Siegecraft Commander Catapulting to Nintendo Switch Sept. 19

SYDNEY – Sept. 5, 2018 – Siegecraft Commander, the action-strategy game hybrid from Blowfish Studios, will hurtle toward Nintendo Switch™ on Sept. 19, 2018. Lead an army of troops on a raging battlefield and construct a network of offensive and defensive structures to strengthen their positions and demolish enemy fortifications.
