Trine series

Last year, Frozenbyte announced that the entire Trine series was coming to the Nintendo Switch, with the first one released on the Nintendo eShop on the same day as the announcement. And today, they announced that the second game, Trine 2: Complete Story, will be released on February 18th on the Nintendo eShop.

For those of you who prefer to buy games at retail, here’s some good news for you: Trine Series 1-3 (which includes all 3 games) will be released this Spring in North America, courtesy of GameTrust (GameStop’s publishing arm). This confirms Trine 3: Artifacts of Power will be released this Spring, though we don’t know if it will be simultaneously with the Trilogy or not.

Here’s the trailer for Trine Series 1-3:
