Dragon Star Varnir’s Switch port was announced earlier this year with a release window of Spring 2021. Well, now the release date has been confirmed as May 27, 2021 for Japan. 

The game will be coming out on the Japanese eShop for 4,800 yen. It is not confirmed if the port will support English language options, but given that the previously released Steam and PS4 versions support English, it is likely that the worldwide release will also.

The upcoming 2-D platformer Wicce has been delayed. The game was previously expected to release on Switch in May, but publisher CFK has announced that the release date will be pushed to June 3, 2021 (and it will be a digital release). 

The game originally released in 2016 and the Switch version was recently revealed in April 2021. But, players will have to wait a little longer to get it on a portable system. The game will support English language options as well as German, French, Korean, Japanese, and Chinese (simplified and traditional).

The Pokemon Company has started a new program called “Project Piplup.” This project is cryptic in nature but seems to have to do with promotional activities featuring the Pokemon Piplup.

To mark the start of this campaign, the official Pokemon YouTube channel has uploaded a Japanese promo video for this project. In the short description for this video, it mentions (in Japanese) that the project is meant to “spread the charm of Piplup to the world.”

How exactly the Pokemon Company will do that is unknown at this time. But there is an official website, Twitter page, and Instagram to follow for Project Piplup and apparently more videos will be shown soon on the Pokemon YouTube channel. 

It looks like The Pokemon Company is going big for its musical features to celebrate its 25th anniversary. They have released a song called Electric by Katy Perry that is apparently a part of an album they are creating called Pokemon 25: The Album. This song also comes with a music video that features Katy Perry and Pikachu exploring an island and signing in a lighthouse.

Check out the full song below in the official music video, and it can be streamed on all music platforms now.
