Fire Emblem Heroes update

Nintendo has provided first details on a new Fire Emblem Heroes update. Version 2.3.0 is planned for March.

The update will be highlighted by a few different features. Nintendo and Intelligent Systems are adding a new type of map known as Rival Domains, a regular type of map called Blessed Gardens, new weapon skills, and more weapons that can be refined.

Here’s a full rundown of the update:

New evidence has emerged pointing to a release of the well-received horror puzzle platformer Little Nightmares on Switch. The news comes from the CV of a staffer at Engine Software – a company that has previously handled Switch ports. Engine Software previously worked on The Escapists 2, Blossom Tales, and Monopoly for Switch.

The employee at the studio makes it pretty clear that the port is happening. We have the relevant excerpt from the LinkedIn profile below:

After only just being announced in this week’s Famitsu, Kyogeki Quartet Fighters was released for the Switch eShop in Japan. We’ve posted the game’s trailer below.

IGN Japan posted a new Valkyria Chronicles 4 video containing 18 minutes of footage. You can watch all of the gameplay below.

The latest issue of Famitsu has shared a listing of the top 30 best-selling games in Japan for the month of January 2018, including debut digital sales for Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle. You can check out the full results below.

The time between Super Mario 3D World and Super Mario Odyssey was four years. Super Mario 3D World came to Wii U in November 2013, while Mario Odyssey launched last October.

Since it took several years for a new Super Mario game from EAD Tokyo and Odyssey arrived in time for Switch’s first year, some have wondered if the title was ever in development for Wii U. Nintendo ruled that out in the latest issue of Game Informer.

Merge Games is taking two more of its Switch titles to retail. According to Amazon UK listings, Slain: Back From Hell and The Coma: Recut are getting physical versions.

Both games are listed for May 17. Additionally, they’ll cost £24.99 each.

You can pre-order Slain: Back From Hell here. The Coma: Recut can also be reserved here.

Thanks to Carsten for the tip.

We don’t have a release date for Gekido Kintaro’s Revenge on Switch just yet, but we do have a release month. Originally announced for Q1 2018, we now have a more specific window of March. Naps Team confirmed the news on Facebook earlier today.

Gekido Kintaro’s Revenge was originally released for the Game Boy Advance. The beat ’em up will have a story mode, survival mode, and relic hunting. Each one of these can be played alone or with another player.

Voez

Voez was made available on the eShop just after Switch’s launch in March 2017. Then just last month, a physical version went on sale in Japan.

That same physical release is apparently coming stateside. We’ve spotted a listing on GameFly, which lists the boxed copy for North America.

The Takumi: Empty Vessel – Grand Hero Battle started in Fire Emblem Heroes earlier today. For a look at the event, watch the video below.
