"Early last year, German developer Daedalic Entertainment strayed from their usual fare of point-and-click adventures and released the tactical turn-based RPG, Blackguards. Set in the universe of the popular European pen-and-paper series The Dark Eye, Daedalic strived to maintain the tabletop rule set while presenting a motley crew of characters that were anything but your typical gallant heroes. It was a valiant first effort, but not without its share of design and technical flaws. Blackguards 2 promised a simpler, more streamlined approach to the rules, and added features that broke the linear progression in the first game. Some of the tweaks do mange to make character management more accessible and the combat system more fluid, however other changes have hampered the pace of the game, with an interface that is still grossly convoluted.

Danny Martinez of The Koalition writes: The original Blackguards 2 was released in 2015 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC by developers Daedalic Entertainment. I mention this immediately because those who are looking for a modern story, RPG mechanics, and graphics will not find that with this game.

Blackguards 2 is a turn-based tactical RPG with a high fantasy setting originally released in 2015, now ported to the Nintendo Switch.
