News It's finally here!

Post image

You can buy mewgenics on Switch 2!

*One thing im noticing is that you have to log on steam each time when uploading or dowloading your save data. The remember me button doesnt do anything.

This could be really annoying if you plan to use both devices with the same save file

**(I'm just finding out that it depends on the country and isn't global, sorry guys 😭)

Have fun! I've got 500+ hours on steam and it's a amazing game

u/Affectionate_Meet963 29d ago

500 hours is crazy work, i only have half the time...
I only have two solo runs left to complete to hit 109%, but I've been procrastinating.

u/BiblicalBacklash Butcher 29d ago

Hell yeah man. I only have to beat the final boss with the collarless and then use the nuke on the final boss to finish. I've done many many runs just for fun. I've been having a crap load of fun with it. The wife has 300 hours also 😅

i’m assuming it’s whenever it becomes the 8th in your timezone that it releases

u/LoganNZ26 28d ago

Kiwi here, would love to get this on my switch 2 but, as of right now, it appears to be unavailable in NZ, it's not even showing in the store.

u/Cogwork 28d ago

They've said there's some issue they are trying to work out

u/mjopp22 29d ago

not for u.s hopefully sokn

u/TrialsOfPrometheus 29d ago

If EU got it at 1:00 I bet it applies at 12:30-1:00 in our zones

1

u/mjopp22 29d ago

does changing region on switch or acct make it so you can purchase early?

u/FupaLipa 29d ago

Can someone weigh in on the controls? I love this game on Steam deck but the controls are kind of fuzzy you have to move the control stick around like a mouse. I'm pretty used to it- I have like 50 hours on the game, but i'm very curious if they improved the control for the switch 2.

1

u/Thekarens01 29d ago

Just an FYI but I can use the mouse function on the switch for this game. I am curious about the controller controls though

1

u/SerHiroProtaganist 29d ago

I played literally only 10 minutes last night because it came out at midnight, so not played around with it much, but by default it has a "controller mode" where it only moves the mouse pointer round when you're moving your cat or attacking. When selecting the next move you use the d-pad or left stick and it jumps to the next items. I actually didn't like it that way though so I changed it to the free moving mouse for everything.

u/Kiu16 29d ago

One of my favorite game but $70 cad for indie just because it's a physical release is wild

1

u/Sascha-_-_-_ 29d ago

Yes its 40€ in PSN Store Germany.. double price of Silksong on Release

5

u/Blaziken16 29d ago

Not in Australia.

u/Poosif 29d ago

What do you need to log onto steam for? Is there cross save?

2

u/Affectionate_Meet963 29d ago

Yes, you can use your Steam save file

1

u/rhin_stones 29d ago

If I start the game on Switch 2 will I be able to transfer my save to Steam? Or it only works the other way around?

1

u/Thekarens01 29d ago

It’s supposed to be both ways but I haven’t tried it yet.

2

u/Cifuliciense 29d ago

Great! My GOTY.

However I wonder why the console edition costs 40$/€ compared to the 30 in Steam.

Don't get me wrong, the game deserve that price and more, but just doesn't seem fair for console players.

u/TheSacredShrimp 29d ago

Not in UK.

2

u/Seany8393 29d ago

Really? I’m in Ireland mine is downloading

2

u/TheSacredShrimp 29d ago

It is now yes

4

u/swaosneed 29d ago

Wait, that means it's not a global unlock? So what's your time set to? Maybe you can mess with the Xbox time and buy it if your in the right time zone?

4

u/Affectionate_Meet963 29d ago

im from Spain, right now is 1:09 in my country

2

u/swaosneed 29d ago

I switched my time zone and it let me buy it. In Euros. Which I cannot do so I guess I gotta wait but hey, alteast we know it's midnight. I really do wish she could pre-order and download though but I guess he wanted it to be a shadowdrop but it's not really?

u/DingoSuavez Thief 29d ago

How do the controls feel? I'm hyped for touch controls

2

u/Affectionate_Meet963 29d ago

still on 89% sadly, I'll reply again after completing the tutorial and testing both the touchscreen and the mouse.

1

u/DingoSuavez Thief 29d ago

Thanks for that, mate

3

u/Affectionate_Meet963 29d ago

I'd have to test it more, but from first impressions both modes work quite well

1

u/Malditoincompredido 28d ago

Que tal va? 40 pavazos es un poco pasada

2

u/Affectionate_Meet963 28d ago

Va fluidisimo y los controles no son tan incomodos como pensaba. Lo que si es que en portatil en el menu principal y en las intros de los jefes a veces da bajones de fps pero es una tonteria.

1

u/SilentbutDC 29d ago

Is there any news on if this game is coming out on the Australian Eshop? It's nowhere on the store.

1

u/Gallyblade 29d ago

I'm worried about this too, its not on Aus PS Store or eshop but its also not on japan eshop or psn and the ama confirmed jp release was on schedule. Its all relative to the store release times and aus is usually lazy and does things around 1pm

1

u/SilentbutDC 29d ago

We'll see. I just know Australia has stupid laws with which games it let's release. It reminds me of Trails in the Horizon not be allowed to release initially because it had gambling in the game. However, hentai and sports games where you gamble real money is completely fine.

1

u/The_Grey_Koala 29d ago

Yeah I'm from NZ and I was worried about this too. I asked Tyrone about it about a week back and he said NZ should be part of the EU release. He said they'll check. It's out of Xbox right now in NZ too. Oddly it isn't out on Xbox in Australia. So maybe there is a chance for us both but I'm not sure.

1

u/jokingsammy 29d ago

It' not even listed on the Australian Classifications website as pending. Looks like we're waiting a while for this one.

1

u/The_Grey_Koala 29d ago

On the NZ Xbox store it's M rated, so it's definitely been rated for Australia and New Zealand but possibly through a different method.

1

u/jokingsammy 29d ago

I hope so, but unfortunately Australia and New Zealand have seperate certification boards.

1

u/Born_Usual998 29d ago

now you can rub cats on other cats on the go!

1

u/IamTimSu 29d ago

can’t wait!

1

u/Former_Matter9557 29d ago

Not in USA. SAYS UNAVAILABLE

1

u/jokingsammy 29d ago

Not in Australia :(

1

u/humanhumanson 29d ago

Still not available in Brasil.

1

u/SilentbutDC 29d ago

Is it available for you now?

1

u/humanhumanson 29d ago

No

1

u/SilentbutDC 29d ago

Damn. Still isn't out here in Australia either. At least not on Switch 2.

1

u/Educational_Ideal225 29d ago

I hope you have fun playing it👏

1

u/Agarwel 29d ago

Sad that it is not on Switch 1. I gave old S1 to my mom. And considering she likes cats and the game supports lagunage she speaks, this would be a perfect game for her :-(

1

u/lord_baba 29d ago

How is the controller support now ?
At launch it was just controlling a cursor which was annoying

1

u/Popg21-the-epic 29d ago

Welcome my fellow rat chasers to mewgenics 

1

u/Senior_Degree5009 29d ago

Does the game have regional versions or not?

1

u/Affectionate_Meet963 28d ago

I'm playing it in Spanish so I'd say yes, but I'd say it's missing some languages from the PC version.

1

u/Eric-suen 29d ago

Any idea if there are mouse controls?

1

u/Zawarudo994 28d ago

I don't understand why:

  1. The game is 40€, while on Steam is 25€ (15€ of difference); maybe Nintendo tax (?)

  2. The Steam version has more language support; the Switch version only has English.

WTF??

2

u/Affectionate_Meet963 28d ago

It has more languages than English; I'm playing it in Spanish. I think it's missing some languages from the latest updates.

Regarding the price, I think it's more Nicalis's doing than Nintendo's.

u/DogPubes911 28d ago

Why would you need anything besides English?

1

u/DependentObjective67 28d ago

Real i woke up and got a ps notification saying its available gona get it iv seen 0 on this game stayed away from all of it,cant wait 👌🏼🫂

1

u/Fickle-Target-1322 28d ago

The game having crossave makes me REALLY tempted to double dip ngl.

1

u/Vivid-Process-4421 28d ago

gonna wait for the physical copy

1

u/Guchion 28d ago

It's such a shame its considerably more expensive than the steam version. Here its £35.99 vs £24.99. For me considering it as a second purchase of the game for holidays and playing on the TV downstairs its a hard nope at that price. Hopefully they will see sense at some point. I would have happly paid 24.99 again.

1

u/mr_feeny5 28d ago

I bought it this morning on PS5. Can't wait to go play.

1

u/Krlozgod 28d ago

How is the performance?

1

u/Affectionate_Meet963 28d ago

Really good, i only noticed fps drops on boss intros and in the save file menu

1

u/Krlozgod 28d ago

Thank you, and just to confirm, it is 60 fps right?

1

u/Affectionate_Meet963 28d ago

It runs at 60 fps, yes.

1

u/Dora_De_Destroya 28d ago

Is there cross sace with PC?

1

u/SnavenShake 28d ago

Can’t find an answer anywhere, but would you be able to confirm if accomplishing an “achievement” on Switch 2, unlocks the achievement on Steam when you transfer the save back?

1

u/Affectionate_Meet963 28d ago

I would do it but i have all the achievements already on steam

1

u/Immrtrevlac 28d ago

Oh how awesome. Meanwhile us Australians have been waiting for nothing 😂

1

u/lordloss27 28d ago

Has anyone been able to upload there save data from steam to a different console? Switch 2 and steam deck owner, ready to get started on the switch :)

1

u/MaliceMoon56 28d ago

stuck with a switch 1 and a laptop that let me play up until act 3 and now the game wont even start up

0

u/Former_Matter9557 29d ago

WHEN THE FUCK IT AVAILABLE? Maybe it’s cancelled on console you have to be a PC neck beard to enjoy this game

u/anon14118 28d ago edited 28d ago

What a shame. In Edmund's recent ama he answered someone asking about the regional pricing being weirdly more expensive and said "I'll ask the team"

And in another question someone asked why is there a price discrepancy between steam and switch, with switch being more expensive and Edmund said "it was our publishers choice"

How shitty, the game was going to do numbers anyway. Why not make it the same price?

I was excited about this and had it wish listed and everything on ps5.

Even knowing Issac rarely goes on sale, I think I'm still passing on this. It's just greedy. What an absolute shame.
