The most recent Nintendo Direct was a little longer than usual, but that is only because it packed quite the punch. With announcements flowing from it like a fresh creek of glorious gaming goodness, a diamond in the rough appeared. About halfway through the stream, Tencent Games’ Arena of Valor was shown to be coming to the Nintendo Switch. For those playing at home, this will be the first MOBA to arrive on the console.

As it is with similar games in the genre, Arena of Valor will contain various heroes from a myriad of classes. Mages, assassins, healers, tanks, fighters, and more will all be available for players to pick as their main. Fight your way to the enemy’s base in a few different game modes. Depending how combative one is feeling, 5v5, 3v3, and 1v1 will all be present. Check out all of the action to come in the preview down below:

Arena of Valor may look very familiar, that’s because it is from the same umbrella under which popular League of Legends resides. It might also be recognizable because it’s a mobile game that made its way to Europe after changing its name from Strike of Kings, or Honor of Kings, which it was known as in China. Unfortunately, no release date has been announced as of yet, but a free beta is set to arrive on the Switch sometime this winter. Needless to say, it’s time for Switch owners to start getting excited about some MOBA goodness!
