Nintendo Download Update Europe: Switch and 3DS Welcome Major Releases and Indie Highlights

Nintendo has delivered another compelling Nintendo Download Update for Europe, packed with high-profile retail launches, indie debuts, and notable pre-purchase opportunities across both the Nintendo Switch and Nintendo 3DS platforms.

This week's lineup showcases the breadth of the eShop library, catering to fans of family-friendly board games, challenging action titles, and innovative indie experiences.

For the Nintendo Switch, Ubisoft's Monopoly is now available as a retail download for €39.99 / £29.99.

Announced as one of Ubisoft's earliest projects for the system, Monopoly Switch offers the classic board game experience in a digital format, enhanced with customizable rules and expedited 'Special Goals' modes that adapt to shorter play sessions or portable battery limitations.

Meanwhile, Cartoon Network: Battle Crashers (GameMill Entertainment, €39.99 / £35.99) makes its transition from the 3DS, allowing players to team up, locally or solo, with popular Cartoon Network characters in an energetic beat 'em up format. Another notable arrival is Monster Jam: Crush It! (GameMill Entertainment, €39.99 / £35.99), a racing game adapted from its PlayStation 4 and Xbox One release.

It offers 30 diverse maps and over 80 skill-based challenges, supplemented by six officially licensed Monster Jam stadiums for an authentic monster truck experience. On the indie side, Morphite (Level 77, €14.99 / £13.49)—co-developed by Crescent Moon Games, We’re Five Games, and Blowfish Studios—stands out as an atmospheric sci-fi exploration shooter.

Players follow protagonist Myrah Kale on an interstellar quest that merges platforming with procedurally generated worlds, all while uncovering secrets about her past and the mysterious Morphite substance.

Deep End Games’ Perception (€13.99 / £12.99) adds a unique twist to the first-person horror genre by casting players as a blind protagonist who must navigate her surroundings using sound, offering a distinctive and suspenseful experience on Switch. Other Switch highlights include Chess Ultra (Ripstone, €12.49 / £9.99), featuring online tournaments and exclusive local multiplayer, and Super Beat Sports (Harmonix, €14.99/£13.49), which brings rhythm-based sports minigames with up to four-player support, echoing Harmonix's legacy as the studio behind Rock Band.

Platform enthusiasts can also enjoy a range of eShop deals, such as Oceanhorn: Monster of Uncharted Seas (FDG Entertainment, €11.24/£10.11 until 9th November), and try before buying with new demos like Heroes of the Monkey Tavern. On Nintendo 3DS, the major release is Kirby Battle Royale (Nintendo, €39.99/£34.99), launching 3rd November.

This title spotlights competitive multiplayer action, allowing players to duke it out using Kirby’s famous copy abilities across several modes, with both local and online play supported.

Pre-purchase is also open for Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, offering exclusive in-game bonuses—such as the Pokémon: Pikachu & Poké Ball theme and 12 Quick Balls—for those who order early. Further bolstering the 3DS and New Nintendo 3DS libraries are titles like Creeping Terror (Aksys Games, €8.99/£8.09), a suspenseful adventure set in an abandoned mansion, and Phil's Epic Fill-a-Pix Adventure by Lightwood Games, blending classic picture-logic with puzzle gameplay.

The eShop also hosts permanent and temporary discounts across select titles, with deals on favorites like Battleminer and Ambition of the Slimes. The Wii U eShop, while receiving less frequent updates, offers discounts on acclaimed titles like Master Reboot, Soul Axiom, and Back to Bed, continuing its legacy of unique digital experiences. This comprehensive Nintendo Download Update for Europe underscores Nintendo’s ongoing commitment to delivering diverse gaming experiences across Switch, 3DS, and Wii U.

With options ranging from iconic franchises to fresh indie concepts, the eShop continues to position itself as a vibrant marketplace for all types of gamers.

For full details and regional pricing, players are encouraged to check their local eShop and take advantage of limited-time offers before they expire.
