Consoles: not announced
As of 2026-08-28, NDEV GAMES has not announced a Nintendo Switch, PlayStation or Xbox version anywhere this site can check: not on the Steam store page, not in any of the 30 Steam announcements, not on fatalclaw.com, and not in the official 1.0 Launch Trailer description.
Conflicting claim: One games-news social post (DayOne / playday.one) lists PC, PlayStation, Xbox and Nintendo Switch together in a sentence about the release. That claim is not sourced to the studio and no official channel repeats it, so this site treats console versions as unconfirmed as of 2026-08-28 rather than as planned.
Where you can buy it
- Steam — the only storefront.
- No GOG listing exists as of 2026-08-28. "fatal claw gog" autocompletes on Google, but the search leads back to Steam.
- Fatal Claw keys are sold through Steam. This site does not link resale key shops.
One date conflict worth knowing about
The aggregator metroidvania.gg lists 25 August 2026 as the release date. Steam and the studio both say 26 August 2026, 07:00 UTC — that is the date used across this site.
