Sea of Solitudewas initially released for Windows, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One back in 2019, and has recently appeared on theNintendo Switch in the form of a director’s cut edition. Many who have played throughSea of Solitudeknow it to be a deeply introspective look at emotions and mental illness and might have trouble imagining what a director’s cut of the game could possibly add that wasn’t in the original version. Now, thanks to a new trailer for the Switch version of the indie game, fans no longer have to guess.
For those who have not experienced the EA Original,Sea of Solitudefinds the player in control of a young woman named Kay whose personal demons take the form of real-world monsters. Much like fellowindiedarlings likeJourneyandSky: Children of the Light,Sea of Solitudeis equal parts video game and atmospheric cinema. Yet, whileSky: Children of the Lighthas been delayed for Switch, the newSea of Solitudetrailer shows off the already released Switch version of the cerebral adventure game in all its glory.

As for new content in the game, the trailer reveals that theSea of Solitudedirector’s cut will feature a new script, new voices, new cutscenes, as well as a photo mode and gyroscope support. Of course, as many games such asPikmin 3have had issues with gyro controlsin the past, Switch users may wish to forgo the gyro controls for the more traditional d-pad and thumb-stick.
Either way, with an art style reminiscent ofThe Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker,Sea of Solitudefeels right at home on a Nintendo console. Of course, PlayStation and Xbox users can download the game on their respective platforms, andSea of Solitudeis also available on the EA Accesssubscription service, but anyone wanting to play the director’s cut of the game will have to play it on the Switch.
