Whatâs happening on the eShop this week? As the end of the year approaches, thereâs no shortage of great content to play on the Switch, with this weekâs highlights being Batman: Arkham Trilogy and Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Prince.
The Arkham series of games began in 2009 with Arkham Asylum. This dark, critically acclaimed outing sparked several sequels, including 2011âs Arkham City and 2015âs Arkham Knight. Although Arkham Origins is missing from this collection, itâs still a hefty pack of Gotham Cityâs finest action.
Meanwhile, Dragon Quest Monsters returns with The Dark Prince, in which you travel the lands to collect, train, and combine monsters. As your allies become more powerful, youâll be able to take on stronger enemies on you quest through the demon realm of Nadiria.
The Black Friday sales continue this weekend, with some great discounts on offer until December 4. Check out whatâs on offer and let us know about your bargain finds; who knows, we might even discuss it on the next episode of the Pure Nintendo Podcast!
