We heard back in June that Red Art Games' upcoming release, OmegaBot, would be landing on Switch in September (much like every other game in the world!). However, today the studio has reached out to say that the game is being pushed back to a release on January 20th 2023.

In its statement, Red Art Games states that the reason for the delay is to ensure that OmegaBot is released in the most polished state possible — something that we are sure will only benefit the final product. The studio was also quick to add that the game will be receiving a physical Switch release as well as digital, so we are hoping for some lovely cover art to match the game's signature colourful aesthetic.

For the official statement, have a read of the following excerpt which contains the delay decision:

Robots really are a thing of the future

Take Sackboy on an epic 3D platforming adventure with your friends.

The dastardly Vex (a near-mythical being born of chaos and fear, no less) kidnaps Sackboy’s friends and forces them to build his Topsy Turver.

This most deadly diabolical device will transform Craftworld from a fantastical land of pure imagination and innocent dreams… into a torrid, barren eyesore of nightmares. Ooh the fiend!

But legend tells of a prophecy from deep within the ancient order of the Knitted Knights, Craftworld’s legendary protectors. For only the brave,
fearless, chivalrous and, yes, gallant can save the day in an almost too dramatic for words race against time stuffed with danger and peril. So much peril.

Earlier this week, video game journalist Jeff Grubb spoke about a Nintendo Direct taking place at some point this month.

While there's been no official announcement just yet, Grubb has now elaborated on his original comments - reiterating what he has heard from his own sources. Speaking to the Nintendo Shack crew, Grubb explained how Zelda Wind Waker and Twilight Princess re-releases would likely be part of the focus - including a possible name reveal of the Breath of the Wild sequel:

"...A lot of Zelda stuff, now I said the word "blowout" everyone is hyper-fixated on [that]...I don't know what their [Nintendo] exact plans are, I suspect, and it's been intimated to me... this is probably happening that we will probably get the name of Breath of the Wild 2, and we will also get the ports of the Wii U HD transfers of Wind Waker and Twilight Princess."

Possibly Metroid Prime and an EA game, too

In the week that brought us the results of Splatoon 3's first Splatfest, we have been busy with lots of quality gaming content over here on Nintendo Life. September is now upon us which not only means that we are preparing for a complete barrage of new gaming titles coming to our consoles over the next few weeks, but also (as is bound to happen) we have begun talking all things Nintendo Direct, with rumours already circulating.

For those of you looking for something new to kickstart September, we have been getting hands on with a wide range of hot-off-the-press titles including ANNO: Mutationem, Ooblets and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Cowabunga Collection (come on, we couldn't make a wider-ranging trio even if we tried). Elsewhere on Nintendo Life this week, we have been following Pokémon Scarlet and Violet's cryptic clues, ranking each game's Pokédex, and leaning forward with our tongues out as we compiled a list of the hardest games on Switch.

All this means we're ready for a weekend of relaxed gaming. Here, a collection of our writers tell us their downtime gaming plans and we would love to hear yours too! Just leave us a comment down below to let us know what you are going to be playing!
