Spelunky Series Coming To Nintendo Switch Next Year (VIDEO)
Mossmouth released the highly anticipated sequel to Spelunky earlier this year for PlayStation 4 as well as PC, providing players new and old with some fun and challenging content. That said, it looks like the fun is not over as the series will be making its way to Nintendo Switch next year.
During a recent Nintendo Indie World presentation, it was revealed that both Spelunky and Spelunky 2 will be coming to the massively popular portable console next summer. It was even disclosed that not only will both titles be coming to Switch, but the multiplayer will also be included so players can take the games on the go and play with their friends at the same time.

As pointed out in the trailer above, local multiplayer will be available for Spelunky while the sequel will include both local and online multiplayer. No specific release date was provided for when the popular series will be coming to Nintendo Switch, but it is expected to drop at some point next summer on the Nintendo eShop. Until then, you’ll have to keep exploring the underground goodness on other platforms.
Spelunky is currently available on just about everything from PS Vita and Xbox 360 to PC and Mac, while the recently released sequel is available on PC and PlayStation 4.
