Golden Sun & Golden Sun: The Lost Age join Nintendo Switch Online next week

Details surrounding Nintendo's next piece of hardware have been few and far between, with only rumors, leaks, and the opinions of industry analysts to go off right now. We know that Nintendo probably won't rock the boat too much due to the overwhelming success of the Switch, and industry analysts have predicted that the console will most likely be an "iteration" rather than a drastic change in design.

The Last of Us Part II’s about to be seen in a whole new way. Grounded 2, a making-of documentary for The Last of Us Part II, premieres next week.

Things are looking rosy over at Nintendo, as the gaming giant has announced it will be releasing a new pair of pastel pink Joy-Cons for the Nintendo Switch.

A quest item named the Key of Kings must be foundto open the Palace of King Darius in .The Palace is one of the last locations Sargon needs to visit before the end of the game, but it is impossible to reach without the Key. You'll have to backtrack through past areas you've visited to obtain this important item.

One of the rooms in the Hyrcanian Forest area of contains a statue puzzle that can be quite difficult to solve. A riddle provides some clues to arranging three figures in certain directions for a rare reward. Those who interpret this clue correctly can unlock an item used to upgrade Sargon's weapons for their continuing journey throughout the Citadel.

The best tool in Sargon's arsenal in is an Athra Surge, a strong technique that unleashes the Immortal's channeled spirit into various attacks. These moves all have unique properties designed for different encounters with enemies across the Citadel. However, the limited amount of Surges you can equip makes some abilities better to have than others.

The best upgrades you can get in help enhance many of Sargon's items and weapons to deal with the first big challenges faced on Mount Qaf. A particular improvement may change a difficult boss fight into a much easier encounter. Since many upgrades are very cheap toward the start of the game, you may have a hard time choosing one.

A growing number of video game developers are now quietly working on projects for Nintendo's unannounced Switch 2.

As you pursue Anahita into the Upper City of the Citadel in , you will be stopped by a Chakram puzzle with two lion statues that may be difficult to solve. This platforming section relies on the alternate form of Menolias' Bow that transforms the weapon into a spinning blade. This Chakram can interact with the world to open up new paths, but must be used carefully for this puzzle.

Two of the best role-playing games ever made have been added to Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack. These are Golden Sun and Golden Sun: The Lost Age, now playable on the Nintendo Switch for subscribers after launching on Game Boy Advance.

Time Powers are unique abilities in that help Sargon on his adventures. Each Time Power lets him manipulate time just the right way to unlock previously blocked paths or confront more significant threats. By the end of the game, you will have six exciting time powers you can wield to rescue Prince Ghassan.

Nintendo Switch Online Expansion Pack members can play Golden Sun and Golden Sun: The Lost Age as of today. These iconic GBA RPGs are the first new arrivals to the service since December, when Nintendo Switch Online surprised fans with three N64 games: Jet Force Gemini, 1080 Snowboarding, and Harvest Moon 64.
