Switch

A new Nintendo Direct will be airing not too long from now – it’ll be the first general presentation since September 2019. The fun begins at 2 PM PT / 5 PM ET / 10 PM in the UK / 11 PM in Europe.

We have the different streams for today’s Nintendo Direct below, and we’ll also have a live blog going manned by Ervin. Expect additional coverage on the main site during and after the presentation.

This month’s issue of V Jump provides the latest news on Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2. Bandai Namco is still going strong with DLC for the game, and fans will soon be able to vote on the next character.

Bandai Namco will be hosting a poll with three different possible characters: Ultra Instinct Omen Goku, Bergamo, and Dyspo. The one with the most votes will ultimately be added to the game.

Other new Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 details include:

Toadette

Most Mario games only have you playing as Mario himself, but Super Mario 3D World is a bit different. Other characters from the Mushroom Kingdom can be used and even have their own abilities and gimmicks.

Crash Bandicoot 4: It's About Time

YouTuber Canadian Guy Eh has shared some of the first gameplay from the Switch version of Crash Bandicoot 4: It’s About Time.
