The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening

Nintendo has issued a pair of Japanese commercials for Zelda: Link’s Awakening. View both adverts below.

As part of the latest Nintendo Direct, Overwatch was announced for Switch. We know that the game will be sold at retail, but you won’t actually be getting a physical cartridge. Instead, it includes a download code.

Things will be a bit different in Japan. That region will also be receiving Overwatch in October, though a physical version is confirmed to follow later on. Fans can look forward to a cartridge release here, but a specific release date hasn’t been provided.

Under Night In-Birth Exe:Late[cl-r] was one of a few announcements made at Evo 2019. No platforms were confirmed at the time, but a Switch version seemed likely due to a rating that was previously unconfirmed.

Today, Arc System Works made it official. Under Night In-Birth Exe:Late[cl-r] will launch on Switch in 2020.

After it originally appeared on Wii a decade ago, Xenoblade Chronicles will return on Switch next year. See how the two versions stack up in the video below.

Pokemon developer today announced a special streaming taking place next month. Game Freak 30th Anniversary Celebration Steam will go live on October 16, the company has confirmed.
