Digital Foundry has a very look at Dark Souls: Remastered on Switch based on the brief snippets of footage shown during last week’s Nintendo Direct. The game is still a couple of months out and changes could be made, but the analysis is rather interesting.

Digital Foundry reconfirms what Bandai Namco and FromSoftware have said previously. Dark Souls: Remastered will indeed run at 1080p docked (and 720p in portable mode). On the whole it’s a 2.8x increase over the last-gen versions of the game.

The British Academy Games Awards – otherwise known as BAFTA – announced its nominees for its 2018 Game Awards today. Zelda: Breath of the Wild is included in five different categories while Super Mario Odyssey is in three. Both are nominated for “Best Game”.

For the “Family” category, almost all of the nominees are on Switch. They include Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle and Snipperclips, the latter of which is also up for “Game Innovation”.


SEGA has narrowed down the release window for Valkyria Chronicles 4 in the west slightly. Though we previously knew it was planned for this year, we can now say it’s coming this fall. That applies to both North America and Europe.

Retailers have started listing Valkyria Chronicles 4 for October 16. However, we don’t believe there’s much merit as that’s just a placeholder data.

You can access Valkyria Chronicles 4’s new English website here.
