Beyond confirmed for physical release on Switch

Lunar Lander: Beyond will be receiving a physical release on Switch, Atari has announced.

Two different versions will be available. In addition to a standard copy, Atari is readying a deluxe edition. The latter includes an exclusive steelbook, a 146 page softcover art book, and the physical game with all contents packaged inside a collectible tuck-in box.

Here’s some information about Lunar Lander: Beyond, which is a new game based on the 1970s fan-favorite title:

As a newly appointed captain of the Pegasus corporation, you must guide a roster of colorful pilots, eclectic advisors and state-of-the-art landers through a taxing series of missions. Deliver cargo, retrieve resources, and rescue stranded pilots as you navigate a mysterious universe of moons and planets.

It’s a thankless job, replete with tension and danger, and it takes a psychological toll on your crew. But someone has to keep this unseen lifeblood of the interplanetary economy moving.

When a mysterious portal appears, leading to a strange, unexplored planet, you will find you are on a collision course with some sinister truths that lie unseen behind the universe. Poor flying and fatigue will stress your pilots, and can lead to sensory illusions … the bane of long-haul solo pilots. They may start to see things that may not be real – is that a mine or a fish? And what’s with those celestial pink elephants?!

With multiple pilots, four ships and a dozen upgrades to collect, you can get the job done if you can manage it all … if not, the stakes are high, and not just for your career.

Key Features

• Deep Campaign: Tackle 30 missions across five moons and planets: Nueva Luna, Mars, Venus, Ganymede, and the mysterious Etimus
