Last week, Milestone announced MotoGP 20 for Nintendo Switch. Today, a listing for the physical version of the game popped up at an Australian games shop – and it appears that the physical version won’t actually include a cartridge, but instead it’ll just be a download code for the digital version in the box. MotoGP 20 isn’t the first game to do this, as several third-party games on the system chose this option for their physical release.

This April, PlatinumGames is opening a new development hub in Tokyo. Here’s an excerpt from their website explaining about the decision:

Building Development Power through our Capital Alliance

In December 2019, PlatinumGames entered into a capital alliance with Tencent Holdings. This allowed us to start work on Project G.G., our first entirely original IP, in earnest. It also contributed to our decision to establish PlatinumGames Tokyo – a pillar of our new commitment to building our power as a developer. Between our Osaka office and PlatinumGames Tokyo, we’re poised to make use of the sharpest creative minds in games in both west and east Japan, and expand to even greater possibilities.

You can read the full press release here.
