A classic board game is joining the Switch eShop in about a month from now. Battleship is due out worldwide on July 24, Marmalade Game Studio announced today.

Here’s some information as to what you can expect:

Battleship is a tactical deduction game by Hasbro, Inc., a global play and entertainment company. The goal is to pick your coordinates, fire your missile and sink your opponent’s fleet before they sink yours. Play the original Battleship game in Classic mode or assail your opponent with airstrikes, torpedoes and bombardments in the new Commanders mode designed specifically for the digital adaptation.

Battleship’s Commanders mode has enhanced gameplay with new abilities such as placing a mine or using sonar to scan for enemy ships. The game also features unlockable commanders and locations inspired by historical and mythological naval battles, such as Euryleia, the Amazonian Commander and Colossus Bay.

The Nintendo Switch version supports single-player mode, online multiplayer against friends or the world and local multiplayer with the help of the Battle Grid companion app available for free on iOS and Android devices.

Pre-orders for Battleship open on July 10. The game can be had a 10% discount by pre-loading.
