Following a teaser suggesting as much earlier this year, it has been revealed that Diablo III will be launching on Nintendo Switch later this year. The news prematurely surfaced ahead of Blizzard's official announcement scheduled for tomorrow, dropping all the details before being deleted. The release will include the original game, as well as an expansion and more.
We haven't seen a ton of different console bundles in the Switch's short lifespan so far, but today Nintendo announced a new one. This bundle is destined for Walmart, where it will be an exclusive beginning next month. It offers some decent value for the money as well, assuming you're interested with the games it comes packed with.
In Super Smash Bros Ultimate, Luigi Mario is dead. But there's good news you can share with all your distraught friends: Luigi Mario is only kind of dead. Not all the way dead. He's dead sorta like how comic book characters die sometimes and come back to life through some hereto unknown force. Only this time it has to do with ghosts.
This week there's a GameStop deal in which the Xbox One X can be had for around $200 - sort of. There's a rather big proviso here, and it involves you paying with more than just money. Assuming you're in the market for an Xbox One X, all you need to do is give GameStop your old (yet basically new) console and a couple Benjamins and you're good to go!
For Nintendo Switch owners, perhaps one of the most exciting announcements of the year so far has been Dark Souls: Remastered. The Dark Souls series has never had a presence on Nintendo consoles, so this is a big deal for Switch owners. Unfortunately, the Switch version of Dark Souls: Remastered was delayed at the eleventh hour, and at the time, Bandai Namco didn't give us a new release date.
Unless you're planning to buy all of your Nintendo Switch games on physical media, purchasing extra storage for your console is basically a must. Though the Switch is shaping up to be a great platform, one of Nintendo's biggest oversights with it is only including 32GB of internal storage. When you consider that the OS takes up a portion of that already small storage, you don't really have a lot of space to work with out of the box.
QuakeCon 2018 is officially underway, and perhaps the biggest part of Bethesda's keynote address was the reveal of DOOM Eternal gameplay. We were first introduced to the game back at E3 2018, but what was announced then amounted to nothing more than a teaser. Today, however, we received our first real look at the game, and it's looking just as gruesome and action-packed as the game that preceded it.
For as close as we are to Nintendo Switch Online's launch, there are still some crucial details that are unknown. One such detail is Switch Online's release date, as thus far, Nintendo has only said that the service will launch in September. Today, Nintendo narrowed that release window down a bit, but it still hasn't gotten as specific as many people would probably like.
Nintendo has detailed all of the games arriving on the eShop over the next few days, and there are some big releases in store for the Nintendo Switch. Chief among these new releases for many people will likely be Okami HD, which has certainly been one of the more enduring titles throughout this generation and the last. This week, the focus is entirely on Switch, as the 3DS and Wii U aren't getting any new games.
We were expecting a lot of new information on Super Smash Bros Ultimate during today's Nintendo Direct, and it certainly didn't disappoint. Nintendo and series creator Masahiro Sakurai managed to pack a lot into its relatively short running time, covering everything from new stages and characters to new assist trophies and game modes. In case you missed it, here's everything that was discussed during today's show.
Just a few minutes ago, Nintendo premiered a new Direct that was centered entirely around Super Smash Bros Ultimate. While we were expecting Nintendo to give a broad overview of the additions it's making to the game, many of us were also counting on some new fighter reveals as well. Those who had their fingers crossed for new fighters had their wishes granted, as Nintendo revealed five of them by the time everything was said and done.
Super Smash Bros Ultimate was a major part of Nintendo's E3 2018 presentation, but there's still plenty we don't know about the game. That might change later this week, as Nintendo has announced a new Direct that will be at least mostly focused on Super Smash Bros Ultimate. Whether or not that means we'll see Nintendo reveal some new fighters is anyone's guess, given the game's already ridiculously big roster.
