Lionsfilm is bringing its free-to-play online fantasy RPG Cryptract to Switch, the company announced today. A release is planned for Switch in Japan on July 11.

Here’s an overview and trailer from the previous PlayStation 4 launch:

Arc System Works has published a new trailer for their upcoming release of Kill la Kill the Game: IF that focuses on the battle systems and controls within the game.

The footage provides over two minutes of info in Japanese. Those interested can view it below.

Nintendo is back with another trailer for Dr. Mario World. Have a look at the latest video below promoting more of the game’s doctors and assistants.

It’s time for the latest Famitsu’s most wanted games chart. This week, Pokemon Sword/Shield remains at the top for Nintendo titles and Animal Crossing: New Horizons is back in the top five.

Head past the break for the full chart. All votes were cast between June 20 and June 26.

Nintendo and Intelligent Systems have updated Fire Emblem Heroes once again. Version 3.7.0 is here, which features updates to Aether Raids as well as new weapon skills and weapons to refine.

Below are the full detail:

Lab Zero Games hosted a panel at Anime Expo 2019 this week, and dedicated a significant amount of time to its Metroidvania RPG Indivisible. That included news about the release date – or lack thereof.

Last we heard, Indivisible was on track for 2019. That’s still the case, but Lab Zero Games wasn’t able to share the release date at its panel. The good news is that they do have a date in mind internally, and it will be announced soon. Lab Zero said the game will arrive “sooner than you think.”

Lab Zero added that Indivisible is “really close to being done.” The studio is now in the final stages of bug fixing, polish, and balancing.

During a recent live stream, Gun Media showed the first footage from Friday the 13th: The Game Ultimate Slasher Edition on Switch. Get a look at the recording below.

Famitsu reported a few days ago that Super Mario Maker 2 shifted nearly 200,000 copies in its first week. Dengeki has things quite a bit lower at 163,000 units, but regardless, it’s the best debut for the series yet. The Wii U and 3DS versions each sold about 150,000 copies in their first weeks.

Dengeki also mentions that Super Mario Maker 2 sold through about 55 percent of its initial shipment. That’s comparable to the 56 percent for the Wii U original and 50 percent for the 3DS edition.

We’ll also mention here that Jikkyou Powerful Pro Baseball for Switch sold 79,000 copies in its first week with a sell-through rate of 65 percent. However, since Jikkyou Powerful Pro Baseball 2018 sold 192,000 units on PS4 and PS Vita, Dengeki feels that the Switch release is off to a bit of a slow start.
