Rocket League Announces “New Era” Alongside Unreal Engine 6 Reveal

Last I played Rocket League on Switch 1, there was a 30fps mode and a 60fps mode. If they can’t get the game to run at 60, I don’t think it’s worth playing it on Switch. Normally I’m ok with 30 but for competitive games it’s a different story. At the very least if they…

Best Switch 2 Ports – The Most Impressive Third-Party Games On Nintendo Switch 2

Since launch, Switch 2 has quickly followed in its predecessor’s footsteps, attracting impressive ports from other consoles which belie the modest power of its mobile chipset. It’s a massive jump up from Switch 1, but we’re still talking about a tablet smaller than the average paperback, and it’s mightily impressive to see it handling some…

Let’s catch up with Team NL and see what’s in their slots this Saturday… Gavin Lane, Editor I was having a great time with Pragmata and will definitely go back, but Henry Jones Jr. dropped in and I’ve played nothing else this week.
