The nostalgia-packed The Disney Afternoon Collection finally has a Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2 release date, and it’s bringing two more games for patient fans.

A Switch version of the bundle of ‘90s Disney video games was announced today after first launching for PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One back in 2017. Retro remaster developer Digital Eclipse has the original collection – which includes DuckTales, DuckTales 2, Chip ‘n Dale Rescue Rangers, Chip ‘n Dale Rescue Rangers 2, Darkwing Duck, and TaleSpin – set with a digital Switch release date of February 26, 2026, with Goof Troop and Bonkers packed in, too.

Both are Capcom games that made their way to the Super Nintendo Entertainment System in the ‘90s, and both will only be available on the Switch and Switch 2 versions of The Disney Afternoon Collection. Goof Troop sees Goofy and his son, Max, go on a swashbuckling co-op adventure to save Pete and PJ, while Bonkers follows Bonkers D. Bobcat as he solves crimes in Toontown.

It’s a bundle fit for the biggest fans of classic gaming from the House of Mouse, with the total game count now reaching eight. The February re-release will finally bring the bundle to Nintendo’s hybrid consoles, with access to soundtracks, a behind-the-scenes gallery, and rewind features, available, too. There are also Time Attack and Boss Rush modes for those looking to shake up that classic gameplay.

A Disney Afternoon Collection physical edition is also confirmed to be in development for those willing to wait until after the February digital release. Disney says the physical Switch release – which comes with the game cartridge, two sticker sheets, eight retro milk caps, and three collectible cards – is now available for pre-order and will ship “at a later date.”

The Disney Afternoon Collection launches digitally next month. For more, you can check out our 7/10 review from 2017.

“With three hits and three duds from Capcom/Disney years that you might remember with varying levels of fondness,” we said at the time, “the Disney Afternoon Collection is clearly aimed at children of the 90s. I have trouble seeing its appeal to anyone else. But if vintage duck-based platformers are your thing, grab a Capri Sun and a handful of Gushers and invite your friends over to play.”

Magic: The Gathering is all over the place in 2026, from Turtles to Star Trek, but Secrets of Strixhaven preorders are now live in the UK.

The set, which is getting its own prequel novel and includes a whopping five preconstructed Commander Decks and two Theme Decks, can be found on Amazon right now.

Here’s everything you can preorder right now, including Collector Boosters.

As with any MTG set, the Play Booster Pack is the cheapest way to open some cards. It’ll cost you £4.45 to preorder one, but there’s a nine-pack bundle for £48.45 or a box of 30 for £141.45.

Collector Boosters can’t be purchased on their own just yet, but it looks as though the Collector Booster Box may have already sold out.

Elsewhere, there’s a Draft Night boxed product for £86.45 (which includes one Collector Booster), as well as a pair of themed decks for Standard play: Eerie and Lifegain. Those are £19.99 each.

As we mentioned, there is not one, not two, but five Commander decks for this set – the most since Tarkir Dragonstorm last year.

• Silverquill Influence (White/Black)
• Prismari Artistry (Blue/Red)
• Winterbloom Pestilence (Black/Green)
• Lorehold Spirit (Red/White)
• Quandrix Unlimited (Green/Blue)

Whichever one you grab will include a 100-card deck to play right out of the box, and they cost £43.99 each. They might end up being put in a bundle, too, but there’s nothing live for that just yet.

Elden Ring: Nightreign is getting a tabletop RPG adaptation from Group SNE, the same team behind the tabletop RPG versions of Dark Souls, Elden Ring, and Armored Core 6.

This news was first spotted by Polygon having been shared by Kadokawa’s official Fujimi Dragon Book Editorial account on Twitter/X. According to the post, it’s set to be published soon, in spring of 2026.

There aren’t any further details as to what this campaign will entail, but as a Nightreign lover, I don’t find it too hard to imagine. Nightreign already has a wonderfully clear-cut class system, and the potential for different DMs to shuffle abilities, monsters, bosses, hazards, events, points of interest is extremely strong. Like the game itself, such a campaign could be extremely replayable as well.

There is a sneak peek of the Nightreign campaign coming in GM Warlock magazine, but unless you can read Japanese, this probably isn’t that useful to you. We also don’t even know that it will get a localization into English.

Group SNE is responsible for a number of tabletop campaigns, board and card games, and light novels, including the aforementioned tabletop games based on FromSoftware properties, as well as the entire Record of Lodoss War campaign setting and Sword World RPG, a tabletop game first published in ’89 that has since gone on to become a phenomenon in Japan.

I hope we see the Nightreign campaign make it to the USA, because Nightreign rips, dude. It’s probably one of the most addictive 7/10 games I’ve played in years, and the recent DLC has only managed to get its hooks in me even deeper. Sure, the new map is confounding, but once you’ve fallen off it 10 or 20 or 30 times, you really do get the hang of it.

Dispatch, the superhero workplace comedy made by Telltale veterans at AdHoc Studio, is out now on Nintendo Switch. But a number of excited new and returning players aren’t super happy about the release, as it turns out the game has been pretty aggressively censored on the system.

It’s been well-known since its release on other platforms that Dispatch is a game with signficant adult content. Some characters are fully or partially naked in various scenes, with their full anatomy on display. There are some sex scenes where characters make sounds associated with sex. Sometimes characters flip the bird at one another. For those who don’t want to see all this, there’s a censorship toggle in the settings that covers up the nudity and the middle fingers, and silences any unwanted sex noises. On most platforms, this is entirely optional and up to the player to turn on.

But not on Nintendo Switch. Earlier today, reports began to drop from reviewers of the Switch version that Dispatch’s censorship toggle is missing from the options on the platform. That’s because it’s permanently turned on (no pun intended). So all the censor bars and silence are just stuck that way, with no way to turn on the more mature version of the game.

Why? According to AdHoc, it’s because of Nintendo policies. “Different platforms have different content criteria, and submissions are evaluated individually,” the studio said in a statement shared with Eurogamer. “We worked with Nintendo to ensure the content within the title met the criteria to release on their platforms, but the core narrative and gameplay experience remains identical to the original release.”

This has understandably frustrated some people. A number of members of Dispatch online communities in places like Reddit and other social platforms have alternatingly expressed frustration with Nintendo for its policies, and AdHoc for bending to them so readily. While it’s true that other games in the past such as, notably, Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE and Fire Emblem Fates, have also been censored in various ways. But by comparison, Dispatch’s censorship is extremely blunt and distracting. Who wants giant black bars across the screen? Especially if you can’t turn them off?

What’s more, as some have pointed out, both Cyberpunk 2077 and The Witcher 3 are on Switch too. Both of those games have nudity, and neither has been censored in such a way, leading to questions about what makes Dispatch different. We’re reached out to Nintendo for comment.

Dispatch is amazing, as we determined in our 9/10 review of the game, calling it “a sharp-witted workplace comedy that charms with its smart dialogue choices, great writing, and lovably aggravating cast.” You can play it without big black censor bars on PC or PlayStation 5, but no Xbox version yet.

Riftbound landed late in 2025, and the general vibe around Riot’s League of Legends card game has been that it’s fun to play – it’s just not always easy to get hold of.

With an Origins restock dropping this week, the Riot storefront once again crashed out, leaving players frustrated in their attempts to get starter sets, decks, packs, and more.

While it remains to be seen if Riot can fix those teething issues from its first set, the good news is that there are four planned for 2026. Here’s everything coming to Riftbound this year.

February 13 – Spiritforged

Spiritforged will be the first post-launch set for Riftbound, and will likely give us a good idea of what to expect from sets going forward.

New this time around are mechanics like Equipment which can be attached to Units, Gold that can be spent, and new keywords like Quick-Draw, Repeat, and Weaponmaster.

As for new Legends, you’ll be able to grab cardboard versions of Azir, Draven, Ezreal, Fiora, Jax, Rumble, Rek’Sai, Ornn, Sivir, Lucian, Rneata Glasc, and Irelia.

Q2 2026 – Unleashed

While other TCGs (ahem, Magic: The Gathering) will overlap previews with releases, Riot is squarely focused on Spiritforged for now – so details about Unleashed are pretty scarce at the time of writing.

Expect it to introduce new mechanics as with its predecessor, but we’re also expecting to see the arrival of fan-favorite Vi as a Legend, alongside Master Yi, Rengar, and LeBlanc.

We’ll update this page as more information becomes available.

Q3 2026 – Vendetta

Again, information for another upcoming set is thin on the ground for Riftbound’s Vendetta. We know it’ll come in Q3 (or at least, that’s the plan), and that Mel, Akali, and Ambessa are likely to arrive.

Riot has also suggested that Vendetta will see it merge the Chinese and North American release schedules into one. Here’s hoping the supply issues are sorted by then…

Q4 2026 – Radiance

While we have the set name for Radiance, we have no further information. What Legends will it include? What mechanics? ANYTHING!?

Until Riot is ready to talk, it remains a mystery, but as always we’ll have this page updated as we hear more.

What about Origins?

Origins is still Riftbound’s current set, and while it’s tough to get hold of, that should get easier in the coming months (otherwise, Riot will be in big trouble).

The launch set’s tutorial set, dubbed Proving Grounds, is still going for inflated prices on the secondary market, making it tricky to, you know, learn how to play the game.

The same can be said of the preconstructed decks for Jinx, Lee Sin, and Victor, but anecdotally, I’ve at least seen some stock of those on local game stores, even if they’re not always readily available online.

Boosters are a mixed bag – sometimes you’ll find some, but you’re unlikely to find a box right now.

As we said at launch: “Sadly, as the first set of Riot’s first card game hits shelves, it’s being snapped up by scalpers and put on the secondary market.

“It’s a standard practice in TCGs, but Riot is reportedly printing more. If you can hold out, there will be more product.”

That still rings true today – stay strong, and wait it out.
