Transformers Battlegrounds launches on Switch today. Check out the launch trailer below.
A new Summoning Event is now live in Fire Emblem Heroes, Heroes with Tactic Skill. In this 5-star Summoning Focus, Heroes with Tactic skills grant up to +6 to a certain stat to certain allies within 2 spaces for 1 turn at the start of their turn. The Heroes featured are: Catria: Mild Middle Sister, Ylgr; Fresh Snowfall, and Camilla: Light of Nohr. This event will be active until November 3.
Dragalia Lost has added some new content as well as releasing info on an upcoming facility event. Live in the game now is the summoning showcase Dulcet Delights which features a better chance to get the five star versions of Valentine’s Melody (wind/axe), Valentine’s Addis (shadow/bow), and Epimetheus (shadow).
This will run alongside a Platinum Showcase that has started, which focuses on the water-attuned adventurers Pinon and Mitsuba. Both of these will last until 10:59pm PT on October 29, 2020.
Also added to the game is chapter 16 of the main story, New Bonds. This will allow a brand new adventurer to join players’ rosters after completing it.
And, finally, a new facility event is coming to the game on October 26, 2020 at 11:00pm PT. This will have players fighting against bosses attuned with the light element, and a trailer for this event can be seen below.
It seems the classic Playstation adventure game, Kowloon’s Gate, is getting a sequel after 23 years, and it’s planned for a Switch release. This sequel is called Kowloon’s Rhizome: A Day of the Fire, and its publisher KGProject has created a campaign for the game on the crowdfunding site Campfire to raise funds.
It seems likely this game will be funded, as it has already met half its goal with over 65 days still to go. The planned release is for Japan in Fall 2021, and it will be coming to Switch if funded.
Check out a trailer for the game below and also feel free to look at the crowdfunding page for more specific details.
The ongoing short anime series, Pokemon Twilight Wings, is getting a new episode on November 5, 2020. In their announcement, the Pokemon Company mentioned that this episode will take place in the location of the Pokemon Sword/Shield Expansion Pass.
It is not specified if it will be in the Crown Tundra or the Isle of Amor, but this will be revealed when the episode drops at 7:00 AM PT on the Pokemon Company’s official YouTube.
It seems that Pokemon Sword/Shield players in Japan will have a chance to unlock exclusive in-game rewards due to a promotion starting November 20, 2020. According to Serebii, when Japanese players purchase certain Pokemon merchandise (including cards) after this start date, they will receive a code for one of many in-game Pokemon/Poke balls.
The prizes include: Genesect, 20 Cyrite Ore, Fast Ball, Level Ball, Love Ball, Volcanion, Moon Ball, Heavy Ball, Friend Ball, Lure Ball, Marshadow, Safari Ball, Sport Ball and Master Ball. It’s unclear how long this promotion will last, but hopefully many players will be able to grab these items and Pokemon before they are gone.
Following the release of The Crown Tundra expansion for Pokemon Sword and Pokemon Shield, a bunch of footage has popped up online. Get a look at plenty of gameplay in the video below.
