Azur Lane: Crosswave

Azur Lane: Crosswave, a 3D action shooter, arrives on Switch in the west next week. Take a look at some footage in the video below.

Azur Lane: Crosswave is due out for Switch on February 16 in North America and February 19 in Europe.

As we typically see with the Nintendo Switch Online NES and SNES releases, the latest updates will be different for the west and Japan.

All regions will be getting Pyscho Dream. But Japan’s lineup includes Shin Megami Tensei II, in addition to Mario’s Picross (already out overseas) and Solomon’s Key 2.

It Takes Two

Deep Rock Galactic

The popular co-op FPS Deep Rock Galactic is unlikely to get a Switch version anytime soon. In an interview with The Gamer, Ghost Ship Games CEO Søren Lundgaard revealed that the team explored the possibility. Ultimately though, the lack of memory has prevented any sort of port from happening.

Lundgaard said:

IGN shared a new Monster Hunter Rise video today that shows off all customizable options available for your Palico and Palamute Buddies from the game’s beginning. Check it out below.

Monster Hunter Rise debuts for Switch on March 26.

Crash Bandicoot 4: It's About Time

Crash Bandicoot 4: It’s About Time appears to be more than just a simple port on Switch. Twitter user Kanozu_ put together a few comparison screenshots with the PlayStation 4 version, which show that the team did more than merely decrease the resolution.
