Dragalia Lost has begun its next summoning showcase and this one is called the Prize Showcase. Summoning in this showcase gives players a prize in addition to their summoned adventurer/dragon. The prizes can come in these tiers: platinum prize, gold prize, silver prize, bronze prize, fifth prize, and sixth prize and the featured adventurer is Alberius (shadow/sword) and dragon is High Chthonius (shadow). This summoning showcase will last until April 9, 2021.
Also, co-op has been added for Lilith’s Encroaching Shadow on Master difficulty. Players can now fight in the Rise of the Sinister Dominion together.
NEO: The World Ends With You could be close to getting a release date. The game has received a content rating from the review boards in Australia and Germany on March 18, 2021. These ratings could suggest that the game is close to being released, but they also have a tendency to be misleading.
Take this information with a grain of salt, but do expect some information on NEO: The World Ends With You to come out soon.
The battle/shoot ’em up Maiden & Spell has been given an official release date by publisher Nippon Ichi Software. The game is coming to Switch on April 8, 2021 and will be 1,300 yen.

Pokemon Home has received a new update on Android devices (and seemingly it will come soon to iOS as well). This update functions to fix a small bug where players were not automatically rerouted to the app after linking a Nintendo account.

You may recall that Mario had a prominent appearance during the 2016 Summer Olympics. The character popped up during the closing ceremony, and Japan’s prime minister – complete with the plumber’s hat – even came out of a Warp Pipe.
Tokyo is set to host the latest Olympics, and it looks like there were some initial talks of featuring Mario again. Shukan Bunshun managed to obtain a nearly 300-page proposal for the event that ultimately wasn’t realized. It shows that an 8-bit Mario would have closed things out.
Here’s a look at the relevant page:
Following yesterday’s Sol Cresta announcement from PlatinumGames, the title now has a release window. The shoot ’em up game will launch on Switch in 2021, the studio has confirmed.

You can find the trailer for Sol Cresta here.
