20 Unreal Engine 4 games in development for Switch in Japan

There are about 20 titles that use Unreal Engine 4 in development for Switch, Epic Games Japan representative Takayuki Kawasaki told Automaton in a recent interview.

“Unfortunately, there were not any Unreal Engine titles at launch, but in late March, Snake Pass, which was one of the titles playable at GDC, launched in America and Europe, and at the Nintendo Switch Presentation, there were titles such as Shin Megami Tensei,” Kawasaki said. “In Japan, there are about 20 titles being developed that use Unreal Engine, so I think that they’ll be announced gradually from here on.”

When asked if that number corresponds to Switch titles, Kawasaki said, “These are titles that use Unreal Engine, for Switch, and are being made in Japan. There may even be more. And now we’re gradually moving forward with Switch support for the free version [of Unreal Engine 4]. That way, as long as you have a Switch development license, you will be able to develop for Switch even with the free version.”

At the moment, there are only a few announced Japanese titles for Switch that use Unreal Engine 4, including Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night, Shin Megami Tensei, and presumably Dragon Quest XI (the Switch version has yet to be shown, so we don’t know if it’s based on the PlayStation 4’s Unreal Engine 4 version or the 3DS’s 3D/2D version).

　　虽然纯利润较去年同期暴增了五倍之多，但其实纯利润中有将近645亿日元的利润来自有价证券和股票的投资收益。经常利润中pokemon股份公司的投资收益也占了201亿日元。因此，虽然任天堂对未来抱有良好预期，但上财年整体还是处于减益减收状况。

　　上财年中，任天堂发售了全新概念的游戏机Nintendo Switch，虽然发售日已临近财年结算尾期，但依然因为首发的迅猛销量而博得了高人气，特别是首发游戏《塞尔达传说：旷野之息》全世界销量276万（包含WiiU版本为384万），全球主机销量为274万台，软件总销量为546万套。

　　3DS方面，2016年11月《精灵宝可梦 太阳/月亮》发售，总销量1544万套。《超级马里奥制造 for 3DS》销量234万套，《星之卡比：机器人星球》销量136万套。此外，手游《精灵宝可梦GO》的配信，有效带动了家用机端《精灵宝可梦》系列的游戏销量，因此上财年，3DS主机总销量为727万台（同比增长7%），软件总销量5508万套（同比增长14%）。

　　WiiU方面，随着WiiU主机淡出市场，最后的一款大作《塞尔达传说：旷野之息》售出108万套。当期软件总销量1480万套（同比下跌46%），主机销量基本符合期初预期共计76万台，同比减少77%。

　　手游方面，2016年12月及2017年3月分别在IOS和安卓平台配信全新游戏《超级马里奥酷跑》，获得了全球马里奥爱好者的极大反响。此外，2017年2月手游《火焰纹章：英雄》开始配信，根据君岛社长说明，《火焰纹章：英雄》的下载量虽然不及《超级马里奥酷跑》的十分之一，但销售额却在《马里奥酷跑》之上。

　　amiibo方面，虽然新作都在积极对应amiibo，但当期手办型amiibo仅售出910万个，卡片型amiibo仅售出930万张，大大低于同期水平。

　　在2017~2018财年中，任天堂还将于2017年4月发售《马里奥赛车8 豪华版》、6月发售《ARMS》，7月发售《喷射战士2》等第一方大作。3DS方面，5月将在海外发售《火焰纹章：回声 另一位英雄王》（日文版4月上市），6~7月预计发售《永恒绿洲》和《Hey！皮克敏》等作品。另外，在2017年迎来发售25周年的《星之卡比》系列还将在3DS平台上推出全新续作，期待今后任天堂为玩家带来更多的惊喜。

Kotaku: Mario x Rabbids RPG for Switch is real

https://i.kinja-img.com/gawker-m ... -gEm6CvNt--/c_scale,fl_progressive,q_80,w_800/apvrtvchfzkfy0os43y0.jpg

Source: The Rumored Mario x Rabbids RPG is Real, Coming to Switch

One of this fall’s big Nintendo Switch games will be Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle, a game that has been rumored for quite some time and does indeed exist, as confirmed by art assets provided to Kotaku. The game will mix Nintendo’s iconic plumber (and friends) with characters from Ubisoft’s popular Rabbids series.

Although the person who sent the assets asked us not to share them, they corroborate the existence of a bizarre crossover RPG that’s currently scheduled to come to Switch in either August or September. Ubisoft is developing Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle on the publisher’s proprietary Snowdrop engine, according to the assets we’ve seen. The game’s selling points appear to be a) turn-based combat, b) two-player local co-op, and c) a goofy sense of humor. (The art we’ve seen features Mario and crew wielding guns that shoot laser beams.)

The game will apparently have eight playable characters: Mario, Luigi, Yoshi, Peach, and, bizarrely, four Rabbids dressed up as Mario, Luigi, Yoshi, and Peach.

The existence of this Mario and Rabbids crossover was first reported by Laura Kate Dale, who became infamous over the past year for running various rumors about the Switch, including some correct specifics on the hardware. Although many of her software rumors turned out to be false, Dale nailed this one, and it’s likely we’ll see Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle at E3 (unless Ubisoft decides to announce it earlier).

Nintendo and Ubisoft did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
