Stoic Games confirmed that they would be putting out The Banner Saga series out on the Nintendo Switch in its entirety ahead of the launch of The Banner Saga 3– so that Switch owners would be caught up on the story, and also have the ability to have their saves, which carry across games, import into the third game when it launches.
The first game was made available on the Switch in Mid-May; the second one isn’t too far behind. By which I mean it’s out. Now. At this moment. Yes, The Banner Saga 2 launches on the Nintendo Switch today, on June 7. Surprise! Another surprise- owners of the original game get $5 off on the new one!
Collectively, this should give players enough time to get through the first two games going into The Banner Saga 3 (which launches on all platforms simultaneously)- so good on Stoic for living up to their word here. The Banner Saga 3 launches on July 24 for PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC.
