catan no online multiplayer

Starting next week, online multiplayer functionality will no longer be accessible in the Switch version of Catan.

The situation is unfortunately a bit out of Asmodee Digital’s control. The sole reason why the feature is going away comes down to GameSparks having its servers shut down. Catan’s online is based around GameSparks, which is an external service provided by Amazon.

Azure Striker Gunvolt 3 review

System: Switch
Release Date: July 28, 2022
Developer: Inti Creates
Publisher: Inti Creates


It’s hard to believe it’s been almost ten years since Azure Striker Gunvolt debuted on 3DS, having spawned sequels and spinoffs since then. All of these games expanded the universe and repertoire of Inti Creates’ expertise in 2D platforming that rightfully feels like a modern spiritual successor and take on the Mega Man formula. Now with Azure Striker Gunvolt 3, the studio has bumped production up tenfold and created arguably the best in the series yet, with tons of optimization, upgrades, and options to make it the most approachable and enjoyable game so far.

Toy Soldiers HD delayed 2022

We’ve previously gone over the many delays Toy Soldiers HD has experienced since the game was first made known a couple of years ago. Initially, it was on track to launch in Spring 2020, but was delayed to 2021. Then when it was planned for last August, the game was moved back to September 9. After being given a new September 30 date, Accelerate Games delayed the Switch version indefinitely.

Toy Soldiers HD received a new August release date on Switch earlier this month and we were hoping that would be the end of the delays. Unfortunately though, it’s been pushed back once again.

Accelerate Games said in a statement:

The team behind Xenoblade Chronicles 3 has spoken about the character designs in the game, which was apparently “a hellish process of trial and error.”

Monolith Soft’s Tetsuya Takahashi said in a recent interview that the characters were made taller and they were designed “to be not too flashy to match the tone of the story.” Coming up with the look for Noah in particular was no easy task.
