The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom is a brand-new instalment in the acclaimed franchise, scheduled for release on the Switch on 26th September 2024.
Notably, the series will feature Princess Zelda as the primary protagonist rather than Link.
Link, alongside other residents of Hyrule, has vanished following the sudden appearance of mysterious rifts across the kingdom.
Zelda must partner with the enigmatic fairy, Tri, and wield the Tri Rod to master the creation of 'echoes' (replicas of environmental objects).
These echoes can be utilised at any time to solve puzzles and overcome adversaries.
For instance, players can construct water blocks to access elevated areas, bridge gaps using old beds, hurl rocks at foes, or devise their own unique combinations. Furthermore, it is possible to summon echoes of monsters to fight on your behalf during combat.
Coinciding with the game's launch, a Nintendo Switch Lite: Hyrule Edition console, inspired by the franchise, will also be made available.

Mario & Luigi: Brothership is scheduled to release on 7th November 2024. In this fresh adventure, the iconic brothers will embark on an island-hopping expedition across the expansive world of Concordia aboard Shipshape Island—a vessel that functions as part ship, part island.
Players will set sail with Mario and Luigi, launching from Shipshape’s cannon to explore and complete quests across diverse environments, ranging from tropical rainforests to bustling urban centres.
Throughout the journey, players will encounter new characters such as Connie and Snoutlet (who is emphatically not a pig), as well as familiar figures from the Mushroom Kingdom, including Peach and Bowser, who may offer assistance.
Success relies heavily on the fraternal bond between Mario and Luigi. Utilise Bros. Moves to navigate environmental obstacles, and execute powerful Bros. Attacks in a dynamic variation of turn-based combat. Capitalising on this 'brothership' will be essential to proceed effectively.
