Takahisa Taura was given his first shot at directing a game with Astral Chain. He had worked as a designer for a full decade prior, but that wasn’t enough to offset a bit of the uneasiness he felt.
Taura spoke about the distress he experienced while developing Astral Chain in a previous issue of Famitsu, which also featured supervisor Hideki Kamiya from PlatinumGames and Yoko Taro from Square Enix. It was Kamiya who ended up guiding him through while the team was “trying to nail down the action mechanics.”

One of the new aspects of Bowser’s Fury in Super Mario 3D World for Switch involves Bowser Jr. The character will be with you along the way and provides help by fighting enemies as well as uncovering power-ups. A friend can even play as Bowser Jr. in local co-op.

Here’s a look at the settings:
