Nintendo Download: X and X-2 Mark the Spot

It’s a Final Fantasy kind of week in the Nintendo Download. X/X-2 HD Remaster lands on Switch, along with a few other gems.

Fantasies

Not 1 but 2 classic Fantasies land for Nintendo gamers this week with both Final Fantasy X and X-2 Remasters. The games are available as a pack for $49.99 USD. It doesn’t seem like there’s any way to buy them separately though, so you’ll have too grab both if want either.

Additionally, this week brings the digital pre-order for Mortal Kombat 11, the critically acclaimed Hellblade, and the remaster for the classic adventure game Shadowgate. All around, pretty solid.
