The latest European Nintendo Downloads for the week of April 17, 2025 are as follows:

The Mario Kart World Direct is almost here, and for those looking to tune in, we’ve got a dedicated post for the live stream. Look for the broadcast to kick off at 6 AM PT / 9 AM ET / 2 PM in the UK / 3 PM in Europe. The event will be about 15 minutes long.

We were given a pretty good look at the game during the Nintendo Switch 2 Direct and Treehouse: Live just a couple of weeks ago, but Nintendo clearly has more to say. If there’s anything significant, we’ll pass it along on the main site. Nintendo should also provide us with an official recap announcement after the event which we’ll share as well.

Koei Tecmo has announced a new update for Warriors: Abyss, which will be released on April 25, 2025. In its announcement the company teased a slew of new characters, and another challenge for players.

Koei Tecmo made the announcement on X, with an image of character silhouettes. The caption explains that the characters featured in the update would begin being unveiled tomorrow.

Winterwire Games will soon be releasing its debut title Power Sink on Nintendo Switch, the developer announced today. It’s due out on May 22, 2025.

Power Sink is a circuit-solving puzzle platformer set beneath the sea. In the game, as power is failing, players will need to restore power, uncover the past, and navigate the depths.

The Croc: Legend of the Gobbos remaster has received its first update, with a couple issues reported by the community now being fixed.

The Nintendo Switch version specifically moved the physical position of the jump, 180 degree flip, and attack to match the how the original game controlled, as well as how the other platforms control.

Here is the full rundown of the rest of the patch notes:

A new version 1.0.9 update recently started distribution for Front Mission 2: Remake.

The game has received improvements to localization, UI, gameplay balance, and overall stability. Of course, this naturally includes some bug fixes, too.

The full overview of the new update is as follows:

April 2: One tidbit that may have gone under the radar regarding Nintendo Switch 2 is that the system will support variable refresh rate (VRR).

Nintendo notes that VRR “helps games move seamlessly by preventing frame skips and flickering.” Arcade Archives Ridge Racer 2 is one title that has specifically mentioned making use of the tech.

Starlight Legacy was given its Nintendo Switch release date today, and it turns out we won’t have to wait long to see it. Eastasiasoft and Decafesoft will launch the title on May 28, 2025.

The retro pixel art JRPG was originally confirmed for Nintendo Switch back in September. 

If you missed it the first time around, here’s an overview of the game:

After it originally debuted nearly seven years ago, Jimmy and the Pulsating Mass is confirmed to be heading to new platforms, including Nintendo Switch. Although there’s no word on launch timing, Electric Airship says that it’s teaming up with Starseed Games on the port.

Jimmy and the Pulsating Mass, a Japanese-style RPG, takes inspiration from SNES games like Earthbound, Final Fantasy 5, and the Breath of Fire series. Yume Nikki is also said to be a heavy influence.

Some additional details can be found in the following overview:

High On Life will be making its Nintendo Switch debut very soon, and we now have confirmation that a physical release is planned. Limited Run Games shared the news today.

High On Life will be available standalone, meaning there won’t be any special editions. However, Limited Run Games is also offering Kenny glow-in-the-dark plush.
