During today’s Nintendo Indie World Showcase, Kitfox Games announced that its dungeon-dating hybrid Boyfriend Dungeon will be launching on Nintendo Switch today.
The game arrives on the eShop for the price $19.99 USD, letting you fend off dangerous monsters and take your weapons on romantic dates. Yes, you read that correctly, your weapons.
"It's been a few years since we Kickstarted the idea, so we're glad folks have been patient," says Kitfox Lead Designer Tanya X. "Finally, we can all kiss our swords in peace, from the privacy of our own homes."
Speak for yourself, Tanya. Here's a feature list:
Key Features
- Date up to seven weapons, from dancing swords to heart-piercing daggers
- Generated action-combat dunj and challenges! Stay sharp!
- Various combat styles. For example, hit hard and dodge quickly with the dagger, or take on crowds with Lasersaber
- Each weapon type feels and plays differently
- Inclusive, tasteful approach to gender and sexuality, including male, female, and non-binary romance
- Let's get to the point: take your weapon-babes on romantic outings, such as to the club or the beach
Will you be "taking your weapon-babes on romantic outings"? Let us know in the usual place.

Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Boyfriends in a Dungeon?
(spoiler: no)
Now, I'm old, and...well...I don't get this. You date weapons?
@GrailUK Well, we already had Blades in Xenoblade Chronicles 2
@GrailUK it's no worse than the waifu simulators on Switch (if not better than).
@sanderev Good point....well made!
@CharlieGirl Lol. Probably better to be fair!
@sanderev I can go get my bladed wifu's there I guess.
@GrailUK If it helps, I think the weapons turn into people?
This is ridiculous and stupid idea in general. SIGN ME UP
@Tim_Vreeland Ahhh, now that makes sense! (Don't you just love some of the stuff you say having gaming as a hobby!)
I can’t believe this is finally coming out, they’ve been talking about it for years. I’m all for taking the absolute piss out of the waifu simulators so sign me up.
@GrailUK the part in the brackets got me 😄
im kiss a sword
you can date a girl as well so technically its not full gay
@nessisonett the game is indeed coming out
Ha ha ha. What ever next....
I cant find an answer anywhere: anybody knows if my main character can be a guy? Or do I have to be a woman? This is the only thing that keeps me from giving this a go
Does that include dating the cat too?? I am kinda confused about that cat being introduced as one of the weapons in this weapon dating simulator... is this one of those " a cat is fine too" scenarios?
Also, did anyone else get reminded of the anime Soul Eater from this game trailer?
@Fulgor_Astral This quote is from the Kickstarter page:
"Who are you exactly? You choose! You can customize your character, and choose from him, her, or them as pronouns. This doesn’t affect who you can date or what options you have."
I've played a good few hours and it's really fun! At first the dialogue really carries the game, but after you level up a little and gain more abilities with the weapons, combat is really fun!
