Story Trailer Released for Simon The Sorcerer Origins

So, there’s this thing about Simon The Sorcerer that’s coming out—yeah, it’s a game, in case you haven’t heard. ININ Games and some folks at Smallthing Studios (I think that’s their name, anyway) dropped a story trailer for Simon The Sorcerer Origins. And yep, it’s heading to Nintendo Switch. Pretty cool if you ask me.

Now, here’s where it gets kinda nostalgic. This is the official prequel of the classic point-and-click stuff we used to play. Takes you back, right? It’s like, the storyline’s set just a tad before the first one—weeks before. Honestly, feels like time travel. Or maybe I’m just romanticizing it. Could be either.

And they went all in on that old-school cartoon vibe. Think seamless sequences and a bunch of puzzles—magic too, of course. Tying it all with a story? Yeah, they’re trying to wrap up those loose ends fans have been mumbling about since forever. Which is, frankly, intriguing.

Oh, fun fact! The voice actors from the OG game are back! Chris Barrie doing English, Erik Borner for the German fans. Which is kinda rad because original voices bring all the feels back. Plus, wait for it—Rick Astley. Yes, the Rick Astley is on the soundtrack with “Together Forever.” Can’t say that name without imagining a certain dance move. Or is that just me?

Anyway, you can get your hands on Simon The Sorcerer Origins both as a box on the shelf and digitally on the Nintendo eShop. Worldwide, which is sweet. Mark the date—28 October 2025. Feels like a lifetime away but also not. Weird how time does that.

So, yeah, it’s happening. Get ready or don’t, but honestly, it’s a bit thrilling, right?
