Persona 3 Reload review for Nintendo Switch 2
Posted on 3 weeks ago by Ethan in Switch, Switch 2 | 0 comments
System: Switch 2
Release date: October 23, 2025
Developer: Atlus
Publisher: Atlus
The Persona series has had something of a resurgence on Nintendo consoles in recent years. In 2022, Persona 5 Royal released on Nintendo Switch, and it was eventually followed by Persona 3 Portable and Persona 4 Golden in early 2023. Several years later, Atlus has now brought Persona 3 Reload to Nintendo Switch 2. It’s a full remake of the original Persona 3 with graphics, audio, and gameplay more in line with Persona 5. It’s also absolutely excellent – as you might expect, it’s very slightly compromised on Nintendo Switch 2, but it remains perfectly playable and a fantastic JRPG nonetheless.

It’s been a long wait for Schildmaid MX on Nintendo Switch, but the game has a release date. We have confirmation that it’s planned for November 26, 2025.
Schildmaid MX was announced for Nintendo Switch almost three years ago – we heard about it at the very start of 2023. While it was planned for that year, obviously it took much longer time to launch.

Pokemon Legends: Z-A Yveltal location guide
Posted on 3 weeks ago by Ethan in Guides, Switch, Switch 2 | 0 comments
We have a new location guide for Pokemon Legends: Z-A, this time for Yveltal, one of Kalos’ two signature Legendary Pokemon.
As you might expect, you won’t be able to catch Yveltal until you clear the game’s main story. If you’re rushing, you can reach the final boss within 20 hours or so, tacking on a few extra hours if you’re clearing side content along the way. Since Pokemon Legends: Z-A forces the player to use autosave, it is actually impossible to fail catching Yveltal. If you defeat it, it will simply respawn and ask you to try again. As a cover art Legendary Pokemon, Yveltal has a low catch rate. Expect this one to take a while!
