Sip Fisher is out now on Nintendo Switch

Fish a lot and enjoy the view on your Switch

Lots of upgrades to fish more with your giant Straw

Possibly the only cozy game with soulslike DNA is available now is out now on Switch, with a giant straw, a bucket, and a very big lake

MONTREAL, QUEBEC, CANADA, October 8, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Grab your bucket, because Sip Fisher is out now on Nintendo Switch! Alchemy Games ported and published the game for Nintendo Switch, bringing Syphon Software's PC hit, an IGF Best Student Game nominee, to the couch and the commute.

Here is the setup. You are Sip Fisher. You have a giant straw, a bucket, and an expansive lake full of fish who have no idea what is about to happen. Stun a school, sip them up, upgrade your gear, and watch your haul get gloriously out of hand. The stun-based fishing was inspired by Elden Ring, which makes Sip Fisher possibly the only cozy game with soulslike DNA. Bring your best "I just wanted one more upgrade" energy.

Sip Fisher started life as a summer project by a team of DigiPen students and has been making waves on Steam ever since. Streamers and YouTubers picked it up, and the Let's Plays have racked up over 200,000 views. Now the fishing gets portable.
