Finnish developer 10tons has announced the top-down fantasy RPG title Undead Horde is currently in development for Nintendo Switch. It's due for release in November 2018 for PC, so we imagine the Switch version should drop around the same time.
It places you in the questionable boots of a necromancer who uses his power to raise the dead to create an army commandable corpses. It's a hack and slash kind of experience with a splash of strategy for good measure, including the ability to swell your army with the cadavers of your fallen foes. So it's basically the Night King from Game Of Thrones in game form. Loot and items are also procedurially generated so there's a potential endless stream of things to find and equip on your journey to rid the world of all those pesky living people.
You can check out the official pre-Alpha trailer below for a taste of the unholy gameplay below. Dare you dabble in the dark arts later this year? Let us know...

So that's what happens when h Pikmin die...
the
It looks boring... Like walking and waiting for your undead pets to do the work.
You had me at 10tons
Looks too much like Pikmin, which I didn't like.
can i just say that someone needs to go ahead and release an updated zombies ate my neighbors on the switch.
Will this be the first game in a series of similar looking rpgs from 10tons - the masters of regurgitation.
10tons... of shovelware.
10 tons... good android-fr.info
Seriously I hate to be THAT guy, but how does this professional writer manage to have so many typos in his articles. I'm not trying to be mean here, but it irks me.
@Rhaoulos We have a "horde" of these types of games coming to the Switch. Besides the Dark Souls news, I am not pleased with the amount of good games coming to the Switch. I understand more games means more sales but at least push for better products.
@Gibb How long have you been alive? Professional writers? I just seen a typo on Forbes... There are no professional writers anymore.
What is wrong with Devs? They put all that work into a game and tends up looking boring and generic. . .Copie movesets/assets?
Yawn
I like the idea, but I think this idea would work better with more focus on it being a strategy game. Something like They are Billions, but playing as the Zombies instead.
@DEZn00ts
Agreed, there are way too many games and not enough games really worth playing. I don't have enough time to play so I need to make a drastic selection and all those games aren't helping.
Doesn't look bad.
