JUNE 26, 2025: LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM / BUSAN, KOREA — Sunscorched Studios and Dark Product are proud to announce that Ratshaker™ on Nintendo Switch™, the unhinged horror game that took the PC world by storm, will make its console debut exclusively in Japan starting June 26, 2025.
Rebuilt from the nest up for Nintendo Switch™, Ratshaker™ uses the Joy-Con™ controllers' advanced motion sensors to deliver a hilariously immersive experience. For the first time ever, players can physically shake their Joy-Con™ to shake the RAT—an absurd, satisfying mechanic brought to life with detailed motion input.
What Is Ratshaker™? At its core, Ratshaker™ is a satirical, physics-based first-person horror game about solving puzzles the old-fashioned way—by grabbing the RAT and shaking the ever-loving squeak out of it. It's weird. It's dark. And somehow, it's deeply cathartic.
Nintendo Switch™ Features Include: · Motion-Powered Pest Control – Shake your Joy-Con™ to physically control your in-game rat. · Hyper-Realistic RAT Physics™ – Every flail, flop, and squeal has been finely tuned. · Effortless Pest Removal – Just grab, shake, and watch as your "problems" disappear. · Your rat responds to every shake... sometimes unexpectedly. · No Traps. No Mess. (Some Guilt.) – A clean conscience not included. · Portable Pest Control – Take your rat-shaking adventures anywhere with Nintendo Switch™'s handheld mode.
A Darkly Hilarious Journey RATSHAKER™ is the fun and quirky solution to all your rat problems! Hold on to the RAT, shake your Joy-Con™, and watch life's problems disappear! How far can you go?
This is your chance to shake, rattle, and roll in the most ridiculous way possible—exclusively on Nintendo Switch™ in Japan.
