Switch

If there’s one area where Zelda: Breath of the Wild is lacking, you could point to underwater exploration. Simply put, this is essentially impossible in the game. Although Link can swim, he can’t dive or do much else in water.

Despite the fact that players don’t even see much of the world below the surface, it seems that the developers paid extra attention to an area that isn’t normally visible. A glitch, which starts when the scope is activated and then cancelled, allows for a view of what lies underwater.

The latest character for Fire Emblem: Three Houses has been introduced. There’s some uncertainty about his name (especially what he’ll be called in the English version), but one possibility is Yeritza. We’ll update this post if Nintendo confirms a different name for the west.

In any case, here’s Yeritza’s bio:

Dragon Marked for Death

The latest update for Dragon Marked for Death is now available. Version 2.1.1 includes a couple of system changes as well as various bug fixes, which Inti Creates has detailed.

Below are the full patch notes:

Nintendo has shared a new interview with legendary game developer Takashi Tezuka all about Super Mario Maker 2. Tezuka was asked about a few different topics, including when discussions about the sequel started, how the Koopa Troopa Car came to be, and more.

Trials of Mana

E3 2019 was a fantastic time for Mana fans. Not only was Collection of Mana finally announced for the west, but Trials of Mana was also revealed to be getting a full 3D remake.

At the show, we were treated to a behind-closed-doors gameplay demo, and also met with a few of the game’s developers: producers Shinichi Tatsuke and Masaru Oyamada as well as project assistant Kohei Kuroda. Tatsuke and Oyamada answered a number of our questions about how the Trials of Mana remake came to be, how difficult it was localizing the original game for Collection of Mana, what the future looks like for the series, and more.

IGN has published its full interview with Zelda producer Eiji Aonuma. While much of the discussion has been covered previously, we now have a couple of other interesting excerpts. Aonuma was asked about what he looks for in staffers for the Zelda team and touched on diversity, before later sharing some thoughts on a Zelda movie / TV show.

Below are those new excerpts:

Activision and Beenox have announced details of the first major update planned for Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled. If all goes as planned, the patch will be going live for Switch on July 3.

The upcoming update will add in a great deal of content, including the Nitro Tour Grand Prix, leaderboards in the Grand Prix Menu, new Pit Stop content, podium animations for online matches and more.

Here’s the full rundown of what’s to come:

With all of the news coming out of E3 2019, it’d be easy to forget about a title that was announced for Switch only a month ago. Ghostbusters: The Video Game Remastered is on the way and will launch in 2019.

Ghostbusters: The Video Game Remastered will have a physical edition. However, it’s looking like it will be retailer-exclusive. According to an entry in GameStop’s internal database, this will be the only store selling Ghostbusters for Switch at retail.

Pokemon Sword/Shield

Earlier this month, it was revealed that Pokemon Sword and Pokemon Shield will have a limit on the Pokemon that can be brought into the games from past titles. If a creature isn’t included in the Galar Pokedex, it can’t be transferred.

After the news was shared, many fans have made their disappointment known. This has now prompted Game Freak to issue an official statement. The developer’s Junichi Masuda called the move “a very difficult decision”, but says Pokemon that aren’t available in Pokemon Sword/Shield could return in future titles.

Here’s the full statement:
