Ubisoft has sent out a bunch of character art for the Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope roster. Mario, Luigi, Peach, Bowser, Rabbid Rosalina, Rabbid Mario, Rabbid Luigi, Rabbid, Peach, and Edge are all shown.
Most of these characters should be immediately recognizable for Mario fans. Edge is an entirely new creation, however. Ubisoft hasn’t had much to say about her so far, but we’ll presumably be learning more in the months to come.
We’ve put together a new list covering the top ten games we feel have the best graphics on Switch.
Switch often comes under fire for its specs and graphical capability as compared to other current-gen consoles. Obviously it is not capable of running games such as the recent Unreal Engine 5 Matrix demo, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t full of great looking games. Switch has its own library of beautiful-looking titles, and those that love playing to admire great graphics shouldn’t write off the console.
So what are the games that look amazing and can only be played on Switch? Well, we’ve got you covered with a list of the top ten that personally stand out to us. These are games that are exclusive to Switch, which means there will be a lot of Nintendo developed and published titles on here. Setting it up this way provides reasons to own the system and to play them on it specifically.
Spike Chunsoft is localizing Anonymous;Code for English fans in the west, the company revealed at Anime Expo 2022 today. The game will be available in North America and Europe in 2023.
Anonymous;Code, the latest entry in the Science Adventure series following titles like Steins;Gate, will be sold both physically and digitally. With the boxed release, fans will be able to pick up the special Launch Edition. Each unit includes a steelbook – the finalized design for this will be showed soon.

Spirit Hunter: Death Mark II will be released in the west in 2023, Aksys Games confirmed at Anime Expo 2022 today.

Today, Aksys Games announced that it’s bringing Shuuen no Virche -ErroR:salvation- to the west. The otome visual novel is expected to hit overseas territories in 2023.

At Anime Expo 2022 today, publisher Aksys Games and developer Dreamloop Games announced the social thriller Inescapable. Switch and other platforms will be getting the title in 2023.
Inescapable takes place on a tropical island resort in which the main character has been kidnapped and forced to participate in a twisted reality TV show with ten strangers. Those that make it to the end will be given $500,000, but the catch is that the island has no rules and no escape. Aksys says the story “explores human nature and how far people will go for social clout, wealth, and their own desires – and how much further they might be willing to go when they have permission to ignore the rules.”
