Danger Mouse: The Danger Games is headed to Switch, and it's one of few mobile games taking the plunge

Remember that one-eyed rodent and secret agent, Danger Mouse? Remember that his very own mobile game, Danger Mouse: The Danger Games came to iOS and Android last year? Well, it's on its way to the Switch too.

Winner of Gamescom 2017 'Most Innovative' game award, The Danger Games is based on episode 15 of the TV show's reboot, Quark Games. You'll face an epic multiplayer race battle and trading card game where either take on single player missions or go head-to-head with other players.

From the looks of things, the move from mobile to Switch will be fairly flawless. Though it'd be easier to just make a quick port of the game, the team is apparently working on revamping it for the Switch so it'll be curious to see what changes are made in the process. It'll also be interesting to see whether the game will be premium or not, and what the asking price will be.

Much like we felt with Gear.Club Unlimited when it came to the Switch, it was still fun but asking for £40+ for a free-to-play mobile game just wasn't going to cut it.

Either way, we only have a couple of months to find out as Danger Mouse: The Danger Games heads to Nintendo Switch's eShop around Easter weekend.
