So, here we go. ININ Games and Smallthing Studios just dropped a story trailer for Simon The Sorcerer Origins. Yep, that’s right—for the Nintendo Switch. Honestly, I wasn’t expecting this, but it took me back. This game is like a blast from the past, except… not really. It’s more like a prequel. Weird, huh?
Anyway, so it’s officially licensed by Adventure Soft Publishing. Fancy that. This one sets the scene a few weeks before the original, with all the cartoon chaos you’d expect. The devs are rolling out seamless real-time sequences, magic, puzzles—the whole shebang. They’ve said it’ll finally unravel some of those mysteries that left fans scratching their heads way back when. I mean, who doesn’t love a good mystery?
And get this—Simon’s OG voice actors are back! Chris Barrie in English, Erik Borner in German. Oh, and the cherry on top? Rick Astley is doing a number for the soundtrack. “Together Forever,” if you can believe it. I mean, will anyone ever give up loving that?
Mark your calendars—Simon The Sorcerer Origins is dropping both in stores and on the Nintendo eShop worldwide. Save the date: 28 October 2025. Feels like forever away, but it’ll sneak up on us.
So, yeah. There it is. An old classic with a fresh spin—or rewind, I guess. Can’t wait to see how it all ties together.
