The Next Penelope has had a long journey to Nintendo consoles. For a long while, we thought that the racer would end up on Wii U. That didn’t happen, but a Switch release was recently assured.

The Next Penelope now has a release date on Nintendo’s console. You’ll be able to find the game on the eShop starting December 21.

Here’s a trailer promoting the upcoming launch:

Nine Parchments, the newest game from developer Frozenbyte, is out today on the Switch eShop. Get a look at some footage below.

2K Sports passed along a handful of new screenshots from the Switch version of WWE 2K18 which officially releases this week. Check out the images below.

Darkest Dungeon isn’t too far away from hitting Switch. When it does launch, all DLC will be distributed at launch. That means The Crimson Court and The Shieldbreaker will be available.

Red Hook Studios is currently working to get Darkest Dungeon ready for submission on Switch. Currently the plan is to have it ready early in 2018 if all goes well.

We won’t have to wait much longer for the newest game from TowerFall creator Matt Makes Games. The indie developer has announced that the Switch game Celeste is slated for January 2018.

Celeste is a platformer about climbing a mountain. It features over 300 levels with “peculiar characters” and “a nuanced story”. HD Rumble will be supported.

Here’s all of the news and a trailer:

Winning Post 8 2018, the latest entry in the horse-racing simulation series, has been announced for Switch. Changes in this version include new horse training systems as well as new events and new characters. It will be released on March 15th, 2018. A Western localization seems extremely unlikely, so this game will likely stay Japan-only.

THQ Nordic released Legend of Kay Anniversary on Wii U in 2015. That same game may now be coming to Switch. Since Legend of Kay Anniversary has been rated by the ESRB, it could be a sign that THQ Nordic has plans to release it on the console.

Here’s an overview and trailer for those who haven’t heard of Legend of Kay Anniversary previously:

“10 years after its initial release, Legend of Kay Anniversary is a thoroughly remastered version of the original game with high resolution textures, new & more detailed character models, modern rendering techniques and crystal-clear surround sound which give this great classic a new shine.

Full of fond allusions to old martial arts films and pop culture quotes, Legend of Kay Anniversary is both an incredibly funny game and a challenging action-adventure for young and old alike.”
