Switch eShop

Publishers Phoenixx and Gotcha Gotcha Games and developer Hikotel have announced that Kokoro Clover Season 1 will be making its way to the Switch eShop in Japan. The game is set to land on the system next week, on August 4, and will also feature full English language support.

Kokoro Clover is a 2D platformer heavily inspired by Sunday morning Japanese anime shows. The game’s story is structured like said shows, taking place over 12 “episodes” that have you take the role of Spirit Summoner Treffy, a young girl who accidentally finds the magical Kokoro Clover and attempts to uncover its secrets. Beyond the story mode, the game also possesses an adventure mode, boss rush mode, and mini-game modes, along with a slew of unlockables to obtain as you play through the game.

Starting next week, online multiplayer functionality will no longer be accessible in the Switch version of Catan.

The situation is unfortunately a bit out of Asmodee Digital’s control. The sole reason why the feature is going away comes down to GameSparks having its servers shut down. Catan’s online is based around GameSparks, which is an external service provided by Amazon.

Toy Soldiers HD delayed 2022

We’ve previously gone over the many delays Toy Soldiers HD has experienced since the game was first made known a couple of years ago. Initially, it was on track to launch in Spring 2020, but was delayed to 2021. Then when it was planned for last August, the game was moved back to September 9. After being given a new September 30 date, Accelerate Games delayed the Switch version indefinitely.

Toy Soldiers HD received a new August release date on Switch earlier this month and we were hoping that would be the end of the delays. Unfortunately though, it’s been pushed back once again.

Accelerate Games said in a statement:
