Gotham Knights has been rated by ESRB for Nintendo Switch

Blizzard Entertainment has laid off a number of employees from its Hearthstone team.

Red Dead Redemption 2 may launch on Nintendo Switch if a ratings board is to be believed.

A Nintendo Switch version of Red Dead Redemption 2 has been spotted on the Brazilian ratings board’s website.

Red Dead Redemption 2 could be in line for a surprise launch on the Nintendo Switch, as per a classification rating for the game in Brazil.

There was a real surprise when Rockstar Games unveiled they were bringing Red Dead Redemption back. However, some fans were surprised that this port would be coming to the Nintendo Switch. While the port was relatively well received, it was thought that you would have to continue this franchise with a game on a competitor platform. Red Dead Redemption 2 is readily available to pick up right now on PC, PlayStation 4, and the Xbox One platforms. However, a new rating revealed that a port might be coming to the Nintendo Switch platform. 

The Nintendo Switch is long past the traditional lifespan for a console and its technological limitations are rendering it unable to stand up to current generation systems for new games. Titles such as have struggled in making versions that can run on the outdated system, and Nintendo itself appears to be focusing heavily on remakes and remasters. As beloved as the Switch has been, and with as popular of a console as it continues to be, the next system will need to include many impressive features if it hopes to see similar numbers in sales.

Sometimes, gamers must ask out loud, “Who asked for this?” Usually, those moments come when a video game arrives that quite simply doesn’t live up to the hype or the long development time it took to get made. When Gotham Knights was released last year after a long wait, many gamers indeed wondered who asked for a title like that. While the concept was good, the execution was lacking, leading to many woes, including optimization across all platforms. Now, a new rating again implies that the Nintendo Switch will get a version of the title.

The next game in Square Enix’s SaGa franchise has been announced. Titled SaGa Emerald Beyond, the game was unveiled during the recent Nintendo Direct. SaGa Emerald Beyond is slated for release on the Nintendo Switch some time in 2024. Check out the trailer below.

During today’s Nintendo Direct presentation, upcoming and remakes were unveiled with trailers.

With the Switch now presumably in the final stages of its active lifecycle, Nintendo is filling out its release schedule with a number of remakes and remasters of older classics, from Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door to Luigi’s Mansion 2 HD. Another remake was also recently announced that might not have quite the same mainstream appeal, but will surely some excited.

Nintendo has announced F-Zero 99, the first new game in the series in nearly two decades.

Nintendo arguably saved the best for last with its latest Direct, with what seems to be a remaster for Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. Developed by Intelligent Systems and released in 2004 for the Nintendo GameCube, the remaster is coming to Nintendo Switch in 2024. Check out the first trailer below.
