Barony is a first-person dungeon-crawler roguelike from Turning Wheel. It launched on Steam all the way back in 2016 and has evolved through numerous updates over the years. Despite the game's appealing Minecraft-like art style and deep RPG mechanics, it has never been available on consoles. Thanks to a successful Kickstarter, Barony is finally heading to the Nintendo Switch next month. Like the PC version, the Switch game will feature 4-player split-screen and online co-op, plus cross-play with the PC!
Barony features:
Put your skills to the test with perma-death, cryptic dungeons, and no handholding Play cooperatively with up to 3 friends via split-screen, wireless play between Switch consoles, and the internet Master 13 classes ranging from familiar warrior, wizard, and rogue classes to unique sexton, joker, and arcanist classes Conquer or be killed by surprises around every corner in a new dungeon every time you play Invest in deep RPG systems with loads of loot and stats to analyze and synergize Discover and utilize tons of adventuring weapons, equipment, lore, spells, & legendary artifacts Experience ongoing free updates from an active team that loves the game and is active in the Barony community Go deeper with 2 DLCs offering alternate ways to play with new character classes and monster races which offer even more ways to playThat's a good list of features - especially the cross-play co-op and split-screen!
Barony sells for $14.99 on Steam and Epic, and is also available in a 4-pack for $49.99 on Steam. The Switch version will be priced at $19.99 but can be preordered for $14.99. It launches on Tuesday, August 1.
