evil dead the game switch

When Evil Dead: The Game was announced for Switch at the end of 2020, it was planned for release the following year. However, it was delayed to February 2022 last August. There was then another delay just a few weeks ago with the game moving to May.

It now seems that Evil Dead: The Game has been pushed back even further, but only on Switch. Publisher Saber Interactive and Boss Team Games shared the latest information today, stating that while it’s arriving on May 13 for PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X / S, Xbox One, and PC, the title “is scheduled for release on Nintendo Switch in the future.”

Saber Interactive and Boss Team Games are once again delaying the release of Evil Dead: The Game. It is now slated to release on May 13, 2022, while a trailer and pre-order information for the game will release this February.

The team is delaying the game to further polish it “in order to deliver the best possible experience”.

The official statement for the delay reads:

World War Z update 1.0.7

World War Z received a new update on Switch this week, bringing the game to version 1.0.7. It’s a notable patch as it includes support for gyroscope motion controls, graphics preferences, and more.

Below are the full patch notes for the World War Z version 1.0.7 update:

Redout 2

In partnership with Saber Interactive, 34BigThings today unveiled a sequel to its racer Redout, aptly named Redout 2. The game will arrive on Switch sometime in 2022.

Redout 2 is another arcade-esque experience “where racing through the dystopian wastelands of a semi-abandoned Earth is one of the galaxy’s most popular sports.” It’ll feature both a single-player campaign as well as competitive multiplayer. That’s on top of “deep control systems, robust hovership customization, and a killer soundtrack”.

Circus Electrique

Publisher Saber Interactive and developer Zen Studios today unveiled Circus Electrique, a game that features a mix of story-driven RPG, tactics, and circus management gameplay presented with a steampunk twist. It’s currently planned for 2022.

Here’s an overview of the game’s premise:

Crysis 2 3 Remastered 1.2.0 update

world war z comparison

A new comparison video has come in for the Switch version of World War Z, putting it up against the PS4 release. Another outlet such as Digital Foundry may publish a more in-depth technical analysis later on, but YouTuber ElAnalistaDeBits has shared some early findings. It looks like Saber has done an admirable job, though changes and cuts were made on Switch.

As far as resolution is concerned, you’re getting 720p in both docked and portable modes from the Switch version of World War Z. ElAnalistaDeBits notes that there’s heavy temporal anti-aliasing when playing on a television. Frame rate comes in at 30 FPS.
