Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition

In a recent interview with Nintendo Everything, Aspyr explained how it approached the recently-released Nintendo Switch 2 version of Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition.

There’s been a lot of talk about the port since the launch last month. Especially given that there’s also a version for the original Nintendo Switch, some have speculated that the Switch 2 version is based on that one. We asked product manager Jordon Reese about this to clarify the situation.

Reese said in our interview:

Deus Ex Remastered delayed

Aspyr just announced a delay for Deus Ex Remastered.

Originally, the game was planned to hit Nintendo Switch and other platforms on February 5, 2026. However, the project has now moved back to an unspecified date. Aspyr says that in delaying the game, it hopes “to better meet fan expectations and deliver the best possible experience for players”.

The full statement reads:

Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic 2, which launched on Nintendo Switch on June 8, 2022, was originally announced with a promised piece of additional content. The reveal trailer stated that the game would also include the Restored Content DLC, noting that it would be available “soon”. However, that DLC was later quietly cancelled for reasons that were, at the time, unknown to the public.

In June 2023, Aspyr confirmed that plans for the DLC’s release had indeed been scrapped, with co-CEO Ted Saloch later explaining: “Aspyr believed it would be able to release the content, but a third party objected and Aspyr was unable to do so.”
The situation sparked major frustration among fans and even led to a lawsuit accusing Aspyr of false advertising.

Now, as reported by Stephen Totilo at Game File, new details have emerged outlining the reasons behind the DLC’s cancellation.

A new Aspyr sale is up and running on the Nintendo eShop, and various titles have hit new low prices, including Tomb Raider 1-3 Remastered. There’s lots of Star Wars representation here as well – Star Wars: Bounty Hunter and Star Wars: Episode I: Jedi Power Battles are also at their lowest asking prices yet.

The full roundup of deals is as follows:

Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition

Aspyr is dropping a massive surprise today as the publisher just revealed Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition for Nintendo Switch 2 and Switch. Not only that, but the game is out today on both platforms.

Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition marks the first time the 2013 game will be playable on a Nintendo console. It comes with the main game, all previously released downloadable content (including six bonus outfits for Lara, eight online multiplayer maps, and four multiplayer characters), support for online multiplayer, and digital versions of the Dark Horse comic Tomb Raider: The Beginning, the mini-art book Tomb Raider: The Art of Survival, and the “Final Hours of Tomb Raider” developer video series.

Those waiting for Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic 2 and Plants vs. Zombies: Battle for Neighborville to be fixed on Nintendo Switch 2 will be happy to hear that they’re now both in working order. Download the latest updates to ensure that they’re running properly.

Both were previously broken on the console. Some Nintendo Switch 1 titles with issues on Switch 2 work, but may have specific issues. It was a different situation for these two titles though as Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic 2 and Plants vs. Zombies: Battle for Neighborville were previously said to be unsupported.

Dungeons & Dragons Neverwinter Nights 2 Enhanced Edition update

Aspyr has started distribution of the first update for Dungeons & Dragons: Neverwinter Nights 2: Enhanced Edition. Nintendo Switch players can access it now.

Various aspects have been touched up, including the gameplay, UI, camera, and more. Tons of bugs have been fixed as part of this.

The full rundown is as follows:

Aspyr and Edios Montreal have just announced Deus Ex Remastered. The game will be making its way to the Nintendo Switch on February 5, 2025.

Deus Ex Remastered takes the classic original from the year 2000, and gives it a new visual and mechanical coat of paint while still maintaining fidelity to the original’s style. 

Here’s an overview of the game:
