Fatal Frame: Maiden of Black Water, which first debuted on Wii U, will soon be appearing on Switch. The original lineup of costumes has been altered a bit, and while we won’t be seeing the Zero Suit Samus or Zelda costumes, there are new looks for Yuri, Miu and Ren.

Here’s the full lineup:

Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity

Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity takes place 100 years before The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. Since it’s set well behind in the past, we’re able to see what the world was like before a good part of it was left in ruins.

This presented an interesting challenge to the Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity developers. The team had to go back to the drawing board and imagine what the world would have been originally like.

Ninja Gaiden: Master Collection

In a recent issue of Switch Player, Team Ninja boss Fumihiko Yasuda spoke about Ninja Gaiden: Master Collection in-depth, including the version made for Nintendo’s console specifically.

At one point, the magazine asked about about concessions that needed to be made. Yasuda highlighted the importance of response during gameplay – which is key for the fast-paced action of Ninja Gaiden. As such, Team Ninja made some compromises with resolution on Switch “in order to prioritize processing speed”.

Yasuda explained:
