Slayaway Camp: Butcher's Cut

We knew that Slayaway Camp: Butcher’s Cut would be coming soon to Switch. We just didn’t know when. Thanks to listings on the European and Australian eShops, we appear to have a release date.

Slayaway Camp: Butcher’s Cut is listed for a March 22 release. Digerati will be publishing the game for £13.49.

Here’s some additional information and a trailer:

It’s not available in North America just yet, but a demo for Kirby Star Allies has started distribution in Europe. Players have come across something… interesting.

Bosses in the demo can actually be defeated with Kirby doing nothing. The CPUs will actually take care of the work for you. This might be the case in the final game as well, but even if it is, standing around isn’t much fun – so you’ll probably want to actually participate in the fights.

A new Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night video was released this week that offers fans a peek inside the orchestrated recording sessions. Michiru Yamane and other composers have also spoken about the music creation process. Watch the video below.

Gal*Gun 2 was shown off during a new live stream this week. Plenty of footage can be found in the video below.

Blizzard had fans speculating about the possibility of Diablo making its way to Switch this week due to a tweet. A Diablo light was shown turning on and off in a brief video, which some interpreted as a tease.

However, that wasn’t actually the case. Blizzard has now commented on the situation officially and has stated that the tweet was intended to be “a fun community engagement piece.”

Recently announced for Japan, Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm Trilogy for Switch will be getting a western release as well. We’re waiting to hear about North America (presumably we’ll have news later today), but the European launch is also confirmed for April 26. It will be digital-only, unlike Japan.

Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm Trilogy is a compilation of the first three Ultimate Ninja Storm titles that lets players relive the story of Naruto Uzumaki from his days at the Ninja Academy to the 4th Great Ninja War. The package will include many of the DLC released for the original games such as Saskuke’s kimono costume, and allows fans to choose between heroes and villains like Naruto Uzumaki, Saskuke Uchiha, Pain or Obito Uchiha to lead into battle.

We have an English trailer for Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm Trilogy below.

Update: Added in a multiplayer highlight trailer below as well.


Original: Koei Tecmo uploaded a couple of English trailers for Attack on Titan 2 today. Videos focused on the custom character and combat are posted below.

The Switch doesn’t have a traditional activity log like the 3DS, but play time is recorded. If you visit your profile, all of the games you’ve booted up will be listed along with how long you’ve played them.

Unfortunately, with Switch reaching its first anniversary in some parts of the world, users have discovered that their play times are being reset – or at least showing that way for now. For Zelda: Breath of the Wild for example, profiles are displaying “First played 0 days ago” instead of the proper hours count.

Update: Bumped to the top. You can reserve the limited edition on Play-Asia here (with $5 off) and the standard edition here (thanks Jake and axel). We also have a few more photos below.


Original: Following Xenoblade Chronicles 2 earlier this week, Nintendo announced today that they will also release the official soundtrack for The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild in Japan. Releasing on April 25, it will come in two version: a first print limited edition and a standard edition.

The limited edition, which will cost 7,000 yen, pictured above, comes with the following:

Nintendo has updated its maintenance schedule for the following week, and several sessions are planned. Eight different listings have been added in, including My Nintendo – which is something we can’t recall seeing previously and could mean Nintendo is getting ready for the new functionality that will allow Switch owners to use Gold Points.

Here’s the full roundup of maintenance:
