A promo website for a Toy Soldiers collection has gone live, featuring the games of: Toy Soldiers 2: Finest Hour, Toy Soldiers: Cold War HD and Toy Soldiers HD (separate games but the same website). All three are confirmed to be coming to Switch. 

On the website the release dates listed are saying that Toy Soldiers 2: Finest Hour is coming in Autumn 2020, but it is unsure if this is for the PS4 and Xbox One edition or the Switch as well. 

Toy Soliders HD is specifically mentioned to be a Switch version coming in Spring 2020 with these improvements included:

  • New content

  • New options

  • New difficulty

  • HD graphics and texture overhaul

  • Improved camera and controls

  • DLC included in the campaign flow

Finally, Toy Soldiers: Cold War HD is also a Switch version of the game, mentioned to be coming this Summer. Two trailers, one for Cold War and the first game (not the HD version), have been included below and more information can be found on the official teaser site here.

Shantae and the Seven Sirens

System: Switch
Release date: May 28, 2020
Developer: WayForward
Publisher: WayForward


It’s crazy to think that it’s been almost twenty years now since the half-genie hero, Shantae, was introduced to the gaming world way back on the Game Boy Color. The debut entry not only laid the foundation of what would become a long-running and incredible platforming franchise, but at the time pushed pixel art to the absolute limits of its associated hardware. The series laid dormant for quite some time before Risky’s Revenge popped back up in 2010, and since then has seen a ton of success with a healthy schedule of releases. Now Shantae is back on an all new adventure that fine-tunes the HD art from Half-Genie Hero, and brings another incredible Metroidvania that sees new and old faces alike joining in to save the day.

After it was announced over a year ago, Samurai Shodown NeoGeo Collection has finally been given a release date. The game will launch via the eShop on July 28 followed by a physical edition sometime this summer, SNK has announced.

Here’s a bunch of information about Samurai Shodown NeoGeo Collection as well as a trailer:
