Nidhogg 2 is OUT NOW on Nintendo Switch!

November 22, 2018 - The wurm is a giving and benevolent entity, and is hitting the road. Nidhogg 2 is available now on Nintendo Switch, allowing would-be meat sacks everywhere to duke it out on the go. On the bus, in a park, or trapped in the dank, godforsaken dungeons of a lost civilization, the wurm welcomes your tribute.

Take a break from feasting on the flesh of fowl to bask in the wurm’s return, now in GIF form!

And don’t forget to and check out the Switch announce trailer!

Whether you feel the urge to play in Handheld Mode, docked and on a TV, or on the Switch itself with Joy-Cons in hand, Nidhogg 2 has you covered (in gore, most likely). Stab, slash, throw, slide, divekick, impale, roll, cleave, shoot, and sprint your way into the wurm’s good graces - and stomach - in this fleshy game of tug-of-war.

Expanding upon the award-winning gameplay of its predecessor, Nidhogg 2 offers up new weapons, new levels, new ways to customize your slaughter, fashion-forward character customization, a grotesquely captivating art style courtesy of Toby Dixon, and sounds for your ear holes by acclaimed electronic artists Mux Mool, Geotic, Doseone, Osborne, and Daedelus.

Nidhogg 2 is available now for Nintendo Switch, PC (Win/Mac), PS4, and Xbox One. For more on everybody’s favourite stabby tug-of-war simulator, follow Messhof Games’ Steam developer page and Twitter.
