April 2: Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment has just been announced for Nintendo Switch 2. It’ll be available this winter.

Building off of other games in the series, this one features the untold story from Hyrule’s distant past of the Imprisoning War that led to the events of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. According to Nintendo, it’s a “canonical tale”.

First details can be found in the following overview:

Hotel Dusk Nintendo trademark

A new trademark for Hotel Dusk: Room 215 has been filed in Japan, and some are hoping that it could mark a return of the Nintendo DS game.

We typically don’t report on Japanese trademarks as they tend to be overblown. More often than not, they are filings done to protect IPs and are not indicative of an imminent release. However, we’re in a bit of a different situation here. Whereas most Japanese trademarks for Nintendo games are for renewals, this is an entirely new filing. Additionally, Hotel Dusk now has a trademark in the country for the first time (there was previously one for its Japanese name Wish Room).

Friday the 13th: The Game Ultimate Slasher Edition

Licensing agency Striker LLC has recently mentioned Friday the 13th: The Game as an avenue for fans to experience to franchise. This was all in a recent press release announcing a new partnership with the IP.

The asymmetrical survival horror game, which previously made it to Nintendo Switch, was originally delisted in 2023 with all servers shutting down in 2024. This was due to the developers licensing rights expiring, and therefore being unable to use the Jason Vorhees IP.

The release mentions that they are overseeing all Friday the 13th products and are looking to push the franchise in new ways, specifically name dropping Friday the 13th: The Game. They even group it with more of the franchises projects that are currently in development.

Nintendo had previously been one of the bigger representatives at Gamescom, which is Europe’s largest gaming expo. However, in more recent years, the company’s attendance record has been spotty. Nintendo did appear at Gamescom 2023 which at that point was the first time in four years, but then missed last year’s show.
