Bethesda

The Elder Scrolls: Blades was originally planned to arrive on Switch this fall. The season is just about over though, as is 2019. It makes sense then that Bethesda has pushed back the release to early 2020.

In a blog post, Bethesda mentioned that the delay has come about “amidst all the other changes we’re making to Blades”. The extra time will allow the team to “deliver the polished gameplay our fans deserve”.

Bethesda’s full words:

Bethesda has shared information on a new 1.0.7 update for Wolfenstein: Youngblood. The patch will be issued “soon” on Switch.

As part of the update, a new Treasure Hunt sidequest has been added. There are also new abilities, Pep Signals, and skins to access.

Here’s the full rundown:

The Elder Scrolls: Blades

At E3 this year, Bethesda announced a reworked port of their mobile title, The Elder Scrolls: Blades, for Nintendo Switch. The upcoming game will have many new features including button controls, PvP, seamless pick-up and play between devices, and much more.

We were able to catch up with Craig Lafferty and Matt Carofano (project lead and art director on Blades, respectively) earlier this year for an interview on the upcoming title. We we asked them questions about Switch’s new features, in-depth aspects they haven’t talked about yet, and many more questions that fans want to know.

Check out our transcript below:

Doom Eternal

Bethesda has readied a new Doom Eternal trailer promoting the fact that fans can pre-order the game (with goodies) and that a Deluxe Edition is available. Check out the video below.

Bethesda has issued a new trailer for the re-release of Doom 64, which is coming to Switch in March. Give it a look below.

Doom Eternal

Bethesda and id Software have shared some significant news about Doom Eternal today. The major headline is that the game is delayed, and will no longer launch in November as originally scheduled.

The initial release for Doom Eternal is now set for March 20, 2020. However, the Switch version is now said to be coming later, and no new date has been announced.

In other news, Doom 64 will now be a pre-order bonus for Doom Eternal. Additionally, Invasion Mode will be made available “shortly after launch”.

Bethesda uploaded a new video this week highlighting the 1.0.5 update for Wolfenstein: Youngblood. Get a look at it below for a closer look at upcoming features and balance changes.

Best Buy has revealed a new pre-order bonus for Doom Eternal. If you reserve the game, you’ll receive the steelbook pictured above.

Note that the steelbook seems to be for something like a CD or Blu-ray rather than a Switch game cartridge. With that in mind, it has a metal exterior and has artwork on the exterior and interior.

You can pre-order Doom Eternal on Best Buy here. Those that reserve the game will also be given $10 in Best Buy credit.

Bethesda has announced that it will be updating Doom and Doom II for Switch with a new round of improvements. In-game lighting and audio will now more closely match the originals. Additionally, performance will be improved.

Bethesda will have more information about these patches in the future. We’ll let you know when more details are available.
