Press release:
[Oceanside, California – November 20, 2025].
The indie games publisher V Publishing and indie games developer Tlön Industries are today very pleased and proud to announce that their open-world sci-fi adventure ,‘Kentum’, is out now for the Nintendo Switch.

Following its successful launch on Steam, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5 earlier this month, players can now experience the thrilling platforming, exploration, and crafting of Kentum anywhere they go.

Fresh off its wins for Best Design and Best Game at EVA 2025, Kentum invites players to rebuild civilization in a strange and beautiful future where cloning is humanity’s last hope. Play as Kent, a reluctant hero tasked with reconstructing Earth’s systems, and partner with O.R.B., your overly “helpful” robotic companion. Craft resources, automate your survival, and platform through a variety of mysterious biomes as you explore a vibrant post-apocalyptic world — all optimized for handheld play.

Kentum features three distinctly different modes: Story Mode, Creative Mode, and Sandbox Mode — ensuring every type of player, from methodical base builders to creative experimenters, can find their ideal playstyle. In Story Mode, follow Kent and O.R.B. on their quest to bring life back to the planet while endlessly recloning and rebuilding in this offbeat sci-fi adventure.

Key Features:

Survive… or Not! You’ll Be Cloned Anyways: Even though Kent will be revived endlessly, that doesn’t change the fact that dying is a major drag. You’ll need to gather and hunt for food, find new recipes, and polish your cooking skills. Building your own farms and vivariums is your ticket to a steady source of nourishment.

Explore, Scan, and Catalogue: Discover the wonders and the oddities of a vast, ever-changing world filled to the brim with fascinating flora, fauna, and climate events. Classify every animal, plant, and mineral in order to help you survive the passing seasons.

Craft it to the Limit: Use every material at your disposal to build your base. Start small by turning bone and wood into coal, machine scraps into sheets of metal, and slowly but surely grow your base into a full-blown resource-generating machine that can rival any factory in the world.

Build the Home Base of Your Dreams: Expand your home base and create an automated system to allow you to streamline and optimize your productions while you are off exploring.

Traverse Exotic Locales in Style: From vibrant jungles to desolate ruins, traverse post-apocalyptic Earth with your hoverboard, hang glider, grappling hook, and more. It is up to you to maneuver with equal parts adventure and efficiency.

A Plethora of Ways to Play: Experience future Earth with three different modes: Story Mode, Creative Mode, or Sandbox Mode. Whether you’re a meticulous base builder or a hardcore survivalist, there’s something here for every clone of Kent to enjoy.

Kentum is available now on Nintendo Switch, Steam, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5. At launch, Kentum also includes full voice-over support in six languages, including English, Spanish, German, Japanese, Portuguese, and Russian. Keep up on all things Kentum by following the Tlön Industries team on X, YouTube, and joining the official Discord.
