Sheltered is coming to Nintendo Switch on December 18th

Team 17 announced the release of Sheltered on Nintendo Switch! Sheltered will be available digitally through the Nintendo eShop from December 18th and will set you back £9.99/$14.99/€14.99 with a 20% discount for the launch week. On Nintendo Switch, Sheltered includes the base game plus the Surrounded and Stasis additional content.

Sheltered is a post-apocalyptic disaster management game. It gives a whole new meaning to the term “nuclear family”. After a global apocalypse, you protect your four other family members, with whom you live in a deserted underground shelter. You are responsible for their well-being and survival. Make one bad decision and a loved one is gone, forever.

Combat claustrophobia, radiation and mental exhaustion as you cling desperately to life in the cramped, cold underground shelter. Go explore the dangerous world outside and try gathering vital supplies to ensure your family’s survival. Also, pets! Choose between a dog, cat, fish, snake or horse as your loyal companion.
