1917 – The Alien Invasion DX is a bullet hell shooter. For Switch, Korion Games has included cooperative multiplayer and more content as the “definitive edition”.
NIS America confirmed yesterday that it has several patches in the works for Switch. Among what will be addressed on launch day, the company will be fixing some issues with text. Future updates include tackling crashing issues, implementing Japanese voices, and more.
Here’s the full rundown on Ys VIII’s Switch updates:
Retailers are gearing up for the NES Classic Edition’s restock on June 29. GameStop has come forward with a few details on how it will be handling things.
GameStop will have “at least 10 units per store,” with some locations possibly having a larger stock. Quantities will be limited and will be sold on a first-come, first-served basis.
A few minutes of footage has emerged for Labyrinth of Refrain: Coven of Dusk in portable mode on Switch. View the gameplay below.
Alongside the new summer-centric summoning focus for Fire Emblem Heroes, the mobile game has received some Paralogue Maps. Check out footage of the content below.
Pokemon GO has added a new Legendary Pokemon. Starting today, Regice can be found in Raid Battles worldwide. The Pokemon will be live until July 19.
Regirock and Registeel are also planned for Pokemon GO. Both should be rolled out in subsequent weeks.
Side note: Solrock and Lunatone have now switched regions to commemorate the Solstice.
As far as we know, Japan is the only region where Okami HD is having a physical release on Switch. Thankfully, you can import the game, and we’re now hearing that English will be a supported language option. That isn’t overly surprising given Capcom’s handling of other Switch titles, but the confirmation is reassuring.
Play-Asia currently has pre-orders open for the physical version of Okami HD on Switch. You can reserve the standard release here or limited edition with a soundtrack CD here.
