Civilization VI

Civilization VI will feature up to four-player multiplayer on Switch over local wireless. It will not, however, include online support. The functionality was included in the PC version, but will be missing on Switch for an unspecified reason.

Eurogamer reached out to 2K, and the company confirmed that Civilization VI will not be included on Switch. It also seems that there are no plans to add it in later.

Jake Hunter Detective Story: Prism of Eyes

Jake Hunter Detective Story: Prism of Eyes is only available in Japan at present. But could a western release be in the cards as well? A new rating from Korea certainly leaves the door open to the possibility.

The Game Rating and Administration Committee of Korea has rated Jake Hunter Detective Story: Prism of Eyes for Switch (and PlayStation 4) under its English name. Since the listing doesn’t use the Japanese franchise name Tantei Saburou Jinguuji, it suggests that the game will be released outside of Japan. As we know, Aksys Games changes Saburou Jinguuji’s name to Jake Hunter.

If we hear anything else surrounding a possible release for Jake Hunter Detective Story: Prism of Eyes, we’ll be sure to let you know.

Ahead of its Switch release on December 20, Square Enix is hosting the Dragon Quest Builders 2: Builders School Multiplayer Party event on November 14, which will be available to view on YouTube. The video will run from 8 am to 10:30 pm EST.

Right after we received a trailer and bunch of screenshots for World of Final Fantasy Maxima, we have a lot of new info courtesy of a translation by Gematsu. Here’s what we’ve learned:

  • New Champion Characters

Zack from Final Fantasy VII (voiced by Kenichi Suzumura)

Zack is a man resurrected from death. Sometimes his memory gets confused and out of control, but when he is sane, he seems more like himself.
 
Serah from Final Fantasy XIII-2 (voiced by Minako Kotobuki)
Serah is Snow’s fiancee, but she seems to be suddenly swayed by Zack upon their meeting each other…
 
Cecil from Final Fantasy IV (voiced by Shizuma Hodoshima)
He ends up in Figaro while searching for the almighty flower known as the “Moonlight Beauty” in order to save “someone important” that has fallen to disease.
  • New Mirages
Yojimbo (Size: L)
Its “Zanmato Iaigiri” attack deals physical damage to all enemies. Sometimes, it may even result in the enemy’s instant death. With its speedy slash also comes an Extra High topple strength.
 
Daigoro (Size: S)
Its “Bite” attack deals physical damage to a single enemy. Its topple strength is medium.
 
Gamut (Size: M)
Its “Kozuka” attack strikes enemies randomly three times in a row to deal physical damage. Its topple strength is high.
 
Lich (Size: L)
Its “Death Cutter” attack deals physical damage to a single enemy, as well as inflicts the “Doom” status ailment. Its topple strength is medium.
 
Devil Wolf (Size: M)
Its “Curse” attack inflicts a single enemy with various status ailments, as well as lowers its stats.
 
Ponini (Size: S)
Its “Kick” attack deals physical damage to a single enemy. Its topple strength is medium.
  • New Features:
Avatar Change
New Mirages and Additional Boss
Fishing Minigame

A lot of new material from World of Final Fantasy Maxima has been revealed, including a 5-minute video and over 40 screenshots that show many different aspects of the game. You can view both below.

The Japanese and Korean Nintendo eShops confirm that the upcoming Pokémon Let’s Go games will not support the Switch Pro Controller. This shouldn’t be a huge surprise given the Poké Ball throwing mechanic (and the lack of a Pokemon themed Pro Controller), but is sure to be sad news to many who were still hopeful.
