Samurai Warriors 5

Koei Tecmo has shared a new launch trailer for Samurai Warriors 5 in celebration of today’s launch. We’ve included it below.

Samurai Warriors 5 arrives today on Switch in North America and Europe. You can read up on our review here.

In an interview with GamesBeat, GungHo Online president Kazuki Morishita discussed the performance of Ninjala. It appears to be doing well, as Morishita mentioned that the amount of downloads “grew much faster than we expected.”

Ninjala has been most popular in the United States. Japan, then France, and finally Spain round out the top four in that order.

As for the future, it looks like GungHo will revisit Ninjala at some point with even more projects. Morishita said in the same interview that the company is “thinking about doing more spinoffs” down the road.

Ninjala is out now on the Switch eShop. 

Ty the Tasmanian Tiger 2

Ty the Tasmanian Tiger 2: Bush Rescue HD has received a fairly notable update. On Switch, the game is at version 1.0.1.

Today’s update includes improved dock mode performance, loading speed improvements, and more. We’ve posted the full patch notes below.

Samurai Warriors 5

Ahead of its western release, we have a look at Samurai Warriors 5 running on Switch. View an hour of footage in the video below.

Samurai Warriors 5 releases for Switch on July 27 in North America and Europe.

Update: It seems that the strips have apparently been present in Joy-Con after all, as noted by Spawn Wave. Hopes of an official fix for drift seem to have been dashed for now.


Original: One issue Switch owners seem to encounter more than any other is Joy-Con drift. After extended use, some people notice that their controller recognizes input when the joystick isn’t actually being moved. It can cause some pretty obvious frustration since the Joy-Con essentially aren’t working as intended.

The situation has plagued Nintendo since Switch launched over four years ago. Multiple color variations of the Joy-Con have been released, but each one has come with the same Joy-Con drift problem. Now, however, some are thinking that things may have been addressed with the latest design.
