Publisher 11 bit studios and developer Dead Mage today shared a content roadmap for the story-driven rogue-lite RPG Children of Morta. There’s plenty in store for 2020, as updates will continue into the new year.

Here’s a look as to what’s on the way:

The latest “Morgana Travel Report” video has been published by Atlus, revealing a host of new information about Persona 5 Scramble: The Phantom Strikers, including new location Sapporo, Persona fusion and more (credit goes to Persona Central for translating and compiling the information).

The next location the Phantom Thieves travel to on their trip around the country is Sapporo, a historical city famous for its architecture and hot springs. In Sapporo, the Phantom Thieves meet a politician named Mariko Hyodo (voiced by Kyoko Terase). She’s diligent and a hard worker, but her current popularity seems somewhat unusual. She’s also acquainted with Haru’s father. The Sapporo Jail turns out to be a city covered in ice. The Phantom Thieves will have to solve a variety of puzzles to progress – and they also get to do some snowboarding.

The second part of the Morgana Travel Report focuses on some game mechanics. Once again, thanks to his Wild Card ability, the protagonist can use multiple personas, and he can switch between them in battle. There are two ways to obtain new personas: picking up masks from defeated enemies and of course, the series staple, persona fusion. The Velvet Room occupants will aid you in creating new powerful personas. You can further strengthen personas by using Persona Points, which can be gained via fusion and as rewards from battling. These points can be used to level up personas and to increase their various parameters. Another returning feature are skill cards, which can be used to teach personas skills they wouldn’t normally learn.

Here’s the video introducing Sapporo:

Out this Spring in Japan, Bandai Namco has released a new trailer for Kotoba no Puzzle: Moji Pittan Encore, its enhanced version of the arcade puzzle game for Switch. This entry is based on the Wii title Kotoba no Puzzle: Moji Pittan Wii Deluxe and includes over 800 new levels as well as the inclusion of new words that didn’t exist at the time, like “Reiwa” for the new Reiwa Era.

No More Heroes 3

After No More Heroes 3 debuted its latest trailer at The Game Awards, animation company Studio Plumeau made note that an effect used in the video was essentially a copy of what it had previously created. It wasn’t clear how that ended up there, but some fans suggested that it was stolen from another outlet – not by Grasshopper Manufacture.

Thankfully, the dust has settled, and things have been resolved amicably. Studio Plumeau recently confirmed that the effect was purchased from the digital asset service Envato, and the team involved with No More Heroes 3’s trailer wasn’t aware of any wrongdoing. Unfortunately, a certain user was selling different assets made by many artists, including the one from Studio Plumeau. The two sides have talked and Grasshopper says “the matter has been officially resolved.”

Here are all of the relevant tweets:
