Ubisoft is launching the first round of Assassin’s Creed III’s “Tyranny of King Washington” DLC this week. Thankfully, the Wii U will be receiving the content in just a few days. Ubisoft has confirmed that “The Infamy” will be available on Thursday.
LEGO City: Undercover contains a ton of content. It has a huge overworld that takes ten minutes just to drive a loop around, a lengthy story, and plenty of side content.
Executive producer Loz Doyle detailed some of Undercover’s non-story elements in an interview with ONM.
Speaking about the game’s side-activities, Doyle said:
“There’s so much more outside of the story. As a robber you can steal cars and try to outrun the police, take part in vehicle and free-running time trials, be a limousine driver, catch renegade aliens, rescue cats, put out fires… the list goes on and on.”
Hamster has opened a teaser site for Ninja JaJaMaru-kun: Princess Sakura and the Secret Dragon. Access it here.
Ninja JaJaMaru-kun: Princess Sakura and the Secret Dragon is the first new game in the “series” since the original game’s release in 1985. A DS game had been in the works at one point, but Jaleco shelved the project.
Notion Games has announced that it is now an official Wii U developer. The studio is currently working on Super Ubi Land for the eShop.

Ubisoft is sending out mysterious invitations for some sort of Assassin’s Creed event taking place next week. MCV writes on Twitter that the invite lists a February 27 date, which would be next Wednesday.
Might it be time for the reveal of Ubisoft’s next Assassin’s Creed game? During the company’s latest financial call, CEO Yves Guillemot teased that information would be shared “very soon”.
Not much is known about the next Assassin’s Creed. What we do know is that it will feature a new hero and time setting, and is being developed by an “all new team”.
The next Assassin’s Creed will launch before April 2014.
A new Professor Layton vs. Ace Attorney art book is now available. The product launched in Japan last week.
One of the book’s pages contains a rather interesting illustration. It seems that “Dark Phoenix” was initially considered for the 3DS game, but didn’t make the final cut for some reason.
I wonder… what other secrets does this art book hold?
