Nintendo Download: ver.2022.10.06

An unusual title, no? Well, maybe it’ll make a little more sense since this week brings NieR:Automata The End of YoRHa Edition to the Switch.

Android army ahoy

This is actually a pretty big week for Switch fans, with a couple of big names arriving. Of course, the headliner is NieR:Automata The End of YoRHa Edition, but there’s more than just that coming up in short order.

While NieR is great, there’s also the expansive, space exploration title No Man’s Sky also hits this week. The Switch version sounds like it doesn’t skimp either, bringing the game’s massive universe to Nintendo’s little console. And yes, that includes seamless arrivals and departures from far off planets.

Along with those two, LEGO Bricktales, the Assassin’s Creed Mega Bundle, and an absolute load of smaller releases all hit. So scroll on down and take a peek at what’s scheduled.

Nintendo eShop on Nintendo Switch

  • NieR:Automata The End of YoRHa Edition – NieR:Automata The End of YoRHa Edition is the Nintendo Switch version of NieR:Automata, an award-winning post-apocalyptic action RPG that has achieved deep-rooted popularity around the world. In the distant future, invaders from another world attack without warning, unleashing a new type of threat: weapons known as “machine lifeforms.” In the face of this insurmountable threat, mankind is driven from Earth and takes refuge on the Moon. As 2B, a member of the newly organized android military force YoRHa, players will immerse themselves in a ferocious battle to take back the planet.
  • LEGO Bricktales – Embark on an epic adventure across a world of beautiful LEGO diorama biomes crafted brick-by-brick with your little robot buddy in tow as you search for inspiration to help your grandfather reinvigorate his rundown amusement park. Your journey will take you to the deepest jungle, sun-drenched deserts, a bustling city corner, a towering medieval castle and tropical Caribbean islands. Help the minifigures of these worlds by solving puzzles and unlock new skills throughout the story to uncover the many secrets and mysteries they contain. LEGO Bricktales will be available on Oct. 12.
  • No Man’s Sky – Inspired by the sense of adventure and imagination from classic science-fiction, No Man’s Sky presents you with a galaxy to explore, filled with distinct planets and lifeforms, and constant danger and action. In No Man’s Sky, every star is the light of a distant sun, each orbited by planets filled with life, and you can go to any of them you choose. Fly smoothly from deep space to planetary surfaces, with no loading screens and no limits. In this infinite procedurally generated universe, you’ll discover places and creatures that no other players have seen before – and perhaps never will again. No Man’s Sky will be available on Oct. 7.
