Blackguards 2 launches for Switch today

Daedalic Entertainment is happy to announce that Blackguards 2 is now available on Switch. This turn-based strategy-RPG originally launched on PC in 2015, folowed by PlayStation 4 and Xbox One in 2017. Now it’s time for Switch owners to get in on this mature epic fantasy RPG that features a gritty storyline, alongside deep lore and strategy mechanics.

Deep in the dungeons of Aventuria, Cassia waits for her chance to break out and claim what is rightfully hers: the Shark Throne. To achieve her goal and overthrow the man that took everything from her, the young noble will have to recruit the Vanquishers of the Nine Hordes and other mercenaries. Every choice matters in this dark tale and Cassia needs all her wits about her to control the army of criminals - and lead her squad to victory or to certain death.

In Blackguards 2, the player chooses the playstyle. Front line combatants, ranged fighters or dangerous mages - up to 20 characters can join the party and head into battle. Every challenging hexfield battle needs a new strategy and the wrong spell might result in death. When every action during battle has consequences, each move has to be carefully considered. Not only do the player’s choices matter on the battlefield, but throughout the entire game. Cassia’s story is not set in stone and fateful decisions can influence the ending of the game and the fate of the squad.
