Splatoon 3 introduced Tricolor Turf Wars as one of its big new features, and the developers behind the game have now discussed how it came to be.
Tricolor Turf War puts a spin on Splatfests that started out with the series’ very first game. During the second half of these events, three teams fight at the same time and it’s up to the first-place team to defend themselves in the 4-v-2-v-2 match type.
We reported on the Sonic Frontiers “Birthday Bash” update earlier today which added new content and features, but now that the patch notes for version 1.30 are in, we can see that there was actually more than what SEGA announced during the Sonic Central presentation.
There are actually a bunch of additions here that you may have been unaware of. SEGA has since highlighted an ability to change the rate of deceleration when jumping, an option to set whether the camera will use dramatic angles when skills are used, 24 songs to the Juke Box and Song Memories on each island, and more.
The full patch notes for the Sonic Frontiers version 1.30 update are as follows:
Batman: Arkham Trilogy marks another Switch release that won’t include everything on the physical cartridge when it launches later this year.
As previously reported, the collection includes Batman: Arkham Asylum, Batman: Arkham City, and Batman: Arkham Knight (plus all DLC). However, according to the official FAQ, only the first title is included. Players going physical will need to download Arkham City and Arkham Knight in order to play them.
Curse of the Sea Rats has issued its latest update, and version 1.3.7 is now available.
The update improves the combat system with animation cancelling, slicker controls, hit box, and attack range tweaks. Players will also find an updated map UI, pitfall deaths have been disabled, and the end game has been changed for a smoother experience.
The full patch notes for the Curse of the Sea Rats version 1.3.7 update are as follows:
Limited Run Games has announced that its annual showcase will be held on July 12, 2023. It will air at 1 PM PT / 4 PM ET / 9 PM in the UK / 10 PM in Europe.
These LRG3 events from Limited Run Games have been taking place since 2018. We typically find out about a slew of physical releases for Switch, but the company sometimes sneaks in some brand new announcements as well. Limited Run Games says it will be showing over twenty physical and digital releases this time around, and most should be for Switch.
Limited Run Games just announced that it’s working on a physical release of Bear’s Restaurant and Fishing Paradiso. It’s a two-in-one double pack, so you’ll be getting two titles here.
Bear’s Restaurant first came to Switch in June 2021, followed by Fishing Paradiso the following year. Read more about both below.

During the 2023 Sonic Central presentation, SEGA shared the latest on Sonic Frontiers, and revealed that a “Birthday Bash” update is dropping today for free.

Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 1 was confirmed for Switch earlier this week, but Konami won’t be stopping there as Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 2 is happening as well. This package is also apparently planned for Switch, and it looks like the lineup has been revealed.
Twitter user Nitroid discovered placeholder buttons within the official website’s source code. Specifically, these are for Metal Gear Solid 4, Metal Gear Solid 5, and Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker. IGN reports that the lineup here is accurate.
