Pocketpair CEO Takuru Mizobe told VGC the Switch 2 is "a really amazing platform" and that the studio would welcome talks about bringing Palworld to Switch.

Nintendo has announced a roughly 15-minute Indie World presentation for this afternoon, 14:00 UK time, which is 16:00 SAST. It's the second Indie World of the year, so expect a mix of new reveals and possibly a shadow-drop or two.

Korea's ratings board has classified a string of classic Capcom games, including Ghosts 'n Goblins, Captain Commando, Knights of the Round and The King of Dragons, which points to a new collection. Nothing announced yet.
That's roughly a quarter of the company. The Voluntary Exit Offer covers eligible staff in Canada, India, the UK and the US, after heavy AI spending. It lands in a year when Xbox has already cut thousands of jobs and closed or sold studios, though Xbox boss Asha Sharma insists "Xbox is not for sale".
Warhorse confirmed unauthorised access to its systems and company data and is working with security specialists. It hasn't said what was taken. It comes less than a week after Capcom's Capcom ID data breach.
Capcom's half-year results show only 7.6% of game sales came from physical copies, and it expects digital to pass 95% next quarter. Back-catalogue titles drove its best-ever first half, with Devil May Cry 5 outselling Onimusha: Way of the Sword last quarter.
