<p>Headup Games has brought a lovely little collection of games to Switch over the past year and a half, publishing the likes of <a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/games/switch-eshop/runbow"><strong>Runbow</strong></a>, <a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/games/switch-eshop/slime-san"><strong>Slime-san</strong></a>, <a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/games/switch-eshop/inner_world"><strong>The Inner World</strong></a>, <a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/games/switch-eshop/bridge_constructor_portal"><strong>Bridge Constructor Portal</strong></a>, and <a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/games/switch-eshop/earth_atlantis"><strong>Earth Atlantis</strong></a> to name a few. Now, the studio has got in touch to share some of its best and biggest games launching this year, and <em>four</em> of them are coming to Switch.</p>
<p>Some of these have already previously been confirmed, but we now have updated release windows and information for each title. So, shall we?</p>
<h2>Trüberbrook</h2>
<p><strong>Release:</strong> Mid-March</p>
<p>A highly-stylised graphic adventure arriving on all platforms, <strong><a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/games/switch-eshop/truberbrook">Trüberbrook</a></strong> comes complete with its very own ‘Interrogation’ trailer (which we’ve included below). The blurb sets the scene for this one:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>“The past few weeks a lot has happened in our little Trüberbrook: Most of the villagers have been given their voices, all the houses, squares and secret science labs have been built and the team is about to go on a great journey…”</p>
</blockquote>

<h2>Silver Chains</h2>
<p><strong>Release</strong><strong>:</strong> Q3 2019</p>
<p>The debut title from developer Cracked Heads Games, <strong><a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/games/switch-eshop/silver_chains">Silver Chains</a></strong> is a first-person horror coming to Switch a little later in the year, slightly after its Q2 release for PC. The game uses Unreal Engine 4 to bring to life the “hauntingly beautiful” interiors of an early 20th century English manor. This Victorian architecture is said to play its part in creating an eerie atmosphere throughout.</p>
