Achilles: Survivor release date secured on Nintendo Switch, new trailer
Today, Dark Point Games provided the release date for Achilles: Survivor on Nintendo Switch. The launch is lined up for October 30, 2025, so you won’t have to wait much longer to play it.
Achilles: Survivor, a bullet-heaven battle for Greece was previously in Steam Early Access. The Nintendo Switch version will contain all new content and improvements that have been added along the way.
Here’s an overview of the game:
Achilles: Survivor will place players in the shoes of the eponymous hero or one of several other survivors as they battle Hades and his army of the underworld. Following his demise at the end of the Trojan War, Hades resurrected Achilles to serve his nefarious plans against the other gods; however, once Achilles had served his purpose, Hades cast him back into Tartarus, damning him to an eternity of torment. Refusing to accept this fate, Achilles broke free, saving the souls of many others during his escape, including several who had died by his hand. Enraged by this subversion, Hades has sworn vengeance against the hero, vowing to return him and the other survivors to the depths of the underworld.
Now, Achilles and his unlikely allies must rise up to defeat Hades and his legion as they wage war across Troy, Tartarus, and other battlefields to avoid the threatening damnation. Using a variety of weapons, abilities, spells, and offensive and defensive structures, these heroes must grow their power as they face the battle between life and death.
