2K Sports and Visual Concepts have wrapped up another big patch notes. It hasn’t been deployed on Switch just yet, but it should be arriving very soon.

We’ll let you know when the update is live. For now, read the full patch notes below.

PM Studios and Acttil have set a new, final release date for Superbeat: Xonic on Switch.

In North America, the title will be out physically and digitally on November 21. The European release is set for November 30 on the eShop and December 8 physically.

Ubisoft hasn’t said much about the Switch version of Steep since it was announced for the console back in January. Even with the silence, we apparently shouldn’t be too concerned, as it’s said to still be happening.

Nerd Report interviewed Steep director Arnaud Ragot in preparation of a new expansion releasing on other platforms soon. The publication also managed to ask a question about the Switch edition. Ragot said that it’s “still planned, still something we have in our mind.” The current focus is that expansion, though.


IGN France reported in June that Ubisoft was having some trouble getting Steep to run properly on Switch. But development was apparently ongoing at the time, and Nintendo was even lending its assistance.

In celebration of Sonic Forces’ launch next month, SEGA has created a new Sonic the Hedgehog digital comic series based on the game. The story is from Sonic Team with a script by veteran Sonic writer Ian Flynn.

Four parts will be published in total. The first chapter, titled “Moment of Truth”, features Sonic Forces’ Custom Hero Character and the Chaotix as they prepare for battle against Dr. Eggman’s sinister robot army. You can read it here.

The next chapter in the series will be unveiled later this month.

Some new footage has come in from the English build of Fire Emblem Warriors showing the game’s History Mode. See the video below.

Square Enix’s new Secret of Mana remake isn’t currently planned for Switch. That’s somewhat surprising given the company’s support of the console thus far. We also can’t forget that Seiken Densetsu Collection also came out in Japan earlier this year.

Redbull recently spoke with producer Masaru Oyamada, and managed to ask why the remake isn’t in the works for Switch. His answer was fairly sound, in which it was explained that development started before Switch was announced. Though Square Enix can’t immediately say that the game will be on Switch, the company would like “to continue listening to the various requests from our fans.”
