Iconic horror game gets a physical Switch release, but you need to be quick

Bendy and the Dark Revival gets a physical Switch release soon, and it lets us creep even further into the world of Joey Drew Studios, which you might recognize if you’re a fan of the Bioshock games. The sequel to the much-loved Bendy and the Ink Machine has plenty of jump scares, hauntingly creepy art with eyes that can’t help but follow your every move, and new weapons and abilities evolved from the original game. But if you want to get your hands on a collectible physical copy of this iconic horror game, you need to be quick. While pre-orders are now open, stock is limited and there’s no guarantee that Bendy and his terrifyingly cheery grin will make a tangible return in the future. The Dark Revival physical edition is due to launch on both the Nintendo Switch and the PS5 on September 26, 2025, with the digital release coming to both consoles this summer on July 11, 2025.
