The Immortal John Triptych is on the way to Switch and Switch 2 later this year, and it already looks like one of the stranger little curiosities on Nintendo’s calendar. If you have ever wanted a point-and-click adventure that treats the Renaissance like a box of puzzle pieces, this collection is leaning right into that odd, painted charm.
The package comes from developer Joe Richardson and gathers three of his absurd adventure games in one place: Four Last Things, The Procession to Calvary, and Death of the Reprobate. Each one makes use of real Renaissance paintings, turning old artwork into a lively, comic stage for puzzles, pilgrimages, and very peculiar conversations.
This new release is not just a simple bundle, either. The collection includes quality-of-life updates and extra features, giving the games a cleaner fit for modern play while keeping their offbeat identity intact. The result sounds very Z-retro in spirit: old-world art, classic adventure design, and a taste for mischief that refuses to behave.
Richardson marked the announcement with a deliberately sharp joke, comparing playing a point-and-click adventure on a console to reading Rabelais on an e-reader. In his own playful way, he framed the whole thing as something that should feel wrong, yet somehow exactly right for the players willing to meet it on its own strange terms.
What The Collection Includes
- Three games in one release: Four Last Things, The Procession to Calvary, and Death of the Reprobate.
- A traditional narrative adventure structure with a modernised interface.
- Direct character control for moving through scenes.
- A verb coin interaction menu for talking to people and using places or objects.
- A simple drop-down inventory where items can be dragged, dropped, saved, or hoarded.
