Atooi announced Mutant Mudds Collection for Switch last week. It will contain Mutant Mudds, Mutant Mudds Super Challenge, and the new puzzle title Mudd Blocks.

Atooi founder Jools Watsham said in a vlog last week that he’s hoping to submit Mutant Mudds Collection within the next few days. A release date hasn’t been set, but it will likely be available sooner rather than later. You can at least expect it before Christmas.

Watsham also told one fan on YouTube that Atooi hopse to do a small physical run sometime next year. The studio may choose to team up with Limited Run Games for that. Limited Run previously said that they’d like to begin providing physical titles of indie offerings on Switch in 2018.

Thanks to Roto for the tip.

Here’s a look:

Other than “Just Mario”, the Switch version of Just Dance 2018 also allows for two-handed choreographies using the Joy-Con.

A new patch is now available for Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle, bringing the game up to version 1.2.400297. There are no patch notes so far, but it seems like the purpose of this update is to prepare the game for the upcoming DLC, which is actually being released very soon. The digital receipt you get when buying the season pass now lists October 17th as the release date for the first part of the DLC, the challenge maps. The second part of the DLC, which will bring new story content, has also gotten a concrete release date: January 16th, 2018.

On the Xenoblade Chronicles 2 Japanese Twitter we got some interesting screenshots of Nia’s blade, Dromarch, being able to be mounted and used to traverse the main world. It seems the ability to ride Dromarch is specific to Nia. You can check out the tweet down below.
