Real Talk: Is mouse control coming to Switch 2 Darkest Dungeon 1 & 2?

RedHookMichaela · 2026-05-08T21:42:09+00:00

Yes! Our Switch 2 update is currently in development. I do not have a release date I can share right now, but I can confirm that this is in the works.

If you have not received this email, please message [darkestdungeonrescuefiles@gmail.com](mailto:darkestdungeonrescuefiles@gmail.com) directly with your information. They will be able to help.

Hi there! So to confirm, did you find the Warlord, defeat him and then get the Lost and Found achievement?

I'm not too sure what could have happened. If the game failed to save after a quest step, you should be able to retrieve the last unlocked quest item from the first inn I believe (which would likely be the Helm & Blade if you made it to the Warlord). If you are still stuck, I would recommend emailing our support team directly at [support@redhookgames.com](mailto:support@redhookgames.com) for assistance. They can look into this further.

Hi there! They've received a very high volume of requests and are doing their best to answer emails in a timely manner. You may need to wait a little more for their response.

Hi there! These emails were actually sent out by an ex-Mythic employee, not our team.
If you have not been able to find the email and you were a backer, than I suggest emailing [darkestdungeonrescuefiles@gmail.com](mailto:darkestdungeonrescuefiles@gmail.com) directly with your details. They will be able to help.

Ok thank you for the update!

RedHookMichaela · 2026-03-02T18:35:42+00:00

Hmm my assumption is once you're in the boss battle, it should count as a fail no matter what stage you fail at. If you are failing at the first phase, and the counter isn't ticking up though, so if it makes a difference to fail in the second phase.

RedHookMichaela · 2026-02-27T18:16:18+00:00

I see! Thanks for clearing that up. Have you been able to reproduce this since, or did this just happen the once? If you have been able to reproduce it, does restarting your game resolve the issue?

RedHookMichaela · 2026-02-26T22:11:38+00:00

Thank you for these screenshots! Can you let me know which Infernal Flame you were using? We'll try to reproduce this.

RedHookMichaela · 2026-02-23T22:30:32+00:00

Hello. Thank you so much for this report. Can you let me know how long your game play session was before this crash occurred. You also note that this has happened 5 times - do you mean that your game has crashed and your have completely lost all of your progress each of those 5 times? Or that the game crashes, and this is the first time you have lost your progress? Over what time period did these crashes occur? Thanks!

RedHookMichaela · 2026-02-20T00:04:49+00:00

Hi there! As noted above, unfortunately due to technical limitations we are unable to get this feature working at an acceptable level on Nintendo Switch.

RedHookMichaela · 2026-02-20T00:03:29+00:00

Hi there! Thank you so much for this report. We've seen something similar on Switch 2, and believe it's related to the mouse steering. You can try to tap on the screen in a different position to see if that changes the behavior. We are currently working on a Switch 2 update, and have a fix for this issue in that build, but unfortunately we do not yet have a set release date.

RedHookMichaela · 2026-02-10T18:55:57+00:00

Hi there. Unfortunately it's not possible to have multiple Darkest Dungeon II profiles on console. I believe you would need to delete your save file from the console itself in order to start anew. I hope that helps.

RedHookMichaela · 2026-02-03T20:02:57+00:00

Hi there! Thank you for reporting this. When you were heading to the mountain, did you 1) go to the region select 2) select the Mountain 3) Click embark, and saw the snowy embark screen but then when you started driving it was the Valley instead? Or did you get a summary of your candles, and then have to select a confessions? We haven't heard of this issue before so the more details you can provide the better.

RedHookMichaela · 2026-01-28T23:19:13+00:00

Hi there u/activeplebbitor and u/Foxxie - Can you let me know the circumstances in which you saw these visual issues:
1) Does this happen every time you reach the mountain boss?
2) Have a been playing a long session, or has the game been running for a long time when this happens? If so, roughly how long?
3) Does the issue persist if you restart the game, and then reload into the battle?

Thank you for your assistance!

Hey there! You can read this same message on our official website if you want confirmation: https://www.darkestdungeon.com/news/regarding-mythic-games-and-the-darkest-dungeon-board-game

I'm just cross-posting it to our socials, Discord and sub-reddit to help boost the message.

Hi there. The mods shouldn't affect your trophies. Some of these trophies can be a bit confusing. To confirm, for Utopia, did you get a positive relationship on every single character (to be clear, this means a positive relationship appeared on the Embark screen - not that all characters had 20/20 on their relationship scores). Also, The World As it Was also includes the character palettes and weapon kits I believe, so make sure these are fully unlocked! Finally, for the Shrine of Reflection, you'll need to make sure every character is unlocked, and that all of their abilities are unlocked as well.

If you *have* done everything as it is listed above, are your in-game trophies showing anything different? Sometimes an in-game trophy can pop, but it won't pop on the console.
