Dungeon Defenders: Awakened Official Release Date Set for Nintendo Switch and The Lycan’s Keep Update

Chromatic Games July 14th, 2021

DEFENDERS,

The time has come… Dungeon Defenders: Awakened passed Nintendo’s Lot Check process and is ready for release on the Nintendo Switch! Thanks to all of the great feedback from our PTR testers, we’re now at a place where we feel ready to announce more details on the release of The Lycan’s Keep update (formerly known as Episode One) as well.

The official release date for DDA on Nintendo Switch is August 4, 2021. But that’s not all… The highly anticipated free update “The Lycan’s Keep” will launch simultaneously on PC via Steam, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S on August 4th, too; this update will be available on or soon after the launch of Dungeon Defenders: Awakened on Nintendo Switch.

Pre-order for Dungeon Defenders: Awakened on Nintendo Switch will be available on July 28, 2021.

Qualifying Kickstarter and Xsolla Backers who chose Nintendo Switch as the platform for their Game Key reward will receive their digital game key in their emails prior to the launch time on August 4th.

While you’re here, check out the official trailer for the release of DDA on Switch:

PlayStation Update

For PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 ports, we don’t yet have a release timeline. We previously announced we’re aiming for DDA to be out on all consoles by the end of the year. That will still be our goal, but we need some more time to figure out what tasks we need to complete to get DDA through Sony’s certification.
