The Avicii video game has been released on Nintendo Switch.

Announced in October last year, the game, entitled AVICII Invector, sees players heading off on an intergalactic journey, trying to hit notes as they race through various landscapes. It comes with both solo and multiplayer options, and players are given the choice of three difficulty levels. The game also features 25 of the late artist’s tracks including ‘Levels’, ‘Without You’, and ‘Lay Me Down’.

After releasing a demo for AVICII Invector: Encore Edition on the handheld Nintendo Switch console, with ‘Pure Grinding’ and Avicii’s own remix of ‘The Nights’ available as levels to play, the full game is now available as of Tuesday 8th September, the late EDM star’s birthday.

25% of the profits from the sale of the game will go to the Tim Bergling Foundation, the charity set up in Avicii’s honour by his parents with a goal to support those working within mental health and suicide prevention.

Coinciding with Suicide Prevention Week, The Tim Bergling Foundation and New York radio station, SiriusXM, are paying tribute to Avicii this week with commentary from collaborators and a showcase of his music.
