A preview of FAST Racing Neo from Nintendo World Report provides additional details about Shin’en’s upcoming racer. Read on below for a summary of the latest information.

– Sunhara Plains is among the game’s courses
– This level has flame torches everywhere and being hit by one of these is brutal
– Daitoshi Station is another track, set in space
– There is an open area where you have to fly between various asteroids and there is a very little room for error
– At another point in that same course, asteroids are also trying to crush you and that stuns players
– Storm Coast and Kamagori City are other new tracks
– Storm Coast makes hefty use of the switching mechanics and took place in the pouring rain
– Kamagori City is very short
– Every lap here is over in roughly 35 seconds
– Kamagori City has an old Nanostray boss in the background
– Other references can be found in the final version
– The stages shown so far aren’t how the final cups will be
– The design is nearly done, but there will be a lot of internal testing before submitting the game for release
– The full game will also feature a variety of modes including the Championships, Multi Player, Online Play and a harsher Hero Mode
– No smaller challenge levels like the previous game, but there will be other options will keep players engaged

Onimusha Tactics joined Golden Sun: The Lost Age as one of North America’s Wii U Virtual Console releases on Thursday. Check out some footage from the title below.

Image & Form is planning a game that connects SteamWorld Heist and SteamWorld Dig. That’s according to Brjann Sigurgeirsson, who shared the information during an interview with Power Up Gaming.

When asked if Steamworld Heist ties into Steamworld Dig, Sigurgeirsson said:

“It does, yeah. There are some flashbacks. But there is at least one game coming in between so that game is sort of going to tie them both backwards and forwards.”

Sigurgeirsson sadly didn’t provide any additional details. He was asked about what sort of game Image & Form has in mind, but only mentioned:

“I’m not sure. *Laughs* Well, I’m not sure I’m going to talk about it. *Laughs* Right now we’re sort of focusing on Heist so I don’t want to get into details about it.”
