Darkest Dungeon II Heading to Nintendo Switch

by · Published · Updated

Developer and publisher Red Hook Studios revealed that turn-based roguelike Darkest Dungeon II will release on Nintendo Switch. The title will launch on the console on July 15, 2025, alongside the previously announced PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 versions. The game will be available for all these platforms in Standard Edition and Oblivion Edition. The Oblivion Edition will include the base game and The Binding Blade DLC.

A follow-up to 2016 turn-based roguelike Darkest Dungeon, Darkest Dungeon II sees players tasked with guiding a stagecoach expedition across a decaying landscape to try and avert the apocalypse. The game features a refined version of the previous game’s combat with a new Token System. Each failed run grants resources that can be used on upgrades for future attempts. The game also includes an affinity system between party members, and players can learn more about their heroes’ backstories.

Darkest Dungeon II is currently available on PC (via Steam, GOG.com, and Epic Games Store). Those looking to read more about the title can check out Ryan Costa’s review of its PC release.
