Dungeon Defenders Awakened Episode Two Part 1

Chromatic Games shared news about Dungeon Defenders: Awakened in celebration of PAX West 2022 today, confirming that Switch is set to receive the free expansion “Episode Two Part 1” this November.

The expansion features two new maps, including The Bazaar and Lost Metropolis, plus tradeable Runes to enhance specific abilities or defenses to suit any preferred playstyle. The fan-favorite character, Summoner, will also be reimagined as “Outcast Summoner” when they re-enter the fray and defend the frontlines. That’s along with other quality of life improvements including player gear trading, as well as an increased level cap with new gear and abilities to master.

OmegaBot, which was originally planned to hit Switch today, has been delayed. Red Art Games has now set a new release date of January 20, 2023.

Regarding the delay, Red Art explained that the extra time will give the team “ample time to polish the console versions of the game.”

Live A Live sales

The HD-2D remake of Live A Live on Switch has reached its first sales milestone, with the game having topped 500,000 copies in terms of combined shipments and digital downloads. That figure goes for the title’s performance across all regions.

News about Live A Live’s sales was shared during an official live stream earlier today. Director Takashi Tokita delivered the news directly.

Splatoon 3 Salmon Run

The Salmon Run mode in Splatoon 3 will be available at all days and all times, Nintendo has confirmed.

This is noteworthy as things were handled differently in Splatoon 2. With that game, Salmon Run was restricted since it couldn’t always be played online. In fact, it wasn’t actually playable every day. Nintendo confirming that Salmon Run will always be open in Splatoon 3 is therefore a pretty big deal.

Original (9/1): PQube has already been under fire after A Space for the Unbound publisher Toge Productions and developer Mojiken accused the company of “predatory practices”. Corecell Technology, the studio behind the AeternoBlade series, has now joined the fray as well.

In a statement, Corecell said PQube hasn’t provided full payment that was owed relating to a minimum guarantee and never paid for remaining milestones. Although the two sides terminated a publishing agreement, “PQube has refused to return the publishing control on the console platforms back to us and continues to sell and take all revenues from AeternoBlade II.” Nintendo has taken the game off of the Switch eShop in Europe, though Corecell hasn’t received any revenue from that region.

The full statement from Corecell reads as follows:
