Retailers have added in listings for Yooka-Laylee and the Impossible Lair, the next platformer from Playtonic. These pages also have the boxart included, which we’ve attached above.

Yooka-Laylee and the Impossible Lair is up for pre-order on Amazon here. GameStop also has the title available here.

Modus Games has posted a gameplay walkthrough for Trine 4’s E3 2019 demo with Frozenbyte that offers a closer look at the title. Check out the video below.

All sorts of developers have stepped in over the past couple of years to port games to Switch. One such company is Engine Software. The team has helped bring several titles to Nintendo’s console, including The Caligula Effect: Overdose, Into the Breach, and Little Nightmares.

Next up from Engine Software is Ni no Kuni. It’s been confirmed that the studio is specifically behind that version of the game. On its website, Engine Software states that it is “proud to announce we are working with Bandai-Namco and Level-5 to bring their classic tale: Ni no Kuni – Wrath of the White Witch to the Nintendo Switch.”

Ni no Kuni will be available for Switch on September 20.

Nintendo has provided some character art for Dr. Mario World showing the familiar group of characters Mario fans have come to know. Check out the full set below.

Dr. Mario World launches on iOS and Android on July 10.

Nintendo is back with another “Virus Vid” for Dr. Mario World. Have a look at the short clip promoting the new mobile game below.

Oninaki will be a digital-only game in North America and Europe. In Japan, however, it’s a different story.

Square Enix will in fact be offering a physical version for Japanese fans. Thankfully, we now have confirmation that English will be supported. Fans can import a Japanese copy and play through the RPG much like they would with the digital version.

Play-Asia is currently taking pre-orders for the physical version of Oninaki. If interested, you can secure a copy here. Also, if you’re a fan of the game’s music, you can pick up the soundtrack here.

Almost every 2019 game featured in the E3 Nintendo Direct was given a release date. However, there was one notable exception: Luigi’s Mansion 3. Some fans might be wondering why we haven’t found out when it’s coming out yet.

Speaking with Polygon, Nintendo’s Bill Trinen said that Next Level Games is “putting a lot of care into the game. We want to let them put the care into it they want, so we’re waiting on them to let us know and we’ll solidify the release date.”

Having Luigi’s Mansion 3 ready for Halloween would certainly make a lot of sense. We’ll have to want and see if the next ends up meeting that release window.

Risk of Rain 2 may have a chance of coming to Switch. Earlier this week, the game was rated by the USK – Germany’s classification board. Ratings don’t always guarantee upcoming releases, but this could be a sign that Hopoo Games and Gearbox Publishing are considering Risk of Rain 2 for Nintendo’s platform.

Here’s an overview of Risk of Rain 2 plus a trailer:
