Paradox Interactive has announced that Across the Obelisk, the co-op deck-builder previously only on PC, is coming to Switch on March 21st, which is today. On top of that, the game is also coming to Xbox Series S|X and PlayStation 5 later this year.

Across the Obelisk will feature cross-platform multiplayer on all formats, so you can play the four-person co-op play whether your friends are on PC, Switch, Xbox, or PlayStation 5. On top of that, the Switch version will come with all the DLC and updates the PC version has had up to now.

Check out the latest trailer, below:

Across the Obelisk is a dynamic rogue-lite game with a unique multiplayer spin on the classic deck building experience. The game challenges players to create a party from a diverse set of characters, engage in tactical card-based combat, and find a unique path across a world that changes in reaction to their decisions. Playable alone or with up to three friends, Across the Obelisk provides a different experience with each playthrough thanks to its branching world paths, highly customizable heroes, hundreds of different cards with variable upgrades, and much more.

“We’ve always wanted to evoke the feeling of playing in an RPG party with Across the Obelisk, and now our players will be able to group up with their friends no matter where they play,” said Javier de Miguel, Game Developer at Dreamsite Games.

De Miguel continued: “We want your strategies to focus on building the right decks, not on how to get a party together, so we’re thrilled to be able to offer a completely open multiplayer experience like this. We’re even making it so players don’t have to worry about who’s got which DLC – if you own any of the story expansions for Across the Obelisk, everyone in your party can play through them with you.”
