A new update has just gone live for Rocket League, bringing the game to version 2.15. While this update does provide a few bug fixes, it mostly focuses on Voice Chat functionality, making the feature available across all platforms.

Here are the full patch notes for Rocket League’s 2.15 version update:

Rainbow Billy: The Curse of the Leviathan physical

A physical version of Rainbow Billy: The Curse of the Leviathan is planned, according to retailer listings. Places such as GameStop have it down for May 31, 2022. That could be a tentative date, but the main takeaway here is that the title will have a general launch at retailers.

Rainbow Billy: The Curse of the Leviathan has thus far been digital-only on Switch. Since its debut back in October, it’s only been offered via the eShop.

Farm Tycoon

Sonka announced today that it’s putting Farm Tycoon on Switch. The game will be available digitally on May 27, 2022.

Farm Tycoon is described as a simulation game in which players build, produce, and control a farm. Sonka says it “took us three years to bring it to its current level with our own 2XD RENDERING technology, developed specifically for optimal Nintendo Switch experience.”

Niantic has shared details about a new Water Festival event for Pokemon GO taking place later this week featuring the introductions of Dewpider and Araquanid. On top of that, Shiny Binacle and Lapras wearing a scarf will be available.

Squish, an upcoming co-op party game for Switch, has been delayed.

The title was recently given a May 31 release date by publisher PM Studios and developer Grave Rave Games. Now, however, it will be releasing on June 28.

Nintendo’s drip feed of Splatoon 3 news continues, and the Big N has now provided a look at the game’s “charger” weapons.

These weapons, which build up power, can be used by pressing and holding ZR. You’ll then perform a powerful shot that can hit targets that are far away.
