Thunderful and Maschinen-Mensch today announced Shores of Taishi for Curious Expedition 2, a new piece of DLC for the narrative roguelike adventure.
The DLC is highlighted by the new island type Celestial Shores, which contains a completely new set of tiles, a new game mechanic related to teleporting between islets, and the new Peacock Tribe. It also lets players recruit six new characters to their party, including Red Panda, Tanuki, Ghost Catcher and Warrior Peacock. That’s along with six new enemy types, four new locations, six new pieces of equipment, seven new Sanity Items, seven new Trophies, and four new levels to unlock.
Here’s the round-up of today’s Fire Emblem Heroes events, including a new Resplendent Hero, Summoning Focus and Forging Bonds event:
Famitsu has provided a release date on the Switch version of The Vagrant, which will be called Sword of the Vagrant. According to the magazine, it’s slated to launch this June.
Sword of the Vagrant was confirmed for Switch back in March 2020. A release window was not provided at the time.
Metroid Dread is now the series’ best-selling entry of all time, according to the latest data from Nintendo.
As we saw earlier today, Metroid Dread is at 2.90 million copies sold. That means it has overtaken Metroid Prime, which sold 2.84 million units.
In its latest financial results, Nintendo highlighted how Switch saw the highest level of software sell-through for a single hardware family from the company.
The console saw a 1.8 increase in software sales during the most recent fiscal year. Having hit 235.07 million units, that’s how the record was achieved.
Nintendo provided its financial results today, and alongside that, updated its list of million sellers. We have updated sales figures for a variety of Switch titles.
One of the big new releases is Kirby and the Forgotten Land. By the end of Nintendo’s reporting period, global sales were already at 2.65 million. Another new title is Pokemon Legends: Arceus, which has sold 12.64 million copies. We also see that Mario Kart 8 Deluxe remains the top dog with over 45.33 million.
Below is the full lineup of Nintendo million sellers on Switch for May 2022:
Alongside Nintendo’s financial results for May 2022, the company’s latest release schedule has been provided. It highlights upcoming projects from both a first and third-party perspective.
To be fair, there’s not a ton here that we didn’t already know. Bayonetta 3 is a title that we haven’t heard about in a number of months, but is at least still planned for 2023. Zelda: Breath of the Wild, which was already delayed to Spring 2023, has its updated release window here. Advance Wars also has no new date after being delayed indefinitely.
Here’s the complete schedule:
A new update has just gone live for Rocket League, bringing the game to version 2.15. While this update does provide a few bug fixes, it mostly focuses on Voice Chat functionality, making the feature available across all platforms.
Here are the full patch notes for Rocket League’s 2.15 version update:
A physical version of Rainbow Billy: The Curse of the Leviathan is planned, according to retailer listings. Places such as GameStop have it down for May 31, 2022. That could be a tentative date, but the main takeaway here is that the title will have a general launch at retailers.
Rainbow Billy: The Curse of the Leviathan has thus far been digital-only on Switch. Since its debut back in October, it’s only been offered via the eShop.
