Guilty Gear Strive reveals Season Pass 5 characters Jam Kuradoberi and Robo-Ky, 2.00 update news
Posted on 2 weeks ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Arc System Works unveiled its plans for Guilty Gear Strive today, including news about DLC characters Jam Kuradoberi and Robo-Ky plus an update on the version 2.00 update.
Jam Kuradoberi kicks off Season Pass 5 on April 9, 2026. Robo-Ky will follow this summer. After that, two more DLC characters will be released in Winter 2026 and Spring 2027. One thing we’ll note is that it’s possible we’ll be seeing the DLC later in the Nintendo Switch version – meaning the April 9 date for Jam Kuradoberi may not apply here.
Bloodstained: The Scarlet Engagement listed for Nintendo Switch, plus an unannounced 505 Games Switch 2 title
Posted on 2 weeks ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch, Switch 2 | 0 comments
Bloodstained: The Scarlet Engagement has been listed for Nintendo Switch alongside an unannounced Switch 2 title from 505 Games.
The Scarlet Engagement, a sequel to the original, was previously announced last year. Although there wasn’t any news about a Nintendo release, the latest discovery suggests that we’ll be getting it on Switch at the very least. It’d be somewhat surprising to see it on Nintendo Switch rather than Switch 2, but it’s always possible that plans could change (or there was a mistake here).
