Towards the end of last year, one Switch game we heard about was The Sacred Hero. Not much was shared about the project at the time, other than the fact that UK studio SiMPLiSTiC was working on the RPG.

SiMPLiSTiC returned today with a new teaser. We still don’t know much, but it’s now confirmed that The Sacred Hero will be out in 2018. See the new video below.

2K Sports has a bit of a dilemma on its hands. Kyrie Irving was named the cover athlete for the standard version of NBA 2K18 as a member of the Cleveland Cavaliers. But as ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski reports, Irving has been traded to the Boston Celtics (and I’m now dying a bit on the inside as a Knicks fan).

It’s not entirely clear how 2K will approach the situation, but logic dictates that the cover will be updated with Irving in a Celtics uniform. Kotaku reached out to the company, and we’ll report back if they provide a statement.

Just to reiterate, the news only affects NBA 2K18’s standard cover. Other versions feature Shaquille O’Neal
