Huntdown Arcade Mode

Huntdown has received a new update on Switch, bringing the title to version 1.0.8 and adding Arcade Mode. While it’s a simple patch in the sense that it only has one new element, it’s a big one with a totally original feature for the game.

The new mode actually went live on PC back in May. However, Switch fans have needed to wait until now to access the feature.

Thanks to Black Friday and the upcoming holiday season, Switch just had its biggest sales week ever in the UK. We’re hearing that the system’s bundle, which contains Mario Kart 8 Deluxe and a three month subscription to Nintendo Switch Online, was a big hit. However, we do not have concrete data at this time – Nintendo may have some official information to share in the days ahead.

Still, Switch outsold its competition over the past week with its strong sales. According to GamesIndustry’s Christopher Dring, “Xbox Series S was in (a very distant) second place”. We also know that Mario Kart 8 Deluxe topped the UK sales chart showing that there’s still very much demand and interest in that game.
