NIS America announced its lineup for E3 2018 today. Everything the publisher intends to have on hand is planned for Switch, including Labyrinth of Refrain: Coven of Dusk, Disgaea 1 Complete, SNK 40th Anniversary Collection, and Ys VIII. There will apparently be “some exciting announcements” as well.
Here’s further information about each title:
Blitworks and SkyGoblin recently announced The Journey Down for Switch. Today, final release dates for the three different chapters were shared.
Here’s the full rundown:
Monolith Soft, developer of the Xenoblade series, has established a new studio in Iidabashi, Tokyo. The branch opened its doors this month.
Monolith Soft has two other studios that it has used over the years. The company has a main branch in Tokyo, where its big projects tend to be produced. Its other in Kyoto has primarily assisted the development of Nintendo titles.

Eurogamer obtained the following statement:
Tennis World Tour is seeing another delay on Switch. From publisher Bigben, a new date of June 19 has been announced for Europe and July 10 for North America.
Originally, Tennis World Tour was expected for Switch on May 22. It was then pushed back to June 12. Here’s hoping that this new date sticks.
