Update (5/26): FIFA 2020 has also been listed by Amazon UK, and is even up for pre-order here.

Original (5/22): EA will be bringing FIFA 20 to Switch, according to a listing on Amazon. An official announcement should be made within the next couple of weeks.

After taking several years off on Nintendo systems, FIFA finally returned with FIFA 18 for Switch. This will be the third year in a row that the series will be appearing on the console. FIFA 19 made a number of improvements over the previous version, so here’s hoping that the trend continues with this year’s iteration.

EA and Respawn launched their free-to-play battle royale game Apex Legends at the start of February. Right after that, we heard that the team was interested in having the game on Switch, but there was nothing they could take about at the time.

Respawn project lead Drew McCoy has now addressed the Switch discussion once again. As part of a new Wired feature, McCoy acknowledged all of the requests about wanting to play the game on Nintendo’s console. However, no promises can be made and the team doesn’t have anything to announce at this time.

Rumors emerged a few years ago that Criterion was asked to make a new F-Zero game on Wii U for Nintendo. Alex Ward, the studio’s founder who left back in 2014 for his own company Three Fields Entertainment, indicated soon after that the talks weren’t serious. During last week’s episode of the Game Informer Show, he clarified the situation once and for all.

Update (3/14): Coldwood has now followed up and has said that there will not be a physical version in North America (thanks JPSWITCHMANIA). If you’re interested in a copy, you’ll need to place an order with a retailer such as Amazon UK – which ships to the states despite what the page says.

Original (3/13): After it was announced in the latest Nintendo Direct, pre-orders for Unravel Two opened in Europe. We quickly found out that the game would be available physically in PAL regions. But what about North America?

Thankfully, Unravel Two will be receiving the same treatment stateside. Developer Coldwood Interactive has confirmed that there are plans to offer the title physically in North America. Since Unravel Two launches on March 22 though, there isn’t much time for retailers to get everything in order in time for launch.
