FIFA 18

A whole bunch of gameplay has come in for the Switch version of FIFA 18, which launches today. Take a look at almost two hours of footage bleow.

Thanks to Jake for the tip.

FIFA 18 is the series’ first entry on Switch, and the first game in the franchise to hit a Nintendo system in quite a few years. On the whole, it contains many of the same features as other platforms, but some key elements are missing.

We do know that The Journey is missing from the Switch version of FIFA 18. The story mode won’t be present, seemingly due to how tied it is to Frostbite. Rather than using that engine on Switch, Nintendo’s console incorporates custom technology.

USgamer also put together a nice piece outlining other missing Switch features that you may not have been aware of. Here’s what the site shares:

Update: Full patch notes added below. Nintendo also fixed a couple of issues and made adjustments to fighters and ARMS.


Original: ARMS already received a big update this month in the form of the Lola Pop patch, adding the new character and more. Just a couple of weeks later, another patch has been issued. Players can download version 3.1.0.

One thing we’ve noticed is that the Sparring Ring has been added in as a fully playable stage, and can be selected in Ranked Match. We’re waiting on the full patch notes, and we’ll add them in here when they’re live.

Koei Tecmo has three more games coming to Switch in Japan on November 8. The company is publishing Dynasty Warriors 8: Empires, Samurai Warriors: Spirit of Sanada, and Warriors Orochi 3 Ultimate.

We’ve posted the boxart for Dynasty Warriors 8: Empires above. The packaging shots for Samurai Warriors: Spirit of Sanada and Warriors Orochi 3 Ultimate are below.

The latest episode of the Play Nintendo Show has gone live. In the new video, Pokken Tournament DX is shown off, and some weirdness ensues. Watch it below.

The FIFA series makes its debut on Switch tomorrow with FIFA 18. Rather than taking what was on other platforms and transplanting it onto Switch, EA created the Switch version with a custom engine. If you’re curious about how FIFA 18 compares to other editions – namely Xbox One – watch the video below.
