Original (12/21): A new update has gone out for Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp, though only on Android at present. The latest version is 1.1.1.

Nintendo only mentions that bug fixes have been implemented with the latest update. We’ll keep an eye for any further information or a release on iOS.

Dr. Coyle is the latest fighter to have been added to ARMS, but she’s actually a new boss as well. You can see what happens when you challenge the Grand Prix at Level 6 or 7 below.

Following its announcement in Famitsu this week, the official website for the new Switch version of WorldNeverland: Elnea Kingdom has opened. You can access it here.

WorldNeverland: Elnea Kingdom, a simulation title, was first released for smartphones where it has a user rating of 4.3 out of 5. On Switch, the vertical format will be swapped out for a horizontal interface and will not require an internet connection to play after the initial download. However, the Switch and mobile versions will not be compatible. Pricing is also “not yet fixed.”

WorldNeverland: Elnea Kingdom launches for Switch in Spring 2018 in Japan. It has yet to be announced for the west, but the game’s website shows an “English (US)” language option, though it’s currently disabled. This could be a sign of an overseas release in the future.

Nintendo has announced the next Party Crash event for ARMS. It will be hosted between December 30 and January 2.

In the new Party Crash, Master Mummy and Twintelle are featured. The theme is “That’s a Wrap”.

If you haven’t heard about Party Crash previously, they temporarily take over the regular Party Match mode. ARMS players can then join in on some fast-paced fights and earn points to raise their Lab Level. When Party Crash ends, everyone who participates will gain in-game currency and badges depending on what Lab Level they reached.
