Tokyo-based Japanese studio Shapefarm will bring Orbitals to Nintendo Switch 2 on September 3, 2026, exclusively for the console.It's being published by Kepler Interactive, which has made a name for itself in recent years with a bold indie catalog.

The concept is an intergalactic cooperative adventure that blends retro '90s anime aesthetics with modern 3D gameplay—a combination rarely seen outside of niche Japanese productions.The trailers released so far highlight the game's vibrant colors and character designs that openly reference Sailor Moon and classic mecha.

As a Switch 2 exclusive, those who don't own Nintendo's new console will have to wait—if it ever arrives elsewhere, which hasn't been confirmed anywhere at the moment.For fans of cooperative platformers with a different twist, it's still a title worth keeping an eye on.
