Get ready for a bite-sized adventure with a whole lot of heart. Tinyware Games has officially announced that Misc. A Tiny Tale — their cozy 3D platformer filled with charm and Chibi-Robo! vibes — is landing on July 22, 2025 for PC (Steam) and Nintendo Switch, with full backwards compatibility on the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2.
If you’re craving some GameCube-era nostalgia with a modern indie twist, this one’s for you.
