My Time at Evershine, the first officially confirmed game for the upcoming Switch 2 console, has smashed its Kickstarter funding goal with 23 days remaining in the campaign. The game, developed by Pathea Games, set an initial target of US$200,000 (£149,583) but has raised an impressive US$1,561,080 (£1,167,556) at the time of writing, thanks to over 17,000 backers.
Initial goal surpassed with stretch goals unlocked
Pathea Games has also unlocked several stretch goals, and its initial funding target was quickly surpassed. These include the addition of a character from My Time at Sandrock, a previous game by the developer, who will bring a unique story quest to My Time at Evershine. Backers can also look forward to 10 new photo poses, a mysterious hidden stretch goal, and the surprising addition of adjustable character height, giving players more control over their avatars.
The success of the Kickstarter campaign reflects the strong interest in My Time at Evershine and its potential to be one of the standout titles on the upcoming Switch 2. While Nintendo has not officially released any details on the console, Pathea Games has already hinted that the game will be available for next-gen Nintendo platforms when they launch.
Launch date speculation and Switch 2
There has yet to be an official launch date for My Time at Evershine. However, the game could be released towards the end of 2025 or early 2026. Since details about the Switch 2 console are still scarce, fans must wait for further announcements from Nintendo to learn more about the platform and the games accompanying its launch.
My Time at Evershine is shaping up to be a major release for Pathea Games and has already gathered a substantial following. With just over three weeks left in the Kickstarter campaign, the project will likely continue attracting more backers, further expanding the game's content and features.

The immense support from fans highlights the excitement around My Time at Evershine and the growing anticipation for the Switch 2. As the campaign continues, the team at Pathea Games will likely provide more details on the game's features and the potential for further stretch goals.
