You might be wondering: isn’t it too early to be thinking about a Xenoblade Chronicles 2 remaster? The answer might surprise you: not really! The original Xenoblade Chronicles released in Japan in 2010, and in America in 2012. It then received a Definitive Edition on Nintendo Switch in 2020. If Xenoblade Chronicles 2 were going to receive a remaster on the same timetable, getting it this year wouldn’t be out of the question. That said, given how Monolith Soft released Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition in March, that clearly isn’t happening. In fact, we think we’ll probably see a Xenoblade Chronicles 4 before a potential Xenoblade Chronicles 2 remaster, but after that, we think it’s possible that the studio will eventually revisit the game. So today, we’re going through a full list of changes we would want to see in a hypothetical Xenoblade Chronicles 2: Definitive Edition on Nintendo Switch 2. There are spoilers ahead, so be warned if you’re still trying to avoid them all these years later.
Nintendo Switch 2 launches on June 5, so we’re less than a month away from release. Compared to other Nintendo console debuts, there will actually be a significant amount of games to choose from immediately.
Nintendo itself will ship Mario Kart World and Nintendo Switch 2 Welcome Tour. There’ll also be the Nintendo Switch 2 Editions of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom. Many third-party games will be available, including Cyberpunk 2077, Street Fighter 6, Bravely Default: Flying Fairy HD Remaster, Split Fiction, Fast Fusion, and more.
Which game – or games – will you be picking up for the Nintendo Switch 2 launch? Maybe you’re someone who’s actually not planning on grabbing anything right away? No matter the case, let us know in the comments.
Although Stardew Valley has been around for many years, the game hasn’t charged for any of its updates. Everything has been free. That’s despite the fact that many of its patches have been substantial, bringing along new content, features, and more.
For what Stardew Valley has brought to the game over the past decade, many studios would have opted to charge for at least some of it as paid DLC. ConcernedApe, however, has not gone down that path. Now we get to hear directly from its creator about why all of the updates have been free.
Bayonetta creator Hideki Kamiya has shared some extensive thoughts about his plans for the series had he stayed on with PlatinumGames.
Kamiya left the company at the end of 2023. He has since founded the new studio Clovers and is teaming up with Capcom on an Okami sequel.

A launch trailer has been released to coincide with the debut of Captain Blood. After it was originally in the works in the 2010s but was scrapped after the original publisher went bankrupt, it’s now finally here fifteen years later.

Previously, we discussed a list of characters we could potentially see in the next Super Smash Bros. game on Nintendo Switch 2. Continuing from that idea, new fighters alone might not be enough to differentiate it from Ultimate, which is part of why we think the next Smash game will be all-new rather than an enhanced port. A new Smash would need to retain Ultimate’s focus on high-quality gameplay and movement options, but it would also have to include plenty of new and returning modes to set itself apart as a wholly different experience from the Nintendo Switch title.
Here are some of the modes and features we’d like to see added to the next Smash Bros. game. While we don’t have an announcement of any sort right now (nor any confirmation that a new game is even in development), one would think that there’ll eventually be an announcement, even if it’s far in the future.
Thanks to Untold Tales, the launch trailer for Bearnard is now available. Nintendo Switch just received the 8-bit action adventure game which includes turn-based combat, archery, and card combat.
