The cooperative deck-building game Across the Obelisk is now available for the Nintendo Switch. That's not the only good news since Paradox Interactive also revealed that the game is also releasing on all console platforms in 2024. Across the Obelisk is a roguelite deck-building role-playing game that features a unique cooperative multiplayer experience where players get to form parties and play together across any and all platforms where the game is available.
The game had already been released for the PC in 2021. The version released for the Nintendo Switch doesn't only have the main game but also makes available all the DLC that have been released so far. The game is priced at $24.99 with those who want more can go for the Starter Set bundle which is available for $37.50. In addition to the base game, the bundle comes with the player-favorite Sands of Ulminin expansion and the added hero expansion who is Amelia, the Queen.
Talking about this latest milestone, Javier de Miguel, who is a Game Developer at Dreamsite Games, revealed in a statement that players should now be able to play with friends no matter the platform. With the inclusion of the DLC, he added that this was done so that players won't have to worry whether they have the content or not.
