Pokemon GO appears to be getting daily quests, based on new information players have found through data mining.

After poking through the app’s latest update, Niantic is planning three types of quests. These include “First Catch of The Day” as well as “First PokeStop of the Day”.

At the moment, it’s unclear what rewards daily quests will provide, though code references incubators. Also, while we don’t know when this feature is going live, it seems that Niantic can easily turn it on at any point.

We’ll let you know when we hear anything official about daily quests in Pokemon GO.

Lost in Shadow is due out on the North American Wii U eShop tomorrow as a Wii download, according to Nintendo’s website. The game was made available digitally in Europe back in July.

“When a boy becomes separated from his shadow, he must journey along with a sylph named Spangle to unlock the mysteries across the land shaded by the looming Tower. You will need to battle and find aid amongst the shadows as you manipulate light and traverse this alternate land where even gravity isn’t a factor.”

Lost in Shadow will cost $19.99 when it launches on the eShop.

In 2011, CatfishBlues Games created the “arcade action game” known as Hyperlight for mobile. The title is now making the jump to New 3DS with several additional features.

Hyperlight EX is coming to the North American and Eurpoean 3DS eShops next month. It’ll feature revamped graphics, enhanced gameplay, and better controls.

Here’s an overview:

“Hyperlight is an high intensity arcade action game in which you control a spaceship that fights against hordes of evil alien monsters in a virtual cosmic environment. Your spaceship has a special capability: it can travel at a Faster Than Light speed (F.T.L.) becoming itself the final weapon. By colliding with enemies in this state the ship can instantly destroy everything it touches! In the game there are also plenty of other bonus, weapons and entities that can help you overcome the many difficulties you’ll be facing, including the battles against the terrific final bosses that await you in the dark side of the universe!”

And a lineup of features:

– Full New Nintendo 3DS controller support.
– Stereoscopic 3D viewing only for New Nintendo 3DS!
– Stunning game graphics, rich in special effects, enemies and explosions!
– Innovative gameplay, immediate and highly rewarding!
– Arcade Mode with 50+ levels, 8 mid-boss stages and 4 final boss battles!
– Infinity Mode with tons of new levels and several mid-boss stages.
– Panic Mode with its peculiar tilt control (uses accelerometer)
– 3 Bonus entities (Drones, Turrets and Plasma Barriers) that will help you in fighting the continuous waves of enemies.
– 7 Bonus weapons (Bomb, Laser, Globe, Crystal, Machinegun, Missle and Virus) that will help you in pulverizing everything on the screen.
– Local Leaderboads for Arcade, Infinity and Panic game modes.
– Achievements system: 40 unlockable medals!

Watch a trailer for Hyperlight EX below.
