The Nintendo Switch is set to be officially released in Brazil more than three years after it originally launched worldwide.

Wargroove On PS4 Finally Gets Free Double Trouble DLC And Cross-Play
Wargroove, a turn-based strategy game in the vein of Advance Wars, received free DLC earlier this year–but only on Switch, Xbox One, and PC.

The Sims 4 finally lets me kill and then eat other Sims
The Sims 4: Eco Living promises a delightful romp for eco-conscious players who want to rehabilitate their smoggy neighborhoods and help change the world.

Destiny 2 Is Finally Getting Armor Transmogrification – But Not For A While
Like any MMO, part of the experience of playing Destiny 2 is looking awesome. You customize your alien-slaying Guardian with cool armor earned through your various exploits, which you can then colorize with special shaders.
