Original: River City Girls 2 appears to have a release date in the west, and according to an eShop listing, it will be launching next week. The store page has it down for December 15, 2022.

The game just came out in Japan a few days ago. WayForward recently said it needed “a bit more time” for the North American and European launch “in order to deliver the best, most full-featured experience possible.” However, the company said that the overseas release is still expected by the end of 2022. Obviously there are only a few weeks remaining in the year, but assuming the eShop listing is correct, we’ll be seeing the title very soon.

pokemon scarlet violet exp farm

A new method has been discovered that lets players easily and passively farm EXP in Pokemon Scarlet and Pokemon Violet.

The games already have one feature, known as “Let’s Go”, in which a Pokemon can walk alongside you while exploring the Paldea region outdoors. This creature can then be sent off to fight other Pokemon with Auto Battles. With Auto Battles, experience can be earned without players having to designate orders. However, the new technique players have found takes this to another level for an arguably better EXP farm in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet.
