Nacon and KT Racing have announced the Switch release date for TT Isle of Man 2, the new motorcycle game. It’ll be out both physically and digitally on May 14.

Here’s a bunch of information about TT Isle of Man 2:

Playtonic has announced a new update for Yooka-Laylee and the Impossible Lair. Switch players should have access starting April 14.

One of the major changes concerns the Impossible Lair itself with two options: “Not So Impossible Lair” and “Impossible Lair”. The first one includes optional checkpoints, while the latter means you’ll need to play without the Bee Shield or checkpoints. If you do go with Impossible Lair and clear the level, you’ll earn the “Golden Try” Tonic. 

Here’s the full rundown of the update:

Zarude

The Pokemon Company today offered up the latest news about Zarude in Pokemon Sword/Shield.

In the game, when Zarude is raised to level 90, it can learn the new Grass-type move called Jungle Healing. It’s said that the move will provide some recovery.

Here’s the full announcement with all of the details:

Microids has made one of the more random game announcements for Switch that we’ve seen in recent times: My Baby. The new title will launch on July 9, and will even have a physical release. We have the boxart above.

Microids said that My Baby will let you “create your dream baby, pick up their perfect outfit and customize their room as you like it”. It also sounds like you’ll be taking care of them based on screenshots shared today.

It’s been speculated that Animal Crossing: New Horizons could be getting an art wing at the museum after some interesting dialogue was spotted from one of the game’s villagers. Now something similar is happening with Brewster and The Roost.

The coffee shop has appeared in previous entries in the series, and was once a part of the museum. In Animal Crossing: New Leaf, it was in its own dedicated location. However, in Animal Crossing: New Horizons, The Roost along with Brewster are no where to be seen.

Charlotte Smoothie is joining One Piece: Pirate Warriors 4 as the game’s first DLC character, this week’s issue of Weekly Jump reveals. The character will be available this summer.

Charlotte Smoothie first appeared in the Whole Cake Island Arc. She’s a part of the Big Mom Pirates and is one of the Three Sweet Commanders.

You’ll be able to purchase this new character individually as DLC. Charlotte will also be included in the One Piece: Pirate Warriors 4 digital Deluxe Edition, which will also include other new characters and extras.
