The Switch eShop is about to welcome one of the more bizarre indie hits of recent years, as Wuppo: Definitive Edition is set to launch on the console next month.

The game has sold over 100,000 units across Steam, PS4 & Xbox One, making it all the more worthwhile for developer Knuist & Perzik to work on a definitive release. The new version was confirmed for a 5th September release on Steam earlier today (check out the video above) but we also have it on good authority from the dev team that a Switch version will be available on the very same date.

The base game had you playing as an exiled 'wum' looking for a new home in a weird and wonderful world filled with strange creatures, puzzles, monsters, and political chaos. The new definitive release adds new console-exclusive content, including an all-new co-op mode, and an additional game mode called 'Boss Run' will be patched in later.

Wuppo has amassed an impressive number of 'overwhelmingly positive' reviews on Steam, so we imagine this could end up doing rather well on Nintendo's machine.
