Endless Ocean Luminous

May 1: A new wave of Nintendo Switch Online user icons have just been added to the service.

Players will be able to trade Platinum coins for icons based on Endless Ocean Luminous, which releases this week. 4 total waves of icons will be releasing for the game.

Nintendo just issued a first update for Endless Ocean Luminous, which brings the game to version 1.0.1.

One of the primary reasons for the patch is to address an issue involving the completion of No. 55 on the Mystery Board. On top of that though, the team has made some other adjustments such as making the camera direction displayed on the map and the orange circle for biometric signs easier to see.

Here’s the full rundown:

Endless Ocean Luminous review

System: Switch
Release date: May 2, 2024
Developer: Akira
Publisher: Nintendo


As thoroughly as humanity has managed to explore the surface of our planet up through the present day, it’s a well-known fact that the vast majority of Earth’s oceans remain unexplored. And while plenty of games have sought to make tangible the feeling of exploring an underwater realm, Nintendo’s Endless Ocean series remains one of only a handful that focuses on our planet’s biology first and foremost. It’s been over a decade since the last game in the series, Endless Ocean: Blue World, released on the Wii; that game has held a special place in my heart ever since, so I was excited to see Endless Ocean Luminous announced for the Switch. In some ways, it manages to bring the series forward in exactly the ways I had hoped – its expanded focus on multiplayer helps the sprawling seas feel a little more lively and dynamic, and enhanced controls and visuals make the act of exploring more pleasant than ever. Unfortunately, as an overall experience, Endless Ocean Luminous is a significant step backward from its predecessor in many ways, resulting in a package that feels significantly shallower than I had hoped.

Endless Ocean Luminous just launched today, but players can already look forward to one of the game’s first big activities known as Event Dives.

Event Dives are special online events that take place online. While it’s active, players will be able to meet creatures that are typically difficult to find. These include unusual schools of fish or other kinds of sea life.
