Nintendo added Piranha Plant to Super Smash Bros. Ultimate tonight. It’s not just a new playable character, as it can also be used across various game modes. However, you may want to hold off on playing as Piranha Plant in one specific mode.

We’re hearing that save data may become corrupt after going through All-Star Mode with the latest roster addition. It’s currently unclear why this is happening, but multiple player reports are out there. Nintendo will likely be preparing a fix very soon, so it’d be best to hold off until a patch is made available.

Mortal Kombat 11

Mortal Kombat 11 launches on April 23. If you’re in Europe, however, that might be a different story.

There’s been a lot of speculation surrounding Mortal Kombat 11’s Switch launch in Europe. We’ve been trying to hold off on posting about it until Warner Bros. comments on the situation, but thus far, they haven’t done so. In the meantime, a number of retailers have come forward listing a May 10 release date – including the Nintendo UK store. The Switch version of Mortal Kombat 11 is still on track for April 23 in the states, though for whatever reason, that doesn’t appear to be the case for PAL regions.

Pre-orders are open for Mortal Kombat 11 on the Nintendo UK store here. Bundles with Pixel Pals Lamps are also available.
