Two more key installments in the Hasbro series of board games — Risk and Trivial Pursuit Live! — are making their way to the Nintendo Switch on October 30, according to Ubisoft. 

With new and exclusive features added to both classic tabletop games, the titles will be available individually through the Switch eShop, or part of the just-announced Hasbro Game Night bundle that will also include the previously released Monopoly for Nintendo Switch. This package will release simultaneously with the digital copies of Risk and Trivial Pursuit Live!.

Ubisoft has released an official statement on the news, as well as a batch of screenshots. Be sure to check out all of the materials below.

A splash of rogue-lite elements mixed with 2D beat-em-up gameplay is set to land on Switch in 2019, as developer Dark Blue Games has confirmed that Infected Shelter is in development for the hybrid console.

Touted as a type of fusion between massively popular titles Dead Cells and Castle Crashers, this new co-op multiplayer will have users working to survive a post-apocalyptic setting filled to the brim with randomly generated enemies, loot, and opportunities for character improvement. 

A new trailer for the game has been shared that can be viewed below.

Players can look forward to new content, including 20 levels – some of which are “super silly” and a few others that are “super hard”. Also in the works is a color blind mode, New Game+, rotatable camera, and new icon.

We’ll give you a heads up when the update goes live.

Nefarious

Nefarious was originally intended for release on Switch last Thursday. However, the game ended up experiencing a last-minute delay.

Switch will now be getting Nefarious on October 4. Digerati says that it has been pushed back because of “a gameplay issue experienced by a small number of players who received copies of the game ahead of release.” Although Nefarious went through “a rigorous QA process”, Digerati didn’t “want to take any chances.”

Those who pre-loaded Digerati should have been able to receive the full game last week. Everyone else will need to wait a few more weeks.
