ConcernedApe, the developer of Stardew Valley, just unveiled its next game Haunted Chocolatier.
The two titles are similar in that they’re both a “town game”. Players will move in to a new town “and try your hand at a new way of living.” That means talking with townspeople, achieving your goals, and making progress in a number of ways. But Haunted Chocolatier is described as more of an action RPG, and the chocolate shop is the focal point rather than a farm. It’s also been said that there are no plans for multiplayer at this time.
If you’ve been interested in Capcom Arcade Stadium but have yet to get invested in the release, you’ll be happy to hear that the games have now been made available for individual purchase.
Prior to today, the full set of titles were only available in bundles. Capcom released Pack 1: Dawn of the Arcade (’84 to ’88), Pack 2: Arcade Revolution (’89 to ’92), and Pack 3: Arcade Evolution (’92 to’ 01). Each one is priced at $1.99, though Ghosts ‘n Goblins is currently $0.99. Also remember that 1943 -The Battle of Midway is available for free.
As a recap, here’s the full list of individual games in Capcom Arcade Stadium:

Ubisoft already released a Monopoly game on Switch a few years ago, but has just announced Monopoly Madness. The new title will be available for Nintendo’s console on December 9.
Monopoly Madness has players competing to buy and upgrade properties in Monopoly City while Mr. Monopoly is away on a vacation. The game features a frantic, real-time race without the boundaries of the board. Players can compete with up to five others as they collect money and other resources around the map in order to buy and upgrade their properties. The more properties players own, the more points they’ll earn, which brings them closer to the finish line.
