<p>Campo Santo’s award-winning 2016 title <strong><a class="external" href="http://www.nintendolife.com/games/switch-eshop/firewatch">Firewatch</a></strong> was revealed for the Nintendo Switch earlier this year in April and has since gone missing. When it was <a class="external" href="http://www.nintendolife.com/news/2018/04/pack_your_hiking_gear_because_firewatch_is_coming_to_nintendo_switch">originally announced</a>, it was said to be arriving at some point in the near future. With 2018 nearly over, it’s left us wondering if it will still show up before the end of the year.</p>
<p>According to Campo Santo co-founder Jake Rodkin, the game is “very close” to release. Rodkin delivered this information in a reply to a Twitter user asking about the availability of the game on the Switch. This followed his original tweet about how “ridiculously nice” the Switch version of the game looked. Here’s the initial tweet and latest screenshots:</p>

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p><span lang="en" dir="ltr">Sometimes I look at Firewatch screenshots again (in this case, from the Switch branch of the game) and am reminded that Jane, Olly, Paolo, Will, Ben and our contract prop modelers made the game look ridiculously nice. <a href="https://t.co/YYU9XGQW2h">pic.twitter.com/YYU9XGQW2h</a></span>— Jake Rodkin (@ja2ke) <a href="https://twitter.com/ja2ke/status/1060711291017285632?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">November 9, 2018</a></p></blockquote>

<p>If you haven’t heard about Firewatch before, it’s a traditional ‘walking simulator’ mixed with a linear narrative and set in Shoshone National Forest located in the US. You take on the role of Henry who is a fire lookout. Being in complete isolation, the only person Henry has contact with is his supervisor Delilah via radio communication. Take a look at the game’s original 2016 trailer below:</p>
