Sonic Mania 2

With the success of the original game, some were surprised by the fact that we never ended up seeing Sonic Mania 2. It turns out there was actually some initial interest on SEGA’s part, but things ultimately weren’t meant to be.

Classic Sonic is now going in a new direction with the previously-revealed Sonic Superstars. Arzest is taking the lead with Naoto Ohshima (who worked on the series’ original games) on board for the project, but the Sonic Mania team isn’t involved.

LEGO 2K Drive Creators Hub

2K and the LEGO Group just announced a major Creators Hub update for LEGO 2K Drive. Once installed, players will be able to share their vehicle designs with the world and browse / download creations from others.

The Creators Hub menu first puts players in the Depot, “where the hottest vehicles on the block are showcased.” There they can check out the Most Upvoted and Most Downloaded creations from the community.

Here’s a rundown of different features:

Pokemon Scarlet and Pokemon Violet just started up another distribution, and players now have a chance to claim some sandwich ingredients.

The games are giving out bananas, butter, peanut butter, and red Poke Ball picks. You’ll get five of each by redeeming the latest Mystery Gift code. Remember that sandwiches can restore a Pokemon’s HP and have the ability to offer some other effects.

Fashion Dreamer release date

Original: Fashion Dreamer – made by Style Savvy studio Syn Sophia – now has a release date on Switch.

The Switch title is confirmed to be launching on November 3, 2023. That news has technically only been confirmed for Europe, but as XSEED and Marvelous tend to coordinate the same timing for North America, we should be seeing it around the same time stateside. Note that Japan will technically be getting the game a bit earlier, as it’s scheduled for November 3 in the region.

Once again, many adjustments are planned for weapons, sub weapons, and special weapons. Another slew of bug fixes are coming as well.

Note that players can look forward to the next update at the end of the current season, with Nintendo largely focusing on more weapon balance adjustments and adding features for the new season beginning in September.
