15 AUGUST 2025 - Fangamer and Mortis Ghost are bringing OFF to modern platforms with a reworked release that stays true to the original vision, contributions from award-winning composers and brand-new bosses designed by Mortis himself.
OFF is now available on Nintendo Switch and Steam, with physical editions for Nintendo Switch expected in Q1 2026. The digital version of OFF will cost $14.99 (or regional equivalent) and will launch with a week-long 15% off discount on both Steam & the Nintendo eShop.
Also good to know: OFF has surpassed 160.000 wishlists on Steam and will be Steam Deck Verified from day one!
For nearly two decades, OFF has been more than just a game: it’s been a creative spark for countless indie developers, shaping the tone, style, and ambition of some of the most well-known indie RPGs. Its haunting atmosphere, unconventional storytelling, and unapologetically strange world have left fingerprints on everything from minimalist horror adventures to surreal narrative experiments.
This reimagined release isn’t just a chance to relive a cult classic on modern platforms, it’s an opportunity for a new generation to purify the zones with The Batter and journey into a bizarre, monochromatic world where reality feels just a little… OFF.
Going to Gamescom 2025 next week? You can find the Fangamer booth in Hall 5.1, booth A060 and talk to the devs there!

About the Game
Take control of the Batter as he seeks to purify an uncanny and hopeless world haunted by spectres, guided by a cryptic, grinning cat called The Judge.
As they move the Batter through increasingly confused zones, a farm that extracts metal from the inside of cattle, an amusement park full of people too frightened to enjoy themselves, and a sugar factory with ominous smokestacks, players must reckon with The Batter’s mission themselves.
