Nintendo has added to its maintenance schedule, and a few more sessions are lined up for the next couple of weeks. There’s only one period planned for next week, but even more for the following week.
Here’s the full maintenance schedule as things stand now:
System: Switch
Release date: September 24, 2021
Developer: CyberConnect2
Publisher: Bandai Namco
Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot again has Goku and co.’s adventures and sagas represented, but this time in a much different format that hasn’t felt this fresh and exciting in a long while. Having put almost 100 hours when it initially released at the beginning of 2020, the semi open-world take felt like a modern day Legacy of Goku mixed with the design philosophy of One Piece: World Seeker, but done so in a way that still retained the essence of the IP and left no shortage of fights for the player to enjoy and reach higher power levels with. The Switch version undoubtedly sees a few technical downgrades compared to other platforms, and it was a bit jarring at first, but after having settled with the game for quite some time now, it’s arguably Bandai Namco’s most competent Dragon Ball port yet, making for a really great DBZ experience that can now be played at home or on the go.
The time-and-mind bending adventure game The Plane Effect has come to Switch, and publisher PQube and developer Innovina are promoting the trailer with a launch trailer. Switch just got the game this week.
Here’s an overview with additional information:
