Nintendo Download: Praise the Sun!

Dark Souls finally arrives for the Nintendo Switch this week. Will you be questing back into its harsh and unforgiving fantasy world?

Praise the Switch

I ask that question at the top of this rundown, because there isn’t much else this week. So if you’re not set on questing into Dark Souls “harsh and unforgiving” world, you’re probably going to be out of luck.

Not that there aren’t a few standouts, like Valkyria Chronicles, but the pickings are slim. And I’m being nice. Don’t believe me? Scroll down and have a look.
