Viral Co-Op Game Coming to the Nintendo Switch on May 23

The popular Bread & Fred will be released for the Nintendo Switch on May 23. Bread & Fred is a viral co-op game in which players control two adorable penguins trying to climb a mountain, and Switch players will soon be able to try it out with their friends.
Bread & Fred was originally released for PC last year, and it quickly became a huge hit. Developed by Sand Castles Studio and published by Apogee Entertainment, the local co-op Steam game went viral on TikTok, where several content creators played it with their friends. The spotlight helped Bread & Fred to attract a wide audience, and the game currently stands with Very Positive reviews on Steam, as 87% of the players seem to enjoy it.
Now, the developers of Bread & Fred have announced that the co-op indie game will be coming to Switch on May 23. This is a special date for the game, as it marks the first anniversary of the title’s release on Steam. The port will be essentially the same game as the Steam version, with no major additions.
In Bread & Fred, players should test their skills working together as they control a couple of penguins that try to climb a mountain. It’s a hard game that requires precision with every jump, as a rope connects the penguins, and both players need to coordinate their movements to make progress. Most of the mechanics in Bread & Fred require precisely timed jumps, and swinging each penguin with skill to avoid falling while reaching higher places. Bread & Fred also comes with a single-player mode for people who don’t want a social experience and a speedrunning mode for folks who wish to try their skills after beating the game.
The release of Bread & Fred for the Nintendo Switch feels natural, considering how many popular indie games make their way onto the platform. The Nintendo Switch has several excellent co-op games like Overcooked, Super Mario Bros. Wonder, It Takes Two, and Unravel Two, and Bread & Fred will be another fine choice for gamers who like to play with friends.
Bread & Fred is just the latest of several Switch ports to be announced recently. Earlier this week, Bandai Namco revealed that One Piece Odyssey is coming for the Switch, and it’ll be released on July 26. The port will be the Deluxe Edition of the One Piece game, coming together with the DLC and exclusive content like new City of Water outfits.
The Nintendo Switch is a hybrid portable and home console that aims to be the only gaming system anyone needs. The hybrid controller is an undisputed success because it provides a high degree of portable visual quality and converts easily into a home console.
