Darkest Dungeon 2 console and Nintendo Switch launch details

Red Hook Studios are yet to provide fans with any official details on when they can expect a console release date for their RPG. However, many in the community are quite certain that it will be arriving on PlayStation, Xbox, and Nintendo devices by 2024.

Much of these speculations arise from the fact that their previous title, Darkest Dungeon, had an initial release for PC and Mac (OS X) on January 2016, with it then making its way to the PlayStation 4 and PS Vita on September 2016. It then had an iOS release on August 2017, followed by a Nintendo Switch launch on January 2018, and then Xbox One in February 2018.

Darkest Dungeon 2 can likely have similar stagger launches like this, but Red Hook might even look to push these releases all at once
