Well…This news story was/is a rather strange one to cover…Because apparently, back in July of 2021 (on July 17th, to be exact), XD Inc. (a China-based video games publisher and game developer) announced that Freebird Games famed adventure game, “Finding Paradise“, was on its way to iOS and Android devices (as seen in the press release down below):
“Global publisher and game developer, XD Inc, have announced that Freebird Games’ famed adventure, Finding Paradise, is heading to iOS and Android devices.
First released in 2017 on PC, the story-driven adventure and sequel to ‘To the Moon’ and ‘A Bird Story’ spans a single lifetime, and follows two doctors traversing through a dying man’s memories to fulfil his last wish.
The mobile version has been developed from the ground-up by XD Inc, with Finding Paradise having originally received universal critical acclaim (10/10 Steam, 81% Metacritic & 97% Humble Bundle) when it first launched. The mobile remaster builds on this and completely reworks the visuals, with stunning HD gameplay that players have never seen before.
With a brand new trailer featuring the original creator of The Moon series, Kan Gao, the tongue-in-cheek reel not only sees him enter into the Finding Paradise world, but also showcases just some of the many reasons why the saga is held in such high esteem.
Players can pre-register their interest for Finding Paradise on TapTap, while they can learn more about the mobile remaster during the ‘TapTap Presents’ showcase on July 17th.” – XD Inc.
Furthermore, to make things even more strange…The very same day (July 17th, 2021) that this was publicly announced by XD Inc. themselves, Freebird Games (the makers of “Finding Paradise“, “To the moon“, “Impostor Factory“, with many more) also announced that “Finding Paradise” is also on its way to the Nintendo Switch.
However…The Nintendo Switch version has no release date just yet (it’s a TBA title), and it seems to be the same deal with the iOS and Android version of “Finding Paradise” as well…
And as you might have noticed, it’s now January of 2022…And to my knowledge, nothing new has been said about the release date of “Finding Paradise” to neither mobile nor the Nintendo Switch (and that even though it’s been OVER five months since the original news announcement…).
In other words, we can just hold our toes and thumbs and wait for XD Inc to nail down an official release date for “Finding Paradise” to mobile and the Nintendo Switch.
As of here and now though, you can read up on the game and mobile features + optimizations for “Finding Paradise” further down the page! (you can also buy and enjoy “Finding Paradise” for PC via Steam or GOG at a very low price in the current year)
