Dinkum is OUT NOW on Nintendo Switch – The Chill Aussie Life Sim We’ve All Been Waiting For!

Publisher: Medussa.NetUpdate: 1970-01-01

G’day mates! The sun-baked, kangaroo-filled survival crafter that took PC by storm has finally hopped over to Nintendo Switch. Indie legend James Bendon and publisher Krafton just dropped Dinkum on the eShop TODAY, bringing that laid-back Australian outback vibe straight to your handheld.

If you’ve ever wanted to trade zombie apocalypses and hardcore looting for digging for opals, wrestling crocs, and turning a dusty patch of bushland into the cosiest town this side of the billabong – this is your game.

Why Dinkum on Switch Feels Like a Perfect Match

  • Fully optimized touch controls + revamped UI made-for-Switch UI
  • Runs buttery-smooth in both handheld and docked mode
  • Local wireless + online co-op (grab three mates and build the ultimate outback empire)
  • The same endless chill loop: chop trees, mine deep dark holes, fish in sparkling rivers, farm crops, raise chooks, and befriend quirky townsfolk

From barren wilderness to thriving community, every day feels fresh with seasonal events, underground dungeons, hidden ruins, and over 300 items to craft. It’s Stardew Valley meets Animal Crossing with a heavy dose of true-blue Aussie wildlife and humour.

The Little Indie That Could

Solo-dev James Bendon released Dinkum in Early Access back in July 2022. Fast-forward to now:

  • Over 1.4 million copies sold worldwide
  • 92% Very Positive on Steam
  • Full 1.0 launch in April 2025
  • Just got nominated for Best Multiplayer Game at the 2025 Unity Awards

Grab Your Akubra and Jump In

  • Available RIGHT NOW on the Nintendo eShop
  • Free demo so you can try before you buy
  • Physical editions coming soon to select regions

Whether you’re kicking back on the couch or taking the Switch on a real-life camping trip, Dinkum’s never-ending outback adventure is the perfect cozy escape.

So chuck another shrimp on the barbie, crank up the didgeridoo playlist, and start building your dream bush town. The billabong’s calling!
