Curve Digital has announced its first project for Switch. In partnership with developer Sky9 Games, the third-person action-adventure game will be on display at Gamescom later this month.

Here’s an overview:

A Knight’s Quest pays homage to the classic 3D adventure games of the past and puts players in the shoes of Rusty, a reluctant hero who sets out to save the world after accidentally endangering it.

Rusty must explore the enormous game world – packed full of dungeons, side quests and secrets to discover – to defeat the evil spirit he released into the world after a mishap with a magical vase.

Players must defeat enemies using the game’s epic combat system, overcome tricky puzzles using elemental powers and master the world-bending powers of the Spirit Shield to help him save the day.

A Knight’s Quest also boasts a rich sense of humour. Packed full of jokes and mischievous side quests, the game is both a loving homage and a pastiche of the series it’s based on – offering fans of the series a plenty of laughs along the way.
