We didn’t have a release date for the Switch version of Five Nights at Freddy’s: Into the Pit, but it turns out that the launch is happening today. The game is already available in various regions, including Europe and Japan. We assume that it will also go live in North America when the eShop updates later today.
Five Nights at Freddy’s: Into the Pit was confirmed for Switch in June. Mega Cat Studios didn’t share any information about launch timing outside of the PC version, so today’s news is a bit surprising.
It’s time for the newest North American Nintendo Download report for the week of August 8, 2024. The latest releases include Cat Quest III, SteamWorld Heist II, and more.
Here’s the full roundup:
Starting today, Switch owners can try out a new demo for Gori: Cuddly Carnage. Wired Productions and Angry Demon Studio, are giving a taste of the game before launch next month.
The demo provides access to the first level of the title. While a demo was previously made available on PC, this version includes visual polish and the addition of enhancements and features including ‘finishers’ on weakened enemies to generate health and energy as well as ‘perfect dodges’, where evading at the right time will slow down time momentarily to allow players to move quicker than the enemies.
After a lengthy wait, the Switch version of Tintin Reporter: The Cigars of the Pharaoh has a release date. It’s locked down for launch on October 17, 2024.
When Tintin Reporter: The Cigars of the Pharaoh comes to Switch, it’ll include a major update. The team added in a new sequence with Tintin on horseback, a gallery of characters, and Tintinologist mode in which players can uncover a wealth of anecdotes about Hergé’s world.
Valfaris: Mecha Therion received a release date on consoles today, including Switch. Big Sugar and Steel Mantis shared the news that it’ll be out for Switch on August 29, 2024.
Nearly a year after it was announced for the system, Valfaris: Mecha Therion is now about to launch on Switch. It’s a sequel to the action platformer Valfaris, but now with 2.5D side-scrolling shoot ‘em up gameplay.
