AI: The Somnium Files

Spike Chunsoft will be releasing AI: The Somnium Files on Switch a few months from now. We know that Europe and Australia won’t be left behind, as the company is teaming up with an outside publisher to bring the game to other territories.

Numskull Games announced today that it will release AI: The Somnium Files in European and Australian markets. The detective game will be out both physically and digitally on September 20. This partnership will continue going forward, with Numskull handling other titles from Spike Chunsoft as well.

Out of nowhere, Nintendo has released a new update for Wii U. Version 5.5.4 is now live for all system owners worldwide.

Nintendo has yet to publish any notes about today’s firmware upgrade. That being said, it likely falls in line with previous versions. That means the following: “Further improvements to overall system stability and other minor adjustments have been made to enhance the user experience”.

Prior to today, Wii U’s last update was in September 2018. The system hasn’t received any notable feature additions since 2014.

While Phoenix Labs is working to bring Dauntless to Switch, we now know that it’s not being done entirely in-house. According to the studio’s Chris Fox, Iron Galaxy is also involved.

Iron Galaxy previously ported The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim to Switch. That turned out pretty well in the end, so here’s hoping that Dauntless also turns out well.

Amazon UK has opened pre-orders for new amiibo launching in a few months from now. The new Zelda: Link’s Awakening figure, along with the Squirtle, Ivysaur, and Snake additions in the Smash Bros. line, are all live. Each one can be found here.

These new amiibo will be available starting September 20.
