[quineotio]

Any updates about release? will it happen in December?

This is for 2.1 I think. And I think the question was about the Space Age on switch 2.

Yes, scrolling up it does seem that that's what he was asking. The quote was indeed about 2.1.

I meant the release of Factorio on the Nintendo Switch 2 along with the Space Age expansion.

How about a comeback of the cut Aquilo aliens?
I have been curious about those since their original concept art.
(Although I'd assume we will never see them, due to gameplay trouble)

I'm excited to play Space Age again! I really want to play without being temped to do the LDS shuffle. I've done it both times I played since it's just so powerful.

The Switch 2 Edition has been dated for December 22 release on the Nintendo eShop, but the Space Age expansion is not listed on the eShop yet. Are these still planned for a simultaneous release?

I assume so, but just wondering.

Space Age is now also in the US eShop: https://www.nintendo.com/us/store/produ ... -switch-2/

Somehow the whole Switch 2 upgrade is not visible yet in the European eShop: https://www.nintendo.com/en-gb/Search/S ... o&f=147393
