Earlier today, Nintendo shared art for the third Japanese Splatfest taking place in Splatoon 2 this weekend. We now have the official image for the North American event.

Players can choose to be on either Team Vampire or Team Werewolf. The North American Splatfest begins at the very end of Friday / start of Saturday, and will last for a full day. Expect the results soon after it ends.

This month’s issue of EDGE was originally supposed to be with subscribers at this point. However, the magazine was delayed “to accommodate an exclusive embargo.” Subscribers will have the issue tomorrow, but we’re hearing that it’s already showing up in stores – and Super Mario Odyssey is apparently on the cover.

We don’t have any images just yet, but Mario is shown in a white tuxedo. But more importantly, EDGE appears to have the very first review of the game.

Nintendo UK has posted a new commercial for Fire Emblem Warriors, available for viewing on YouTube. The video is also conveniently posted below.

Fire Emblem Warriors makes its debut on October 20.

THQ Nordic has announced a release date – or rather release dates – for This is the Police on Switch.

Those looking to purchase the game as soon as possible will be able to do so on October 24. THQ Nordic intends to have the digital version ready on that date.

ARMS has another big update arriving this month. Along with some sort of character who looks like Spring Man, we also know that badges will be added.

You’ll be able to earn badges in all sorts of ways. The ARMS version 3.2 trailer showed that winning your first Grand Prix, playing 50 rounds, and earning 1,000 points in currency are just some of the ways you’ll be recognized.

Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus

Bethesda confirmed two new games for Switch during the most recent Nintendo Direct. Along with Doom, the publisher is also bringing Wolfenstein II to the console.

We haven’t heard too much about what we can expect from Wolfenstein II. That isn’t too surprising, however. Doom is on track for this holiday while Wolfenstein II has a general “2018” launch window.

GameSpot did manage to get a few words out of creative director Jens Matthies in a recent interview. The site first asked about the Switch version in general, to which Matthies stated:

Natsume published the first Q&A for Harvest Moon: Light of Hope last week. Yesterday, a new wave of fan questions were answered.

The Q&A confirms some interesting information, including news about the game’s release. Development is said to be “moving along very well,” and it’s scheduled for the end of this winter. A physical version is also officially confirmed.

Here’s the latest Q&A in full:
