Freedom Planet 2 will be appearing on Switch, GalaxyTrail has announced. The title is slated for Summer 2023 on Nintendo’s console.
Freedom Planet 2 was first announced way back at the end of 2015. The project is now finally wrapping up development and will first launch for PC and Linux on September 13, 2022. Console ports, which includes Switch, will follow next year.
Now that the Ocean Tour is wrapping up, the next event coming to Mario Kart Tour has been announced. The game’s next Tour will be the Sundae Tour, featuring a new Mii Racing Suit, kart elements, and the Sky-High Sundae track which just recently made its way to Mario Kart 8 Deluxe.
You can check out trailers for both the Sundae Tour and the 12th wave of Mii Racing Suits below:
Gunvolt developer Inti Creates today announced Grim Guardians: Demon Purge, a new gothic horror 2D action platformer. We know that it will be appearing on Switch, but a release window hasn’t been announced.
Here’s what we know thus far:
Mario Kart 8 Deluxe fans may have uncovered specific tracks that are planned as future DLC courses thanks to a new datamine.
In the latest update released for the game which brought about the second wave of courses in the Booster Course Pass, fans noticed that Nintendo left song prefetches to many future DLC courses. Nintendo deleted the full songs of unreleased tracks from the ROM, but accidentally left some of the prefetch files, which are stored separately. Music preview files are used since it can take some time to load a full music file from the ROM and this is played while the full file is being loaded, as pointed out by Twitter user OatmealDome.

Spike Chunsoft has released more details about Made in Abyss: Binary Star Falling into Darkness, this time focusing on the game’s Notebook. This logs information on the original characters, relics, primeval creatures, and more.
Here’s the full rundown:
Premium Edition Games is preparing a physical release for Rack N Ruin on Switch, the company has announced.
The title originally debuted in February 2020. Up until now though, it has only been sold as a digital download on the Switch eShop. This marks for the first time it will be offered physically.
Here Comes Niko! was announced for Switch at the end of December, but wasn’t given a release date. However, Gears for Breakfast and Frog Vibes have now confirmed that it will be available on September 1, 2022.
Here Comes Niko! has been on PC for a full year. The Switch version should contain changes that were implemented in a patch since then.
Fight Crab had a physical release on Switch in Asia, but not in other regions. The good news is that this will be changing soon.
Mastiff, the publisher for Fight Crab in North America and Europe, is now planning a “Shella’ Awesome Edition” for the west. Copies include a copy of the game on the cartridge, a sticker sheet, digital download for the original soundtrack, 11×17” original Ukiyo-e style art print, and dual-sided coversheet print.
The previously-announced Shovel Knight Nendoroid now has a release window plus new photos, and pre-orders have opened.
The figure comes complete with a selection of optional parts including his well-known shovel, a powerful attack effect for combat scenes, and a treasure chest that can be opened and closed. Its height is roughly 100mm and POLY-TOYS is handling the sculpting. Since the figure doesn’t balance on its own, you’re advised to use the included stand.
