Tomonobu Itagaki is continuing to share a few details about Devil’s Third over on his Facebook page. Here’s a roundup of the latest information:

– Devil’s Third meaning has to do with music
– Might be referring to a “tritone,” a musical interval composed of three whole tunes or six half tones
– This is colloquially sometimes referred to as “The Devil’s Interval”
– Unknown right now if this is what he meant

On whether Devil’s Third will feature both a single and multiplayer campaign:

“We made this game for single play (campaign) and online online multiplay gamers. ‘Cuz I know I have to respond to expectations by both gamers. So, in fact, we invested double amount of resources than general development in this industry, to accomplish to develop this game. I can’t show you specific length of single play mode, ‘cuz we’re still tuning this game. But you can estimate the total length of single play mode, by my saying above.”

Itagaki also said that the specs for Devil’s Third, which includes framerate and resolution, are still being worked on.

Not exactly breaking news from the Squid Research Lab! The developers of the upcoming Wii U title, Splatoon, are now sharing official English updates through the game’s Tumblr page. Previously this was only being shared on a Japanese Twitter account so it’s nice to have an official English resource, even if it’s making me feel redundant. You can view the most recent update, including the picture above, there. All of the previous information we’ve posted is also on the Tumblr, which confirms that the one time I had a crack at translating their Twitter post it ended up being accurate. What a fluke!
