There may not have been an E3 this summer, but it sure as heck felt like it! Between Summer Games Fest, the Xbox and PlayStation showcases, the Wholesome Direct, Future Games Show, and even more presentations than we can list here, there have been hundreds of games announced or shown off in the past few weeks. Fortunately, we were able to visit LA last week to get hand-on with a wide range of exciting Switch-bound games, including Sonic Superstars, Oxenfree II, Mortal Kombat 1 and much, much more! In this week’s episode of Nintendo Everything Refresh, join your hosts Nick Serpa and Tom Chaplin as they talk about all the games big and small that Nick got to demo at Summer Games Fest. Then, stick around for some other freshly announced Indies you should keep on your radar, several irrelevant tangential conversations (our favorite), and more!

Hyper Gunsport physical

Today, Limited Run Games announced a physical version for Hyper Gunsport on Switch. The company is teaming up with Hitcents and Necrosoft Games.

This is one of Limited Run Games’ releases that only has a standard version. There are no current plans for a special edition.

Ghost Trick Phantom Detective sequel

Could Capcom make a sequel to Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective one day? Shu Takumi, the game’s creator (who’s also behind the Ace Attorney series), isn’t committed to the idea, but isn’t ruling out the possibility either.

Game Informer recently asked Takumi straight up about sequel chances. He responded by saying “it would be difficult” given how the story is told in one complete game, but “the powers of the dead that this game introduces may hold some possibility.”

Mortal Kombat 1 is perhaps the most jaw-dropping fighting game I’ve ever had the privilege of playing. And not just in a figurative sense, because there’s literally an X-Ray attack in which Sub-Zero skewers his opponent’s brain through their mouth with a shard of ice, rendered in a shocking amount of detail. Between the new Kameo mechanic, an increased focus on aerial play, and some of the most stunning visuals I’ve ever seen in a fighting game, this is a game that feels next-gen from edge to edge. That’s a polite way of saying: I have no idea how they are going to get this running on Switch.

Barony

Today, Turning Wheel announced that it’s bringing Barony to Switch. It will be available on August 1, 2023.

Barony is a first-person action roguelike Barony. When it launches on Switch, it’ll support cross-platform multiplayer with Steam and Epic Games Store on Windows, Mac, and Linux.

Ultimate Chicken Horse update 1.10.06

Clever Endeavour Games isn’t done with Ultimate Chicken Horse, as the studio just issued a new version 1.10.06 update for the game.

Several server issues have been addressed stemming from the Shellebration Update. The team also changed how voting works on community-made custom levels and added a new song to the soundtrack. Some other small changes are also included.

The full patch notes for the Ultimate Chicken Horse version 1.10.06 update are as follows:

Everdream Valley release date

Original (5/22): Everdream Valley is one step closer to its release date on Switch with Mooneaters, Untold Tales and Varsav Game Studios confirming that this version will launch in June. More specific timing will follow soon.

We previously reported on Everdream Valley, an adventure RPG sim, at the beginning of the year. More information about it can be found below. 

Sonic Superstars physics

Sonic Superstars fans will be happy to hear that SEGA has brought over the physics from Sonic Mania and translated them into modern 3D.

That news comes from Christian Whitehead, the director of Sonic Mania. He was responding to a tweet comparing the physics from that release and the upcoming Sonic Superstars.

Here’s the tweet in question:
