The next big Splatoon 2 update has arrived. Following today’s earlier announcement, Nintendo has launched version 3.2.0 for all players.

Today’s update adds support for the new Pearl and Marina amiibo. There are also a ton of changes for weapons, Octo Expansion, and more.

Rounding out tonight’s wave of Japanese adverts is a commercial for Pokemon: Let’s Go, Pikachu / Eevee. You can watch it below.

Two new Japanese commercials have just come in. Below, we have an advert showing off some games for the summer plus one that highlights the new Nintendo Labo functionality in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe.

Hello everyone! Octopath Traveler recently delivered a fantastic demo. I put more than eight hours into it but I can’t help but wonder: is it behind the eight ball when compared to Final Fantasy VI? Well in some ways, yes, but that might just be what makes this a great game.

Earlier today, Panic Button held a lengthy Reddit AMA. The studio discussed its Switch ports, working with the system, porting process, its relationship with Nintendo, future project, and a whole lot more.

Here’s a summary of the notable points: 

Octopath Traveler

Square Enix has one more commercial up for Octopath Traveler with the game releasing this week. Check out the advert below.

Just as we mentioned a short while ago, Galak-Z: Variant S was unexpectedly added to the Switch eShop today. Have a look at some footage below.

The latest update for Ys VIII on Switch is now available. NIS America just started distribution of version 1.0.4.

With the new patch, there should be support for Japanese voices. NIS America also implemented aesthetic refinements during cut-scenes.

Back in April, we discovered a PEGI rating for Guts and Glory on Switch. A listing on the North American eShop confirms that a release is happening next week.

The store page lists Guts and Glory for July 19. It’ll cost $14.99.

Galak-Z: Variant S

Galak-Z: Variant S was originally planned for June 28 on Switch. GungHo Online Entertainment missed that date, but not by much. Galak-Z: Variant S is actually out right now on the eShop.

Originally, the game was going to cost $9.99 on Switch. Something apparently changed along the way, as it’s free to download.
