Decade-old platformer Legend of Kay is continuing its inexorable mission of getting its claws into every console imaginable, with THQ Nordic announcing today that the game will be coming to Nintendo Switch this year.

Legend of Kay Anniversary is a spruced up version of the original title released in the mid-2000s, and is already available on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Wii U, PC, and Mac. That’s assuming you haven’t already played it on the PlayStation 2 and DS back when it first hit stores. So yeah, it’s been around the block a few times. 

Perhaps one of the biggest things Legend of Kay had going for it was its neat references to movies and other pop-culture staples, although to be honest it pretty much stood in the shadow of superior platform games of the time such as Ratchet & Clank and Jak & Daxter. 

Still, this is the best version of the game to pick up if you haven’t played it before. Being a remaster, it looks a lot better than it did back in 2005, thanks to high-resolution textures, improved character models, and other bits and bobs. 

Legend of Kay: Anniversary will be released for the Switch on May 29.Â
