Obakeidoro 2 Coming to Nintendo Switch on August 6, 2026

The anticipation builds as Freestyle Inc. announces the highly awaited launch of Obakeidoro 2 for Nintendo Switch™, set to hit the shelves at 22:00 on August 6, 2026. This exciting news comes alongside the opening of pre-orders today on the Nintendo eShop.

The newest installment of this unique asymmetric chase game features thrilling gameplay where players can choose between the role of a human or a ghost. A massive update will coincide with the launch of the Nintendo Switch version, which will surely bring fresh experiences to both new players and returning fans.

What is Obakeidoro 2?

Obakeidoro 2 is a non-linear cat-and-mouse game where players split into two teams: ghosts and humans. The objective is clear—ghosts must capture all humans within a 3-minute time limit to claim victory. In contrast, if even one human manages to evade capture, they emerge triumphant. This dynamic gameplay provides thrills, excitement, and strategic planning for both sides.

Key Features:

• - New Gameplay Experience: Players can enjoy a sense of thrill in escaping as humans, while experiencing a rush when capturing them as ghosts. The game allows up to 8 players to connect either locally or online, making it a fun choice for parties and gatherings.
• - Engaging Storyline: Players will find themselves in a school that appears eerily transformed with strange hallways and odd bulletin board decorations. The mystery leads to a thrilling journey in a world filled with quirky surprises. Can players find their way back home?

Diverse Game Modes

to Suit Your Style:
1. Free Match: An online match mode with players worldwide, offering changing maps every hour.
2. Room Match: Create private rooms to play with friends, with password protection for added security.
