On June 17, Coffee Stain Publishing and game developer Lavapotion plan to launch their turn-based strategy RPG titled “Songs of Conquest” for Nintendo Switch in the Americas, Europe, and Australia. For regions including Japan, Hong Kong, and Korea, the release date is set for June 19. The companies have officially made this announcement.
Back in the spring of 2022, I was thrilled to dive into the Early Access version of “Songs of Conquest” on PC through Steam, Epic Games Store, and GOG. Finally, after what felt like an eternity, the full release arrived on May 20, 2024. The wait was worth it as the game was now available for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series on November 12, 2024. To top it off, mobile versions for iOS and Android were released on March 13, 2025, allowing me to conquer new territories on-the-go!
Here is an overview of the game, via its store pages:
