Adorable New Happy Birthdays Trailer for Nintendo Switch Shows Players How to Build

A new, three-minute long trailer has been released to promote Happy Birthdays, an upcoming title for the Nintendo Switch that is set for a worldwide release this year.

The game's concept is simple, but the execution is where they fun really happens: the player is challenged to build different cube-shaped worlds with growing ecosystems and assorted fauna. The tiny 'planets' in the game naturally evolve based on what the player chooses to build and how they maintain each world, which ultimately means that there's a lot to do every time they turn on the game, and managing it all is the key to winning.

Publisher Nippon Ichi Software announced the game's release on Nintendo Switch just a week ago during a major announcement live stream. Happy Birthdays doesn't exactly have a solid release date for the States or Europe, but it is pacing for some time this year worldwide, and its Japanese release for the Switch is already set for March 29th.

NiS recently released a short description of Happy Birthdays, originally titled Birthdays the Beginning, which you can check out below:
