Console Games, Switch eShop

Enchanted Portals Finally Gets a Release Date

After four years since its initial announcement, Enchanted Portals, a 2D platformer heavily inspired by Cuphead, finally has a release date. Publisher Perp Games has announced that the game will be launching on September 6th, 2023, for the Switch (including PC and other consoles).

Initially, Enchanted Portals gained attention for its striking resemblance to Cuphead. However, the game has since incorporated a variety of art styles and level designs in an effort to differentiate itself. In the release date trailer, the similarities are still evident, with comparable jumping and shooting animations and a hand-drawn art style.

Although a physical edition for PS5 has been announced for September 28th, there is speculation that Switch owners may have the opportunity to obtain one in the future.

What to Expect from Enchanted Portals

Enchanted Portals, developed by Xixo Game Studio, follows the adventure of rookie magicians Bobby and Penny, who find themselves trapped between dimensions. You must help them battle their way back to their own dimension and reclaim the Magic Book as they journey through enchanting worlds.

Featuring catchy music, charming old-timey art, and non-stop comedy, Enchanted Portals offers a co-op 2D platformer experience that will keep you engaged. Whether you’re playing solo or with a friend, the game promises fast-paced and whimsical action. Join Bobby and Penny on their quest and discover where the adventure takes you!

The game offers the following features:

  • CO-OP and SOLO modes.
  • A collection of challenging PLATFORM STAGES set in various dimensions.
  • Thrilling BOSS BATTLES with unique and colorful settings and multiple phases.
  • A powerful arsenal of SPELLS and MOVES, including fire, ice, and wind abilities, double-jump for extra air control, a magic bubble for defense, and the ability to fly and swim.
  • Players can be affected by a variety of STATUS EFFECTS, such as jump restriction and inability to attack, which adds an extra challenge to gameplay.
