Focus Hime Interactive and Cyanide Studio officially released Call of Cthulhu last October on PC and two out of the three consoles, and while it may not have been the most successful launch in recent memory, players have found themselves enjoying the narrative adventure to some degree. That said, it has been revealed by the publisher in an announcement that the Lovecraftian horror title will officially be making its way to the Nintendo Switch, and it is set to arrive before the end of this year along with Focus Home’s other horror title Vampyr.
Not a lot of details accompanied the announcement of the Call of Cthulhu port for Nintendo Switch. However, it is known that Saber Interactive is in charge of both the Cthulhu and Vampyr ports, in addition to their work on developing the upcoming World War Z game, which is set to arrive later this week on April 16th.
