New footage has arrived for the Switch platformer Never Give Up. Have a look at the gameplay in the video below.
Hello, my beautiful poison and fairy types. This week on NEP, we have a special guest—three in fact! Jay, James and Julian from Massive Monster join us to talk about their upcoming challenging action-platformer for Nintendo Switch, “Never Give Up”. The devs reveal a lot about their upcoming game including a few secrets, how Egoraptor / Arin Hanson is involved, and their origins as developers that led up to this point.
The trio then sticks around to chat with us about new Pokemon details and lootboxes in gaming, with Nintendo making a statement recently about introducing new rules for transparency. We all get on and have a great chat, and we’re particularly grateful for Massive Monster’s insight on these topics as developers.
If you like what you’re hearing, you can support us by giving NEP a 5 star review on Apple Podcasts, aka new iTunes. We would greatly appreciate if you could help us out! We’re very grateful for your support, and we thank you for listening!

It’s also been announced that the new event Lost Lore is starting soon. Players will send Heroes to scout out other worlds and wait for them to recover lore for the Heroes’ Saga, a collection of tales about Heroes in the Fire Emblem series.
During one of Famitsu’s latest live streams, two more Arcade Archives games were revealed for Switch. Pinball (which may release as VS. Pinball) and Water Ski are both on the way.
Pinball first debuted in Japan in 1984, and was created by Nintendo. Aside from traditional pinball, a separate mode is included in which you play as Mario carrying a platform and attempt to rescue Pauline.
As for Water Ski, this one was made by Taito in 1983. The objective is to control the vehicle and progress by avoiding rocks.
