Two more goodies are confirmed for Sonic Lost World pre-orders in the UK and Mexico.

Those who pre-order the game from ShopTo (UK) or Gameplanet (Mexico) will receive a pair of DLC codes. The first is a golden RC Omochao gadget while the other is a 5-pack of Black Bomb Wisp Color power which can be used to bomb away enemies. Pre-ordered copies of Sonic Lost World also come with the previously-revealed Deadly Six Edition content.

No word yet on whether the two new DLC items will be made available in the US.

Watch_Dogs made its impressive debut at Ubisoft’s E3 conference last year. Subsequent footage hasn’t been as well-received, particularly one video featuring Aisha Tyler.

Creative director Jonathan Morin claims that Watch_Dogs’ visuals haven’t deteriorated. “It’s pretty much the opposite,” he told VideoGamer.

Morin explained:

“There’s no scale down in quality, especially the next-gen versions. It’s pretty much the opposite. What we showed at E3 2012 in a lot of respects was less good. I think it’s in the details. So no, there’s no scale down.”

And what of the disappointing Aisha Tyler video? Morin put the blame on internal “communications issues”.

SEGA has delayed the Japanese launch of Hero Bank.

Initially, the 3DS title was due out on December 19. However, Hero Bank’s opening movie confirms the delay. It’s now scheduled for release in spring 2014.

Hero Bank will cost 5,500 yen at retail when it’s available. The eShop version will cost 4,900 yen.

Conatus Creative previously expressed interest in bringing River City Ransom: Underground to the Wii U and 3DS. That interest has now translated into stretch goals on Kickstarter.

If River City Ransom: Underground manages to raise $320,000 CAD, the game will come to both eShops – Wii U and 3DS. It could be difficult to reach such a high amount with only 11 days remaining in the campaign, but it’s nonetheless encouraging to see both platforms included in the Kickstarter.

Thanks to Tim for the tip.

Although it had been hinted at in previous interviews, Image & Form has officially confirmed that a new entry in the SteamWorld Dig series is in development for the 3DS. Similar to its predecessor, the new title will be released on the 3DS eShop.
