Previously announced<\/a> the ‘Summer 2022’ release window, it has now been confirmed that Baldur’s Gate: Dark Alliance 2<\/a> will launch on Switch on 20th July. Yep, next week!<\/p>\n

Teased<\/a> by developer Black Isle Studios back in February, this will be the first time the action-RPG sequel comes to a Nintendo console after it skipped the GameCube following the original Dark Alliance<\/a>. That original game is already available on Switch<\/a>, of course, and we called it “an incredible porting job” in our review<\/a> \u2014 we’re hoping Black Isle delivers something of similar quality this time.<\/p>\n

Here’s some PR blurb about the features of this remaster, plus the original trailer to whet your appetite if you can’t wait a week and a bit:<\/p>\n
