There he meets Delilah, who is your main point of human contact throughout the adventure. Firewatch went on to be a big success, winning awards and eventually being optioned for a movie adaptation.
The announcement on Campo Santo’s website reads, “Imagine: The sounds of a babbling brook, a cool mountain breeze blowing through the timber. And in your hands, your trusty Nintendo Switch.” The announcement doesn’t include a release date, but it does say that Firewatch is coming to the Switch this coming spring.
Campo Santo’s next game is called In the Valley of the Gods , which is current set for a PC release in 2019.
