Nintendo has another round of maintenance planned for the coming week. Starting today, there will be activity impacting Switch, leading into the next few days.

The second installment of the long-running Devil May Cry series makes its way to Switch in high-definition following Capcom’s port of the first entry earlier this year and sees Dante return to eradicate demons on the land. Devil May Cry 2 has always been the controversial black sheep of the series because of how drastically different it was before becoming more true-to-form in its highly-praised sequel, Devil May Cry 3. While a lot of fans don’t particularly look back fondly on the second installment, it’s worth mentioning that despite its flaws it is still an important part to the overall legacy of Dante and what Devil May Cry as a whole would ultimately become today. Devil May Cry 2’s impact is so fascinating to me because despite how it may be critically, everything surrounding its development and what ended up on our TVs back in 2003 paved a way for a series that was still evolving, and it was a learning experience that took sacrifices and risks – for better or for worse.

Divinity: Original Sin 2 – Definitive Edition made it to Switch last month. Larian Studios ended up releasing the during the last Nintendo Direct, which definitely came as a surprise.

Larian Studios founder and CEO Swen Vincke spoke with the IGN Nintendo Voice Chat podcast crew about bringing it to Switch, calling it an “experiment” since there was no guarantee it would be technically possible. For awhile, they weren’t even certain that it would release. BlitWorks handled the port, and the team started working on it around last year.

Minecraft Dungeons

Mojang has shared the opening cinematic for Minecraft Dungeons, an action-adventure game for Switch inspired by classic dungeon crawlers. Watch it below.

If you watched the latest Nindies Showcase from earlier in the year, you may have heard about a little game called Neo Cab. The “emotional survival game about staying human in a world disrupted by automation” will be coming to Switch in just a few days – October 3.
