Paper Mario-inspired Bug Fables sets console release

Everlasting Sapling coming to Switch, PS4 and Xbox One in May

Developer Moonsprout Games has confirmed its Paper Mario-inspired RPG Bug Fables: The Everlasting Sapling will be released digitally on May 28 for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.

Originally released for PC in November, Bug Fables is described as “a paper style adventure-RPG that follows the story of three small heroes on their quest in Bugaria to find the legendary treasure that can grant immortality.”

The game began life as a successful campaign on Indiegogo and received favourable reviews on Metacritic (although there are very few at the time of publishing).

It will carry a digital price of $24.99 on consoles. Pre-orders for Switch and Xbox One will be available on May 14.
