After selling 1.4m copies on Steam, Stardew Valley-inspired Dinkum hits Nintendo Switch this November


"I think Dinkum is the kind of game that I could update forever."

Per a release from Bendon and Krafton, the Nintendo Switch version has been optimised for handheld play (with adjustments made to control schemes, and UI/UX), and all major content will be available across both platforms. We're used to seeing a lot of life sims and farming games during Nintendo Direct showcases, but with this one, it at least seems like there's an in-built audience that's been waiting for a while to see Dinkum escape the exclusive realms of the PC. And as we're seeing ConcernedApe slow down development on Stardew Valley (well, in theory, at least), Bendon hints that Dinkum could live a lot longer.
