Posted on 6 years ago by Matt O'Keefe(@matt_okeefe) in Rumors, Switch | 0 comments
In this photo, there’s a description on the back of a box for Japanese title Hakuoki Shinkai: Fuukaden that reads, “Compatible with Save Data Cloud Backup of Nintendo Switch Online.” That suggests that Switch cloud saves might not be universal and instead are dependent on the game. We’ll likely learn more during tomorrow’s Nintendo Direct.

Square Enix’s Tomoya Asano discusses Octopath’s future and the Bravely series
Posted on 6 years ago by Matt O'Keefe(@matt_okeefe) in News, Switch | 0 comments
One segment of the latest issue of Famitsu was an interview with Tomoya Asano and Masashi Takahashi of Square Enix. They revealed some new information about both Octopath Traveler and hints at the future of the Bravely series. Some interesting tidbits from the interview:
- The developers of Octopath Traveler decided from the beginning not to add any DLC. They’ve just started talks about a possible sequel.
- Now that the team has grown to be the 11th Business Division, they hope to release a new RPG every year.
- The new pieces of art for the Bravely Twitter account are meant to convey that Bravely is “not a title of the past” to Square Enix, though they didn’t have any details to share about a new Bravely game.
- Since games like Octopath Traveler and Bravely titles take about four years to make, Square Enix would need at least two new franchises to hit their game a year goal.

Peculiarly, Target’s website lists the release date of the Switch version of Diablo III as November 2, leading to a lot of speculation. Every other retailer has a placeholder date of December 21, the last day of Fall 2018. Adding to the intrigue, November 2 is the first day of BlizzCon. Releasing a Diablo game on a handheld for the first time could be a very exciting way for Blizzard to kick off its annual event.
