The Switch will get first crack at an arcade shooter that harkens back to the early days of aerial combat.

I can see clearly now, the rain is gone.

Pretty sure the date for this should actually say February 21, given how many Friday releases there are this week. And it'll be a fighting Friday, with the headliners of Under Night In-Birth Exe:Late[cl-r] (coming soon to an EVO near you) and the Double Dragon/Kunio bundle serving as headliners, unless...

On a week in which a live action Sonic the Hedgehog movie launches, can we really talk about love?

Despite the best efforts of Nintendo to bring down the eShop again on Tuesday night / Wednesday morning with Pokémon Home, the eShop has updated this week with a motley crew of releases. Although The Snack World is finally coming to the West so we can try to see Level-5's latest forced meme, perhaps the most interesting release of this Valentine's week is Florence from Annapurna Interactive.

It wasn't official before, but now two people can get bloody.

If the eShop is a tad slow right now, this is probably why.

The hook is that everything (and we mean everything) can be Mr. Wolf's weapon, be it sword, barrel, or carrot. The flow of levels is evocative of Hotline Miami, especially with the quick die-retry mechanic.

Choose your system wisely.
