Chapter 15: Light and Shadow has received an interlude featuring Julietta at the forefront, running from Perditionists. The Fractured Futures raid event will have Audric at the player’s side and they can increase their friendship with him to permanently add him to their roster. And then there is a Platinum Showcase featuring Chthonius, AC-011 Garland, and Styx, as well as a Summoning Showcase featuring them as well.
The Summon Showcase and Platinum Showcase will run until 10:59pm PT on September 26, 2020, and The Fractured Futures raid event will last until 10:59pm PT on September 29, 2020.
Dragalia Lost’s second anniversary is on the horizon and there seems to be a lot planned for the celebration. To start, there is a countdown bonus live right now which gives any player who logs in two summon vouchers for up to six days (the sixth consecutive day will give four vouchers). This will run until 10:59pm PT on September 26, 2020.
Next up, a Dragalia Digest video presentation will air on the Nintendo Mobile YouTube channel on September 24, 2020 at 8:00pm PT. This will bring news about the second anniversary and detail the features coming in the celebration.
Finally, there has been a website opened for the second anniversary of Dragalia Lost, where all the new features and information on the event will be gathered. The website can be found here and while most of the information is marked as “Coming Soon,” it will most likely update after the Dragalia Digest.
Moster Hunter Rise gets a double pack in Japan, including a digital and physical version of the game
It seems that Japan is getting another exclusive edition of Monster Hunter Rise for the Switch. This special game package, which roughly translates to “Hunting friend double pack,” features two copies of the game (one digital and one physical) as well as some downloadable content. All of this comes in a sleek box for 15,254 yen or around $145.
It seems the extra content has raised the price, as this double pack is $25 more than what two versions of the game would cost. Roughly translated, what this digital content includes is:
- Recovery medicine Great x 80
- Sweetbread trap x 10,
- Demon dust x 20
- Hardened dust x 20
- Life dust x 20
- Armor ball x 30
- “Item pack” useful for cooperative play and hunting
Whether or not this is worth it is up to Japanese consumers, as it seems unlikely that this edition will come to the West. It’s specifically marketed towards Switch owners who want to play the game with a friend, so it’s possible that the online play is pretty extensive in the game.
We’ll just have to see when Monster Hunter Rise launches on March 26, 2021.
It’s time for the latest Famitsu’s most wanted games chart. This week, Zelda: Breath of the Wild 2 is still the top Nintendo title while Bravely Default II is back in the top five.

An ad in Japan is leading to speculation that the next DLC character for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate will be announced soon. It’ll only be up until October 4, and based on previous patterns, Nintendo may have news to share in the very near future.
A similar situation has occurred with 7-11 ads in Japan. With Hero and Banjo & Kazooie for instance, their ads were set to be removed by a certain date, and their DLC release took place just a few days before they were taken down.
