In July of last year, Studio Nanafushi announced Dead or School, a side-scrolling action game with RPG elements, for Nintendo Switch. Today, they shared an update on the game’s development. The Switch version is planned for a release in Japan in August. A physical version of the game will also be available. A Western release has not yet been confirmed; however, the Steam version of the game, which is already out, features English text, so it’s certainly possible that the Switch version will be released outside Japan as well.

The developers of Overcooked 2 recently teased a new update coming to the game. We now have some more concrete info thanks to the following trailer:

The “Chinese New Year” update includes a new map with seven new levels, two new recipes (fruit platter and hot pot), two new chefs (Chinese dragon and pig) and a new game mode, Survival Mode, in which every dish you serve adds seconds to a timer, and when that timer reaches zero, it’s game over. Finally, a replay button was added to the results screen, allowing you to immediately replay a level. The update also includes several bug fixes and other minor improvements.

It seems like we are finally getting close to the release of Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night. Koji Igarashi’s spiritual successor to the Castlevania series has recently been rated by the ESRB. Usually, this means that a game is at least somewhat close to being released as a near-final build had to have been submitted to the ratings board. Bloodstained has received a “T” rating for “Blood, Partial Nudity and Violence”. Here’s the ESRB’s rating summary:

This is an action role-playing game in which players assume the role of Miriam, a cursed orphan who must battle her way through a demon-infested castle. As players traverse side-scrolling environments, they use swords, spears, pistols, and whips to battle fantastical creatures (e.g., harpies; spiked armor; demon-like birds, rodents, dogs) in melee-style combat. In one sequence, players encounter a boss character emerging from a bathtub full of blood; her magic attacks can cause blood to rain down on players and stain the walls and ceilings. Another sequence depicts an impaled corpse, with blood flowing heavily into a large fountain pool. The game also depicts a topless female boss creature (no discernible nipples).

Officially, the current release date for Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night is a vague “2019”. In late December last year, Igarashi said that the game’s development “has reached its peak”. Hopefully, a final release date announcement isn’t too far off now.

It has been a couple of months since the last Nintendo Direct – still, that hasn’t stopped Nintendo from releasing information about their upcoming games through other channels. Perhaps most notably, earlier this month, Nintendo revealed the release date and dropped a new trailer of Yoshi’s Crafted World, one of their major first-party games this year, on Twitter. Some people have been wondering whether or not this means that Nintendo might be relying more on social media for publishing big news instead of Nintendo Directs. It seems like this concern is shared by at least one of Nintendo’s investors as well, who posed this question at Nintendo’s latest financial results briefing today. Apparently this concern is unwarranted though, as Nintendo replied that there has been no change in their policy in that regard, and that the investor might have felt that way since it’s been a while since the last Direct.

Note that Nintendo has not yet released the official transcript of the Q&A from that meeting; this info is from a tweet from journalist Takashi Mochizuki, who attented the meeting. As such, it might not be 100% accurate.
