Nintendo has just confirmed that the trio of Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak amiibo will now be releasing on August 12 in Australia and New Zealand.

For those interested, pre-orders of the three amiibo are live now, available either through EB Games or the My Nintendo Store here.

Astroneer Rails update version 1.25.147.0

Astroneer has just received a major 1.25.147.0 patch on Switch, otherwise known as the “Rails” update.

No Man's Sky Endurance

Although Hello Games has been tinkering away on the new Switch version of No Man’s Sky, the studio has been continuing work on the main experience itself – and today unveiled a new Endurance update. Thankfully, we have confirmation that it will be included when the title arrives on Nintendo’s console later this year.

The Endurance update for No Man’s Sky contains a significant amount of content, but the main takeaway is that it includes “deeper and more varied freighter base building, including exterior platforms and catwalks; enhanced nebulae and deep space storms; fleets of organic frigates; and so much more”. You can find plenty of additional details and the full patch notes here.

This marks the fourth consecutive year that Nintendo’s console is receiving a Legacy Edition of the sports franchise. The game will have updates for kids, clubs, squads, and commentary, but not much else will be different – just like last year and other years prior. That means if you bought FIFA on Switch previously, FIFA 23 Legacy Edition will be largely the same.
