Pokemon Tretta Lab may be heading westward. A couple of trademarks have been registered in the US which may have something to do with the 3DS game. Poketretta Battles and Poketretta Tournament are both official names in the states.

In other news, Pokefigure Arena and Pokefigure have also been registered in the US. Could these have something to do with a Wii U game involving NFC figures?

Rayman Origins and Rayman Legends were the first two games to make use of the UbiArt engine. And just a few days ago, Ubisoft confirmed that its new project Child of Light will be built on the same technology.

Interestingly, Child of Light isn’t the only upcoming title to feature the UbiArt engine. More are on the way, Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot confirmed to Game Informer, though he wouldn’t divulge any specifics. You can at least rest easy knowing that “many” UbiArt games are on the way.

Plump Valkyrie has not been announced as an actual game just yet. Maybe we’ll be hearing about it in the future?
