Nintendo announced that Annapurna Interactive's space exploration game Outer Wilds makes its way to Nintendo Switch this summer. An exact release date has not been announced.
Outer Wilds, not to be confused with Obsidian Entertainment's The Outer Worlds, is an open-world mystery game where players have 22 minutes to explore space before the universe is engulfed in a supernova. After that, the clock resets. The game's loop is reminiscent of The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask, where players have a limited amount of days (that could be extended using the ocarina) to prevent the smiling moon from crashing into the world.
