Terraria

Terraria updated on Switch this week to version 1.3.1. The game has received new features and items, quality of life tweaks, and a few random additions. 

The full patch notes are as follows:

Bandai Namco uploaded a new trailer today for Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 4 Road to Boruto. It’s centered around the “Next Generations” update pack, which features Momoshiki Otsutsuki and Kinshiki Otsutsuki as well as new costumes for Ino Yamanaka, Shikamaru Nara, Choji Akimichi, and more. All of the DLC will be included in the Switch release next April.

Journey to the Savage Planet

A Switch rating for Journey to the Savage Planet has popped up a couple of times now. The first instance came about a few months ago in Brazil, and there was another classification for Nintendo’s console just last week from the ESRB. Typhoon Studios creative director Alex Hutchinson has now given an official update regarding potential Switch plans.

During a recent episode of the Game Informer Show, the possibility of couch co-op was brought up. That prompted Hutchinson to say, “If we could ever get a Switch version together, I think it would be brilliant to have the two people next to each other, so we’re looking into it.” Then when asked about Switch specifically, he added that they’re “still figuring out how to handle it”, and the team would likely work with an outside company on the Switch port due to a lack of experience with the hardware.
