as a haven for inventive tactical RPGs.
European fans will want to keep an eye out for news regarding the limited physical release, while digital pre-orders are expected to open soon on the Nintendo eShop.
