We originally thought that Minecraft: Story Mode – Season Two would be out on Switch back in August. That didn’t happen though, and we’ve been waiting for a new release date since.

Could November be the lucky month? Perhaps. Retailers like Amazon and GameStop have updated their listings, showing a new release date of November 6.

There’s plenty of uncertainty surrounding Telltale at the moment, so nothing is confirmed. If we hear anything else about Minecraft: Story Mode – Season Two’s release date on Switch, we’ll pass the news along.

Thanks to Jes T for the tip.

Back in 2015, Descendent Studios funded the 3D first-person shooter Descent: Underground on Kickstarter. It was imagined as a prequel to the 1994 game Descent. It was released in Steam Early Access last year, but was eventually pulled after publisher Little Orbit became involved so that a single-player campaign could be added with improvements across the board.

Descent: Underground, now simply known as Descent, is back in the news with its latest announcement. The project is essentially complete and has been confirmed for Switch. A release is planned both physically and digitally for early 2019.

Here’s a trailer:
