Prime Matter, the new publishing label under Koch Media, have announced the Warhorse Studios' RPG, Kingdom Come: Deliverance, is coming to the Nintendo Switch.
The game first launched for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC via Steam, GOG, and the Humble Store in February 2018.
Here is an overview of the game:
You’re Henry, the son of a blacksmith. Thrust into a raging civil war, you watch helplessly as invaders storm your village and slaughter your friends and family. Narrowly escaping the brutal attack, you grab your sword to fight back. Avenge the death of your parents and help repel the invading forces!
Story
Bohemia—located in the heart of Europe, the region is rich in culture, silver, and sprawling castles. The death of its beloved ruler, Emperor Charles IV, has plunged the kingdom into dark times: war, corruption, and discord are tearing this jewel of the Holy Roman Empire apart.
One of Charles’ sons, Wenceslas, has inherited the crown. Unlike his father, Wenceslas is a naive, self-indulgent, unambitious monarch. His half-brother and King of Hungary, Sigismund the Red Fox, senses weakness in Wenceslas. Feigning good will, Sigismund travels to Bohemia and kidnaps his half-brother. With no king on the throne, Sigismund is now free to plunder Bohemia and seize its riches.
In the midst of this chaos, you’re Henry, the son of a blacksmith. Your peaceful life is shattered when a mercenary raid, ordered by King Sigismund himself, burns your village to the ground. By bittersweet fortune, you are one of the few survivors of this massacre.
Without a home, family, or future you end up in the service of Lord Radzig Kobyla, who is forming a resistance against the invasion. Fate drags you into this bloody conflict and shoves you into a raging civil war, where you help fight for the future of Bohemia.

Wow, that won't be easy. Good game but it didn't run particularly well to begin with.
Well, this will be interesting. Pretty good game from a smaller studio. Switch only gamers will be in for a nice treat.
Wonder what resolution it would be. It's 900p on ps4/xbox one.
Seems to be a normal target, if you ask me. Wonder what other compromises there will be. Performance-wise, this was not a very solid game on consoles, as far as I remember.
Yeah, my ps4 struggled.
