As first spotted by Gematsu, the Korean based video game publisher CFK is bringing a new game to the Switch. This game is Nevaeh, a black and white side-scroller that follows a girl and her butterfly as they fight against fearsome monsters in order to return light to their village.
Nevaeh is scheduled for a September 25th release on Steam but is also coming to Switch. It is unknown at this time if the Switch version will have the same release date as the Steam version.
A trailer for the game has been included below, as well as a link to its store page for more information.
Dragalia Lost has released its newest update (version 1.21.1) which basically just fixes a few bugs spotted in the game. The update is available to download now on iOS and Android and is around 101MB.
Inti Creates has announced a new 1.2.0 update for Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon 2. When it goes live on July 16, players will be able to access a Boss Rush Mode after meeting certain in-game conditions. Bug fixes will be implemented as well.
Here’s a video showing off Boss Rush Mode:

The full patch notes are as follows:
Nintendo has published another pair of commercials for Paper Mario: The Origami King. We’ve included today’s adverts below.
Paper Mario: The Origami King will be out for Switch on July 17.
Yesterday, Nintendo and Monolith Soft distributed a new 1.1.2 update for Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition. It took a bit of time, but we finally have the full details on what’s included.
Below are the entire patch notes in English:
Game Rant has got its hands on a supposed promo image showing an apparent upcoming project from Square Enix and Crystal Dynamics titled Tomb Raider: The Ultimate Experience.
The art shows off three different generations of Tomb Raider. If accurate, we could be getting a package featuring the original trilogy, games from the latter half of the 2000s, and the most recent entries.
The image alone doesn’t make this official, as there’s no way to confirm currently if it comes from Square Enix or was fan-made. We do see an apparent August 27 release date on the promo piece, so we should be hearing about Tomb Raider: The Ultimate Experience soon if it’s actually real.
Pokemon is a massive franchise worldwide, but that wasn’t always in the case. There was initial uncertainty as to whether it would take off, especially in North America.

It turns out that a redesign was proposed for the creature that involved “something like a tiger with huge breasts.” That’s according to Tsunekazu Ishihara, the CEO of The Pokemon Company.
The full quote from Ishihara is as follows:
