BeXide and Bandai Namco Reveal Namco Legendary Mountains, a 3D Merge Puzzler for Switch, Switch 2 and PC

Voxel merges in a rotating bowl meet classic arcade icons for a nostalgia-first spin on a viral formula.

Overview

  • BeXide announced the 3D puzzle Namco Legendary Mountains on Monday with a summer 2026 window for Switch, Switch 2 and Steam, plus a playable demo at BitSummit PUNCH from May 22 to 24 in Kyoto.
  • Players toss voxel capsules into a rotatable 3D dish where matching pieces fuse into larger forms until the field overflows.
  • Dedicated stages and music draw from PAC-MAN, Dig Dug, Mappy, The Tower of Druaga and Xevious.
  • More than 100 voxel characters unlock through challenges, with a Collection Room to display finds and a Score Attack mode with online leaderboards.
  • Coverage from Gematsu, Nintendo Life and The Escapist links the design to Suika Game’s merge craze, signaling a major publisher’s push to adapt that hook with its own IP.
