- September 04, 2019

Blizzard Entertainment has revealed that Overwatch Legendary Edition will release on Nintendo Switch next month.

You will be able to join more than 40 million players from around the world, with the team shooter coming with all of the heroes, maps, modes, and game updates currently available on other platforms to offer the complete experience.

On the portable home console, you can use optional built-in gyroscopic motion controls to line up the perfect shot.

You can choose to buy a boxed version (containing a code to download the game) or the digital version on the Nintendo eShop priced at $39.99. Both come with 15 bonus skins and a three-month Nintendo Switch Online individual membership.

Those that pre-purchase Overwatch Legendary Edition before it launches on October 15th will receive the Noire skin for elite Talon operative Widowmaker. Whereas those that log in before 31st December 2019 will receive a bonus Golden Loot Box containing at least one guaranteed Legendary item.

“Overwatch brings players together to cooperate and compete in a bright and optimistic vision of the future, and we’re looking forward to welcoming Nintendo Switch gamers into the fun,” explains Blizzard Entertainment president J. Allen Brack.

“The Legendary Edition includes more than three years’ worth of content updates and gameplay enhancements, and we’re excited to team up with Nintendo to provide players with new ways to enjoy the full Overwatch experience—including on the go.”

Overwatch Legendary Edition will release for Nintendo Switch worldwide on October 15th.
