Secondly, the game can be played cooperatively by two players on one screen, though it’s important to note that it won’t be released on the original Nintendo Switch. However, through the GameShare function, you can engage in online co-op play with someone who owns the first console.

The announcement made clear that Final Fantasy 7 Remake Intergrade is set for both physical and digital distribution. Yet, details are yet to emerge about whether Intergrade will offer a Game Key or a complete physical version with all game content on one card. Notably, Intergrade encompasses both the main Remake and the Episode Intermission DLC expansion. On Xbox, it supports Play Anywhere functionality.

According to the recent Nintendo Direct presentation, Stardew Valley on the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2 will capitalize on the new console’s features and offer mouse control options. This could potentially provide a better gaming experience compared to traditional gamepad controls. Interestingly, the Switch 2 Joy-Con controllers can be used as mice in certain games, offering finer control for players.

Dragon Quest VII: Reimagined is a complete overhaul of the 2000 PlayStation game, sharing a likeness with Dragon Quest XI in terms of improved graphics. The narrative follows the adventures of a young hero hailing from tranquil Estard Island, accompanied by companions Kiefer and Maribel. Their discovery of ancient ruins grants them the power to traverse time, unveiling forgotten continents that were sealed away centuries ago. Players must address the calamities that caused these lands’ demise and bring them back to life in the current era, gradually piecing together the world one piece at a time.

Even though it was quite early, more than half a million individuals tuned into the livestream. The renowned Shigeru Miyamoto unveiled the Direct to discuss Nintendo’s plans for Mario’s 40th anniversary, including a sneak peek at the upcoming Super Mario Bros. movie, which has been officially titled “The Super Mario Galaxy Movie“. This movie is set to hit theaters in Spring 2026.

In many contemporary video games, you’ll find that shader compiling isn’t a novel concept. Typically, this process doesn’t take long, but sometimes, especially with certain game productions, it can stretch beyond anticipated timeframes. A notable example is the PC edition of The Last of Us, where the shader compilation process might unexpectedly prolong its loading times.

Back in February, Persona 3 Reload was launched on consoles and PCs as a complete remake of the original Persona 3. Since then, an expansion called Episode Aigis has been released.

Prior to its official unveiling, details about the Battle Royale (BR) mode had already been widely leaked from LABS’ game files. This was later confirmed in a tweet on September 10th. The initial information disclosed included features like the insta-kill circle and class system. Additionally, it was announced that BR mode would be added to LABS.

In simpler terms, if you’ve encountered that frustrating 50/50 chance in Genshin Impact’s banner system and ended up with Qiqi, a small undead character from Liyue, then you’re not alone. Qiqi is a topic of much discussion in the game, but often for less than ideal reasons. She’s an extremely powerful healer, but opinions among players are split about whether her advanced abilities (constellations) offer value for money, especially since she’s a high-tier character (5-star) that frequently shows up when you’re hoping for the limited-edition character instead.
