Mouldy Toof Studios and Team17 pulled back the curtain on a new prison in The Escapists 2. The two sides are introducing Rattlesnake Springs, located in the Old West.
“Sneak around the sheriffs, make friends with the compound’s horses and explore the dark mine below the prison in the wildest lockup yet,” Team17 says about the prison. Players can team up with three friends to break out of Rattlesnake Springs with online or local play later this year.
Here’s a new trailer for The Escapists 2:

A quick update on Hey! Pikmin: we now know that the 2D Pikmin spin-off game is being developed by Arzest. Nintendo themselves have not released that information yet – we know that because the game recently received an age rating in Australia (G – General, suitable for everyone) and Arzest was listed as the developer.
Arzest have previously worked on Yoshi’s New Island and the 3DS version of Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games.
Nintendo of Europe have released a new trailer for Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. As the name implies, this trailer gives a brief overview of what’s new in the Deluxe version on Nintendo Switch – new racers, new items, a revamped battle mode and more.
The official Splatoon Twitter account has posted a few new screenshots from Splatoon 2. These highlight the amiibo functionality in Splatoon 2, i.e. saving your outfits, gear and customization options to an amiibo as well as being able to take photos of your character alongside the amiibo. Nothing really new, but these screenshots do show off some the outfits that are in the game.
Just like they did for Michalis, the Fire Emblem Heroes Twitter account has revealed the team with the collective lowest rarity that successfully beat the recently held Navarre Grand Hero Battle. No singers or dancers were used and the units had no skills inherited. The team was 3-star Donnel, 3-star Sophia, 2-star Wrys and 3-star Michalis, all of them at level 40.
So there you have it – you don’t need to be lucky and have tons of 5-star units to beat the toughest challenges Fire Emblem Heroes has to offer.
