The next character trailer for Pokken Tournament DX has been released. This time, it’s Empoleon’s turn, another character that has previously only been playable in the arcade version of the game.

Some special gear is coming to Splatoon 2. Available exclusively via the SplatNet 2 Gear Shop in the Nintendo Switch Online app, the “Summer Vacation Collection” will be available to purchase from August 11th till August 16th.

Atelier Lydie & Soeur: Alchemists of the Mysterious Painting is getting some special editions that include a variety of goodies.

The “Premium Box” (picture above) comes with the following:

  • Visual Book
  • Three mini-clear posters
  • Extra Tracks & Voice CD (two discs)
  • B3-size special illustrated cloth poster
  • special in-game items

There’s also the “Atelier 20th Anniversary Box”, celebrating the 20th anniversary of the series. It’s exclusive to Amazon Japan and Gust’s own online store. It includes everything from the Premium Box plus:

  • Sophie & Firis Premium Visual Book
  • Lydie & Soeur Double Crystal Paperweight
  • Atelier 20th Anniversary Alchemist Pin Badge Collection

Finally, all first-print editions of the game will come with a download code for Marie and Elie costumes.

 
 
Of course, all of these are Japan-only at the moment. Let’s hope that Gust will localize this game at some point.

The 9th Global Mission in Pokemon Sun & Moon, which is still ongoing but has already met its goal, will be the final one. With the release of Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon only a couple of months away, we can likely expect Global Missions to continue in those games though.
