The showcase kicked off with Simogo Legacy Collection, a compilation of Simogo’s first seven games, which will now be available for the first time on console and PC. From cute arcade novelties to innovative text-based thrillers and acclaimed fourth wall-breaking stories, Simogo Legacy Collection is an eclectic celebration of Simogo’s past, featuring faithful renditions of critically acclaimed games released on mobile platforms between 2010 and 2015. The games included—Kosmo Spin, Bumpy Road, Beat Sneak Bandit, Year Walk (and the Year Walk Companion), DEVICE 6, The Sailor’s Dream and SPL-T—have sold over 1.5 million copies and have won awards at the Independent Games Festival, Apple Design Awards and been nominated at the BAFTA and Game Developers Choice Awards. Additionally, Simogo Legacy Collection features bonus content with thoughtfully curated curios from Simogo’s wide-ranging history, including spin-off projects, music, image galleries, and playable prototypes. Simogo Legacy Collection launches December 2, 2025 on Nintendo Switch™, Nintendo Switch™ 2 and Steam for $14.99.

The studio also announced that it has started development of Nintendo Switch 2 Editions of the pop album game Sayonara Wild Hearts and the puzzling mystery Lorelei and the Laser Eyes. At their release both games received rave reviews, and have gone on to win awards at BAFTA and D.I.C.E, as well as nominations at the Game Awards, the Golden Joystick Awards, and the Hugo Awards. While more info about the new versions of the games was promised to be shared at a later date, it was revealed that Sayonara Wild Hearts and Lorelei and the Laser Eyes are planned to be released on Nintendo Switch 2 in early 2026 by publisher Annapurna Interactive.

In addition to the Nintendo Switch 2 Edition, Simogo also revealed plans to bring back Sayonara Wild Hearts to iOS, as the popular title left the subscription service Apple Arcade last year. Annapurna Interactive plans to release the game as a paid app on iOS in 2026.

Lastly, Simogo revealed the book Heartbeats, Dreams and Laser Eyes: 15 Years of Simogo by Lost In Cult, a UK-based independent publisher and design studio known for creating high-end videogame related physical artifacts. The book will not only be a traditional retrospective; it will also give an insight into how Simogo thinks, operates and works. Heartbeats, Dreams and Laser Eyes will feature essays by renowned writers, as well as interviews with Simogo and the many people the studio has worked with over the years. Heartbeats, Dreams and Laser Eyes is expected to ship in Q4 2026, and will have a Deluxe Edition, which will only be available to pre-order until January 2nd, 2026. The pre-order campaign for Heartbeats, Dreams and Laser Eyes: 15 Years of Simogo starts today.
