Fans of the popular Wingspan board game are sure to welcome the news that the immersive pastime will soon be launched on the Nintendo Switch video game console for play anytime or anywhere.
The board game was originally created by Elizabeth Hargrave with vibrant artwork by Natalia Rojas, Ana Maria Martinez Jaramillo, and Beth Sobel. The game works by having players assigned birds that they must nurture over the course of four rounds to help them flourish in the right habitats to receive points at the end of the game. The game is likely to launch in the spring, but no information on release date or pricing has been announced just yet.
Creator Elizabeth Hargrave spoke on the new game to Polygon saying, "I’ve had a chance to playtest it and I’m so, so happy about the implementation. It’s true to the game, but with beautiful little tweaks that bring the birds to life.”
