Koei Tecmo has just released released new screenshots and information for the Fates DLC pack coming to Fire Emblem Warriors. This information below comes from the Fire Emblem Warriors Japanese website and Perfectly Nintendo.

Nintendo Everything has spotted a rating in Taiwan that reveals the existence of what appears to be a brand new entry in the Scribblenauts franchise. Scribblenauts Showdown is coming to Switch in addition to the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, according to the classification.

The listing doesn’t tell us much, but it provides a very small look at some key art (and potential boxart) depicting main character Maxwell and his sister Lily. Aside from that, the classification only states that Warner Bros. is publishing, 5th Cell is on board once again as the developer, and it will be a puzzle game. Again, nothing overly exciting, but the news itself is very significant.

The new Friends to the End expansion for Shantae: Half-Genie Hero will launch on December 12, WayForward has announced. This applies to the Switch version and North American Wii U release. In Europe, the DLC is slated for the following week in Europe.

Friends to the End is the final final piece of the Shantae: Half-Genie Hero storyline. Sky, Bolo, and Rottytops are featured as new playable characters.

WWE 2K18 has landed on Switch, but it will continue to receive attention. Blind Squirrel, who worked on the game for Nintendo’s console, says that updates are on the way.

The studio tweeted a short while ago:


WWE 2K18 isn’t in the best shape on Switch at the moment. Players have reported all sorts of technical issues, such as a slow frame rate in handheld mode. Hopefully all of the kinks will be worked out in the weeks ahead.
