Last month, PQube announced that the Switch version of Song of Memories had been cancelled. Yasuo Omote from developer Future Tech Lab attempted to explain the situation on Twitter a little while back.

Omote started out by saying that the team had a lot of trouble with licensing during development on the Switch version. He believes they could take it on themselves, but just don’t have the resources for it right now. The development costs and the associated burdens would be too much. Future Tech Lab is working on Song of Unleash as well, so Omote wondered if it’ll be okay for Switch. As he said though, they’ve had trouble with licensing.

Sword Art Online: Hollow Realization Deluxe Edition launches on Switch this spring. Bandai Namco hasn’t said too much about it yet, but we do have some news regarding what looks to be a physical release.

Amazon Germany has a listing up for Sword Art Online: Hollow Realization Deluxe Edition, complete with the game’s boxart. That would indicate that retailers will be selling a physical version in Europe. Things are less certain in North America, but we did check Bandai Namco’s press site which has the same boxart (pictured above) with an ESRB logo.

Amazon Germany lists a tentative June 30 release date for Sword Art Online: Hollow Realization Deluxe Edition, so there’s still no word on when it will be out in the west. The Japanese launch is set for April 25.
