Yes, the adorable mixture of life sim and strategic planning is now on both Nintendo’s beloved handheld and PlayStation 4, so if you’re tired of playing the free-to-play title on both iOS and Android, you’ve got more options to choose from now. You can even play with either the Switch’s touch screen or Joy-Con controllers, depending on your preference.

Fallout Shelter originally debuted back during Bethesda’s E3 2015 show and has been going strong ever since. Following its arrival on iOS and Android, it leapt to Windows PC in 2016 and Xbox One in 2017, so it was only a matter of time before we saw it march to other devices. It’s also attracted 29 million players hours logged during the first month of the game, which is certainly nothing to sneeze at. It’s now reached over 120 million players, according to Bethesda’s Todd Howard.

Check out the highlight from the press conference below, and make sure you nab the new versions of the game for yourself!
