Square Enix is planning one more Dragon Quest XI Channel S live stream, which will take place just ahead of the Switch game’s launch next week. It will be held on September 26 between 9 PM and 1 AM Japan time.
Dragon Quest series creator Yuji Horii and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate director Masahiro Sakurai will have a special discussion to kick off the live stream. Then during the second part of the broadcast, the game’s Japanese voice actors will discuss Dragon Quest XI and the series as a whole, followed by a launch celebration when the clock strikes midnight on September 27.
We have a small update on Digimon Survive, courtesy of voice actor Volcano Ota. Xuanwumon, a vaccine-type Digimon and one of the series’ known Four Holy Beasts, is now confirmed to be in the game.
Bandai Namco will be bringing Digimon Survive to Switch sometime in 2020.

The Switch Lite is significantly cheaper than the original system. This new version costs $200, whereas the main launch device is still set at $300. It was all very calculated, as Nintendo “wanted to make it cheaper for a bigger impact and to make sure it will be a big hit in the U.S.,” according to The Wall Street Journal’s Takashi Mochizuki.
