It’s the end of the week, which means another weapon update for Splatoon 2. This time, it’s the L-3 Nozzlenose D, which is identical to the regular L-3 Nozzlenose, except that it comes with the Burst Bomb sub-weapon and the Inkjet special. It’ll be available in-game tomorrow around noon in Japan and Australia, early in the morning in Europe and later tonight in North America.
A quick update on Fire Emblem Heroes: first up, a new set of quests has been added. The Infantry Mastery quests, as the name implies, require you to clear specific Training Tower Stratums and Paralogue missions using a team consisting entirely of infantry units. Clearing these quests gets you shards, crystals and orbs.
Also, the Voting Gauntlet event has entered into its final stage. Lissa and Azura have beaten their respective opponents and will now face each other in the final round. The event will end on Sunday.
Gematsu reported that Birthdays the Beginning is coming to the Switch and will have “drastic system improvements compared to its PlayStation 4 and PC counterparts”. The game will be out March 29th for 5,799 yen.

Although it was pretty much expected, Fe will be digital-only when it’s ready, according to developer Zoink Games. Some had been hoping for a physical release, but there are no current plans for that as of now.
Zoink has left the door open to the possibility in the future. At launch though, expect Fe to be available only on the eShop.
For now it's digital! We'll see what happens later on 🙂

Rivals of Aether is a very likely candidate for Switch. In a new blog post, creator Dan Fornace said that Switch is being prioritized. Right now, the team is “currently looking into developers who can help us port the game out of Game Maker Studio so we can release on the Switch.”
Originally released last year, Rivals of Aether is a fighting title “set in a world where warring civilizations summon the power of Fire, Water, Air, and Earth.” Each Rival in the game can use classical elements and animal movement in battle.
You can learn more about Rivals of Aether with the overview and trailer below.
