They discuss standout announcements like a brand-new 2D Castlevania from the creators of Dead Cells, Metal Gear Solid Master Collection Vol. 2, the return of Rayman for his 30th anniversary, and the revival of Legacy of Kain. They then dive into Ubisoft’s financial updates for Assassin’s Creed, including the Switch 2 version of Assassin’s Creed Shadows, the leaked Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag remake art book listing from Amazon UK, and the growing issue of licensed games continuing to be delisted.Between surprise revivals, next-gen ports, and worrying delistings, the future of Nintendo’s release schedule just got a lot more complicated—and a lot more interesting.This and more on Nintendo Pow Block!Join our Communities:Join the ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Boss Rush Network Community Discord⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.
