Courtesy of Assemble Entertainment and VoodooDuck, we have a final release date for Growth. The two sides confirmed today that it’s heading to Switch on December 21, 2023.
Growth was previously announced for Switch in June. It was originally planned for summer, and while it’s taken a little longer than initially planned, the game isn’t far off now.
Here’s some information about the relaxing puzzle game:
Growth is a cozy, hexagonal-grid based soft-strategy game by VoodooDuck. Explore and populate a procedurally generated world by utilizing the unique abilities of animals. Growth blends the beauty of cozy exploration with challenging navigation around obstacles.
Populate and expand upon the procedurally generated land by working together with animals. As you expand, you’ll come across different animals, each with unique abilities that will help you overcome the game’s many obstacles. Explore and expand an ever-growing, procedurally generated map by cleverly connecting clusters of wildlife. Claim newfound clusters or points of interest to receive additional wildlife or, in some cases special rewards.
