‘Idol Manager’ Switch Port Announced; August 2022 Release

During today’s Nintendo Indie World showcase, a reel of upcoming games releasing for Nintendo Switch was revealed by the stream’s end. Of those highlighted titles, a notable one is Idol Manager by publisher Playism and developer Glitch Pitch. This game was released for PC via Steam in July 2021.

In Idol Manager, players take on the role of a manager tasked with cultivating and training the newest generation of pop idols. Their role allows them to choose who to hire and who to fire, as well as who gets promoted for doing a good job or reprimanded when they mess up.

Additionally, players will be able to peek into the girls’ personal lives and learn more about them. These interactions increase your relationship with the girls and allow them to be emotionally stable during tough situations. However, it’s possible that it could lead to heartache.

During gameplay, players also have to worry about gossip magazines, super fans, and rival groups, who are eager to bring drama to your group. Still, there’s an option for you to play dirty, but that might not be good for your mental state.

Idol Manager is releasing for Nintendo Switch on August 25, 2022.
