“I felt a lot of pressure with this one”.

Resident Evil Requiem, the latest mainline title in Capcom’s survival horror franchise, is out now on the Switch 2. It tells an intimate tale that takes us right back to where it all started: Raccoon City. Joining us on the journey, of course, is series veteran Leon Kennedy, who’s dealing with a deadly infection of his very own.

Last week, we sat down to speak with Nick Apostolides, who, after his excellent portrayals as Leon in Resident Evil 2 and 4, returns as everybody’s favourite loveable agent. We discuss his approach to playing a much older Leon, how it feels for the character to finally wield his own chainsaw, and more.

Out today.

All the way back in 2017 (which, yes, is nearly a decade ago now), a curious title called Bulb Boy made its way to the Switch eShop. Available from July of the Switch’s launch year, it was one of the earliest eShop titles for the new system at the time, and now it’s finally got itself a sequel.

Bulb Boy 2: Jar of Despair is available today on the Switch eShop and promises to expand upon the original point and click experience with visuals inspired by ’90s style cartoons. While the original had a consistent green tone to the overall presentation, this one looks all the more vibrant thanks to a much wider array of colours.

Back in 2021, you may recall the release of Ember Lab’s celebrated Kena: Bridge of Spirits on PS5 – perhaps you even played it on Sony’s consoles or PC.

Konami confirms.

The studios behind the upcoming release Castlevania: Belmont’s Curse have made a name for themselves with releases such as Dead Cells and The Rogue Prince of Persia, but this new title based on Konami’s famous IP won’t be the same type of game.

Speaking to The Verge, Konami’s head of communications for the Americas has reiterated this game is a “2D action-exploration” title, further stating it’s “not a roguelike or roguelite game”. Here’s the full exchange:

Well it’s about time.

Ubisoft has finally acknowledged the terminally leaked remake/remaster of Assassin’s Creed Black Flag, appropriately subtitled ‘Resynced‘.

In a franchise update, Head of Content Jean Guesdon provided news on projects Hexe and Invictus, the former being a proper narrative driven mainline entry in the series, and the latter a PvP title from the For Honor team at Ubisoft Montreal. It sounds like Hexe is still quite a way off, with the team looking to “be quiet for a while longer”.
