Switch eShop

Exorder

Exorder was originally supposed to land on the eShop last month. That didn’t happen in the end, though Fat Dog Games and Solid9 Studio have now determined a final release date of October 16.

Exorder is a fantasy turn-based tactical RPG. Find more details about the game below plus a trailer.

Shadowgate

Abstraction Games has announced that it is revitalizing the classic point-and-click adventure game Shadowgate. As part of a partnership with original developer Zojoi, it’ll be releasing on Switch this fall.

Shadowgate on Switch will contain “a refined user interface and intuitive wheel-based icon command system.” There’s new content as well thanks to “tons of new mind-bending puzzles, lots of new rooms with stunning hand-painted 2D graphical detail, and more objects to interact with and help players along on their quest.”

Kairsoft has announced a trio of titles coming to Switch in Japan next week. Game Dev Story, Hot Springs Story, Dungeon Village are all slated for October 11.

We have the following overviews and trailers for all three games:

Later this week, Timberman VS is getting a notable update. Forever Entertainment has announced that online multiplayer will be added when the patch goes live on Friday.

Specifics about how online play haven’t been shared, but the game is about slicing and dicing trees while challenging friends to be the fastest timberman alive.

Timberman VS is currently available via the Switch eShop.

Splash Blast Panic

Splash Blast Panic is coming to the Switch eShop this Thursday. For a look at some gameplay footage, watch the video below.

Fortnite teased an upcoming game mode in its news feed that makes emotes more important than ever. Polygon provides more detail:

It seems like the new mode will be all about dancing, or emoting, and require players to spend as much time using emotes in a certain area as possible, according to the description. While dancing may be the focus, it’s unlikely that this means guns will be gone from the mode completely, which means you’ll have to make sure you’re dancing safely.

Fortnite didn’t include a release date, but Season 6’s first content update arrives this week so we probably won’t have to wait long.

Jackbox Games is starting to promote the titles in The Jackbox Party Pack 5 ahead of its release later this month. Find videos for You Don’t Know Jack: Full Stream and Split the Room below.
