Level-5 has had a storied history with many iconic series on Nintendo systems, from the Professor Layton series to Inazuma Eleven among many others. One of the company’s earliest claims to fame however was Dragon Quest VIII.

In a recent interview with Yahoo Japan, Level-5 CEO Akihiko Hino detailed the events that led the company to developing a mainline entry in the iconic franchise. After expressing his disappointment with how certain aspects of Dragon Quest VII were handled, he was challenged by a producer to take on the project himself, leading to the development of one of the series’ most iconic entries.

We’ve translated Hino’s full comments after the jump.

Earlier this week, the roguelike adventure Cave Bad made it to Switch. Find some gameplay footage in the video below.

Among Us

Among Us has been updated on Switch, bringing the game to version 2021.2.21. Today’s patch introduces what Innersloth says is a “small feature”.

Quickchat is now available. The functionality is “an easier, faster and safer option to play if you’re using text chat”.

Also note that Innersloth says Among Us currently has a glitch with lobbies, so players may encounter issues for just a short while. The team is currently working on a fix. A bigger update is planned for the game in the future as well.
