Over The Moon brought The Fall to Wii U two years ago. The second part of the trilogy, Unbound, is now confirmed for launch on Wii U in Q1 2017.

Over The Moon is hoping to bring in new players by discounting the first game. Expect a discount of 80-90 percent sometime this month.

Mortar Melon now has a release date in Europe. On the eShop, the game will release on August 11 for €5.00.

Here’s an overview:

“Drag the mortar, aim, and fling the melon to collect the fruit! Whizzing through the air you’ll fly across the world, tapping and dragging your environment to release the juicy goods! Look out for pointy objects or you’ll explode on impact, sending melony chunks and pips flying! It’s a crazy, fruity, physics machine.”

Mortar Melon previously launched in North America last August.

Indie developer 4AM Games has been working on Peasant Knight, a new puzzle-platformer. Now we know that a 3DS version is happening thanks to some assistance from Ratalaika Games. Ratalaika is implementing an in-game level editor as well as map sharing.

Here’s a little more information about Peasant Knight:

“Peasant Knight is a puzzle-platformer. With a twist. You’re relentlessly dashing into the face of danger, namely traps like suddenly erupting flame pits. You can only go forward! Or stop.

The game challenges your muscle memory and eye-hand coordination, but I want most of the thrill to come from solving levels, each level is like a complex machine of traps that you need to grasp and navigate through.”

Peasant Knight doesn’t have a release date just yet. Look for it within the coming months.

We previously mentioned that Quest of Dungeons has a September 1 release date in Europe on Wii U. The 3DS version is still coming, but it’s in lot check at the moment – meaning no date yet. As for North America, both versions are pending (though still planned of course).

Quest of Dungeons will cost €8.99. Even better, when both versions are available, cross-buy will be supported. Buying the game on Wii U will net you the 3DS version for free, and vise versa.

Quest of Dungeons will support off-TV play and the Pro Controller on Wii U. The 3DS version officially has StreetPass functionality, in which you encounter the ghost of another player’s failed attempts and try to kill/loot.
