Corporate Update
Blue Fire Video Game Release
Graffiti Games, a leading video game publisher, is pleased to provide an update on the Blue Fire video game, which was released in partnership with Argentina-based Robi Studios. The game was released to chart-topping results and much fanfare, propelling the 3D action-adventure platformer to No. 6 in “Best Sellers” in the Nintendo eShop and the No. 1 spot in Steam’s “New and Trending” section.
Subsequent to its release in early February 2021, Blue Fire has earned additional accolades, including:

- No. 1 in Steam’s “New Releases”
- Top-4 title in the eShop’s “Featured” section
- No. 1 Steam community recommended game
- Featured release on Nintendo.com
- More than 600,000+ views of the game’s launch trailers
- More than 730 million launch week media and social impressions
Blue Fire is available on the Nintendo Switch™ as a console exclusive and on PC for $19.99 USD. The game will launch on additional consoles and as a physical retail edition in the coming months.
“Robi Studios worked tirelessly to create a high-quality game for the community to enjoy, which is reflected in Blue Fire’s chart-topping success and sales, both of which allowed us to recoup the development costs within the first 24 hours,” said Alex Josef, CEO of Graffiti Games. “It’s great to see our model of backing and partnering with emerging talent in the game development space continue to gain momentum and we look forward to continued success for Blue Fire and our other titles as we move forward.”
In Blue Fire, players embark on an extraordinary adventure through the desolate kingdom of Penumbra to discover the hidden secrets of this long-forgotten land. Explore mystical temples, where players will need to master the art of movement to survive increasingly difficult 3D platforming challenges. Along the adventure, players will slash their way through diverse adversaries, encounter survivors, collect valuable items, take on strange quests and more.
