Red Art Games is pleased to announce the upcoming release of Heidelberg 1693 on Nintendo Switch, PS5, Xbox Series X|S, PS4 and Xbox One. Put in the Sturmfront – The Mutant War universe, Heidelberg 1693 is a gory 2D action game developed by Andrade Games and ported to consoles by Red Art Games.
Red Art Games is bringing the twisted version of Heidelberg 1693 from late 17th-century Germany to consoles around the world on November 18. On Nintendo Switch, PS5, Xbox Series X|S, PS4, and Xbox One, Heidelberg 1693 digitally costs $14.99.

Physical PEGI-rated PS5 and PS4 versions will cost €24.99, while Nintendo Switch physical versions will cost €29.99, all available from November 18. The boxed copies are limited to 2,900, 999 and 999 copies respectively. The physical versions of Heidelberg 1693 are now available for pre-order on the Red Art Games Official Online Store.
To enable PS5 players to get the full Sturmfront universe experience, Red Art Games also releases the brand new PS5 version of Sturmfront – The Mutant War: Bel Edition on Nov 18. This next-generation edition, featuring new DualSense trigger effects, is also getting a limited physical release. 999 physical PS5 copies of Sturmfront – The Mutant War: Bel Edition now available to pre-order on the Red Art Games Official Online Store for €19.99.

Heidelberg 1693 is a challenging 2D Action platformer set in a zombie-infested version of 17th century Germany in which the player takes charge of one of the famous musketeers of the French King Louis XIV. The game adds a layer of tactical combat to the genre by introducing the musketeers’ weapon of choice: the musket. Players can fire one powerful – and very effective – musket shot at a time. However, the weapon must be used wisely due to its long reset time. Heidelberg 1693 tells its bleak story – featuring real locations and historical figures – across multiple paths and endings. On PS5 and Xbox Series X|S, the Heidelberg 1693 frame rate runs at 120 fps (on compatible screens). On PS5, the game will also make use of the DualSense controller features.
Members of the press, bloggers and content creators will have the opportunity to see an early version of Heidelberg 1693 during Gamescom 2022 at the Red Art Games booth in the Business Area (hall 3.2, booth B-052).
About Heidelberg 1693
The year is 1693. War engulfs Europe as France, led by the illustrious King Louis XIV, fights against the Great Alliance. Also known as the Sun King for his luxurious taste and extravagant appearance, Louis XIV is driven by the belief that the sun – his sun – should shine on all peoples of the world. While his enemies are way too many to count, one stands out as the most dangerous of them all.
That enemy is none other than his own bastard son. Poisoned and left for dead, he emerges from the smoke and ashes of the German battlefields and makes himself known as the “Moon King“. With nothing but hatred in his heart, he turns to diabolical and forbidden sciences to build an army the likes of which the world has not seen since the days of Satan’s rebellion.
Now the dead rise from their mass graves, seeking revenge on the king who begged for their heads as he basked in glory. Can you – the Sun King’s bravest musketeer – stop the approaching and never-ending royal solar eclipse?
