Switch

The first E3 press conference of 2018 will be kicking off not too long from now. EA will be up first with its EA Play 2018 event at 11 AM PT / 2 PM ET / 7 PM in the UK / 8 PM in Europe.

If we’re being perfectly honest, we don’t expect a whole lot of Switch news here. FIFA 19 will almost certainly be shown, but that may very well be it.

Regardless, you can watch the conference as it happens below. If any Switch announcements are made, we’ll have the news right on the site.

The Nintendo UK store has opened pre-orders for the new, physical version of Minecraft. You can reserve it here.

Warriors Orochi 4

Koei Tecmo just wrapped up a live stream where it had a lot to show for Warriors Orochi 4.

In Japan, the game has been given a release date. It’s slated for September 27 with the typical Premium Box and Treasure Box. A digital Deluxe Edition will also be available with a season pass, new weapons, and an early unlock of Tamamo.

E3 Coliseum will be featuring a pair of notable Nintendo-related panels next week.

First up, Mario + Rabbids creative director Davide Soliani, lead producer Xavier Manzanares, and composer Grant Kirkhope will be stopping by for a session on Tuesday. The plan is to delve into the “exploration of the music behind this acclaimed game.”

By participating in last week’s Mario Tennis Aces Pre-launch Online Tournament demo, you can receive a bonus in the full game. Players will be able to unlock a special outfit so long as the proper data exists on their system.

If you missed out on the demo, you’ll be happy to hear that the outfit will be offered to everyone at a later date. Nintendo intends to have it available with a software update.
