Beyond the Switch release, there’s one last challenge for players on all platforms. The devs are tossing in SovKhan 300, who will be available to face off against as post-game content for those who have bested the Crimson Citadel mode. Representing SovKhan in his “true ultimate form,” the addition will go live as a free update on consoles and PC alongside the Switch version.
Expanded language support is also on the way, timed nicely with the multi-platform launch in Asia and Japan. Starting on April 11, a patch will be deployed to add in support for Japanese, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Korean, and Thai language options across all platforms.
If you don’t feel like waiting until the Switch drop,Slave Zero Xis currently available on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam and GOG. It’squite good.
