Rogue Heroes: Ruins of Tasos

Team17 and Heliocentric Studios shared a substantial status update on Rogue Heroes: Ruins of Tasos, the upcoming adventure roguelite.

First up, we now have a final release date. The game is confirmed to be launching digitally on February 23.

A demo is going live on the Switch eShop today ahead of release. The trial “introduces players to the mystical overworld and the first of the game’s puzzle-filled, procedurally-generated dungeons.” It supports local multiplayer for up to four players, with the full game promising online support.

Here’s some information about Rogue Heroes: Ruins of Tasos, along with a trailer:

Hitman 3

IO Interactive has confirmed that Hitman 3 – Cloud Version will be launching on Switch alongside other platforms. That means you’ll be able to begin playing on January 20.

Like last year’s Control, Hitman 3 is played entirely through the cloud on Switch. It’s all done by streaming rather than having the game run on the hardware natively.
