New Base Nintendo Switch Model Announced
Nintendo just recently announced a new version of their Switch console called the Switch Lite, which offers a cheaper version of the console that is exclusively for gaming on the go. Well, it looks like the company isn’t quite done making announcements, as they have now revealed a new version of the base model.
This new version of the base model will cost as much as the current base model does, though the main difference is the improved battery life. The current Switch model’s battery ranges from 2.5 to 6.5 hours depending on the kind of game you’re playing, whereas this new version ranges from 4.5 to 9 hours. The company even offers a game as an example, claiming that you’ll be able to play Zelda: Breath of The Wild for 5.5 hours with the new model compared to the 3 hours of the previous one.
An exact release date for this new version of the console hasn’t yet been revealed, though they are expected to be out at some point in August. They also announced new colors for their joy-con controllers, with dark blue, neon orange and neon purple being announced. These will be launching on October 4th, with a retail price set at $79.99.
The new version of the base Switch model with improved battery life will cost $299, and we’ll bring you more information on a release date as soon as it becomes available.
On October 25, 2023, THQ Nordic’s Alone in the Dark reboot will star Killing Eve’s Jodie Comer and Stranger Things’ David Harbour. Comer will play Emily Hartwood, while Harbour will play Edward Carnaby.
The demo, loosely based on the 1992 original, is available for download from the PS Store. This prologue, starring supporting character Grace Saunders, is inspired by Alone in the Dark 2’s Jack in the Dark demo and allows you to explore the Derceto Mansion.
The showcase didn’t focus on combat, but previous showings have shown a frantic over-the-shoulder shooter, and developer Pieces Interactive promises a variety of puzzles. Depending on how much guidance you want, you can adjust the difficulty.
We’re excited about the final product. Alone in the Dark hasn’t been respected in recent years, despite its huge influence. A compelling reboot that updates the 1992 classic looks to put the franchise back on track.
Warhammer Age of Sigmar: Realms of Ruin, a new real-time strategy game where players command one of four warring factions, is coming to PS5 in the grimdark future.
PlayStation’s strategy gaming renaissance makes us feel like we’re living in the best possible time for console gamers who love command. Realms of Ruin could be a cool addition if it succeeds. As fans know, Warhammer games are unfortunately inconsistent in quality, so we’ll reserve judgment until we see some gameplay.
Warhammer Age of Sigmar: Realms of Ruin: your thoughts? What do you think of Age of Sigmar’s controversial rebranding in general?
According to Metacritic, The Lord of the Rings: Gollum is the worst-rated game of 2023, setting a new low for AAA releases. OpenCritic’s story is similar. See our video or written review to understand why.
Only eFootball was more universally hated. Balan Wonderworld and Babylon’s Fall are other villains in that awful rogue’s gallery.
