The Company Man Will Be Working on Switch Next Week

In late 2021, we reported on The Company Man releasing in early 2022. Well, it appears that “early 2022” means January 21st, 2022, so we will be able to get our hands on this interesting-looking action platformer very soon. Leoful and Forust confirmed the release date today, and the title will launch on the eShop next week.

Check out the trailer:

About The Company Man

The Company Man is a classic action platformer inspired by the popular American TV series “The Office”. You play as Jim, a young salaryman starting out at the Good Water Company. Unsatisfied with how the company is run, Jim sets out to overthrow his boss and become the CEO. Launch email attacks against coworkers with a powerful keyboard, run and jump across departments from Human Resources to Marketing, boost up with coffee beans, and show them who’s boss!

DESTROY EVERYONE IN YOUR PATH AS YOU MAKE YOUR WAY TO THE TOP

Put your platforming skills to the test as you jump and dash across seven corporate departments riddled with booby traps, quirky coworkers, and tough bosses.

IMMERSE YOURSELF IN A BEAUTIFULLY CRAFTED WORLD

Explore a variety of beautiful hand-painted environments – from the over air-conditioned icy floors in Accounting to the endless mountains of paperwork in Human Resources.

RELATABLE ISSUES DELIVERED WITH WIT

Remember the lazy manager who bosses you around, or the annoying coworker that tries to sell you a pyramid scheme? You will find yourself laughing at the many puns and jokes of working life.

PULL YOURSELF BY THE BOOTSTRAPS WITH WEAPON UPGRADES

Upskill yourself with a keyboard upgrade after beating a new department. From throwing a backhanded comment to blasting a spam email tsunami, there are many ways to finish the job.

RE-ENERGIZE WITH A RELAXING COFFEE BREAK

Feeling a little underpowered? Have a coffee break to boost your health and stamina! I mean, how could you possibly overthrow a company without a little caffeine?

BUFF UP WITH COFFEE BEANS

Spend the coins you earn from beating up your coworkers at the Coffee Shop, which offers a variety of health and stamina boosting coffee beans.

LOOK OUT FOR SECRET GAUNTLET DUNGEONS

Challenge yourself in secret gauntlet dungeons where Jim is forced to fight wave after wave of coworkers. These dungeons aren’t easy to find, so keep a lookout for them!

THERE’S A DIFFICULTY LEVEL FOR EVERYONE

Whether you’re a newbie or an expert, we got you covered with a wide range of difficulty levels from Normal to Impossible (Impossible is unlocked after beating the game).

The Company Man will release next week on January 21st, 2022, and it will cost $19.99 USD. There will even be a 10% discount for pre-ordering the title or purchasing it before January 30th, so take advantage of that!
