Warhorse Studios recently announced that their medieval RPG Kingdom Come: Deliverance is coming to the Nintendo Switch thanks in part due to a partnership with publisher Prime Matter.

According to the press release, the upcoming Nintendo Switch version of Kingdom Come: Deliverance owes its existence to a “happy mistake”, as the PS4 Royal Edition of the game was erroneously also listed for a Switch release in 2020. While the error was quickly corrected, but the mistake generated enough interest for Warhorse Studios to consider a version on Nintendo’s hybrid console, which will be ported by Sabre Interactive.

Originally released in 2018, Kingdom Come: Deliverance’s biggest selling point is its realistic, historically accurate representation of medieval Bohemia. To date, the game has sold nearly 4 million copies on PC, PS4 and Xbox One.

Here’s the official breakdown of Kingdom Come: Deliverance from War Horse Studios:
