Elypse - Collector's Edition Nintendo Switch

Dark, punishing, and dripping with atmosphere. The Elypse Collector's Edition for Nintendo Switch is limited to just 600 copies, making it one of the more scarce physical releases in the Switch's growing library of precision platformers.

Elypse is an ultra-dynamic 2D action platformer with a metroidvania soul, developed by Hot Chili Games. If Celeste and Hollow Knight had a conversation about level design over drinks, this game would be the result. The Dash and Slash system at its core demands that you read your environment and your enemies before committing to movement, creating a rhythm of analysis and execution that feels deeply satisfying when it clicks. The world is an infernal abyss, and your nimble character must navigate traps, hostile creatures, and environmental hazards that punish carelessness.

New skills and abilities unlock as you progress, expanding your options for traversal and combat. The environments themselves are striking, layered with a gloomy atmosphere that makes exploration feel genuinely foreboding.

The collector's edition wraps everything in a package that reflects the game's identity. A reversible cover, the original soundtrack on USB drive, a keychain, a sheet of stickers, and an exclusive cardboard sleeve round out the set. Published by Pix'n Love Games as number 027 in their catalog, this carries the quality of presentation their releases are known for. At 600 copies, this is the kind of limited run that quietly disappears while collectors are busy watching flashier releases. If precision platformers are your thing and your Switch shelf has room for something with real edge, Elypse belongs there.
