This month marks the one-year anniversary of the release of Lucas Pope's Return of the Obra Dinn, which was the game of the year for many people in 2018, and now we know when the console versions are arriving.

Pope himself took to Twitter to reveal that the Nintendo Switch, PS4, and Xbox One editions are arriving on October 18, exactly a year after the PC version launched, and we even got the stylised image of the consoles below.

If you have yet to play the game then make sure to check out our original review, and Pope has previously said that he found the structure of the game "extremely difficult" to work with, although the work did pay off.

Will this be your first time playing?
