Ys Memoire: The Oath in Felghana was recently announced by Falcom to be coming to Switch in Spring 2023 as a “refined” remaster of the PSP original. We now know the company is planning to release at least two more of these “refined” titles.

No other details on these games were provided, but given that Falcom recently made a commitment to release three games on Switch by September 2023, it’s very likely we’ll see at least one more of these “refined” games show up on the platform.

Original (12/19): Supervising director Hideki Kamiya has shared a message about Bayonetta Origins: Cereza and the Lost Demon. Earlier this month, Nintendo and PlatinumGames unveiled the project at The Game Awards.
Kamiya noted how the title “is something very new for PlatinumGames, made by a team of young ambitious developers with just a few vets to help along the way.” Abebe Tinari is acting as director while Tomoko Nishii is the art director.
Another notable part of Kamiya’s message is how he mentioned that Bayonetta Origins: Cereza and the Lost Demon was made “with the hope that fans of the series to date will enjoy this unique take on their favorite badass heroine, and also endeavor to deliver an unforgettable experience to players who may not be comfortable with action games… or even players who are unfamiliar with the Bayonetta series in the first place!”
