Elden Ring is heading to Nintendo Switch 2 as part of a Tarnished Edition, and today, FromSoftware detailed the new content it has planned.
New armor, weapons, and customization features for Torrent’s appearance were previously teased. During a “FromSoftware Games Event Spring 2025” event today, a bit of information was shared regarding specifics.
Not one, but two classic games now have icons on Nintendo Switch Online with Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong’s Double Trouble and Yoshi’s Story.
Both of these are “play to unlock” promotions. That means you’ll need to start up each title on Nintendo Switch Online in order for them to be made available. Even if you play for just a second, that counts. Note that Yoshi’s Story requires an Expansion Pack tier subscription.
