Following its successful Early Access launch, during which over 130,000 units were sold on Steam, Dwarves: Glory, Death and Loot will be released for iOS, Android and the Nintendo Switch in early 2026.

The iOS, Android and Switch ports of Dwarves: Glory, Death and Loot are being developed in collaboration between Austrian developer HammaStudios (formerly Ichbinhamma), Sidekick Publishing, and digital agency and software company ATEO. The game is scheduled for release in early 2026. It has been available on Early Access since August 2023 and was added to Instinct3's publishing portfolio in early 2025.

"With its blend of auto-battler, roguelike and strategy elements, not to mention its addictive gameplay and constant optimisation of dwarf builds, Dwarves: Glory, Death and Loot is the perfect Mobile and Switch game. Together with its playful pixel art style, it makes a game that has already thrilled thousands of PC players accessible to even more people on the go or comfortably on the sofa. We can't wait to tell you more about our first porting project," says Jasmin Oestreicher, Co-CEO and Co-Founder of Sidekick Publishing.
