Perfect Dark Switch Online issues

Perfect Dark was one of the surprise additions to the Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack service as part of yesterday’s Nintendo Direct, but unfortunately, fans were quick to discover that it’s plagued with a number of issues. What’s especially concerning is that these problems weren’t present when the title first came to the N64 all of those years ago.

Graslu00 shared a breakdown of the current situation on social media. Everything is outlined in the post here, but for a quick rundown of what’s been found currently:

Transhumance

This week, Ukiyo Games announced Transhumance as its first project. It will be available on Switch when development wraps up further down the line.

Transhumance is a walking sim at its core, but it’s also described as a “narrative” and “poetic” experience. You’ll ultimately lead a flock of ewes during the periodic migrations between winter pastures on the plains and summer pastures in the mountains.

Here’s some additional information:

Pokemon Unite update 1.14.2.10

Pokemon Unite is back with another update, and version 1.14.2.10 is now available.

The game is preparing for the return of Pika Party quick battles. Other than that, the latest balance adjustments are included – and there are quite a number of them.

Here’s the full rundown:

May 30: Already released on mobile, Cat Rescue Story is now making the jump to Switch. Nacon announced that it’s publishing the game on Nintendo’s console, where it will come out on September 26, 2024.

Cat Rescue Story gives players the opportunity to renovate a pet shelter. They’ll take in and care for cates, ultimately finding loving homes for them.

Donkey Kong Country Returns developer

If you’ve been wondering who the developer is behind Donkey Kong Country Returns HD, we now have that answer. It turns out Forever Entertainment is working on the port. That news comes from an official notice posted following the announcement.

This is the first time Nintendo and Forever Entertainment are working so closely together on a re-release. In 2021, Forever announced that it was receiving “significant financial backing” from the company. Read more about that here.

Eden Genesis release date

Eden Genesis is closing in on its release date, and on Switch, it should be arriving towards the end of the summer. Aeternum Game Studios confirmed today that it’s heading to Nintendo’s console this September.

Aeternum Game Studios previously announced its latest game at the end of last year. The original plan was to ship it in early 2024, but that target was missed.

For those that need a refresher on what to expect, check out the following overview:
