Square Enix has very slowly been speaking about what to expect from Dragon Quest XI on Switch. Although the RPG initially launched in Japan last year and is heading west in September, the Switch version is still a long way off.
We at least have confirmation now that Dragon Quest XI on Nintendo’s console is based on the PlayStation 4 release. Producer Hokuto Okamoto finally shared the news at PAX East 2018 last weekend. This had been widely speculated in the past, but it’s the first time Square Enix has gone on the record with that news officially.

Third-person shooters and mature titles weren’t overly prevalent on the system, so the studio wanted to step in and fill the void. High Voltage saw some success with The Conduit, but had also promised another Wii shooter that never saw the day of light – that being The Grinder.
Liam Robertson and Unseen64 have taken a deep dive into the history of the first-person horror shooter and its development, including why it was eventually cancelled. You can watch the full report below.

We’re not sure what the holdup was, but Amazon has finally opened pre-orders for Mega Man Legacy Collection 1 + 2. You can reserve the package here. If you have a Prime membership, you’ll save 20%.
Mega Man Legacy Collection 1 + 2 actually went up for pre-order a little while back, but after an incredibly short window, Amazon closed reservations. We assume that pre-orders will now remain open for good.
Other new Switch pre-orders on Amazon include My Hero: One’s Justice, SNK 40th Anniversary Collection, SteamWorld Dig 2, and Mercenaries Saga Chronicles.
