Set in the realm beyond the Torii Gates, Otherworldly Venture unleashes a constant torrent of Seethe, pushing players to survive. A day/night cycle is still present, but in a streamlined form, and over time, you can choose different rewards like more Crystals, additional Villagers, and more, adding a rogue-like flavor.

Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess will launch on June 5th for Switch 2 with Otherworldly Venture included. However, it’s also coming to Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, PS5, and PC as a free update on the same day.

Check out our review for more details on the Kunitsu-Gami – we gave it an eight out of ten, praising the level design, bosses, and variety of activities. It surpassed 500,000 players within the first few weeks, failing to meet the publisher’s sales targets.

Several major third-party multiplatform games that have been previously elsewhere were officially announced for the Switch 2. That includes the likes of Split Fiction, Star Wars Outlaws, Civilization 7, Hogwarts Legacy, Wild Hearts, Two Point Museum, and Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess. Separately, Sega also announced Sonic X Shadow Generations for the upcoming Nintendo console. 

Split Fiction, Civilization 7, Hogwarts Legacy, and Kunitsu-Gami will be available for the Switch 2 on launch day, which is June 5, while Wild Hearts will arrive later that month, on July 25. Meanwhile, Two Point Museum, Sonic X Shadow Generations, and Star Wars Outlaws will all launch before the end of 2025. 

That isn’t the extent of confirmed third-party support for the Switch 2 either. Several major games have been confirmed, including Elden Ring, Cyberpunk 2077, Final Fantasy 7 Remake Intergrade, Hitman: World of Assassination and Project 007, Borderlands 4, Yakuza 0: Director’s Cut, and others.  

January 22nd sees the arrival of Flock, Magical Delicacy, Tchia, The Case of the Golden Idol, and Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess on consoles for Game Pass Standard subscribers. They’re joined by Gigantic: Rampage Edition, playable for Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass subscribers, and Starbound. January 28th sees the arrival of two brand new titles – Orcs Must Die! Deathtrap and Eternal Strands.

Both are playable on Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass. Shady Part of Me debuts on January 29th for all tiers, and Sniper Elite: Resistance sneaks in on January 30th for Ultimate and PC Game Pass. The month caps off with Citizen Sleeper 2: Starward Vector on January 31st for cloud, PC, and Xbox Series X/S.

But wait, there’s more, as Far Cry New Dawn will be added for all subscribers on February 4th. Of course, there will be titles leaving the service on January 31st. Check them out below.

• Anuchard (Cloud, Console, and PC)
• Broforce Forever (Cloud, Console, and PC)
• Darkest Dungeon (Cloud, Console, and PC)
• Death’s Door (Cloud, Console, and PC)
• Maquette (Cloud, Console, and PC)
• Serious Sam: Siberian Mayhem (Cloud, Console, and PC)

“Insufficient marketing” and “failure to generate buzz” leading up to the launch contributed to its under-performance. The action strategy title crossed 500,000 players less than a month after release, though it’s available on Game Pass and sales figures are unknown.

Sales are on track for other titles released this year, including Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster, Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection: Arcade Classics, and Ace Attorney Investigations Collection. Capcom is still confident in its annual targets, with Monster Hunter Wilds launching on February 28th, 2025.

Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess is available for Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, PS5, and PC. Check out our review here. The company clarified before launch that there are no plans for DLC, which looks even less likely given its sales.

These include upcoming releases like Monster Hunter Wilds and Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection: Arcade Classics. Available games like Monster Hunter Now, Street Fighter 6, and Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess, alongside titles launching before TGS 2024, like Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster and Ace Attorney Investigations Collection, will also be playable.

Of course, the content of these demos will be announced later, so stay tuned for updates. Tokyo Game Show starts on September 26th and ends on September 29th. Other attending companies include Sony and Kojima Productions, the latter hosting a special stage event for Death Stranding 2: On The Beach. Head here for more details.

Taking to Twitter, Capcom recently announced that Kunitsu-Gami has crossed 500,000 players worldwide across all platforms. It’s worth mentioning that this figure isn’t representative of the game’s sales, especially since it has also been available via Game Pass since day one of its release- though that’s an impressive player base to gather for a new IP within less than a month of its release nonetheless. 

To commemorate this milestone, Capcom is also giving away several in-game bonuses to players in the form of Mazo Talisman: Jubilee, Dancing Crane, and Okami collaboration Mazo Talisman: Amaterasu.

In our review of the game, we awarded it a score of 8/10, saying, “Kunitsu-Gami is an intriguing action/strategy hybrid that provides consistently fresh gameplay and relaxing moments. If you’re not a fan of strategy or action games, I’d still recommend this game since it’s an experience that manages to transcend either genre thanks to its quieter moments.” Read the full review through here.

Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess is available on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, Xbox One, and PC. 

More specifically, Capcom has announced (via Gematsu) that at Gamescom, from August 21 to August 25, Monster Hunter Wilds will be making its first public appearance, with the action RPG set to be at over 60 playable demo stations for people to go hands on with, with series producer Ryozo Tsujimoto, executive director and art director Kaname Fujioka, and director Yuya Tokuda also set to be present.

As previously announced, Monster Hunter Wilds is also set to receive a new showing at Gamescom Opening Night Live on August 20. Meanwhile, Capcom is also set to bring the upcoming Ace Attorney Investigations Collection to its booth, offering players the chance to go hands-on with it ahead of its September release.

In addition to the two aforementioned upcoming titles, Capcom is also bringing a number of previously released titles to Gamescom. Specifically, that will entail Street Fighter 6 (with players being able to go hands-on with upcoming guest DLC character Terry Bogard), Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess, and Monster Hunter Now.

In the lead up to its Gamescom blowout, Capcom has also been showcasing new gameplay trailers for Monster Hunter Wilds, highlight different weapons such as the Heavy Bowgun, the Great Sword, the Insect Glaive, and more.

Monster Hunter Wilds is due out in 2025 for PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC.

As Soh, players guide the Maiden Yoshiro through Mt. Kafuku to exorcise the demonic Seethe. It’s easier said than done, so players can rescue different villagers in the day and convert them into soldiers. You can have archers to deal range damage and melee units to tackle foot soldiers. Depending on the need, units can be moved and reassigned.

It’s a unique combo of real-time strategy, tower defense (since you must protect Yoshiro throughout her ritual) and combat. With a main story that lasts about 20 hours, Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess provides a hefty experience. Of course, the Okami collaboration items, including an Amaterasu-style armor and Thunder Edge weapon, make for nice bonuses. Check out our review of the title for more details.

On July 18th, A44 Games’ Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn arrives on July 18th for Xbox Series X/S, PC and cloud. It sees Nor Vanek and the mysterious Enki on a journey to defeat the gods after the undead infest the world. Dungeons of Hinterberg is out on the same day and provides a mix of dungeon-crawling and adventuring in the Austrian Alps.

Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess arrives on July 19th, mixing hack-and-slash action with strategy tower defense. As Soh, players must clear a path for the Maiden Yoshiro to purify the Seethe inhabiting Mt. Kafuku. Check out our review for more details.

Interestingly, Microsoft is touting “another update” for subscribers soon. Perhaps the rumored addition of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 to Game Pass? The alleged arrival of Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy, Spyro Reignited Trilogy and Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1+2? Stay tuned.

Check out the titles leaving the service on July 31st:

• A Short Hike (Cloud, Console, and PC)
• Train Sim World 4 (Cloud, Console, and PC)
• Venba (Cloud, Console, and PC)

That goal has been met, which means all players receive exclusive items based on Clover Studio’s acclaimed 2006 action-adventure. These include a costume for Soh resembling Amaterasu (the protagonist of Okami) and the Thunder Edge weapon, while the Maiden Yoshiro gets a costume based on Waka.

A collaboration soundtrack will also be available based on the title. Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess launches on July 19th for Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, PS5 and PC. It’s also available on day one for Game Pass subscribers. Capcom has touted the main story as 20 hours long (and no less), but unlike its major franchises, it doesn’t have plans for DLC.
