Leading up to the release of Gods & Monsters early next year on Switch, Ubisoft has begun sharing some developer insight on the game through internal interviews and blogs.
Specifically, their latest interview — involving Creative Director Jonathan Dumont and Senior Producer Marc-Alexis Côté — focuses on building the players’ journey as well as location and theme within the game. Check out the interview snippets below.
Activision has confirmed that an upcoming update for Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled on Switch — the Version 1.05 update — will introduce specific measures for improving load times.
Specifically, the support page for the game states that this will be done using a “Boost Mode”. No further details were given, aside from other fixes and that the update should go live this week. The full notes can be viewed below.
Following the game’s recent announcement for Switch, some gameplay footage of WayForward and Arc System’s Works’ River City Girls has surfaced.
Specifically, GameXplain has supplied off-screen footage of the PlayStation 4 version of the game from Anime Expo, so Switch owners can get a look at the upcoming game as well. Feel free to check out the eight minutes of footage below.
Hello my beautiful Popos and Nanas! Oni and Galen have a great discussion overall, in our most intimate episode of NEP yet. We talk localization and well-written characters in fiction, the pros and cons of the Switch Lite (and what this could mean for a future “Pro” variant), Dr. Mario and how different in design it is, and we tie things up with a discussion of Fire Emblem and LGBTQ+ representation in media and video games. We hope you enjoy.
The best way to support our show is to give us a review on iTunes, so we would appreciate if you could take the time to do so. We really appreciate all your support and thank you so much for listening!
