Darkest Dungeon arrived on Switch last week. Before you dive into the Crimson Court DLC, you should be aware that it can’t be completed as things stand now.
The bug here is that The Courtyard dungeon starts over from the beginning when players leave and later return. Because of its difficulty and the fact that this particular dungeon was designed for players to make multiple trips, it’s essentially impossible to finish. That’s on top of a gameplay element involving a disease that spreads among your party if they don’t defeat bosses in the Courtyard.
Fortunately, Red Hook Studios is on the case, and a patch has already been submitted to Nintendo. The company has confirmed that the update will also address a problem relating to the controls.
ATTN Switch Owners: We are currently internally testing a FIX for both the Controller Button Input issue and the Baron Quest Saving issue. Will be submitting to Nintendo as soon as resolved fixed.

Camel 101 has announced Those Who Remain, a new psychological thriller. The game is coming to Switch and a few additional platforms.
The following information and trailer have been provided thus far:
What did Nintendo’s headquarters look like nearly 130 years ago? Now we have an answer to that. A newly discovered photo, attached above, shows the building – which was captured during Nintendo’s earliest days.
The photo was published online last month, and we are fortunate to have it from the Meiji150 project. This is a celebration of Kyoto’s history on the 150th anniversary of the Meiji era. Part of this delves into the founding of Nintendo by Fusajiro Yamauchi and the works of civil engineering that created the infrastructure for Big N’s first office.
A new wave of Pokemon are being added to Pokemon GO. Later today, players will be able to find and catch 23 new creatures originally discovered in the Hoenn region. Some of these Pokemon are pictured above.
OPUS: Rocket of Whispers was recently announced for Switch in Japan. Flyhigh Works has now confirmed the game for the west as well. It will be published in North America, Europe, Australia, and New Zealand.

OPUS: Rocket of Whispers is a follow-up to OPUS: The Day We Found Earth, which is currently available on the Switch eShop. The game is “a single-player third-person adventure set in the snowy post-apocalyptic wilderness of an unknown world, far in the future.”
With My Time At Portia arriving on Steam Early Access, Team17 has prepared a new trailer for the game. We’ll be seeing it later this year on Switch.
Here’s today’s trailer:
My Time at Portia is a new RPG and crafting sim game. You’ll find yourself in a town on the edge of civilization where you’ll build and expand a workshop, pursue relationships, explore the land, gather resources, battle monsters, farm, cook, and fish.
Koei Tecmo readied some new details and a trailer for Atelier Lydie & Suelle: Alchemists of the Mysterious Painting. Today’s update covers battle features, such as the ability to synthesize items during battle. The video also covers a number of the game’s characters.
Here’s the full lowdown from Koei Tecmo:
Lost Sphear is officially available today in the west. To celebrate, Square Enix has released a new trailer. We have the video below.
Make sure to download the day one update for Lost Sphear. It features a number of free upgrades including new equipment and artefacts, a new dungeon, the new Moonlight Battleground mode, and more.
Ojiro Fumoto has joined Nintendo, the developer announced on Twitter. Fumoto created Downwell, a well-received roguelike vertically scrolling shooter with platforming elements.
As Fumoto only just started with Nintendo, he likely hasn’t taken on any projects just yet. However, it’ll be interesting to see what role he has with the company in the future.
Super Mario Run has received another small update. The latest patch upgrades the mobile title to version 3.0.8.
Today’s update makes one small but helpful change for experienced but new Super Mario Run players. For the opening tutorial, Nintendo has added in a “Skip” button. We assume that means you no longer need to go through the tutorial if you’re a seasoned gamer.
