To close out yesterday’s Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Direct, director Masahiro Sakurai gave fans a first look at Adventure Mode: World of Light. The opening video shows characters from the roster getting hit with a beam, losing their bodies, and transforming into spirits. Some sort of powerful being is behind it all, but most of the details won’t be known until launch. However, we do at least have one small tidbit.
Over on the official Smash Bros. Ultimate website, Nintendo reveals the name of the main antagonist. We know that some folks can be a bit sensitive to spoilers, so we’ll put that information after the break.
Nintendo brought along an updated demo build for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate to FICOMIC in Barcelona, Spain – complete with the full roster. We’ve included a ton of off-screen videos from the show below.
Nelke & the Legendary Alchemists has received a new batch of details and screenshots covering the secrets to town-building. Find the content below, courtesy of Gematsu.
Bad North has received a new update on Switch. Raw Fury and Plausible Concept are now distributing version 1.04.
With the new patch, the focus was “performance updates which should be especially noticeable on Switch.” The developer also “improved loading times, fixed a number of bugs and updated the application icons to make the game look a bit snazzier on your console home screen.”
Civilization VI will feature up to four-player multiplayer on Switch over local wireless. It will not, however, include online support. The functionality was included in the PC version, but will be missing on Switch for an unspecified reason.
Eurogamer reached out to 2K, and the company confirmed that Civilization VI will not be included on Switch. It also seems that there are no plans to add it in later.
A new Pokemon distribution has started for the month of November. This month, players will be able to obtain Ho-Oh and Lugia.
Those in the United States will be able to obtain either of the two exclusively at GameStop up until November 25. Canadian players can visit EB Games for Ho-Oh and Lugia. Finally, those in the UK will find them at GAME.
Starting today, Taiko no Tatsujin: Drum ‘n’ Fun is available to purchase on Switch in the west. View a new trailer promoting the game’s release below.
Circle Entertainment has announced that it has formed a partnership wtih Vakman to publish Alchemic Cutie on Switch. The game is lined up for a 2019 release.
Alchemic Cutie “is a relaxing adventure RPG set on colorful Wimba Island; while taming wild jellies you’ll meet villagers, enter jelly competitions and uncover the secrets of the island.”

Jake Hunter Detective Story: Prism of Eyes is only available in Japan at present. But could a western release be in the cards as well? A new rating from Korea certainly leaves the door open to the possibility.
The Game Rating and Administration Committee of Korea has rated Jake Hunter Detective Story: Prism of Eyes for Switch (and PlayStation 4) under its English name. Since the listing doesn’t use the Japanese franchise name Tantei Saburou Jinguuji, it suggests that the game will be released outside of Japan. As we know, Aksys Games changes Saburou Jinguuji’s name to Jake Hunter.
If we hear anything else surrounding a possible release for Jake Hunter Detective Story: Prism of Eyes, we’ll be sure to let you know.
