Little Kitty, Big City: The Switch Game where you can become a cat
The worry that Switch players often have is that some very hit indie games aren't making their way to the Nintendo Switch. A good example of this is Stray, another cat-centric game that was released on Steam, but not on the Switch.
Nintendo gamers have their own niche of gaming, but there's something very comforting about being able to cuddle up with a hot drink and your handheld console, even after all these years. When game releases overtake the Switch release charts, it can be discouraging.
Some cozy games from the past couple of years were only released on the PC, such as Spirit City: Lofi Sessions, Chill Town and I Am Future: Cozy Apocalypse Survival. That's not to say that Switch users are missing out on comfortable games, but we sure missed Stray, which is still popular nearly two years after its launch.
Luckily, Little Kitty, Big City will be available on the Nintendo Switch and on Steam the second it's released on May 9.
