Not much is known about Blue Reflection Tie, but if the original 2017 game is anything to go by, it will again offer RPG gameplay. There’s no word on any sort of release window at this time.

Kingdoms of Amalur: Re-Reckoning

System: Switch
Release date: March 16, 2021
Developer: 38 Studios / Big Huge Games / Kaiko
Publisher: THQ Nordic


Some games are like fine wine and age better with time whether through sheer nostalgia, groundbreaking ideas, or art direction while others are lost in the wind or just manage to barely stay alive through a small but dedicated fanbase. Despite originally being published by EA, Kingdoms of Amalur leans more towards the latter of having that cult following. While there are many reasons for this, the game was well-received at the time, though it wasn’t exactly brought up in conversation when discussing popular western or medieval RPGs. But now thanks to THQ Nordic, Kingdoms of Amalur gets another shot in modern times with a remaster that’s worthy of a second chance, even if it is visually untouched outside of polish – at least on Switch.

The House in Fata Morgana: Dreams of the Revenants Edition

The western version of The House in Fata Morgana on Switch is almost here. According to an eShop listing, it will be out on April 9. Limited Run Games is handling publishing.

Speaking of Limited Run Games, the company is also involved with a physical release planned for a later date. We have more information about that here.
