We finally look at Mortal Kombat 1 on Switch with gameplay, which ties in with the game’s release. The port has come under fire over the past few days, but you can see how it turned out regardless.
Here’s a brief overview of Mortal Kombat 11:
System: Switch
Release date: August 24, 2023
Developer: Colorgrave
Publisher: Colorgrave
It would be fair to say that while Capcom hasn’t entirely abandoned the Mega Man franchise, it has been somewhat lax with support for it within recent times, favoring collective releases of past series rather than making entirely new games. It has fallen to smaller studios to carry the torch and deliver new experiences, and Battery Staple Games has risen to the occasion magnificently with 30XX, a follow-up to their previous take on the formula.
Evil Dead: The Game will no longer be released on Switch as this version of the title has been cancelled. That’s according to the official Twitter (or X) account, which updated fans on the situation today.
Unfortunately, we don’t have much insight into the decision. The message merely states that Saber Interactive and Boss Team Games “will not be releasing a Nintendo Switch version of the game.”

In this guide for Fae Farm we’ll tell you where to find Frost Thistle. You’ll need this material to craft many different items later during your adventure.
Once you’ve completed “A Way to Clear the Air” and restored life to the Elven Village, it will be time to move on from the Fae Realm to new areas you haven’t been able to explore yet. Back in town, Frida will give you the quest “A Refreshing Favor” after you’ve spoken with her, and will ask you for a Frost Thistle. As you might have guessed, you’ll find this item at the Frozen Plateau, an area you won’t have been able to access before now due to the blizzard freezing your character after a few seconds.
