Phrasefight recently debuted on the Switch in eShop in Japan. Have a look at some gameplay footage in the video below.

Dragon Quest Builders 2 ended up selling roughly 200,000 copies in its first week, according to Media Create. The sales split between the Switch and PlayStation 4 versions were pretty similar, with Nintendo’s console just slightly behind. Dengeki adds that Dragon Quest Builders 2 sold through 50% of its initial shipment in Japan.

How does that stack up to the original? Well, it’s a bit difficult to compare since the first entry in the Dragon Quest Builders series came out on Switch well long after the initial release. However, the original title did end up selling 368,000 copies in its first week on the PlayStation 4, so Dengeki feels that initial sales are a bit on the slow side. We’ll hopefully see things pick up for the year-end and New Year sales.

Fire Emblem Heroes has brought back one of its prior events. Bound Hero Battle Revival: Hector & Matthew is live, and will be active until January 4.

The latest event features the pair of Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade characters in Special Maps. Limited-time quests are available as well. Players can send Alfonse: Prince of Askr and Fjorm: Princess of Ice into battle to earn Orbs as rewards.

Hamster has sent out early word about next week’s NeoGeo game on Switch. On January 3, Ragnagard will be available via the eShop.
