Nintendo will finally dip their toe into the virtual reality waters this week with the launch of Nintendo Labo: VR Kit for the Switch. The consolemaker’s latest Labo set will include instructions to construct several new cardboard controllers including Toy-Con VR Goggles, a Toy-Con Blaster, a Toy-Con Elephant, a Toy-Con Camera, a Toy-Con Bird, and more.
While Nintendo is busy asking their players to pretend to be elephants, the team at Three Fields Entertainment will finally get the chance to give the public a look at Dangerous Driving, their spiritual successor to the Burnout franchise. Set to be released for the PS4 and Xbox One, Dangerous Driving will let players drive with “speed” and “aggression” as they tear up the track. A digital release for the PC will also be available exclusively through the Epic Games Store.
Finally this week, a pair of specialist publishers will release some new games that might have flown under your radar. Spike Chunsoft will launch their latest RPG, Zanki Zero: Last Beginning, for the PS4 (and with a digital release on the PC through Steam). Meanwhile, NIS America will bring their exploration sim, Neo Atlas 1469, to the Switch for the first time.
That’s it for this week’s new retail releases, but you can expect a wide variety of new titles to also make their way to the PlayStation Store, Xbox Games Store, and Nintendo eShop (including Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Trilogy, Earth Defense Force: Iron Rain, and the Switch debut of Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice) over the next seven days.
