Milestone is taking another crack at racing games on Switch. Announced today, MotoGP 18 will be available on Nintendo’s console “shortly after” the initial June 7 launch.

MotoGP 18 will include all content from the 2018 MotoGP season as well as improved features. With the game now built in Unreal Engine, visual effects have been improved and physics have been reworked.

Max: The Curse of Brotherhood was added to the Switch eShop a few months ago. Wired Productions has also prepared a physical version, which was originally slated for last week. It experienced a delay though, and is now on track for April 24.

Here’s more on Max: The Curse of Brotherhood for those who haven’t heard of the game previously:

Just one day before launch, NIS America has cancelled the release of the standard edition of Penny-Punching Princess in the UK. The publisher says that they discovered that “the orders for this title would not be able to be fulfilled by their proper release date” and thus they decided to cancel the game’s physical release in the UK entirely.

If you live in the UK, your only option for a physical copy of the game is the Limited Edition, which is available exclusively on the NIS America online store. Otherwise, you will have to buy the game digitally. Note that all of this only applies to the UK – the physical release of the game in other regions has not been affected.

Head past the break to read NIS America’s statement on the matter in full:

Penny-Punching Princess lands on Switch in just a few days. For a look at the title, check out our gameplay video below.
