Press release:
Vienna/Austria and Bremen/Germany, May 24th, 2019 – “To everything turn, turn, turn. There is a season turn, turn, turn.” What better song to describe a turn-based strategy game than the great anthem made famous by The Byrds in 1965?

Will our children and grandchildren still play “Battle Worlds: Kronos” in a few decades’ time? We don’t know yet, but if they do, they will hopefully know that the game was on Nintendo Switch and offered great features such as touch screen controls and new maps specially designed for the local hot-seat multiplayer mode.

Players can experience three huge campaigns with over 60 hours of gameplay in total, facing the challenge of a strong AI, commanding a wide range of ground, air and sea units.

THQ Nordic and King Art Games will release Battle Worlds: Kronos for Nintendo Switch on 11th June, 2019 digitally and in retail stores for an SRP of £26.99 | €29.99 | $29.99.
