WWE 2K18

Since the week that WWE 2K18 was announced for Switch, 2K has only committed to a general “Fall 2017” release. However, some had hoped that it would be out later this month alongside other platforms. This was somewhat due to marketing materials that surfaced at stores over the past few days pointing to the Switch edition possible landing on October 17.

For its part, the “Fall 2017” release window still sticks. 2K is not giving a more specific launch timing beyond that.

The official WWE gaming Twitter account reconfirms:

Super Mario Odyssey makes a major change to a core gameplay element of the series. Lives are now completely gone. When you die in Super Mario Odyssey, you lose coins instead.

This ties in with another element of Super Mario Odyssey. Players can use coins to purchase all sorts of outfits and hats, including a wetsuit, Mario’s look in Mario Maker, and even a golfer’s uniform resembling what he wore in NES Open Tournament Golf.

On the latest episode of Fragments of Silicon, Kai Tuovinen from Frozenbyte was interviewed. Tuovinen was asked about the already-released Has-Been Heroes as well as Nine Parchments.

To begin, Tuovinen indicated that Has-Been Heroes has been selling the best on Switch. Tuovinen didn’t share any specific numbers, though that was in part due to since he didn’t have any information on-hand. Switch’s small library could have played a role in the strong performance, but the fact that people were interested in the game and were giving it a shot was encouraging.

We don’t want to make any assumptions about release dates for Switch eShop games at this point, but Earth Atlantis is very likely coming out this week. Nintendo’s North American website originally listed it for last Thursday, but that didn’t end up happening.

Earth Atlantis now has a listing on the US Switch eShop with a date of October 5. Nintendo’s UK site also lists the same date. Hopefully things stick this time around.

Finally, we have the file size for Earth Atlantis. It’s a 562MB download.
