Kingdom Two Crowns is a rather good resource management / strategy game on Switch, and since its release in late 2018 it's had a few enjoyable free updates to keep things fresh. Publisher Raw Fury has now confirmed that its first 'premium DLC' will arrive on 16th November, titled Norse Lands. Though the trailer doesn't actually show the Switch logo, it's been confirmed in the press release and on social media that Switch is included in the update and DLC.
This DLC (which isn't yet priced at time of writing) will offer a new campaign and plenty of content, according to the official pitch.
With Norse Lands, the award-winning Kingdom Two Crowns world vastly grows in scope. A new sixth land to explore, pets to tame, along with many updates to gameplay, both big and small. Notable additions offered in this premium DLC include:
- Norse Rulers: Sit atop mighty Norse steeds and wield the powers of the Norse gods themselves. Viking-influenced rulers offer a whole new way for players to explore, build, defend and conquer the lands of the ice and snow.
- Norse Citizen Jobs: best exemplified by the powerful Berserker, an exceptional warrior, the citizens of Norse Lands will defend their Kingdom and defeat the Greed at all costs with a shield in hand.
- All Citizens Defend: in accordance with the Norse warrior culture, the citizens of Norse Lands stand at the ready to protect the realm against looming threats. Whether a Peasant, Vanguard, Farmer, Archer, or Builder, they will defend their land or go to Valhalla trying!
- The Harsh North: all-new weather effects are sure to make players feel both the beauty and the unrelenting nature of Norse Lands to their very bones. And when cold winter sets in, rulers need to consider their strategies for survival wisely.
- Greed: A whole new breed of Greed to defend against…
16th November will also bring a free patch for all players, the 'Conquest' update. They're changes based on user feedback:
There is the new Citizen House that can be built on the ruins of a vagrant camp that gives you a ready supply of new citizens - at a cost of coin. The townspeople received coaching to address some of their annoying habits. As a result, they are now better at their jobs. Battle also sees refinements, including the pace of enemy waves, unit balance, decay, and this is just to name a few.
Let us know if you're a fan of Kingdom Two Crowns - are you tempted to pick up the Norse Lands DLC?

I absolutely love this game, and am so excited!
Picked this up on sale, and quite happy with the purchase! Need to spend more time with it though…. Diablo 2 has its hooks in me currently….
My son and I have gotten a lot of miles out of this game. The DLCs probably a no-brainer as long as the Price Is Right.
Voting this game as the most addictive game on switch. Once ya worked out what to do that is which means dying more than once to get the hang on it.
How much is it?
@CactusMan I've tried like 4 or 5 times to get into this game, and I keep getting to a point where I'm just stuck. I run out of new peasants and can't expand, but keep getting my butt kicked come nighttime. Is there an endgame to each land you're in? I'm still stuck on the first!
@CactusMan @aznable this game is like dark souls was. No hints, just a world to explore and figure out. Set up camp, clear a field, and kill rabbits…expand slow. Set up a farm and grow, get puke guys for fishing. Just go slow, it might take 15-20 days to leave first island. Soon, you be down to 6-7. explore multiple islands before trying to take down portals. Build strong walls and lots of archers. I’ve logged maybe 1000 hours between both on switch and usually pick it up every couple months for a while still.
@Donutman Solid advice, thank you!
@Donutman always leave 2 trees, one on either side, at the camps or they stop spawning peasants for you to recruit. Otherwise clear out all the trees for hunting and farming. Don't stop recruiting and lean into farming when you can.
@strongest_link thanks, but those others need advice . I just need to quit playing
@Donutman Oops, @ 'ed the wrong person. My bad.
@aznable This was meant for you: always leave 2 trees, one on either side, at the camps or they stop spawning peasants for you to recruit. Otherwise clear out all the trees for hunting and farming. Don't stop recruiting and lean into farming when you can.
@strongest_link Imma give that a try tonight!
@aznable How'd it go?
@strongest_link Legit can make it from island to island now! Starting to make more sense, though extra characters you can pick up, like this old lady looking person who comes out of a one-diamond house... I have no idea what her function is.
Also, the Dead Lands version allows you to become a new character who can turn into a bat (I'm thinking Gebel from Bloodstained, but the dood looks old.). I have no idea how to change back to Miriam... her Ice thing is super useful.
All in all, thanks for the help!
