Minabo

DevilishGames’ social simulation game Minabo will be appearing on Switch, the studio has confirmed. Selecta Play will be working on the port.

In the title, you’ll “walk the path of life while your turnip grows and thrives (or not) in its social relationships.” There are 25 quests to take on, a free life mode, and more.

Here’s a full overview with more information:

No Place for Bravery trailer

Ysbryd Games and Glitch Factory have shared a launch trailer for No Place for Bravery. Rather than containing gameplay, the video is entirely animated.

We have the following overview for No Place for Bravery:

Project Winter Balance of Power update

Project Winter, the eight person social deception survival game, has released a free content update on Switch.

Starting today, players can access new craftable items. These include Smoke Bombs, “chilling explosives not only create a poof of smoke to obscure vision but also rapidly reduce survivors’ warmth.” Also included are the show shoes that eliminate traces of footprints and the loud crunch of snow-steps while also providing increased movement speed for a short time. Finally, the Sound Emitter sends out audio clips over a short amount of time and a very long distance before eventually self-destructing.

That’s actually not all, as UI changes, the removal of the ability to see characters who voted in the exile booth, increased max number of roles in matches, quality of life improvements, and more are included. You can find the full patch notes for today’s Project Winter update below.

Oceanhorn 2 physical

Limited Run Games today announced plans to produce a physical version of Oceanhorn 2: Knights of the Lost Realm on Switch.

Only a standard copy will be available. However, Limited Run is also planning the Oceanhorn fan bundle, which includes a copy of Oceanhorn and Oceanhorn 2 in an Arcadian slipcase (also available separately).

Mario Rabbids Sparks of Hope Ubisoft account

Original: Those that intend to play Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope when it launches on Switch next month will apparently need to a Ubisoft account in order to play. That information comes straight from the official Ubisoft Support Twitter account.

Twitter user mattybicky asked if a Ubisoft Connect account is required for the game. In response, Ubisoft Support said “you will need to associate your Ubisoft account with the Nintendo one or, if you don’t have a Ubisoft account, to create one.”

Citizen Sleeper Refuge episode

Citizen Sleeper will roll out its next free episode titled Refuge, publisher Fellow Traveller and developer Jump Over the Age announced today. All players can access it starting on October 27, 2022.

Refuge has players entering the flotilla and learning about what happened on the moons of Ember with Sol, captain of the Pilgrim’s Seed. Read a bit more about it below.
