Just like over the past couple of years, EA will have a FIFA game ready to go on Switch later in 2019. However, it will be a “Legacy Edition” – meaning it won’t include the new FIFA Street-style mode Volta Football from other platforms, nor will it contain a number of other big features.
In an interview with Eurogamer, FIFA 20 executive producer Aaron McHardy discussed what fans can expect from the Legacy Edition on Switch. He said:
During YouTube Live at E3 2019 today, SNK revealed the first DLC character for Samurai Shodown. Rimururu will be joining the game, the company revealed.
Here’s her character trailer:
While Samurai Shodown will be out on Switch this winter, it will initially launch later this month on other platforms. It’s unclear how SNK will be approaching the Switch version, but the first six months of Samurai Shodown’s DLC will be free to those who purchase the game and redeem its season pass within the first week of release.

Accessibility has become a more prominent topic in the gaming industry over the past few years. While many are able to play games without hurdles, that isn’t the case for everyone. Fortunately, we’ve started to see companies like Microsoft come up with products such as the Xbox Adaptive Controller for those with disabilities.
What about Nintendo? Unfortunately, COO Steven Spohn told Game Informer that discussions with Nintendo of America about promoting accessibility tend to go nowhere when “corporate gets involved.” He said, “We have tried reaching out to Nintendo on the corporate level only to be met with silence.”
