Total Chaos Trailer Drops

IGN posted a new Nintendo Switch 2 trailer for *Total Chaos* on April 15, putting the survival-horror game back in front of players two weeks before its Switch 2 release. (ign.com) Publisher Apogee Entertainment and developer Trigger Happy Interactive said the Switch 2 version arrives in North America on April 29 for $24.99, with other regions to follow “in the coming days.” (gematsu.com) The new version targets 1080p in docked play and 720p in handheld play, with selectable performance and unlocked frame-rate modes aimed at 60 frames per second. It also supports Joy-Con 2 mouse controls and gyro aiming. (gematsu.com) *Total Chaos* is a first-person survival-horror game set on Fort Oasis, a ruined coal-mining island where players scavenge materials, craft weapons, and manage limited supplies while fighting monsters. Apogee says the campaign runs across nine chapters. (nintendoeverything.com) The Switch 2 port is not launching as a stripped-down edition. Apogee said it includes the New Game+ update content already released on other platforms, including an alternate ending and a new enemy called The Hunter. (nintendoeverything.com) The game already exists outside Nintendo hardware. *Total Chaos* first launched on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and personal computer storefronts on November 20, 2025, before this Switch 2 version was announced. (gematsu.com) Its history goes back further than that. Apogee says *Total Chaos* began as a total conversion mod for *DOOM II* before becoming a standalone commercial release from Sam Prebble, the developer behind *Turbo Overkill*. (gematsu.com) The trailer also lands as Nintendo’s second system keeps adding outside publishers after launch. Video Games Chronicle counted 46 third-party games announced for Switch 2 in Nintendo’s April 2, 2025 reveal presentation, with 17 available on launch day June 5, 2025. (videogameschronicle.com) Some of those third-party games have already found an audience on the platform. GamesIndustry.biz, citing Newzoo data for the United States eShop in June 2025, said *Deltarune* led launch-window third-party titles by units sold, with *Fortnite* topping revenue. (gamesindustry.biz) So the April 15 trailer is doing two jobs at once: selling a horror game set in a collapsing island nightmare, and filling in another slot on a Switch 2 release calendar that now stretches well beyond Nintendo’s own series.
