Warhorse Studios and Deep Silver will bring the complete Royal Edition — base game plus all story expansions, exclusive gear and a bonus questline — to Nintendo’s next console with platform-specific options and visual targets.
Royal Edition for Nintendo Switch 2 is scheduled for 2027 and includes the base game, every premium story expansion, exclusive equipment, and a bonus questline.
Planned Switch 2 features include Joy‑Con 2 mouse mode, HDR support, handheld 1080p (upscaled), docked up to 1440p (upscaled), enlarged UI for small screens, and several gameplay bug fixes.
Warhorse’s game was recognized in 2025 for Best Writing, Best Art, Best Design and Immersion, and was a runner-up for RPG of the Year.
# What was announced
Developer Warhorse Studios and publisher Deep Silver confirmed during a Nintendo Direct on September 9, 2026 that Kingdom Come: Deliverance II Royal Edition will arrive on Nintendo Switch 2 in 2027. The Royal Edition bundles the base game with all premium story expansions, exclusive gear and an additional bonus questline.
# Who this matters to
Players who want the full Kingdom Come: Deliverance II experience on Nintendo's next hardware will be able to do so without buying multiple releases. The Royal Edition targets Switch 2 owners who prefer handheld play or portability while preserving the game's extensive role-playing systems and narrative content.
# Platform details and technical targets
Warhorse shared early Switch 2 features planned for the port. They include support for Joy‑Con 2 mouse mode and HDR. Handheld play is targeted at 1080p (upscaled) while docked output aims for up to 1440p (also upscaled), with actual output depending on the connected display. The port will ship with various gameplay bug fixes and an enlarged menu UI to ease navigation on smaller displays.
# Where the game already exists
Kingdom Come: Deliverance II is currently available on PC (Steam, Epic, GOG), PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. The Switch 2 edition is intended to extend the series' availability to Nintendo's newest console. The previous Kingdom Come: Deliverance release is playable on Switch via backward compatibility, so players can follow Henry's full journey across the franchise on Nintendo hardware.
The game remains a first‑person, historically grounded RPG set in 15th‑century Bohemia. It focuses on player choice: conversation, stealth, visceral melee combat and branching quest outcomes. The Royal Edition packages story expansions and exclusive equipment, so Switch 2 players should receive the same narrative scope offered on other platforms rather than a pared‑down version.
# Reception context
Kingdom Come: Deliverance II earned recognition during its 2025 release cycle, taking awards for Best Writing, Best Art, Best Design and Immersion, and finishing as a runner‑up for RPG of the Year in coverage cited by the announcement. That reception establishes expectations for narrative quality and systems depth for the Switch 2 port.
# What remains unclear
The announcement did not include a precise release date beyond "2027," nor did it provide full performance metrics, stability details or file size information for the Switch 2 version. Specifics about save transfers, upgrade paths for existing Switch owners or retail vs digital packaging were not mentioned.
# Bottom line
Developer Warhorse Studios is bringing Kingdom Come: Deliverance II Royal Edition to Nintendo Switch 2 next year. It will feature all base content, premium story expansions, exclusive gear, and a bonus questline. There's no word on exactly when this massive RPG will hit the Switch 2, however – just that it's coming som
The second Hyrule Warriors comes to Switch 2 with enhanced visuals and more enemies.
With two Nintendo Directs broadcasting this week, hungry Switch 2 owners had plenty of news to feed on, from the reveal of a new 2D Metroid to more The Legend of Zelda 40th Anniversary announcements than you can shake a Master Sword at.

Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity – Definitive Edition has been announced for Nintendo Switch 2, updating the musou prequel to Breath of the Wild for the newer hardware when it arrives on 25th February 2027.

When I first booted up Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 , I wasn’t too sure what to expect. I hadn’t played the first game (I know, I know, put down the pitchforks!), and, as someone who prefers fantasy over medieval settings, it wasn’t my usual cup of tea. However, it quickly became one of my favorite RPGs ever, as I watch
As human populations have grown, we’ve had to come up with all kinds of strange naming conventions. The Icelandic tradition of adopting one’s father’s name as a surname is one I’m rather fond of, while the European one of having ancestral jobs, locations and distinctive features decide your name is much more workmanlik
