Monster Train 2

The latest EDGE review scores for issue #412 (August 2025 issue) have now been released. Games reviewed this month include the recently-released Nintendo Switch title Monster Train 2.

Here’s the full roundup:

Mario Kart World Totaka's Song

Totaka’s Song, which has been an Easter egg in Nintendo games going back decades, has been found in Mario Kart World.

The Easter egg originally snuck in by Nintendo sound designer Kazumi Totaka. The melody first appeared in the Game Boy game melody way back in 1990, but has since appeared in more recent titles like Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer (plus other entries in the series) and Mario Kart 8. Now it’s here in Mario Kart World as well.

Pokemon Unite Latias and Laios

The next playable characters have been revealed for Pokemon Unite, which will add Latias and Latios. The announcement took place during the 2025 Pokemon North America International Championships today. This will come in celebration of the game’s anniversary in July.

Unfortunately, that’s all of the information we have currently. No details have been shared about what they’ll actually be like in the game. There’s also no word on release timing.

Into the Emberlands

Daedalic Entertainment and Tiny Roar are putting Into the Emberlands on Nintendo Switch, the two sides have announced. A release is planned for July 2, 2025.

Into the Emberlands is a cozy exploration game about rebuilding the home of the charming Knacks. This also involves  saving villagers who are lost in the Miasma and collecting resources.

Monster Crown Red King 1.1.0 update

This week, Monster Crown released a brand new version 1.1.0 update on Nintendo Switch, which is known as “Red King”.

The update comes with new content and significant improvements. Mark’s Quest, the brand-new province Dino Land with a variety of new monsters, is now available. The team has also revamped monster stat generation, battle math systems, and collision system. There are also various graphical enhancements and optimizations.

The full rundown is as follows:

After another long standoff between Nintendo and Amazon, the two sides are finally working together once again.

For whatever reason, over the past year or so, it has been impossible to purchase anything sold directly by Nintendo – at least if you’re in the United States. That means the Nintendo Switch 2 console itself, recently-released and upcoming titles like Mario Kart World and Donkey Kong Bananza, and even new amiibo were unavailable on Amazon. Neither side commented on the situation, leaving fans to wonder why they could purchase or pre-order many of Nintendo’s products.

HDR is new for Nintendo on Switch 2, but there’s an important setting tucked away in the system settings that you should know about.

If you’ve connected your console to a TV at all and it’s compatible with HDR, you’ve probably already gone through the setup process. But you’ll want to head on over to the settings and then visit the “Display” tab. After that, head all the way down and select the “Adjust HDR” option.
