Yesterday, Legendary Games announced that they are bringing Mordheim: Warband Skirmish to the Nintendo Switch. It will be released next week in Europe and North America, and will cost 24.99€ / £19.99 / $24.99.

The Nintendo Switch version of the game features “accelerated graphics”, but also also four factions to play right from the start:

Skaven (men who need Wyrdstone to thrive)

Reiklanders

Middenheimers

Marienburgers

More factions will be added as DLC in future updates (however, it’s not clear whether that DLC will be free or not):

Undead – Agents of the Vampire Counts, helping their bid to control the living

Witch Hunters – Agents of the Grand Theologonist who will burn first and ask questions later

Sisters of Sigmar – The only faction with remotely honourable intentions

Cult of the Possessed – Men who have turned to the dark powers of salvation

Finally, here’s some more details for the game (along with a trailer and some pictures of the mobile version):

Players explore the ruins of the City of Mordheim, clash with other scavenging warbands and collect Wyrdstone – valuable shards from the comet that destroyed the city. The Switch version will include accelerated graphics and four factions to play from the start: Skaven – Skulking sinister rat men who need Wyrdstone to thrive and the three principle human mercenary protagonists Reiklanders, Middenheimers, Marienburgers each representing one of the factions pitted against each other in a brutal civil war over who should sit in the throne as Emperor. Tactical turn-based gameplay with incredible action sequences
