The Nifl vs. Múspell Voting Gauntlet has ended in Fire Emblem Heroes. Fjorm was victorious in the final round, beating out Ylgr. Make sure to access the Voting Gauntlet on the Events screen to claim your rewards.

Normally, the next season of Aether Raids would’ve started by now. However, it’s being delayed until version 3.0.0 of the game drops, which will be tomorrow. This is because a feature will be implemented in version 3.0.0 that will allow players to get extra Lift.

It’s time for the latest Famitsu’s most wanted games chart. In what could be its final week, Smash Bros. Ultimate remains #1 for the second week in a row.

Head past the break for the full chart. All votes were cast between November 21 and November 28.

Gunman Clive HD Collection

Gunman Clive HD Collection is coming to Switch, creator Bertil Hörberg has confirmed. Hörberg said on Twitter this week that he implemented the “final fixes” and submitted the game to Nintendo. A release date has not yet been announced.

Hörberg suggested earlier this year that Gunman Clive HD Collection would be on Switch. Back in April, he mentioned that he’d been sitting on a “near complete port” since before the system’s launch.

The Gunman Clive games have previously appeared on both 3DS and Wii U.

Revenge of the Bird King

Limited Run Games is generally known for offering physical releases of Switch games, but they do publish a few digital titles from time to time. The latest example of this is Revenge of the Bird King.

On December 27, Revenge of the Bird King will be joining the Switch eShop. Continue on below for a brief overview plus footage.

Gear.Club Unlimited 2

Microids and Eden Games came out with Gear.Club Unlimited in 2017. Essentially one year later, the two sides have returned once again with a sequel. Unlike its predecessor, Gear.Club Unlimited 2 was made from the ground up for Nintendo’s console and as an exclusive – it has no mobile ties unlike last year’s release.

Shortly before Gear.Club Unlimited 2’s launch, we caught up with lead designer Yannick Berthier. Berthier spoke with us about why the team made its new racer exclusively for Switch and the benefits that allowed for. You can read our full interview below.
