Last month Ziggurat Interactive brought its 2.5D hack-and-slash title Slave Zero X to PC and most consoles. Apart from one that is. Now the publisher has confirmed an April launch date for Slave Zero X on Nintendo Switch.

Switch players don’t have long to wait to take up bloody arms as protagonist, Shou. In pursuit of killing a false God, the violent and tyrannical dictator Sovereign Khan, Shou, steals a Slave Unit Prototype. Thus becoming a furious red devil, who can use swift swordplay, explosive ordnance, and stylish combos to rid Megacity S1-9 of its dictator.

The action-packed game features an abundance of moves, air-juggling enemies, dashing through crowds and wall-jumping galore. Allowing you to take down foes of any size. Use the Training Room to practice your moves and string together devastating attack sequences. All to a 90s-inspired soundtrack featuring heavy Drum’n’Bass and funky industrial music.
