Way back in the mists of, um, June, developer Frogwares’ Lovecraftian sleuthing adventure, The Sinking City, burst onto PC, PS4, and Xbox One to modest acclaim. A Switch version was also revealed to be in the works – and, now, for those that prefer their antediluvian tentacles on-the-go, Frogwares has finally granted a look the game running on Nintendo’s console.

The Sinking City, if you’re unfamiliar, casts players in the role of Charles Reed, a private investigator who journeys to Oakmont, Massachusetts – a 1920s locale plagued by supernatural floods and cosmic horrors – in a bid to cure his terrifying visions. Deductive investigation, exploration, and combat against unearthly creatures ensues.

The first gameplay footage of The Sinking City on Switch comes courtesy of Frogwares’ latest developer video, which showcases the game’s moody open-world action with a range of different sequences – from boat rides to murky underwater peril – running on the console.
