The first confirmed Switch 2 game, My Time at Evershine, smashes the Kickstarter goal with 23 days to go

My Time at Evershine, the first confirmed Switch 2 game, smashes its US$200,000 goal on Kickstarter with 23 days remaining and new features unlocked.

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 (ยฃ149,583) but has raised an impressive US$1,561,080 (ยฃ1,167,556) 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.

Development progress and fan support

The Kickstarter campaign for My Time at Evershine still has time to grow. With the amount raised exceeding expectations, the development team will have more resources to enhance the gameโ€™s final product. Fans eagerly await updates on the game’s progress, especially concerning the new content unlocked through stretch goals.

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 gameโ€™s features and the potential for further stretch goals.

For now, itโ€™s clear that My Time at Evershine is on track to become a highly anticipated title for next-gen Nintendo consoles. Fans eager to see how the project evolves will closely follow its development.
