New information has released concerning Dragalia Lost’s future plans, and sadly, it seems that the game is nearing the end of its lifespan. It’s been announced that no new content is planned to be added past July 2022.
This comes to us through the game’s official website, with a post detailing what the remaining future of Dragalia has to offer. The last set of new adventurers will be added on March 31, 2022 and existing summoning showcases and event revivals will be recycled in the coming months. Beyond that however, the only content updates the game will receive will be for the main campaign and certain quests, with the main campaign itself set to end in July. The game itself will come to a close and end distribution some time after that, with more details to be provided in the future.

Nintendo has just released a new 14.0.0 firmware update for Switch, and it’s rather significant. Users can finally use a “groups” feature to help organize their games on the home menu.
To create a new group, go all the way to the right and select “All Software”. You can then press the “L” button to start an actual group. You can sort through your content by last time played, play time, title, and publisher. After this, you can even arrange how the software will be displayed. The final step is simply creating a group name.
