Nevermind what we said the other day about all of the Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Dual Destinies DLC coming to the west. While Capcom will be bringing most of it over, there will be at least one key omission.

A Capcom staff member has confirmed that Dual Destinies’ quiz DLC won’t be available overseas:

“Unfortunately, the quiz DLC won’t be coming to western territories since it requires an in-depth knowledge of Japanese culture.”

Just a few days ago, Capcom confirmed that Dual Destinies’ costume DLC and new chapters will be available in both North America and Europe.

Adventure Time: Explore the Dungeon Because I DON’T KNOW! will include multiplayer – it just won’t be online.

Kotaku has confirmed that the new game from WayForward won’t allow players to experience any dungeon-crawling elements over the Internet. Instead, you’ll have to settle for the local four-player co-op option.

Infinity Ward is handling the primary development of Call of Duty: Ghosts. However, the newly announced Wii U version is being made by an entirely different company – though one that Nintendo fans should be familiar with. As you would probably expect, Treyarch is working on the project.

This news should come as no surprise to most gamers. Treyarch was responsible for Black Ops II on Wii U last year, and the studio previously developed a majority of the Call of Duty Wii titles.
