A "reworked" release of OFF is coming to Steam and Switch today from Fangamer and Mortis Ghost. This release is said to stay true to the original vision, but does include new bosses from designer Mortis.
The digital versions are out now on Switch and Steam with a physical release coming for the Switch in Q1 2026. The MSRP is $14.99 but there is a week-long launch discount at 15% off.
And no, I don't apologize for that headline. I'm sure there are at least a dozen other outlets that used the exact same one.
[quote]For nearly two decades, OFF has been more than just a game: it’s been a creative spark for countless indie developers, shaping the tone, style, and ambition of some of the most well-known indie RPGs. Its haunting atmosphere, unconventional storytelling, and unapologetically strange world have left fingerprints on everything from minimalist horror adventures to surreal narrative experiments.
This reimagined release isn’t just a chance to relive a cult classic on modern platforms, it’s an opportunity for a new generation to purify the zones with The Batter and journey into a bizarre, monochromatic world where reality feels just a little… OFF.
About the Game
Take control of the Batter as he seeks to purify an uncanny and hopeless world haunted by specters, guided by a cryptic, grinning cat called The Judge.
As they move the Batter through increasingly confused zones, a farm that extracts metal from the inside of cattle, an amusement park full of people too frightened to enjoy themselves, and a sugar factory with ominous smokestacks, players must reckon with The Batter’s mission themselves.
(re)Play the definitive version of a beloved cult classic, reimagined for modern platforms!
