After what feels like a long week, the weekend is finally here! Whatās happening on the Nintendo Switch eShop? Star Wars: Hunters for one, along with an update to Hogwarts Legacy, plus sales, activities, and a long list of new games to inspire us.
We mentioned Star Wars: Hunters last week, which debuted on June 4. This free-to-play title pits teams of four rogue warriors against each other in an arena fight to the death. The game takes a wide cast of characters from Jawas and bounty hunters to Sith warriors and Stormtroopers. Youāll also earn points for playing to level up your characters and sharpen your skills. Itās a fun time, and we discuss our thoughts on the upcoming episode of the Pure Nintendo Podcast, so stay tuned!
Meanwhile, itās time to return to Hogwarts to see whatās brewing in this magic-fuelled game. A new update brings with it a photo mode and other features to check out. Let us know your fave Hogwarts moment.
If you like JRPGs as much as we do, youāll be pleased to know that pre-orders are now open for the upcoming Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance. The game heads our way soon ā June 14, to be precise ā so if you want to be prepared, best get those orders in.
Then thereās the sales. This weekās Super Happy Fun Slide, I mean, Mega Extreme Fun Sale, packs a lot of good deals into the mix. Mario, LEGO, Hogwarts, Red Dead Redemption, Fae Farm, and Advance Wars are all on sale ā just to mention a few.
