Battle Brothers is a tactical RPG originally launched onto Steam. The unique battle simulation title is developed by Overhype Studios and has announced an upcoming port to Nintendo Switch. The game is being sold alongside its expansions as a comprehensive bundle, or it can be purchased independently for half the price. This is a huge step and Battle Brothers are ready to be embraced by a new community.

The game launched onto PC back in 2017 and was immediately met with positive reviews. As a journey to accrue a mercenary gang, players travel a gritty fantasy world as they battle against monsters of all shapes and sizes. This is a tactical title at its core, but the battle is only beginning for many in the Nintendo Switch audience.

Battle Brothers is a tactical RPG that has a gritty low-powered feel. Enter into a medieval world where players must decide where to go, who to hire, and who to fight. Contracts are up to player discretion, and how you equip and train your men is entirely up to you.

Players lead a mercenary company through bloody battles into victorious results. Travel a world map and enjoy the tactical combat spread throughout the world. As you pursue individual enemies, resupply in towns on the way and engage in a variety of activities.

The world is procedurally generated and the game follows a perma-death mechanic. Every character who dies will stay dead, and each character comes with a set of unique background stories and traits.

Character development takes place without a class system allowing each fighter to level and evolve as you see fit. Equipment matters in this game and players will need a variety of different weapons if they are to survive the many campaigns of carnage.

Enjoy a dynamic event system within this title with atmospheric encounters that force tough decisions. As players continue to follow the story, they will encounter several late-game crises including a war between nobles, a greenskin invasion, and an undead horde.

This title is full of potential and opportunities that the Nintendo Switch community will soon have access to.

The game is great for audiences teen and older. The adult themes within combat and the advanced tactics make it friendly towards a more mature audience, but younger players could enjoy this game if they can grasp its core concepts.
