Games Farm and ARTillery's survivor-like roguelite action game Giantslayer: Wrath of the Underworld launches on Nintendo Switch 2 on July 30. Previously available on PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S, and PC, the game lets players fight as a cursed hero through Norse mythology stages like Niflheim and Helheim.
The Switch 2 version arrives with the same structure as the original. Players start in Niflheim as the Berserker class, with Easy difficulty serving as a tutorial. Combat is mostly automatic, but the right stick lets you aim attacks at priority targets, and RB and LB handle dashing and class skills.
Leveling up grants skills, including borrowed abilities from gods like Thor, Odin, and Loki. Raid length depends on difficulty: 10 minutes on Easy, 15 on Normal, and 17 on Hard. Clearing stages unlocks new classes, tougher difficulties, and the next area, while gold collected becomes offerings that convert into skill points for permanent upgrades.
