Bayonetta 3

PlatinumGames is still keeping quiet on Bayonetta 3, which was announced for Switch at The Game Awards back in 2017. However, in an interview with VGC, studio head Atsushi Inaba did share a nugget of information regarding the team’s approach to development. Bayonetta 3 will involve a change in design process based on Platinum’s experience creating the first two entries in the series, Inaba said.

Outside of Bayonetta 3, Inaba was also happy to talk about PlatinumGames in general and tease future plans. In that same interview, he emphasized the importance of 2019 and how the company is “building a new foundation that in later years will pay dividends.”

Blades of Time

Back in 2012, Gaijin Entertainment made the time-warping hack-and-slash game Blades of Time for Konami. Several years later, it’s making a comeback on Switch.

Gaijin Entertainment announced today that Blades of Time is returning on Switch. It will be packed with a revamped multiplayer mode in which “players can engage in action-packed MOBA combat leading hordes of NPC monsters against the armies of other players.”

Treasure Stack, a falling block puzzle game with grapple-powered platforming, is about to receive its latest update. It’s been announced that version 1.0.3 should be live on Switch very soon.

Treasure Stack’s latest update includes the first theme update complete with OST piece, three new season exclusive skins to unlock, and a rematch option for all online play modes. Switch players should look for the patch’s arrival within the next few days.

Mighty Switch Force! Collection

Shantae developer WayForward created Mighty Switch Force! for 3DS back in 2011, with a sequel that followed roughly two years later. Both eventually found their way to Wii U. All of these years later, WayForward looks to be revisiting the Mighty Switch Force! titles once again.

Mighty Switch Force! Collection was rated in Europe for Switch and other platforms today. The classification mentions four titles. This suggests that along with Mighty Switch Force! and Mighty Switch Force! 2, it’ll also include the Steam games Mighty Switch Force! Hose It Down and Mighty Switch Force! Academy.

SNK published the latest trailer for Samurai Shodown today focusing on Shiki. We’ve attached the new video below.

Here’s a look:

Psyonix has announced that is is joining the Epic Games family. In other words, the developer has been purchased.

The good news is that Rocket League will be unaffected by the acquisition. Psyonix says it will continue with “frequent updates that have new features, new content, and new ways to play the game for as long as you’ll have us.” Gameplay will remain the same.
