No price details for the game have been released, but Mighty Kingdom said their first console title will be “priced competitively” with revenues to be split with Funcom.
A limited demo version of the game on Nintendo Switch is being released today.

“Conan Chop Chop offers a uniquely Mighty Kingdom take on Conan the Barbarian,” he said.
“We’ve created an experience which will appeal to a broad audience with an ESRB E PEGI rating of 7+ suitable for parents and children alike. We can’t wait to share it with the world.”
Founded in 2010 and chaired by former ABC boss Michelle Guthrie, Mighty Kingdom has grown to become Adelaide’s largest independent game developer and is the anchor tenant of the Game Plus development hub on Pirie Street.
The company listed on the ASX in April last year.
Mighty Kingdom also announced last month the finalisation of a two-year co-development partnership with Canadian mobile developers East Side Games.
The Vancouver-based firm is working with Mighty Kingdom on a “soon-to-be announced” mobile game based on a “popular legacy science fiction franchise” set to be released in early 2022.
In total, the two companies say they will deliver four games during their partnership.
