Platforming Classic Putty World Returns On Nintendo Switch 2

System 3 has announced that Putty World is in development for Nintendo Switch 2, which it describes as “an ambitious reimagining of its classic Putty series.”

This will bring together the worlds of Putty, Super Putty and Putty Squad in one connected experience, where, as you progress, you will unlock recreated and updated levels that take inspiration from other games in the series.

There will be “75 new or extensively updated levels, with more than 45 new enemies already added.” That means that you will encounter new opponents, expanded enemy behaviours and reactions, and additional surprises that will include end-of-level bosses and dedicated boss battles.

The developer has also given Putty “considerably more personality and expression,” with more than 50 facial expression combinations that help him react dynamically to everything that happens around him.

“With Putty World, we are not simply asking how we can reproduce a game from the past, we are asking what we might have created in the mid-1990s if we had access to the technology available today,” explains System 3 founder and CEO Mark Cale.

“The original Putty games were shaped by the imagination of their creators and the capabilities of the hardware at the time. Our ‘What If?’ concept allows us to revisit that same creative vision without those technical limitations, combining the character, humour and personality of the originals with the fluidity, responsiveness and visual detail now possible on Nintendo Switch 2.”

Putty World will be released digitally on the Nintendo eShop for Nintendo Switch 2 worldwide in Q2 2027.
