Nintendo share Splatoon 3 details, plus is Switch piracy on the up?

Web version · Unsubscribe

Splatoon 3 Direct — A 25-minute presentation running through what you can expect from the next entry in the Splatoon series, which arrives next month. There's details on new stages, game modes, weapons, character customization, DLC plans, and more. A new 'Tableturf Battle' mode is also highlighted here - it seems to be a fairly involved card game, which I honestly think would work well as a standalone mobile 'thing'. (Finally, Nintendo almost made this video available a day earlier than planned - oops.)

Kirby's Dream Buffet: Overview Trailer — A three-minute video sharing a closer look at this Fall Guys-alike. Looks cute, but I sure do wish the multiplayer was open to more than just four at once. It's out next week, and is priced at a fair fifteen bucks — I've said it before though, I think this would have been a great NSO Expansion Pack subscriber perk.

Xenoblade Chronicles 3's release feels like the Switch is teetering on the cusp of a real piracy problem — Playing Switch games on 'other' devices ain't anything new, but the author notes that the recent release of Xenoblade Chronicles 3 marks what feels like a curious "shift in the scale of the conversation".

Your foot will save the World in Soccer Story, an Open-World RPG coming to console and PC — This looks lovely, and the dev said us European's can call it Football Fable. 😄

REVIEW Lost in Play — "an outstanding puzzle adventure".

Aran Suddi // The Sixth Axis

REVIEW Cleo — A Pirate's Tale — "Lean, light, and pleasingly presented, this is a perfect snack on the Switch".
