Original (10/5): Yet another addition to Atari’s “Recharged” line is heading to Switch with the just-announced Berzerk: Recharged. It should be out by the end of 2023.
Berzerk was originally released during the 80’s and was a top-down multidirectional shooter in which players fought hordes of armed robots through an endless, electrified maze. Evil Otto, who manifests as a bouncing smiley face, mercilessly hunts down players in the game. Berzerk: Recharged now updates the experience with refreshed graphics, twin-stick controls, and a new soundtrack by Megan McDuffee.

Star Ocean: The Second Story R appears to be yet another game on Switch with a physical release that requires a download.
Reddit user Casting_Quarters managed to find the RPG at Walmart even though it won’t be out for another week. At the bottom of the boxart, that’s where the dreaded “download required” label can be found. The back mentions that players need to download at least 3GB, but the final size is apparently 4.1GB.
GameMill has shared the launch trailer for Pickleball: Smash – which also happens to be the title’s first trailer. This one just released on Switch.
Here’s some information about the game as provided by the eShop listing:
With Super Mario RPG finally set to return with a Switch remake this year, we’ve started up a guide to round up every notable pre-order bonus for the game ahead of the holiday season.
Super Mario RPG has only ever appeared on the Virtual Console and SNES Slassic, but now Nintendo is giving the game a full overhaul. Obviously, the graphics have been reworked (and there are special cinematics as well). Additionally, the title’s original composer is back on board to update the music.
As for the actual game, players will be going on a quest to save Star Road and stop the troublemaking Smithy Gang. Mario, Bowser, and Peach are in for the ride as well as fan-favorite Geno and Mallo.

Few video game mascots are as instantly recognizable as Sonic the Hedgehog, and even fewer have had such a turbulent career. It often feels as though SEGA doesn’t quite know what it wants to do with the character, and as a result it’s difficult to know what to expect from each new title. Sonic Superstars is now the latest outing for the blue blur, and although it hearkens back to the beloved 2D Genesis games that kickstarted the franchise, there are several modern elements thrown in to shake up the gameplay, both for better and for worse.
Gearbox and Hopoo Games today announced a release date for both Risk of Rain Returns and Risk of Rain 2: Survivors of the Void. Both are due out on November 8, 2023.
Risk of Rain Returns is a complete remake of the original game from the ground up with additional features, enhanced visuals, and new music from composer Chris Christodoulou. Also revealed as Pilot, a highly mobile and context-sensitive Survivor for the game. He’s equipped with a range of utility, direct, and airborne abilities and his signature move, Clusterfire, is a triple burst shot that can damage groups of enemies or finish them off.
