About The Colonists
The Colonists is a relaxing city building game. Each bot has a job to fulfil, from harvesting crops and fishing at the lake, to transporting resources and discovering distant lands.

Take on a series of individual campaign missions, play randomly generated maps, compete on player-designed creations or build your colony unfettered by any constraints in the sandbox mode. Explore, research, manage, tweak and refine to your heart's content.

The Colonists: Switch vs Steam prices
Steam is currently cheaper than the Switch eShop in every one of the 42 countries where we can compare both stores for The Colonists — the closest gap is South Korea, at about $10.39 on Switch against $6.56 on Steam.
Why the gap? Nintendo and Steam price the same game independently. Each eShop sets its own price in local currency for its country, while Steam sells through regional currency zones with their own price points. Exchange rates move daily, so two sticker prices that match on paper can differ in real terms. Both stores are also region-locked: you generally buy from the store your account belongs to, which is why a cheaper region usually needs that region's gift card or wallet top-up. All Switch-vs-Steam figures on this page are USD conversions taken when prices were last checked.

All prices on this page are converted from the original local currency to your selected display currency using daily exchange rates. The regular price (struck through) shows the country's standard eShop price; the highlighted sale price is what Nintendo is charging today. Discount badges in green mark deals of 50% or more.
