Hand of Fate 2 is a possibility for Switch. Developer Defiant Development is looking into it at least. In an interview about Hand of Fate 2, communications manager Lee May said, “it’s definitely something we’re investigating.”
May’s full words:
“Definitely a possibility, but we’re not promising anything yet. The Switch is very popular around the studio and we recognize that the mobile format is a lovely fit for Hand of Fate’s gameplay. We don’t have anything to announce on the platform at the moment, but it’s definitely something we’re investigating. There are a ton of fantastic indies on the Switch right now, and we’d love to join them.”
If Hand of Fate 2 were to make it to Switch, it would be yet another well-loved indie series on the platform.
Link’s Hideaway claims to have obtained information about a new bundle for The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. A supplier listing indicates that the game will be getting an “Explorer’s” bundle on November 23. The UPC and manufacturer part number are different from the original launch version, further suggesting that this is an entirely new package.
As for what’s in the bundle, it’ll come with the game, a two-sided map, and Explorer’s Guide with lore and learnings. The listing does not make mention of any DLC.
If the listing is accurate, this new bundle will cost $59.99.

Here’s the thing: Night in the Woods: Weird Autumn Edition was confirmed for almost every major platform. Switch wasn’t included, but there could be a reason for that. The official Twitter account teased that we should “stay tuned for news on another console, which I am unable to mention for reasons, but you know what console I’m talking about.” One would have to assume that Switch is being referenced here.
