We've got good news, dino pals - the Switch Amber Isle release date is finally here, meaning you can finally join players on other platforms and experience the adorable game for yourself.

We're massive fans of both dinosaur games and life sims here at Pocket Tactics, so Amber Isle's cutesy combination of the two is right up our alley. Ambertail Games was born in Belfast, Northern Ireland, in 2020 and the team has been working on this game, which is the studio's debut title, ever since.

You play as your very own prehistoric Paleo-sona, on a mission to breathe life back into Amber Isle at the request of the grumpy iguanodon Mayor Clawsworth. You get to open and customize your shop to your personal specifications, help to rebuild the island to attract new residents, and meet a huge range of Paleofolk from several different prehistoric eras, all living peacefully side-by-side.

When was the Amber Isle release date?

Amber Isle was released on PC on October 10, 2024, with its Switch release following on February 13, 2025.
