MY.GAMES and Allods Team have announced that Skyforge, a free-to-play MMO, is coming to Nintendo Switch this fall.
The game has players taking on the roles of Immortals, powerful god-like beings destined to save the planet Aelion from invasion. You'll be journeying through "wondrous worlds inspired by fantasy and science fiction, with hundreds of hours of exciting gameplay, legendary stories, and thrilling battles to discover."
With Skyforge being a free-to-play title, you won't need a Nintendo Switch Online subscription to enjoy online play, and further updates are also planned to become available for free at a later date. On top of this, and for a limited time only, players will be able to receive an exclusive in-game gift pack which will give you a helping hand if you're new to the game.
Here's a little more on the game itself:
Using incredible Immortal powers, players can switch between 18 unlockable classes as they master an intuitive combat system and harness unique, class-specific abilities. Rock out with the Soundweaver's killer riffs, shoot to thrill with the Gunner, and set Aelion ablaze with the Firestarter!
Beyond an epic main story, the fight to defend Aelion will continue in free updates that push the boundaries of Skyforge’s constantly-evolving universe. Invasions, regular seasonal events, invite players around the world to unite online in a fight against invaders from across the stars and their avatars of destruction. Soon after the Switch launch, players can purchase an Invasion Pass to earn Invasion-exclusive rewards from battles, including special in-game cosmetics.
We don't have a specific release date just yet, but expect to see this one popping up on the eShop over the next couple of months.
Have you played the game on other platforms? Will you be giving it a go when it comes to Switch? Tell us below.

I thought Skyrim was coming to switch for a second. Then I realized it was already on Switch.
Still hoping for Star Trek Online.
One day...
Lol game is dead on ps4 and pc, might give it a try though
"a free-to-play MMO"
That is as far as I read it.
Yes, please. Started it twice before, but PS4 version has the proverbial Vita control issues and I don't drag around my laptop often enough to frequent an online freemium on PC in the same way as Warframe on Switch. But the game's sci-fantasy setting itself has a FFXIII vibe to it and keeps me curious to this day. Will definitely give it another shot here.
Fair enough. Bring it on down. It may be "of service" to many
@Valhalla91 And for a good reason. Its a terrible Cash Shop abomination game! Like most of those so called F2P games.
Give us Final Fantasy XI you cowards.
Yay micro transactions
Space of Warcraft.
I will give it a go .
Doesn't look too bad, I'll give it a try. Wonder how it'll run on Switch tho...
Doesn't look bad at all
Played this for a few months at launch on PS4 years ago. It's an alright action/rpg/mmo. But like Warframe it's a live service, so I have zero interest in playing the game again.
Nice i love these kinda mmo. So will deff download this.
@Forill Yep same here
@Miyamotosan i'd rather have DQ10 or Phantasy Star online since they already are available for Switch but they can't be bothered to release them outside Japan.
Russian power fantasy right in your FACE! ka-POW!
Had my MMORPG phase about 15 years ago with Everquest, so maybe not for me
Skyforge is better than it has any right to be. And the ripped stacked fitthicc battlewaifus with physics in chests, butts, and thighs... sublime.
Played this briefly on PS4, I didn't stick with it, but maybe I'll enjoy it more if I can take it anywhere instead of being stuck to the TV with it.
@grayadamson I have been hoping that comes to Switch since DC Universe Online came out. I have sunk thousands of hours into it but the idea of being able to play it in most places on my Switch is very appealing. Hopefully one day soon.
Gods and monsters again (see article subtitle). Careful, Monster beverage may be monitoring.
This is PSO2xFExL2xGW2 Online Multiplayer Game roled in one. I am very happy!
It looks cool, but it's odd that all the players are immortal. Wouldn't that cause the combat to lose a bunch of its meaning?
Really feel like the bit with sciencey girl and guitar girl felt super disjointed and unfitting... Other than that looks like an interesting CGI movie.
@BulbasaurusRex I was thinking the same thing. If we're Immortals how are we getting hurt?
