<p><strong><a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/games/switch-eshop/steamworld_dig_2">SteamWorld Dig 2</a></strong> arrived recently; it’s certainly one of the most high-profile download arrivals on Switch to date, and we think it’s <a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/reviews/switch-eshop/steamworld_dig_2">rather brilliant</a>. It’s bigger and more ambitious than its predecessor, and in some ways reflects the growing confidence of Image &amp; Form that started to show with a vengeance in <strong><a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/games/wiiu-eshop/steamworld_heist">SteamWorld Heist</a></strong>.</p>
<p>In any case it’s had a successful launch, with the game now also on PC and PS4 / Vita as well as the Switch. It’s been doing well in the eShop charts, too, sitting top or near the top in various countries.</p>
<p>The developer has now confirmed in a press release that Dig 2 has delivered the IP’s best launch to date.</p>
<blockquote>
<p>Players are having a blast as well, with the <strong>98% approval rating on Steam</strong> being the obvious proof. Everyone’s praise results in impressive sales; I’m happy to announce that SWD2 is <strong>the biggest launch in SteamWorld history</strong>, selling faster than any game we’ve ever made before it. On Switch it’s <strong>topping the charts </strong>in as good as every country. In less than a week we’ve already earned back most of the game’s total development budget. Twenty or so people for almost a year and a half… You do the math!</p>
