Squirrel with a Gun locks and loads for Switch 2 on November 18, bringing its chaotic rodent rampage to a new audience. Publisher Maximum Entertainment and developer Dee Dee Creations confirmed the offbeat sandbox shooter and puzzle platformer is making the jump after launching earlier on Windows PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5. A fresh trailer spotlights why this pint-sized menace became a viral sensation.
Part slapstick action, part clever puzzler, Squirrel with a Gun hands you an arsenal and dares you to cause mayhem in pursuit of golden acorns. You’ll claw, bite, and blast your way out of a secret underground facility, square off against suited Agents, and turn everyday streets into your personal playground.
Highlights players can expect:
– Gun-toting chaos with a twist: Discover just how unpredictable a squirrel can be when it gets its paws on firepower. Mix up close-quarters scrapping with over-the-top gunplay as you chase down precious acorns.
– Upgrades, bosses, and big explosions: Find secret bunkers, upgrade your weapons, and take on elite bosses. Yes, you can blow up a tank. Swap between loadouts and experiment with 12 distinct enemy takedown types.
– Puzzle rooms built for creativity: Collect golden acorns by conquering intricate challenge rooms. Use your firearms in inventive ways, including weapon recoil to reach new heights and unlock hidden areas.
– A nutty sandbox to explore: See the world from a squirrel’s-eye view. Zip around in a toy car, pester pedestrians for treats or pets (or mug them if you’re feeling extra mischievous), and earn cosmetics to perfect your squirrely style.
Whether you’re here for physics-driven stunts, stealthy Agent takedowns, or the sheer comedy of a squirrel wielding a handgun, this indie hit is primed for pick-up-and-play sessions as well as deep completionist runs. With the Switch 2 release on November 18, it’s the perfect time to dive in, experiment with new routes and upgrades, and chase every last golden acorn.
