Here’s a rundown on each game:
Syberia
The standard-setting adventure game is finally available on the Nintendo Switch!
Kate Walker, a young New York attorney, is sent by her law firm to the small French village of Valadilene. Her mission: complete negotiations for the purchase of an automaton factory on behalf of a large multinational. She has no idea what the future holds in store for her…
Join Kate Walker on an extraordinary journey that takes her all the way from Western Europe to the far reaches of Eastern Russia. You will come across a host of endearing characters and incredible locations as you search for traces of Hans Voralberg, the genius inventor of the automatons. It is a search that will take you to the legendary island of Syberia, in the far North of the continent, where the last living mammoths reside, hidden from modern eyes…
- Experience a moving adventure and roam through an enchanting world.
- Journey everywhere with Kate Walker with the Nintendo Switch’s handheld mode.
- Relax while playing in TV mode or tabletop mode.
Syberia II
The sequel of the standard-setting adventure game is finally available on the Nintendo Switch!
After crossing Europe from west to east, Kate Walker finally found Hans Voralberg and got him to sign the papers approving the sale of the automaton factory.
An improbable pair, Kate Walker and the eccentric old Hans Voralberg set forth in search of a forgotten world, home to the last legendary mammoths of Siberia. Hans and Kate continue the impossible undertaking that Hans had begun several years before, and their courage and perseverance take them through a range of hostile environments.
Yet what lies ahead goes far beyond the limits of the imagination…

Syberia 3
Enter the enchanting world of Benoit Sokal
Kate Walker is found dying on the banks of a river by the Youkol tribe, a nomadic people accompanying their migrating snow ostriches. Together, stuck and imprisoned in the town of Valsembor, they must find a way to continue their journey in a race against their enemies and unexpected obstacles. Not to mention Kate’s past, which catches up with her…
- A world filled out with exceptional story-telling, imagined and drawn by Benoit Sokal, with music by Inon Zur.
- Discover an enchanting world full of mystery and life, that you can completely explore in 3D.
- Immerse yourself in the story, original puzzles, and mysteries of the fabulous adventure of an unforgettable heroine.
Good price for a collection of 3 games 'all' on the cartridge. There is a 100MB update for Syberia 2 and a ~60MB update for 3, but otherwise each appears on the console with its own separate icon despite the one game card.
Will also earn you 105 Gold Coins to redeem on the eshop as this release technically only came out this year I believe. Launched in Australia at $60, then was reduced to $30 in the last EB sale. Clearly that still didn't move units so now it has a permanent reduction down to $14.95 by the looks of it.
A few other interesting things I've noticed:
Syberia Trilogy Switch
The game has a European classification on the box with an Australian PG sticker over top. When I purchased my copy today, it was still shrink wrapped and the sticker was beneath the shrink wrap, so collectors holding out for a 'true' Australian packaging release may be disappointed. Or not. I honestly don't know where this fits amongst collectors with Australian classifications and/or shrink wrapped product.
Switch has seen a few physical releases with 2 games on one card appearing as separate icons. The ones I have that come to mind are: Risk of Rain 1+2, Metro Redux and Child of Light/Valiant Hearts Double Pack. America will be receiving Sonic Mania/Team Sonic Racing and Super Monkey Ball/Sonic Forces double packs in the near future on the one card also, but to my knowledge this is the only Switch release that has 3 full games on one cart in this particular layout (SM3DAS does not count as those games are all under one home menu icon)
