Dark Alliance comes to current consoles, but there are problems on Switch

In December 2001, the franchise of Dungeons & Dragons received a video game for PlayStation 2 located on the western coast of the Forgotten Realms, Baldur’s Gate: Dark Alliance. The following year it would arrive on Xbox and GameCube, followed by GBA a couple of years later. This first time on home consoles it was very well received by fans of the role-playing game.

Without much hype, this classic has now been released for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X | S consoles. For its part, the Nintendo Switch version takes a bit longer, but that wasn’t the plan

Through Twitter, Black Isle Studios published a small statement acknowledging the problem in the Nintendo Switch eShop due to unforeseen causes, confirming the launch of Baldur’s Gate: Dark Alliance on Switch for a few days. “We are incredibly sorry for this and are working hard to remedy it as quickly as possible.”

Hey all,

Due to an unforeseen issue on the Nintendo Switch store, we’re going to have to delay the launch for a few days to fix it.
We’re incredibly sorry about this and we’re working hard to remedy this as quickly as possible.

This relaunch of Baldur’s Gate: Dark Alliance includes high resolution graphics but the same gameplay ‘hack and slash’ / acclaimed RPG from the original. As expected, it is also possible to enjoy the adventure in a local cooperative, a key piece of the taste for Dark Alliance
