Xenon Racer launched on various platforms a few days ago, including Switch. Unfortunately, the Switch version lags behind its other console counterparts when it comes to performance and visuals. Given the disparity between the launch trailer – which had been featured on the eShop – and the actual game, it felt like the game was not being advertised properly to potential buyers.
The good news is that the eShop trailer has been removed. Additionally, the team is working on a new Switch-specific video. Sales manager Jonathan Lowe has also promised that improvements are coming to improve the frame rate, reduce load times, and more.

When Activision announced Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled a few months ago, we heard about an extra “Nitros Oxide Edition”. It grants access to Nitros Oxide as a playable character from day one in all game modes, Oxide’s Hovercraft kart, space-themed character skins for Crash, Coco, Cortex, and more.
Nitros Oxide Edition was previously announced as a digital-only release. Over on Amazon UK though, a physical version is up for pre-order. It’s unclear what has changed with Activision’s planning, and if this will only be available in Europe.
Regardless, fans can place a pre-order for Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled – Nitros Oxide Edition on Amazon UK here.
