Switch

With a number of Switch games requiring an extra download, we’ve seen all sorts of banners included on the box. This is included so that consumers are fully aware of what they’re purchasing.

Mega Man Legacy Collection 1 + 2 is one such release that carries the notice. However, compared to the original boxart, Capcom has made a change.

LEGO The Incredibles

LEGO The Incredibles has about a month to go until launch. As a result, Warner Bros. has now made a pre-load option available on the eShop.

You’ll need 8.0GB of free space to download LEGO The Incredibles on Switch. If you do so, you can receive the Parr Family Vacation Character Pack for free. Just be sure to pre-load by June 15 in order to be eligible.

Here’s a rundown of what’s included in the pack:

When the new Splatoon 2 Octotune soundtrack comes to Japan in July, it’ll be accompanied by a limited edition. Play-Asia is now taking pre-orders here.

Aside from the soundtrack, this version of the soundtrack includes a Blu-ray of a recording from the Inkopolive performance at the Tokaigi 2018.

There, she got infected by something..but that didn’t stop her from making music:

SEGA tends to have a big presence at SXSW when it comes to Sonic. During a panel at the event in March, the company announced Sonic Mania Plus, a new Sonic Mania Adventures animated series, and more. Also at the very end, fans were treated to a teaser of what we pretty much know is some sort of Sonic racing game.

SEGA has been keeping quiet on that mystery project since that initial teaser. But during an official live stream this week, fans were given an indication that news is coming soon.
