Super Rare Games has announced a limited physical release of Kill Knight for Nintendo Switch, bringing a previously digital-only 2024 title to boxed retail for the first time.

The publisher confirmed a 4,000-unit run that will go on sale November 12, with launch windows set for 10:00 AM PT / 1:00 PM ET / 6:00 PM UK / 7:00 PM CET.

The boxed edition ships on cartridge and includes a full-color manual, an exclusive sticker, and a set of trading cards.

Super Rare Games, known for curated limited runs of indie titles on Nintendo Switch, will list the physical SKU through its online store alongside its other Switch boxed releases.

Background and gameplay

Kill Knight first arrived on Nintendo Switch as a digital download in 2024.

The game's official overview frames the player as a betrayed, once-loyal knight cast into the Abyss and reanimated in desecrated armor; the protagonist is driven by a relentless mission to confront the Last Angel.

The title mixes fast-paced combat with strategic resource management: players exploit enemy weaknesses, perform brutal executions, and juggle an arsenal that includes pistols, heavy weapons, swords, and armor loadouts.

The developer opted for a minimalist, retro-infused aesthetic that echoes 1990s neon arcades and shooters, presenting five handcrafted arenas described as eldritch, lo-fi environments.

Progression in Kill Knight revolves around surviving waves of otherworldly foes, completing in-game challenges to unlock new equipment, and competing on global leaderboards.

What’s included and how to buy

Super Rare’s physical Kill Knight package contains a Nintendo Switch cartridge, a full-color manual, an exclusive sticker, and trading cards, matching the company’s standard boxed extras for limited editions.

The run is strictly capped at 4,000 copies; interested buyers should be prepared at the announced sale times to secure a copy.

Super Rare Games’ storefront maintains a catalogue of its ongoing and past Switch boxed releases for collectors tracking limited editions.

As an item of record, Kill Knight’s move from a 2024 eShop release to a Super Rare Games limited physical edition underscores the continued demand for collectible Switch releases among indie-game collectors and players who prefer cartridge-based ownership.
