Just last week, Xbox announced that they would be bringing four of their console exclusives over to new platforms. At the time, they didn’t reveal which four titles, but many have speculated, and it seems that one of those speculations has been proven right, as today, during the Nintendo Direct, the Xbox officially confirmed that Rare’s online survival action-adventure, Grounded, is coming to the Nintendo Switch on April 16, with Obsidian Entertainment’s Pentiment arriving tomorrow on the platform.

We can’t say we’re surprised to see these being the first Xbox exclusives to hit the Nintendo Switch, though whether or not they come to PlayStation is another question. If they do, we expect an announcement real soon.

Here’s a brief description on what the game is about (via Steam):

ABOUT THIS GAME

From Obsidian, this game is a historical narrative-driven game focusing on character development, heavily stylized art, and choice-driven storytelling in early 16th century Bavaria. Players will play as Andreas Maler, a clever illustrator caught up in a series of murders in Tassing and Kiersau Abbey over the course of twenty five years. Players will be responsible for conducting their own investigation to decide the fate of the community, but each decision will have lasting consequences and inexorably draws Andreas closer to the center of an underlying conspiracy.

Grounded will be available on the Nintendo Switch on April 16, with Pentiment launching tomorrow.
