If you own Little Nightmares on Nintendo Switch, you won’t be able to upgrade to the new Enhanced Edition on Switch 2 – so you have to buy the game again. Bandai Namco has now commented on the decision.
In an FAQ, the company said that “technical constraints” prevented the upgrade. This goes against what’s happening on other platforms. For example, those who own the original 2017 version on PS4 will be able to upgrade to the PS5 Enhanced Edition for free.
A little more than a month before launch, the first gameplay has come in for Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment. Ten minutes of footage has emerged from the 2025 Tokyo Game Show demo. Everything here is in direct-feed.
All of the footage highlights a level from the Depths. We get looks at Princess Zelda, Mineru, and Rauru battling it out against enemies.
Dragon Ball Z DLC is in the works for Minecraft, it’s been revealed.
That news just dropped during Minecraft Live today. A release window wasn’t provided.
Thousands of games are currently available on Switch, and there are a ton of demos out there for many of them. Not just Nintendo, but also third-parties are offering demos. We’ve now put together a comprehensive list of what’s out there.
Since our reader base is English-speaking, that’s what we’re focusing on here. In other words, we’re highlighting Switch demos that you can find in North America and Europe. Japan has a few extra demos on its end, but a majority of them are for titles that are not currently being sold in the west and are only playable in Japanese.
When Dynasty Warriors Origins comes to Nintendo Switch 2 early next year, it’ll run at 30 frames per second. Koei Tecmo has now commented on why that is.
Dynasty Warriors Origins originally ran at 60 FPS on other platforms. Technically, Nintendo Switch 2 could do this as well. Omega Force brand head Tomohiko Sho has indicated that 60 FPS would be possible on the console if they cut back on the amount of soldiers comparable to previous entries in the series.
June 26: Arc System Works is making Dear Me, I Was for Nintendo Switch 2, the company just announced. The title arrives this summer.
Dear Me, I Was is an interactive adventure game. Taisuke Kanasaki, who was the art director for Hotel Dusk and Another Code, is handling the same role for this project.
Here’s what’s been shared thus far:
July 31: During today’s Nintendo Direct, Square Enix unveiled Octopath Traveler 0. It will be available on December 4, 2025.

September 25: There technically hasn’t been an official announcement, but it looks like fans can expect new amiibo for Monster Hunter Stories 3: Twisted Reflection.
Capcom is at the 2025 Tokyo Game Show this week, and the company has three new figures on display. Specifically, there are three that are being shown off. This is especially interesting as we haven’t heard about any of them – until now. It does make sense as Capcom supported the series’ previous entries with amiibo.
Here’s a look at the different figures, courtesy of the following photo snapped by RodimusPrimal82:
