Konami seemed to be teasing something for Super Bomberman R earlier this week. Now we know what’s planned for the game, and there’s quite a lot coming.

A new Grand Prix mode has been announced with the game’s appearance on Tokyo Game Show. Fans can look forward to 3 vs. 3 team battles. There is also a new rule called “Crystal” and new characters with unique skill sets. Characters are from Rumble Roses (Reiko Hinomoto) and Zone of the Enders (Anubis, Jehuty).

This week’s issue of Famitsu confirmed that Steins;Gate Elite is coming to Switch. Following up on that, the magazine posted an interview with Chiyomaru Shikura from 5pb.

At one point, Switch was brought up. Shikura didn’t have much to say about this version for one simple reason. 5pb. doesn’t intend to make any version different, meaning Steins;Gate Elite on Switch will be exactly the same as the PlayStation releases. All versions will be equal across Switch, PlayStation 4, and PlayStation Vita.

We’ve already posted file sizes for two Switch games today, so let’s throw another one into the mix. According to Nintendo’s UK website, FIFA 18 is 14301.53MB. In other words, it’s just over 14GB.

Comparing that amount to NBA 2K18, another recent sports game for Switch, the initial download was 6.8GB. However, an additional software update for 2K Sports’ game takes up 16.1GB. NBA 2K18 save files also eat up 5GB.

Currently we’re only aware of the single, initial download for FIFA 18, which is the aforementioned 14GB. If we hear anything else, we’ll let you know.

The big Together Update has started to roll out across various platforms today. However, the wait for its release on Switch will be a bit longer. Right now, the plan is to have it ready this winter.

Mojang wrote in a blog post:
