Support for Shovel Knight Dig is wrapping up with the game set to receive its final major update known as “Wicked Wishes”, and we now have a release date. It’s scheduled for May 15, 2025 on Nintendo Switch.

Wicked Wishes brings along its own bosses, quests, secrets, and more. The team also rebalanced the algorithm while implementing over over 100 bug fixes, tweaks, and localization improvements.

Here’s a bit of additional information:

Nintendo Switch 2 quieter HD Rumble

One of the more overlooked pieces of information we’ve received about Nintendo Switch 2 relates to the HD Rumble functionality on the new Joy-Con 2, which will be quieter compared to the previous version controllers. 

Information about this was quietly included on the official website since the system’s reveal earlier in the month. It’s actually tucked away in a note about Everybody 1-2 Switch. It turns out that there’ll be a slight compatibility issue with that title due to the quieter HD Rumble on the new Joy-Con with a specific mini-game.

A note on the page states:


Battle Train will be making its way to Nintendo Switch on June 18th, 2025.

Battle Train is a roguelite deck-n-track builder that has players taking the role of contestants on a game show. They use cards to build up their bases and attack enemy structures, all through the connection of trains and tracks. The game is co-developed by Terrible Posture Games and Nerd Ninjas LLC, with Bandai Namco Entertainment publishing it.

Cattle Country was one of the last Nintendo Switch announcements we received last year. The most recent launch window given was early 2025, but the game needed a bit more time to wrap up development.
