Jotun: Valhalla Edition Is Coming to Nintendo Switch this Month 1

Prepare to set your sun dials for adventure as Jotun: Valhalla Edition is hitting Nintendo Switch consoles on April 27th.

The Thunder Lotus developed game features hand-drawn Norse Mythology-based exploration with a high level of difficulty. In Jotun, you play as Thora, a deceased Viking warrior who died an inglorious death and who as a result has to impress the Gods in order to gain passage intto Valhalla.

Jotun: Valhalla Edition originally came out in September of 2015 on PC and Linux and came to PlayStation 4, XBox One, and Wii U in 2016. Since then it has sold over 1 million copies and received significant acclaim along the way. Thunder Lotus Games president Will Dube said that having Jotun: Valhalla Edition on Nintendo Switch holds an extra significance for him.

Playing a Thunder Lotus game on a handheld console brings me way back. One of my earliest gaming memories is passing the Game Boy back and forth with my brothers during road trips. I hope we can create similarly epic memories for new Vikings across the world!”
