NIS America has revealed the newest character for SNK Heroines: Tag Team Frenzy. Mui Mui, who has been featured in SNK’s pachislot game series Dragon Gal, will be included on the roster.

Here’s an overview and trailer introducing the character:

Labyrinth of Refrain: Coven of Dusk

Nippon Ichi put out a new Japanese trailer for its Switch title Labyrinth of Refrain: Coven of Dusk. We’ve attached the video below.

Monster Hunter Generations Ultimate

Monster Hunter Generations Ultimate does have a listing on the European eShop. But in North America, that’s no longer the case. The page is missing, meaning you can’t pre-load the game in North America.

We have a feeling that this is just a minor mix-up. Capcom should put the page back before launch, and with the pre-load option. Even if that doesn’t happen, you should be able to purchase the digital version upon release.

Thanks to Nao★Mi (Rikaria) for the tip.

Sumikko Gurashi: Atsumare! Sumikko Town

Nippon Columbia is working on a second Sumikko Gurashi game for Switch. Announced today is Sumikko Gurashi: Atsumare! Sumikko Town, a town building title.

In Sumikko Gurashi: Atsumare! Sumikko Town, players will be able to build their own town and enjoy heartwarming communication between different characters.

Dragon Quest is no stranger to long localizations. It can take years for games to leave Japan after all. With Dragon Quest VII on 3DS for example, it took over three years for the RPG to reach North America and Europe.

Dragon Quest XI producer Yuu Miyake spoke about this with Game Informer. Due to the large amount of text in each game and creator Yuji Horii’s dedication to the translation, it can take quite some time for different entries in the series to appear around the world.
