F.I.S.T. : Forged in Shadow Torch, published by Bilibili and developed by TiGames, seems to be heading to Nintendo Switch. The 2D Metroidvania was published on PS platforms and PC last year, but a Switch rating has just recently appeared on the Taiwanese ratings board.
This might indicate that the game will be released on Switch shortly, albeit no official announcement has been given. For the time being, we’ll wait to see whether an official announcement is made.
About F.I.S.T. : Forged in Shadow Torch
Six years ago, the Machine Legion attacked and occupied the Torch City, which was once inhabited by animals. Rayton, the former soldier in the resistance fight, has been living in solitude since then.

And he has no idea that he is a part of a larger conspiracy involving the mafia, the revolt, and the legion.
