Eclipse: Edge of Light, first-person exploration game on Switch

White Elk Studios announced that their award-winning virtual reality game – Eclipse: Edge of Light – is available on the Nintendo Switch. With the release, Eclipse: Edge of Light continues to redefine what’s possible in gaming, featuring more advanced features and original music by Andrew Prahlow, award-winning composer of Outer Wilds.

Created by former God of War developers, Eclipse: Edge of Light is a first-person exploration game set on a sentient planet with a dark past. At its core is a mysterious story of a world filled with discovery and wonder. You awake after crash-landing to find yourself in a dreamscape environment, littered with the remnants of a failed civilization.

Eclipse: Edge of Light is currently available on Daydream, GearVR, and Oculus Go and coming soon to Steam VR, Oculus Rift, Oculus Quest and Nintendo Switch.

Originally released in April 2017, Eclipse: Edge of Light went on to win three Mobile VR game of the year awards from VRFest, Daydream District, and UploadVR.

With the launch of the title on the Nintendo Switch, the game’s controls have been adapted to a flat version of the game from VR and the graphics have been updated, from its earlier mobile versions, to include normal maps, full screen effects like bloom, and dynamic lighting on the Artifact.
