The Jackbox Party Pack 7

The Jackbox Party Pack 7 has introduced Talking Points as its latest game. The experience involves a group of players giving short speeches that revolve entirely around responding to slides that you have not seen in advance.”

Here’s a proper overview of Talking Points, along with a video:

Good Job!

Nintendo has made it a habit of teaming up with smaller studios on different Switch games over the past few years. Snipperclips got the ball rolling for the system’s launch, followed by The Stretchers in late 2019. Good Job!, the latest instance of these partnerships, just released a few months ago.

Nintendo partnered with Paladin Studios on Good Job!, which features a slew of objectives and puzzles to complete across a slew of office-themed levels. Many players have been enamored with the game and we’ve been quite curious about how the project happened, so we caught up with both companies to learn more. Producer Takao Nakano from Nintendo of America, director Masataka Takemoto from Nintendo Co., Ltd., as well as lead producer Robert Abercrombie and game director Coen Neessen from Paladin Studios all shared more about the title’s origins, its art style, how the two sides ended up working together, ideas that were ultimately scrapped, and more.

Here’s our full discussion:

Fire Emblem Heroes

Summoning Focus: Weekly Revival 17 has returned in Fire Emblem Heroes. 5-star Heroes who showed up before the start of Book II appear as focus Heroes, and the focus lineup changes each week.

You’ll be able to partake in Summoning Focus: Weekly Revival 17 until July 12.

Untitled Goose Game

Untitled Goose Game has only been available as an eShop download since launching on Switch last September. Now, however, a physical version appears to be in the cards.

A listing for the game has appeared on Amazon Germany with a September 22 release date. Pre-orders are actually live here. Skybound is apparently handling distribution.

Assuming the listing is correct, we should be receiving an official announcement regarding Untitled Goose Game’s physical release soon.

Borderlands: Game of the Year Edition

When you think about developers that have worked on notable Switch ports, the likes of Panic Button, Virtuos, and Saber Interactive come to mind. We should probably throw another name into the mix as well: Turn Me Up Games.

Although Turn Me Up hasn’t worked on a ton of Switch projects, the studio is starting to become more well-known. The company’s first project on Nintendo’s console was Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons. Then at the end of May, Turn Me Up’s ports of Borderlands 1 and 2 landed on Switch.

2K Sports made NBA 2K21 official this week, confirming that the series will again be on Switch as has been the case since 2017. Damian Lillard will be on the standard cover while Kobe Bryant is featured for the Mamba Forever Edition. We have a look at both boxarts above.

NBA 2K21 is slated for a September 4 release on Switch. You can pre-order the game on Amazon here, Best Buy here, or GameStop here.
