Square Enix unveiled Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy during its E3 2021 presentation. There was no word on it coming to Switch at the time, but just a couple of days later, it was announced for the console during the latest Nintendo Direct.

Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy continues the trend of cloud games on Switch. Rather than having it run natively, if you’re playing on the system, you’ll essentially be doing so through the internet.

Sonic creator and Balan Wonderworld director Yuji Naka seemingly gone from Square Enix

Posted on 3 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments

After joining the company and creating just a single game there, Yuji Naka is apparently no longer with Square Enix. Naka, who directed the title and is often attributed as the creator of Sonic the Hedgehog, updated his LinkedIn and Facebook pages to show that he has moved on. It appears that Naka left Square Enix on April 30.

Naka told IGN last year that Balan Wonderworld was his “once change” to create a full-scale platformer.

Balan Wonderworld launched on Switch this past March. Unfortunately, the critical reception was negative.
