Braid, Anniversary Edition – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition launched
Braid, Anniversary Edition by developer Thekla, Inc., has launched for Nintendo Switch 2, packed with extensive in-depth developer commentary. The enhanced port adds new animations augmenting the hand-repainted graphics by artist David Hellman.

Switch 2 features include increased resolution—up to 1080p in handheld mode and up to 4k in console mode—along with higher resolution textures and additional developer commentary.

The Anniversary Edition vinyl soundtrack ships from publisher Laced Records of London. Electro-ambient remixes are contributed by Limbo composer Martin Stig Andersen. The 15-track soundtrack album is hosted on Bandcamp, with streaming on Apple Music, YouTube Music, Spotify, and Amazon Music Unlimited.


The puzzle platformer by Thekla, Inc., is also available for Nintendo Switch, PS4 and PlayStation 5, Xbox One and Series X|S consoles, along with iOS and Android devices. The Windows edition is verified for use with the Steam Deck.

The product description notes the "remasters are the result of thoughtful and often painstaking work to bring the recordings up to date for a contemporary game release, taking into account the way certain instruments reflect the visual aesthetics of Braid's world and the player’s gameplay state."

Licensed music from Braid is streaming on YouTube Music, Spotify, and Amazon Music Unlimited, composed by Jami Sieber, Shira Kammen, and Cheryl Ann Fulton.
