Pokemon announcements are expected later today as part of a new Pokemon Presents presentation. However, it seems that news about upcoming Switch projects have leaked early.
The news first came about from PracticalBrush12, who has an incredibly reliable track record. This person actually leaked almost everything from last week’s Nintendo Direct before it aired. Images and a video also back up this person’s claim.
PracticalBrush12 shares the following:
PAKO Caravan is launching on Switch next week. Check out some gameplay ahead of time with the video below.
PAKO Caravan is scheduled to launch digitally on the Switch eShop on March 3.
A free DLC is now available for download for Truck Driver. This expansion adds a new damage system as well as secret locations not visible on the game’s map. Check out an overview and trailer for the DLC below.
A new update is available for Romance of the Three Kingdoms XIV: Diplomacy and Strategy Expansion Pack Bundle that includes quite a few bug fixes, check out the patch notes below.
A new variation of Claude from Fire Emblem: Three Houses has been added to Fire Emblem Heroes. Claude: King of Unification will be available in a Legendary Hero summoning showcase with a 8% chance of summoning his five star version.
Claude will also be added to Special Maps and 9 Mythic and Legendary Hero Battles for players to take on. These battles will give out special rewards such as blessings, Orbs, and accessories. Both of these additions will last until March 4, 2021 at 10:59pm PT.
There is also a new map in the Tactics Drills – Fódlan-Almyra Alliance. A picture of this map layout is included below.
The newest Gala Dragalia has gone live in Dragalia Lost. This summoning showcase features the five star versions of Ryszarda and the dragon Gala Reborn Jeanne. This will run until March 3, 2021.
Also live now is a new facility event, Divine Deception. This event brings a brand new facility, the cleansing fount. The cleansing fount increases the stats of adventurers who use daggers or manacasters and also increases the damage they do in event quests. A new log-in bonus is running in unison with this and it will be live until March 10, 2021.
The Master Fair Scout for the sync pair of Leon & Charizard is live now. This will give a 12% chance to scout a five star version of Leon’s sync pair, and it will have a Master Passive Skill in addition to its regular Passive skill.
Alongside this is a Poke Fair Scout for the sync pair of Marnie & Morpeko. This sync pair will have a 10% of being scouted and can now be elevated to six star EX.
Finally, a story event (entitled Champion Time) has began with a focus on Leon & Charizard. Players can progress through an event map to earn custom power-ups for Leon & Charizard as well as Marnie & Morpeko. All of these events will run until March 17, 2021 at 9:59pm PT.
