A quartet of re-releases make their way to the Switch this week. That includes both Baldur’s Gate titles, Icewind Dale, and Planescape Torment. Four big D&D classics there.
But wait, there’s more! Overwatch: Legendary Edition, The Ninja Saviors, Zombieland: Double Tap, and the intriguing Valfaris all hit as well. So there’s quite a bit to play, all told.
