The latest issue of Weekly Jump magazine contained some new information on Dragon Quest Builders 2 (thanks to Gematsu for the translation). First up, some details on the game’s story: when the protagonist is washed ashore on the vacant island where the game takes place, they hear a mysterious voice telling them to go to the top of the island’s mountain. There, they find a mysterious stone monument bearing five crests. There are also numerous stone pillars on the island which are engraved with trials, which the protagonist must pass if they want to become a “Master Builder”.

There are also some new and improved gameplay elements compared to the first game, such as diving, gliding with the wind mantle, dashing, waterfalls and making diagonally-shaped blocks.

Earlier in the month, an interview was published with Nintendo Labo director Tsubasa Sakaguchi, Switch director / Nintendo Labo producer Kouichi Kawamoto, and Nintendo Labo hardware lead Mr. Ogasawara. The developers had plenty to say about the new initiative for Switch during that discussion.

Today, the second portion was published online. The three developers had even more interesting things to share, including prototypes, why cardboard is used, and more.

You can read the next part of the interview below.

Nintendo Labo

Nintendo has previously said that replacement parts would be offered for Nintendo Labo. Now that it’s launching tomorrow, the company’s online store has updated as promised.

A bunch of different parts are available, ranging from $1.99 up through $13.99. For the full set, continue on below.

Exquisite Gaming is preparing a new type of accessory, and it’s quite a bit different from the norm. The “XL Crash Bandicoot Cable Guy” lets the famous gaming character hold your Switch for you – or even a tablet, PlayStation and Xbox controllers.

The model stands at 12″ tall in case you’re wondering. It also claims to be officially licensed, so that’s encouraging.

You can pre-order the XL Crash Bandicoot Cable Guy on Amazon here. It’s slated for June 15.


Amazon now has a listing up for Disgaea 1 Complete. Along with the boxart pictured above, we have confirmation that the standard version will cost $49.99.
