Launch

A few months ago Bloober Team and Aspyr announced that their horror game Layers of Fear will have a Switch port. However, besides revealing the fact that we’re going to get a port of the game for Nintendo’s hybrid console. There weren’t any other details regarding what it would have or when the game would launch.

However, the guys at Bloober team decided to make an announcement recently. Along a new trailer for the Layers of Fear port, Bloober announced that the port will finally come to the Nintendo Switch during Early 2018.

The name of the port for the Nintendo Switch will be called Layers of Fear: Legacy. This port will have the base game and some important features that will be using the Switch’s hardware. One of the biggest appeals is a complete UI overhaul.

However, there will be some exploiting of the console’s most important features. As such, we’ll have special features such as dynamic rumble, motion based controls and even support for the Switch’s touchscreen.

Additionally, Layers of Fear: Legacy will also include the “Inheritance” DLC, which allows the player to play as a new character and view the events of the game from a different perspective.

It’s kind of odd to see Layers of Fear getting a port to the Nintendo Switch. Especially considering that there’s a far more recent option (>Observer) on the market. Console and PC players got to experience the psychological horror game since 2016.

However, that doesn’t mean that this game isn’t worth picking up even today. The game currently sits at a ‘very positive’ user review score on its Steam page. Many people who appreciate art and the psychological horror that games like Silent Hill 2 have brought to the table also praised this game.

Whether or not this is something that sells the game besides the additional features, Switch players will definitely have a blast while experiencing the story of a painter with mental problems.

I always wanted to be a journalist who listens. The Voice of the Unspoken and someone heavily involved in the gaming community. From playing as a leader of a competitive multi-branch team to organizing tournaments for the competitive scene to being involved in a lot of gaming communities. I want to keep moving forward as a journalist.

This author has consistently praised the realistic portrayal of tennis in TopSpin 4. After more than a decade, we are thrilled to witness the release of TopSpin 2K25, which expands upon the success of its renowned predecessor. This gameplay video provides a comprehensive overview of the features discussed in our recent preview while also incorporating relevant footage to enhance understanding.

The series’ swing system sets it apart from arcade-style games like Virtua Tennis, as it requires players to charge up their shots in a different way. In order to succeed, timing is crucial, and fortunately, a new meter above your player will assist you in achieving that. Surfaces have their own distinct characteristics, such as clay, where you’ll experience a noticeable amount of sliding.

The game ensures that every player has a distinct set of animations, adding a touch of individuality to each competitor. The courts, found in all Grand Slams, possess a remarkable amount of individuality and charm. It is mentioned in the video that with each in-game season, players can expect a plethora of additional content, such as animation packs. This indicates that there will be plenty to anticipate even after the game’s initial release.
