A mysterious, dark game was announced during the September 9, 2026 Nintendo Direct. Set to launch in 2027, discover Onyx - The Dark Grip, a title developed by Bloober Team for Nintendo Switch 2. While we wait for more details about this Switch 2 exclusive, here is the trailer.
Survive as the vessel, intervene as a god. You play the enigmatic Entity, steering the actions of a lone traveler who has arrived in a desolate ghost town. Wield your powers to bend the environment and keep your puppet from slipping into the depths of madness.
These images are intriguing, but they reveal little about this title... A human and a supernatural, almost ethereal creature. Two characters who need each other in a dangerous, perhaps post-apocalyptic world... Nintendo is keeping a lid on the mystery for now around this supernatural horror game.
Step into the shoes of a supernatural being. Players can interact with the environment to guide and protect the human. We’ll need to battle other monsters and solve a range of puzzles to help the human survive and steer clear of slipping into madness...
Fans will have to wait to learn more about this new, highly intriguing game. We’re hoping for more details very soon. Discover the rest of the announcements from this September 2026 Nintendo Direct.
