Another couple of screenshots have come in for Splatoon. This time around, we get to hear about “Octo Valley”. View both of the images below.

This is ‘Octo Valley’ – the starting point for Hero Mode.
Cap’n Cuttlefish lives here watching over the Octarians.
He’s not lonely, though. Heroes are destined to live a life of solitude.
He tells you that he hasn’t seen his grandchild recently…without you even needing to ask.

The Octarians live under the ground in Octo Valley.
Connecting their headquarters to the surface is this kettle-shaped transportation device.
Undoubtedly, the Octarians have set a trap and now lay in wait.
No time for carelessness! Ah, if only I was a little bit younger!

The developers behind Ralin-Dwarf Wars have confirmed their intentions to bring the game to Wii U. A release date hasn’t been determined, however.

Haven’t heard of Ralin-Dwarf Wars before? Then check out the handy overview below, and a video above.

The set of this epic game are the Dwarven Halls, smoothly lightened in the warm glow of the fire torches. Explore them and discover the scenery that takes place in the middle of War – Goblins vs Dwarfs. The player´s role is a dwarf who sacrifices his life to protect the treasures of his dwarf clan, mined with their sweat and blood. Hack and Slay the wicked thieves who nastily sneaked into the dwarf halls and steal the precious treasures. The gameplay is a combat with hand to hand weapons. The dwarves are picking up their hammer and protect what is precious to them. They do not appreciate the Goblin intrusion!
