Rosae Ex Ludis recently opened a Kickstarter campaign for Blood Nor Water. The project has reached its $12,500 goal with less than three days remaining, and will be coming to Switch.

Blood Nor Water “is a narratively driven strategy game focusing on a small band of soldiers trying to find their place in a war that is bigger than themselves.” You can find a trailer below, and the Kickstarter campaign here.

Nintendo Switch

GameXplain has posted a video showing off the new Switch update in action. Take a closer look at version 6.0.0 below.

Dangen Entertainment has announced that it will publish two new games on Switch. Devil Engine, along with Astalon: Tears of the Earth, will both be released on the eShop.

Devil Engine is a side-scrolling shooter while Astalon: Tears of the Earth is a 2D action game and Renaine is a platformer. We have more details and trailers for both projects below.

The latest episode of Nintendo’s Japanese show Nyannyan Neko Mario Time has now gone live. We’ve included it below.

Today’s Switch update has introduced some new functionality worth highlighting. Interestingly, Nintendo has added digital game sharing across multiple systems.

Once you connect to the eShop, you can designate a Switch system as the “primary console”. Other units can act as a “non-primary console”. If the primary console starts playing a game, the person with the non-primary console will have to stop. Additionally, the non-primary console needs to be connected to the internet.

This information from Nintendo sheds additional light on the situation:

As mentioned a short while ago, the big 6.0.0 firmware is out now for Switch. After going through the firmware upgrade, you’ll notice that a controller update is available. Both Joy-Con will be updated.

Usually it’s not entirely clear what’s included with the controller updates. Still, you’ll want to make sure you go through the process so that everything is in order.

Update: Full update notes from Nintendo added below.


Original: Switch’s next major update is live. Version 6.0.0 is out now for all users, highlighted by the addition of Nintendo Switch Online features.

Nintendo hasn’t published the full details about the update, but they should be arriving soon. We’ll add them in here as soon as we have the information.

Nintendo has updated the release schedule on its platforms for the week of September 27. Here’s a look at the upcoming digital download schedule:

Do you have any extra My Nintendo Gold Points lying around? Do you plan on picking up the new NES controllers for Nintendo Switch Online games? If so, you might be interested to hear about a new offer currently live on My Nintendo in Europe.

The rewards site has added in three different vouchers that can be used to lower the price of the controllers. The values are £1.00, £3.00, and £5.00, which cost 100, 300, and 500 Gold Points respectively. Vouchers can be used to discount the controller price when orders open on the official store.

Here’s the full notice from Nintendo:

With the games we’ve heard about being exempt from Nintendo Switch Online, it’s mostly been for free-to-play titles. Jackbox Games, however, has confirmed that its Switch releases will also be included.

All previous entries in The Jackbox Party Pack will not require a Nintendo Switch Online subscription. The same goes for The Jackbox Party Pack 5, due out this fall. This presumably applies to Drawful 2 as well.
