In the kingdom of Armello, each of the realm's five clans (Bear, Rabbit, Rat, Wolf, and Bandit) have sent out heroes to challenge the crazed lion king for his crown and save the land from a corrupting force known as the Rot.

There are 20 heroes to choose from - with unique strengths, weaknesses and character-specific abilities - a variety of victory conditions, procedurally-generated maps, dynamic questlines, unlockable items, and collectibles to keep things fresh.

"For over three years now, Armello has taken the experience of playing board games with a table full of friends and brought that to life in a virtual space,” said Trent Kusters, co-founder and director of League of Geeks.

“Not only does Armello play brilliantly on the Switch, whether docked or on the go, but players new and old will inherit years of content, updates, and improvements when Armello launches on Nintendo Switch.”

Armello hits Switch on 27 September and can be pre-ordered now on the Nintendo eShop for £14.99/€19.99/$19.99.

The Complete Edition can be yours for £29.99/€39.99/$39.99 and includes the base game along with four Bandit Clan heroes, eight additional playable characters from the Usurpers and Rivals hero packs, two alternative board skins from the Seasons pack, more hero skins, and the premium dice pack.
