On the latest episode of Fragments of Silicon, Kai Tuovinen from Frozenbyte was interviewed. Tuovinen was asked about the already-released Has-Been Heroes as well as Nine Parchments.

To begin, Tuovinen indicated that Has-Been Heroes has been selling the best on Switch. Tuovinen didn’t share any specific numbers, though that was in part due to since he didn’t have any information on-hand. Switch’s small library could have played a role in the strong performance, but the fact that people were interested in the game and were giving it a shot was encouraging.

We don’t want to make any assumptions about release dates for Switch eShop games at this point, but Earth Atlantis is very likely coming out this week. Nintendo’s North American website originally listed it for last Thursday, but that didn’t end up happening.

Earth Atlantis now has a listing on the US Switch eShop with a date of October 5. Nintendo’s UK site also lists the same date. Hopefully things stick this time around.

Finally, we have the file size for Earth Atlantis. It’s a 562MB download.

The Fall Part 2: Unbound was originally scheduled for Q3 2017. But in an announcement today, developer Over The Moon announced a delay, moving the game to February 2018.

The newest entry in The Fall is actually done. However, the studio explained that “releasing it in October, November or December, among all the AAA titles, is commercial suicide.” The extra time will also be used “to further polish the game, with every platform getting a version of The Fall Part 2: Unbound that makes the most of its capabilities.”
