Blocky blasters are included and you can access co-op multiplayer to fight alongside friends. Additionally, the free Transformers Hoodie is now available in the Dressing Room.

Megaton Muashi W Wired Megarobo Batroseum update

Level-5 pulled back the curtain on the next major update for Megaton Musashi W: Wired today, highlighted by the Megarobo Batroseum. Additionally, Koji Kabuto from Mazinger Z., Ryoma Nagare from Getter Robo, and Duke Fleed from UFO Robot Grendizer will be made available.

Speaking about the new content, Level-5 CEO Akihiro Hino said during today’s Level-5 Vision 2024 presentation: “For Megaton Musashi W: Wired, we’re getting ready to release significant new content. Until now, you had to enhance your Rogues to battle online. In the new mode, the ‘Megarobo Batroseum,’ you can just select a Rogue and jump straight into battle. In other words, you can join player-versus-player as easy as in a fighting game. Some famous pilots will also enter the fray, making the heated super-robot battles even more exciting. The new Batroseum Mode is set to release in November 2024. Please look forward to it!”

Zelda Echoes of Wisdom playable protagonist

The developers behind Echoes of Wisdom have opened up on the decision to make Zelda playable and take the starring role as the protagonist.

Interestingly, the team was actually thinking about Link having his standard role as the main character you play as. But as things progressed with the concept of echoes, Nintendo and Grezzo felt that the protagonist needed to be someone who lacked a sword and shield. 

Aonuma also acknowledged fan requests made over the years to see Zelda be the protagonist. After seeing the team struggle over who should be the main character in Echoes of Wisdom, it made sense for Zelda to be playable.

Aonuma and Grezzo director Satoshi Terada shared the following:

According to Level-5, Holy Horror Mansion is a ghost craft RPG. The game’s theme is “family”, meaning it’s something the whole family can enjoy together.

Inazuma Eleven Re

Level-5 just announced Inazuma Eleven Re, which is coming to Switch in 2026. This is a remake of the series’ first game.

Inazuma Eleven originally launched for the DS in 2008, but only in Japan. It would take three years for the title to reach the west, though then it was just Europe and Australia. North America finally got in 2014 as part of a new version for 3DS.
