Little Orpheus on Switch Delayed Due to “Recent World Events”

Little Orpheus was originally set to arrive on the Nintendo Switch today, but the title is being delayed. Secret Mode and The Chinese Room have chosen to push the game back due to “recent world events”.

Here is their full statement:

In light of recent world events, today’s PC and console launch for Little Orpheus will be delayed.

While Little Orpheus was originally released on Apple Arcade in June 2020 and does not directly reference recent world events, we recognize some of the game’s themes and content may be upsetting to players at the time.

We thank you for your understanding and will share information at a later point.

Little Orpheus has a Russian rocket pilot, and given the current situation with Russia and the Ukraine, Secret Mode and The Chinese Room felt that delaying the launch on new platforms was the right thing to do.

A new release date for Little Orpheus has not yet been announced, so please stay tuned for further information as it comes through.
