All of those rumors were apparently true- Paladins is indeed coming to Nintendo Switch. The hero shooter will be launching on the Switch on June 12 (so next Tuesday!) in early access. It will be available as a paid game (via its Founder’s Pack) to begin with, but a free to play version of the game will be launching on the Switch later in the Summer.

The paid version will allow, via the Founder’s Pack, the ability to immediately unlock all Champions and their voice packs now and forever, and also has exclusive cosmetics. The game will also have cross platform play with the Xbox One version of the game (but not the PS4 version- the developer has confirmed Sony is not allowing that).

Given that the Switch has so far lacked a popular multiplayer shooter outside of Splatoon 2, this is going to make for a great addition to the Switch’s lineup. Now all that’s missing is Fortnite, and we already have a pretty good idea that it’s coming, too…

Given that the two most popular shooters in the world right now are PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds and Overwatch, it shouldn’t come as too much of a surprise that a developer would try to merge both of them together to see what that brings us. And Hi Rez Studios, the folks behind hero shooter Paladins, have announced they will be doing just that.

Announced today at Hi-Rez Expo 2018, Battlegrounds will be a brand new mode for Paladins that will take the shooter’s Overwatch trappings and apply them to a PUBG structure and setting. The big difference? While other battle royale games usually emphasize solo play, Paladins: Battlegrounds will be looking at pushing for team play instead. That, plus the differentiation of each hero character (which means team compositions need to be varied an thoughtful) will make this different from other similar offerings.

Paladins is currently available on PS4, Xbox One, and PC.
