‘Nintendo absolutely hated this’: Two unrelated games called Piece By Piece are launching together in a Switch bundle
Two unrelated games called *Piece by Piece* are set to launch on Nintendo Switch on the same day, and will also be sold together in a bundle. Publisher No More Robots agreed to publish the second game after its developer said it could not afford a Switch release, turning a naming clash into an opportunity for both studios.
Gamkat’s game is a cosy repair game featuring woodland animals, while Neon Polygons’ version is a puzzle platformer with 100 levels built around connecting and disconnecting jigsaw pieces. Both arrive on the eShop on 25 November and can be bought separately or together. Nintendo’s certification team reportedly raised the duplicate titles repeatedly; the bundle costs $20.99 / £17.85, with discounts on all three options running until 2 December.
In short
- Two games called *Piece by Piece* launch on Switch on 25 November.
- No More Robots is publishing both titles.
- A discounted double bundle costs $20.99 / £17.85.
Explained simply
Nintendo Switch games are sold through the eShop, where players can buy digital titles separately or in bundles. Games usually have distinct names, but different developers can sometimes choose the same title.
Gamkat and Neon Polygons are separate studios making different games: one centres on woodland animals repairing objects, while the other is a puzzle platformer built around jigsaw pieces. Publisher No More Robots agreed to help bring Neon Polygons’ game to Switch after the developer said it could not afford the release.
The case matters because both games are due on the same platform on the same day, so buyers could easily confuse them. Selling them together gives players another way to tell the titles apart and offers both studios a shared release.
