Nintendo has teamed up with Daedlic Entertainment and Indoor Astronaut on the latest Switch Online Game Trial. At least in Japan, Unrailed! can be played for free between March 29 and April 4, assuming you’re a subscriber of the service. The game will also have a 50 percent discount until April 11.

Nintendo sometimes extends these Game Trials to North America and Europe, so we’ll keep an eye out for any news about plans for the west. In the meantime, you should be able to play Unrailed! for free during the period mentioned above so long as you create a Japanese Nintendo Account, set it up and your Switch system, and download the trial from the Japanese eShop.

Ninja Gaiden: Master Collection

Update 2 (3/22): Koei Tecmo has also confirmed to Nintendo Everything that just like in North America, Ninja Gaiden: Master Collection is digital-only in Europe.


Update: Koei Tecmo has officially confirmed to Nintendo Everything that Ninja Gaiden: Master Collection is digital-only in the west. We’ll let you know about Europe, but it’s likely the same there as well.


Original (3/19): Koei Tecmo today announced a Digital Deluxe Edition for Ninja Gaiden: Master Collection. It will include a 70-page digital art book, a soundtrack featuring over 180 tracks, and all three games: Ninja Gaiden Sigma, Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2, and Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor’s Edge.

Collectors interested in Ninja Gaiden: Master Collection may be disappointed to hear that the release could be digital-only in the west. Retailer Videogamesplus claims that North America and Europe will not have a physical version. We’ve followed up with Koei Tecmo for clarification.

If you are interested in picking up Ninja Gaiden: Master Collection physically, you’ll be happy to hear that there will be a retail option in Asia with English support. Play-Asia is taking pre-orders here.

Despite being four years old, Zelda: Breath of the Wild is still very much alive and well. That’s especially so within the fan community. Just this past week, there’s been attention surrounding a major mod that adds even more content to the game.

Over 50 fans came together to create the mod (led by CEObrainz), which is known as “Second Wind”. It contains new quests, weapons, NPCs, and enemies as well as additional features like an original crafting mechanic.

Here’s the mod description relayed by YouTuber Waikuteru:

Monster Harvest

Merge Games and Maple Powered Games have set a final release date for the action farming RPG Monster Harvest. Initially, it will be landing digitally on May 13. A physical version will follow on June 8 in North America and June 4 in Europe.

Here’s an official overview of Monster Harvest with plenty of details:

Romance Three Kingdoms Atelier Ryza 2

Two of Koei Tecmo’s franchises will soon be crossing over as part of a new collaboration. Later this week Romance of the Three Kingdoms XIV: Diplomacy and Strategy Expansion Pack Bundle will be receiving free DLC based on Atelier Ryza 2: Lost Legends & the Secret Fairy.

The main characters of Atelier Ryza 2 will be represented here with Ryza, Klaudia, Lent, and Tao. Party members Patricia, Clifford, and Serri will be included as well.

Masahiro Sakurai tends to recognize a lot of gaming anniversaries, and often acknowledges these events on his Twitter account. Today, it’s actually one of his own titles that celebrated a birthday. Kid Icarus: Uprising first launched in Japan on March 22, 2012. It’d come west a day later.

On Twitter, Sakurai celebrated Kid Icarus: Uprising with a simple Smash Bros. screenshot. He also mentioned how he receives many fan requests for a sequel or a remake, though added that this would be “difficult.”

If you own the season pass for Override 2: Super Mech League, you can now get your hands on Black King. The character has gone live alongside the game’s latest update.

Modus Games says “Black King is a ravenous Kaiju from the Ultraman anime with the power to rip enemies to shreds with ease.” Ultraman and Bemular were previously made available in the season pass, with Dan Moroboshi to follow “in the coming months.”

Here’s a trailer for Black King:

The Caligula Effect 2
