More than 18 months after its original release, Animal Crossing: New Horizons is finally get another expansion, but we'll have to wait a little longer to find out what it's all about. At a minimum we know it will feature the return of Brewster, a fan-favorite character who dates back to Animal Crossing: Wild World on the Nintendo DS.

What happens, this content update is a long time coming for Animal Crossing fans. While Animal Crossing: New Horizons has introduced several new features since its Spring 2020 launch — including new characters, events, and the ability to go swimming — it still lacks some features from the 3DS game.

Despite that, Animal Crossing: New Horizons has been an incredible success for Nintendo, selling some 31 million copies in less than a year. It's been described as the quintessential pandemic game, its wholesome community building making it something of an international obsession during a period where people have been stuck indoors.

While many have since departed to play other games, the new expansion will hopefully be a great reason to venture back. It releases November. In the meantime, here's our full recap of today's Nintendo Direct.

We're still not sure who will be the final DLC character added to Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.

During September's Nintendo Direct, it was revealed that the final "Mr. Sakurai Presents" will take place on October 5 at 10:00 am ET. Until then, we wait.

This latest fighter, whoever it may be, will follow Tekken's Kazuya, who was added to Super Smash Bros. Ultimate back in June. Along with Xenoblade's Pyra and Final Fantasy 7's Sephiroth, it's been an exciting 12 months for new fighters. These iconic character were also joined by Dante and Skyrim's Dovahkiin in June, who joined in the form of Mii fighter costumes.

During today's Nintendo Direct presentation, we got our first proper look at Yoko Taro's upcoming card-based RPG, Voice of Cards: The Isle Dragon Roars, which we also learned is coming to Nintendo Switch on October 28.

The game is a turn-based RPG where everything, from characters to shops, towns and environments, is represented as cards. It's all represented on a tabletop, with characters clearly having different stats and certain rules dictating the outcomes of battles, which the trailer advertises as leaning on both skill and luck.

Aside from Taro's involvement, he's assembled a pile of Nier series veterans to work with on this new endeavor. Yosuke Saito is on board as executive producer, Kimihiko Fujisaka joins as a character designer, and Keiichi Okabe is directing music.

Voice of Cards was previously announced by publisher Square Enix earlier this month, with Taro at the time saying the project was “difficult to explain,” and a “somewhat unusual game.”

Taro's other recent works include recent mobile game Nier Reincarnation, a mobile game that takes place in the same universe as the mainline Nier games, as well as the remake of Nier Replicant.

Today's Nintendo Direct had plenty of other exciting announcements, so if you missed it you can catch our full recap of everything shown.

Disco Elysium: The Final Cut, the lauded story-driven role-playing game about being a total failure of a detective, has finally gotten itself a Switch release date: Oct. 12.

A physical version of the game for the Switch will be available in early 2022. Pre-orders for the digital version begin today.

During today's Nintendo Direct presentation, Disco Elysium: The Final Cut got the release date announcement after months of anticipation, showing some footage of the game's shabby hero of a detective and the mystery he stumbles through in the world of Elysium.

Disco Elysium: The Final Cut has been out for a while on consoles after making the leap away from PC exclusivity, having dropped on PS4, PS5, and Stadia back in March. It's allegedly coming to Xbox as well, but we still don't have a date on that.

We gave Disco Elysium a 9.6 in our initial review of the game, having loved its sharp writing, memorable characters, and its embrace of old-school, pen-and-paper RPGs. We deemed it the best PC exclusive of 2019, and it's since been so celebrated as to get a TV adaptation in the works from the same producer as the Sonic the Hedgehog movie.
