'Knight Squad' (ALL) Comes to Nintendo Switch Next Week - Screens & Trailer

by Rainier on May 26, 2020 @ 9:05 a.m. PDT

Knight Squad drops players into one of several top-down arenas where they face off to see who will be the last knight standing, capture all of the flags, or score the most goals in an adapted form of full-contact (and full-slaughter) soccer.

Reminiscent of classic party games like Bomberman, Enter the fray in free-for-all battles, crush your opponents in team-based matches, and take the fight online with nine different game modes, each as frantic as the last.

Gather up to seven friends and pick your knight, then kick serious butt with 100% authentic medieval weapons such as large pointy swords, rapidfire crossbows, outrageous power-ups, and devastating laser guns―voted #1 most likely to cause irreparable damage to your buddy’s knight as well as your relationship with said buddy.

Take on current friends and future frenemies in any of the incredibly fun game modes, ranging from Last Man Standing to Medieval soccer. All of that using only weapons from the middle ages… and laser guns… and miniguns.


The Nintendo Switch version includes both the original Knight Squad as well as all the game modes and characters from the Extra Chivalrous DLC. It will be available for digital purchase only on the Nintendo eShop for $14.99 on June 5th. Enthusiastic players can pre-purchase the game today for a discounted price!

“Since the very first day the Nintendo Switch was announced, fans have been asking that we bring Knight Squad to that platform, it’s just a natural fit,” said Laurent Mercure, Communications Officer at Chainsawesome Games. “We’re a tiny studio and we had our hands full with another project at the time, we couldn’t jump on it immediately. But it’s happening now and we’re super excited. With its minimalist controllers, family time vibe and focus on local multiplayer, Knight Squad is right at home on the Nintendo platform.”

Key Features:

  • 1-8 Players game packed with crazy party action - A bunch of levels are available for each game mode. Don’t have enough players to fill in the spots? No worries. Bots will jump in. Select their difficulty depending on the amount of challenge you'd like and you're ready to go!
  • A ton of versus game modes - Team Capture the Flag, Last Man Standing, Capture the Grail, Domination Soccer, Juggernaut, and more!
  • Spicy upgrades to pick up - Upgrade your knight with new weapons and power-ups on the battlefield: sword, bow and arrows, horses, crossbow, bombs, laser gun and more!
  • Epic Challenges - Take on the very difficult challenge levels and make your way to the top of the leaderboard!

Currently on PC (Steam) and Xbox One, Knight Squad is coming to Nintendo Switch on June 5, 2020.
