Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons is coming to Switch

Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons certainly garnered plenty of praise when it originally released as it's an original adventure with an emotional story where you control two brothers through various beautifully rendered environments.
Up until now though it's a game which has only had the option to control both brothers on one controller with the two control sticks, the Switch version will offer true co-op but you can still just play it in the way which seems to be originally intended as well, though it's nice to have options and so see such an acclaimed title coming to Nintendo's console.
