Detective Pikachu 2

During the Pokemon Press Conference 2019, a number of experiences were announced, including a new Detective Pikachu game for Switch. We’ve essentially heard nothing about the project since then, but there’s a chance that it could be released fairly soon.

It’s been spotted that Jonathan Murphy, a senior programmer at Creatures Inc. and Pokemon TCG Development Division, specifically mentions that Detective Pikachu 2 is “nearing release”. An unannounced project is there as well.

DreamWorks Dragons: Legends of the Nine Realms launched today on Switch, and Bandai Namco have dropped a launch trailer to celebrate the game’s release.

Here’s some more information about the game, as well as the trailer:

Publisher Regista has announced that Moon Dancer will be making its way to Switch in the West very soon. The game had already released in Japan back in July, but it’ll now release in North America and Europe on September 29, 2022.

Moon Dancer is a sci-fi vertical shoot ’em up in which you control the titular ship Moon Dancer blasting your way through waves of enemies. The focus of this title is on your ability to lock-on to enemies before unleashing a barrage of lasers, which is your main method of attacking. The game features a standard Arcade mode as well as a 3-minute time attack Caravan mode, with local and online rankings available for both.

Here is an overview for Moon Dancer:

Host 714

QUByte Interactive is bringing the Tengukaze Studio-made stealth title Host 714 to Switch, the company has announced. It’s due out on September 29, 2022.

Project Winter Balance of Power update

Project Winter, the eight person social deception survival game, has released a free content update on Switch.

Starting today, players can access new craftable items. These include Smoke Bombs, “chilling explosives not only create a poof of smoke to obscure vision but also rapidly reduce survivors’ warmth.” Also included are the show shoes that eliminate traces of footprints and the loud crunch of snow-steps while also providing increased movement speed for a short time. Finally, the Sound Emitter sends out audio clips over a short amount of time and a very long distance before eventually self-destructing.

That’s actually not all, as UI changes, the removal of the ability to see characters who voted in the exile booth, increased max number of roles in matches, quality of life improvements, and more are included. You can find the full patch notes for today’s Project Winter update below.

Oceanhorn 2 physical

Limited Run Games today announced plans to produce a physical version of Oceanhorn 2: Knights of the Lost Realm on Switch.

Only a standard copy will be available. However, Limited Run is also planning the Oceanhorn fan bundle, which includes a copy of Oceanhorn and Oceanhorn 2 in an Arcadian slipcase (also available separately).
