First details about Cube Creator DX have leaked out of Famitsu. As translated by Gematsu, three modes are included:

– Survival Mode – Control your avatar and survive the cruel world. New weapons and materials have been added, and the variety of items you can craft have doubled. You can also recruit animals and monsters.
– Creator Mode – Freely create buildings and characters.
– Stage Builder Mode – Create your own stages, and then play those stages. You’ll be able to use a great number of “Gimmick Cubes,” such as dangerous traps and jumping trampolines.

Online support is also in Cube Creator DX. It will be possible to make buildings with other players and publish stages / worlds through the internet.

Cube Creator DX releases in Japan on April 27. It’ll be sold at retail for 2,800 yen, but a digital version will also be available for 1,852 yen.

Last March, a new Pokemon smartphone game known as Pokemon Comaster launched in Japan. It’s now been localized for North America and Europe as “Pokemon Duel”.

For those who haven’t heard about it previously, here’s a lengthy overview:

Pokémon Duel is a strategy board game that uses Pokémon figures. Build a deck with your favorite figures and then leap into a League Match! Compete with players from around the world for a chance to enter the top League rankings in League Matches. You’ll fight your rivals in real time! Win duels, get all kinds of cool figures and items, and make your deck stronger!

The rules are simple! The object is to be the first player to get one of your figures to your opponent’s goal. How will you get to the goal? You’ll need to carefully choose your route! In duels, you and your opponent take turns moving your figures. Set up a strategic formation and attack your opponent, or simply block their path—it’s all about tactics! Plan your strategy and defeat your opponents in this game of cat and mouse!

In duels, your deck is composed of 6 Pokémon figures. There are all kinds of figures, each with different moves and abilities. Keep this in mind as you build your own custom deck!

Make use of your custom deck and the AI! The AI is a reliable ally who will determine good moves and take your turn for you. Make full use of the AI and crush your opponents!

You can find Pokemon Duel on iOS here and Android here. It’s free-to-play, but there are in-app microtransactions of course.

The Japanese Twitter account for Splatoon posted a couple of updates today. Both focus on weapons in the game: Heavy Splatling and Slosher.

With the Heavy Splatling, the mounting angle of its distinctive barrel component and its parts configuration have changed, but its basic weapon characteristics have been kept in tact.

The Slosher features a change in handle and suspension parts. Similar to the Heavy Splatling and Slosher, other weapons in the game have had model changes to match the two year trend change.
