If you’re a fan of superhero games, you’ve probably been looking forward to this week’s eShop update for some time: the Batman Arkham games are finally arriving on the Switch.
Or, at least, three of them are. But those three games — Arkham Asylum, Arkham City, and Arkham Knight — are three of the best superhero games ever made. It’ll be interesting to see how well they run on the Switch, but given recent experiences with games like Red Dead Redemption and Borderlands 3, there’s reason to be optimistic.
There are plenty of other fun-looking games arriving on the Switch this week — including Dragon Quest’s take on monster-collecting and monster-hunting, DRAGON QUEST MONSTERS: The Dark Prince, so see the full list below and also check out Nintendo’s updated Game Store list, here.
This week’s Nintendo Download includes the following content:
- Nintendo eShop on Nintendo Switch
- Batman: Arkham Trilogy – Become Gotham City’s ultimate protector in the shadows with Rocksteady’s critically acclaimed trilogy, headed to the Nintendo Switch system in one complete package – including all DLC. The stealthy skirmishes of Batman: Arkham Asylum escalate into the devastating conspiracy against the inmates in Batman: Arkham City and culminate in the ultimate showdown for the future of Gotham in Batman: Arkham Knight. Glide through the streets, grapple onto rooftops and soar across the skyline of Gotham and Arkham City in the ultimate and complete Batman experience coming to Nintendo Switch Dec. 1.
- DRAGON QUEST MONSTERS: The Dark Prince – Follow Psaro, a cursed prince, and his companion Rose as they travel through the demon realm of Nadiria. Explore and scout monsters, freely combine raised monsters to create more powerful allies and take on enemies with your powerful dream team through changing seasons. DRAGON QUEST MONSTERS: The Dark Prince comes to Nintendo Switch on Dec. 1. Pre-orders are available now in Nintendo eShop and in the My Nintendo Store on Nintendo.com.
