Publisher Merge Games and developer Shiro Games announced the strategy game, Northgard, will launch for the Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on September 26. The game is out now for Windows PC.

Shiro Games announced a free new expansion for the PC version titled Northgard: Conquest. It will launch in October.

Here is an overview of the base game:

Take charge of a Viking clan from the couch or on the go with Northgard’s console-optimized control scheme, giving tacticians just as much command with a gamepad or Joy-Con as they have with a keyboard and mouse. The console release features all the content currently found in the PC version, including the Ragnarok and Relics updates, along with six clans, a lengthy campaign, cooperative and ranked competitive online modes, and more.
