The next new weapon coming to Splatoon 2 is the Sorella Brella. It’s identical to the Splat Brella in terms of stats, but comes with the Autobomb sub-weapon and the Splat Bomb Launcher special instead. It’ll be available on Saturday around noon in Japan and Australia, early in the morning in Europe and Friday night in North America.
Just one day before launch, NIS America has cancelled the release of the standard edition of Penny-Punching Princess in the UK. The publisher says that they discovered that “the orders for this title would not be able to be fulfilled by their proper release date” and thus they decided to cancel the game’s physical release in the UK entirely.
If you live in the UK, your only option for a physical copy of the game is the Limited Edition, which is available exclusively on the NIS America online store. Otherwise, you will have to buy the game digitally. Note that all of this only applies to the UK – the physical release of the game in other regions has not been affected.
Head past the break to read NIS America’s statement on the matter in full:
A new Legendary Summoning Focus is now live. It features 5 star versions of Robin: Fell Vessel, Tiki, Elise, Lucina, Lyn, Sakura, Nowi, Lute, Fjorm, Gunnthrá, Zelgius, and Ike. This summoning focus will be available until April 3rd.
Penny-Punching Princess lands on Switch in just a few days. For a look at the title, check out our gameplay video below.
