Medabots Classics Plus

Medabots Classics Plus is in development for Switch, Imagineer has announced. It will launch in Japan on November 12.

Medabots Classics Plus, split into Kabuto and Kuwagata versions, includes eight titles and sixteen total versions from the Game Boy, Game Boy Color, and Game Boy Advance eras. A number of features will be included such as the ability to save and load at any time, skip battles, and increase gameplay speed. Players can also view the original manuals. For the Switch release, players can easily complete mini-games by pressing and holding the button rather than button mashing.

Hardcore Mecha

Lightning Games and RocketPunch Games have set a final release date for the Switch version of Hardcore Mecha, the mecha action game. It will launch on October 15.

Hardcore Mecha will have a physical release, and all six paid DLC items from the previous launch on other platforms will be included. Players can receive four brand new mecha designs, two new pilots, three main character pilots, and five main character mecha painting sets.

Play-Asia is taking pre-orders for the physical version from Asia here. English is supported. You can also learn more about the title here.

In Masahiro Sakurai’s latest column in Famitsu, the Super Smash Bros. director detailed more positives and negatives of working from home. During this period, he’s realized that suddenly making a home environment into a work environment is easier said than done, noting that it’s hard to work efficiently without proper ergonomic seating, desk space, and partitioning.

Sakurai decided to do what he could to help all the staff members working from home, as he described in the column, via our translation:

Nippon Ichi Software has issued a new batch of details and screenshots for Shoujo Jigoku no Doku Musume. Aside from information regarding the world map and actions, we also have an update on additional girls of Maiden Hell.

Here’s the full rundown, courtesy of Gematsu:

Namcot Collection

Bandai Namco has issued a Japanese commercial for Namcot Collection. Get a look at the advert below.

In North America and Europe, Namcot Collection will be offered as the Namco Museum Archives Vol 1 and 2. Both are due out in the west on June 18.

Lycanroc

Rockruff was first introduced in Pokemon Sun and Pokemon Moon. In those games, depending on the version you had, it could evolve into different forms of Lycanroc. These Pokemon have now finally returned in Pokemon Sword and Pokemon Shield as part of today’s new Isle of Armor DLC. Thankfully, it looks like you don’t have to purchase both games in order to obtain the pair of evolution forms.

Rockruff now evolves into Lycanroc Midday or Midnight depending on the time of day only. That’s all there is to it – there’s no version exclusivity.

As a reminder, Rockruff has a third evolution form. You can get your hands on the Dusk Form if Rockruff has the ability “Own Tempo” and having it evolve at dusk. Dusk Form Lycanroc has a rare chance of showing up in a Max Raid Battle in Pokemon Sword/Shield, though you can also go the breeding route or move it over if you happen to own one in the 3DS games.
