Blue Prince arrives on Nintendo Switch 2
Developed by Hollywood-based independent studio Dogubomb, Blue Prince has launched for Nintendo Switch 2.

The mind-bending puzzle adventure game with roguelike elements takes place in a mysterious sprawling mansion in the mountains. Players explore the ever-changing Mt. Holly's shifting halls in search of the mysterious Room 46.

Haunting music is by Trigg & Gusset. Bandmembers Bart Knol on piano and synths, and Erik van Geer on bass clarinet and sax, reflect on their shared passion for slow jazz, atmospheric electronics and enthralling grooves in the Bandcamp album liner notes.


The Original Soundtrack is also available for streaming via Apple Music, Spotify, and Amazon Music Unlimited. Additional synths and guitar accompaniment are contributed by Jurren Mekking.

Blue Prince is also available for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S consoles and Windows through Steam, published by Raw Fury. A discussion hosted by Trent Kusters with designer Tonda Ros for the Game Maker's Notebook can be viewed on the Academy of Interactive Arts & Sciences YouTube channel.
