Update: A translation posted on NeoGAF indicates that multiple missions/maps are likely to be involved, as opposed to just one of each. The translation also seems to suggest that Nintendo is “thinking” about DLC as opposed to “developing” it. But because Shigeru Miyamoto mentions that the team would like to deliver new content through the Internet “little by little”, I think it’s safe to say that DLC is coming.

Nintendo is working on new content for Pikmin 3. In an interview with Hobo Nikkan Itoi Shinbun, it was revealed that a new map and mission are scheduled for delivery in the future.

When these items will be available are not yet known. It’s also unclear if the DLC will be available for free or for a certain cost.

Nintendo confirmed co-op for The Wonderful 101 during E3 2013 last month. However, it has since been revealed that the game will offer an additional multiplayer mode.

According to The Wonderful 101’s official teaser site, Platinum Games has included some kind of battle mode. Nintendo’s page doesn’t say much about the feature, with a brief notice mentioning that the feature will allow players to “compete head-to-head in battle mode as one of the Wonderful Ones.”

Stay tuned for additional details.

Assassin’s Creed IV will tackle slavery, but won’t over-play it– “we’re going to focus on telling it like it was”

Posted on 11 years ago by Austin(@NE_Austin) in News, Wii U | 0 comments

“I wanted to treat slavery in the game. It’s a very delicate subject, obviously. But I thought the best way to approach it would be to make it a fact of life. Rather than go for any intense scenes of brutality to draw in your sympathy, I wanted something that was more low-key, but constant. We’re going to focus on telling it like it was.”

“It’s true that pirates were more egalitarian, but there was still quite a bit of bigotry at the time. Runaway slaves would often sail with pirates, but they were still not trusted with weapons, most of the time. I hope I deal with that in the script, very frankly.”

– ACIV lead writer Darby McDevitt
