Hollow Knight Silksong update 2

Team Cherry has announced a second update for Hollow Knight: Silksong. It’s not available on Nintendo Switch 2 and Switch yet, but it should be soon.

Unlike the last patch which included gameplay adjustments – notably for bosses – there’s none of that to speak of here. This time around, Team Cherry is mostly focusing on bug fixes.

The full rundown is as follows:

Raidou Remastered 1.10 update

Atlus has announced a new version 1.10 update for Raidou Remastered: The Mystery of the Soulless Army.

The patch includes “various improvements aimed at enhancing the gameplay experience and overall comfort”. On top of that, game balance for certain bosses have been adjusted following player feedback.

Here’s the full rundown:

Star Wars Outlaws review

System: Switch 2
Release date: September 4, 2025
Developer: Massive Entertainment
Publisher: Ubisoft

Star Wars Outlaws may not have met Ubisoft’s sales expectations when it first released on other platforms last year, but for many fans of the franchise, it’s a dream game all the same. There are plenty of titles based on the IP where you can play as a lightsaber-wielding hero, but Outlaws pursues a different goal: making the player feel like a bounty hunter in a seedy, unsafe part of the Galaxy where trust comes at a premium and everyone wants to kill you. It’s also a very ambitious game for a device like Switch 2, so I was excited to see how the game would play on Nintendo’s new console after a year’s worth of updates and new content.

Super Mario Galaxy + Super Mario Galaxy 2 mouse controls

Another tidbit has surfaced about Super Mario Galaxy + Super Mario Galaxy 2, revealing that mouse controls will be supported on Nintendo Switch 2. This comes from Nintendo’s Japanese website.

Nintendo hasn’t fully detailed how mouse controls work, but we know that they’ll be enabled following a free update. Similar to other games, the feature can be used with the Joy-Con 2. This same update will enable 4K support when playing on Nintendo Switch 2. 

Annapurna Interactive and Light Brick Studio put out a launch trailer for LEGO Voyagers Journey. The game, a co-op adventure title, comes from the same team as LEGO Builder’s Journey.

Here’s an overview of the game:

Donkey Kong Bananza DK Island Emerald Rush Review

System: Switch 2
Release date: September 12, 2025
Developer: Nintendo
Publisher: Nintendo

All things considered, it seems safe to say that fans don’t appreciate Nintendo’s price antics lately. The recent Nintendo Direct confirmed the most expensive amiibo of all time, a $70 Super Mario Galaxy collection, and now a $20 Donkey Kong Bananza DLC two months after launch. That’s not inherently a problem – Bananza was in development for quite some time, given that it started out as a Switch 1 game. That said, the Nintendo Direct doesn’t do a very good job of telling you what the DLC actually is. From the previews, you would think DK Island is Donkey Kong Bananza’s version of the Mushroom Kingdom. And in many ways, it is – but it doesn’t have any Banandium Gems or fossils, nor any collectibles other than new outfits tied to the titular Emerald Rush mode. In other words, DK Island is essentially a big, pretty set piece – it’s nice to look at and fun to explore for a few minutes, but there’s not really anything of substance within.

In terms of Nintendo Switch 2 (and Switch) games, there’s nothing too exciting happening this time around. However, both Mario Kart World and Donkey Kong Bananza are in the top three. Mario Kart World fell one spot, but Donkey Kong Bananza actually moved up a couple of positions.
