Crash Bandicoot 4: It's About Time

Crash Bandicoot 4: It’s About Time appears to be more than just a simple port on Switch. Twitter user Kanozu_ put together a few comparison screenshots with the PlayStation 4 version, which show that the team did more than merely decrease the resolution.

Based on what we’ve seen from the Switch version, it looks like the models and assets have been reworked. The game now employs a slightly more cel-shaded appearance on Nintendo’s console.

Here’s the full set of comparisons:

Immortals Fenyx Rising

As part of its quarterly financial report today, Ubisoft revealed that the company is the top third-party publisher on Switch. Nintendo’s console has contributed to its bottom line.

Back in January, Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night received its latest update, which was highlighted by the addition of Classic Mode. Interestingly, a second hidden mode was included as well.

1986 Mode can be unlocked on the Classic Mode title screen. It can be accessed after inputting the Konami Code (Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, [Horizontal Left Face Button]), [Horizontal Right Face Button]). After this, “1986 Mode” should appear on the bottom of the screen.

1986 Mode is a different take on Classic Mode. It includes several changes referencing the original Castlevania, including:

Crash Bandicoot 4: It's About Time

After much speculation, Activision has finally announced that Crash Bandicoot 4: It’s About Time is coming to Switch. It will launch on March 12.

Crash Bandicoot 4: It’s About Time first launched last October. Despite Activision not announcing a Switch version, it was listed for Nintendo’s console in the official website’s source code. Then shortly after release, fans spotted what appeared to be an internal profile for Switch in the game’s data.

Here’s an overview of Crash Bandicoot 4: It’s About Time as well as the announcement trailer:

Little Nightmares II

Ahead of this week’s release, Little Nightmares II has received a new launch trailer. Have a look at today’s video below.

Little Nightmares II will be available for Switch on February 11. Be sure to check out our review here.

Little Nightmares II

System: Switch
Release date: February 11, 2021
Developer: Tarsier Studios
Publisher: Bandai Namco


Little Nightmares quickly became a much beloved hit among fans of horror and side-scrolling adventure gameplay, beautifully melding this sense of intense atmosphere with some of the most innovative and unique environmental designs the medium has seen. It had everything it needed to be, well, nightmare fuel, and capitalized on that artistically. Its big draw-back, however, was simply how short it was. Thankfully, Tarsier Studios went on to develop DLC in a perfectly priced package that expanded the game up to three additional hours, putting us in the shoes of The Runaway Kid as they too tried to escape from The Maw. Now with the release of Little Nightmares II, feedback was taken to heart and Tarsier Studios has made a bigger and better adventure, emphasizing more so the nightmare portion of its name with a stellar experience that gives everything I wanted the first time around, and goes even further with its disturbing themes and atmosphere that, with excellent sound design, brings together a must-play horror package.

R-Type Final 2

NIS America and Granzella have issued a new gameplay trailer for R-Type Final 2. Get a look at the video below.

R-Type Final 2 is planned for April 29 in Japan. It will follow one day later, April 30, in North America and Europe.
