Amazon is listing a 200-page book known as The Art and Making of Pokemon Detective Pikachu. It will contain concept art, interviews, and more. The premium hardcover book also features “a removable map of Ryme City, postcards, plus more memorabilia from the film that’s not available anywhere else.”
New sales data is in from the UK for the month of April 2019.
For the first time since January, Switch has taken over the Xbox One in terms of both unit sales and value in April. The company is also the best-selling publisher of the month, replacing Ubisoft at the top. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, Yoshi’s Crafted Word, and New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe were all in the top ten for the month.
VideoGamesPlus has announced that through a partnership with publisher PQube, the retailer will be selling an exclusive physical version of Tokyo School Life. Only 5,000 units will be produced worldwide.
Tokyo School Life released on the Switch eShop earlier this year. For those who haven’t heard about the visual novel previously, read up on the following overview:
In a recent news post sent out to Switch owners, Nintendo provided a listing of the top 15 European eShop downloads for April 2019.
Cuphead manages to come out on top for the month. Dragon’s Dogma: Dark Arisen, another new entry, also appears for the first time.
To promote today’s launch of Shadows of Adam on Switch, Circle Entertainment has prepared a new trailer. Watch it below.
BadLand Publishing has announced that the action-RPG roguelite Lovecraft’s Untold Stories is coming to Switch next week. The title, developed by Blini Games, will be out on May 10.
Here’s a bunch of information about Lovecraft’s Untold Stories, along with a trailer:
Last August, Child of Light creative director Patrick Plourde posted a photo that many interpreted as a sequel tease. That was actually a “four or five page” document that details a prequel, which he now regrets sharing.
Plourde shared those ideas for a prequel while speaking with VGC. It would be about childhood friends growing apart as they become adults. The game would also take some inspiration from the ballet Swan Lake while examining the nature of both love and friendship and how people change as they grow up. Visuals would remain similar to the original title, but the gameplay could be “a bit more operatic” and “slightly more adult”.
