Turbo Kid video game announced for Nintendo Switch

The video game adaptation of Turbo Kid will arrive on the Nintendo Switch this summer.

Revealed today, the game will head to the Switch on August 5. A release date trailer can be seen here. The game is a continuation of the 2015 Turbo Kid movie starring Munro Chambers, Laurence Leboeuf, and Michael Ironside. A sequel to the film is currently in development.

A synopsis for Turbo Kid reads:

Set in a retro-futuristic nightmare vision of the 80s, Turbo Kid is set in a world where humanity has broken down, water is scarce, tyrannical warlords roam the Wasteland, and bikes are the steeds of choice for would-be saviors. Massive worlds crammed full of surprises and danger await as you upgrade and build, blasting, slashing, running, jumping, crawling, and yes, riding your way to victory while immersing you in an original soundtrack provided by the masters of electronica, Le Matos!

Turbo Kid is on sale for 30% off on Steam for the Canadian Game Sale. The deal ends on July 10.
