A new Smash Bros. presentation will be held on June 14, Nintendo has announced. Masahiro Sakurai, director of the Wii U and 3DS games, is leading the proceedings.

Here’s the breakdown of relevant times:

– 7:40 AM PT
– 10:40 AM ET
– 3:40 PM in the UK
– 4:40 PM in Europe

In an announcement sent out to the media, Nintendo says Sakurai will be outlining the details of Lucas’ inclusion in Smash Bros., the new Miiverse stage on Wii U, and Mii Fighter costumes inspired by Splatoon. It’s unclear what else – if anything – will be shown.

We finally have a confirmation that Terraria is in the works for Wii U and 3DS. Ratings for both versions have been listed on various retailers and ratings boards, but publisher 505 Games never made an official announcement. While that still hasn’t changed, developer Re-Logic stepped forward with a confirmation of their own.

“Terraria is indeed coming to Wii U and 3DS,” lead developer Whitney Baird noted on the game’s forum.

We don’t have any information beyond this, but at least we can finally say that Terraria is bound for both of Nintendo’s platforms. I imagine we’ll be hearing more soon enough!

Rhythm Heaven is out this week in Japan and we’ve got a couple of new details about the game. First of all, the game features a multiplayer mode where 2 to 4 people can play together. Best of all, it supports Download Play, which means that only one copy of the game per multiplayer session is required. Via Streetpass you’ll be able to share your play data with other players. The game will also have Spotpass functionality.

We’ve also got a couple new screenshots of the game. Check them out in the gallery below:

A Western release date for Rhythm Heaven: The Best Plus has not yet been announced. Who knows, maybe we’ll hear something at E3 next week?

The last time I played through Xenoblade Chronicles was just after its European release in 2011, so I’ll let the other staff writers with fresher memories of it handle the actual game of the month. Instead, I’d like to take a not-so-brief look back at the history of the game’s developer, Monolith Soft, and the games they developed prior to Xenoblade. There are plenty of recurring themes, gameplay elements and staff involved, so let’s see how almost a decade of developing RPGs shaped this robot-slaying, god-climbing adventure.
