Level-5

Snack World

Level-5 has provided an official update regarding the status of Snack World in the west. The franchise will debut in the west next year, the company announced today.

Here’s the official blurb from Level-5:

Snack World: The Dungeon Crawl Gold was classified in Australia today. That should be the English name for The Snack World: Trejarers Gold, which launched for Switch in Japan last April. Level-5 is naturally attached to the rating.

There was first talk about Snack World heading west as early as October 2017. However, Level-5 has yet to make any official announcements. The new rating in Australia suggests that we’re coming closer to news being shared soon. If we hear anything from Level-5, we’ll be sure to let you know.

Layton's Mystery Journey DX

Back in February, Layton’s Mystery Journey: Katrielle and the Millionaires’ Conspiracy Deluxe Edition was rated in Germany. It was a strong sign that Level-5 has plans to bring the Switch game to North America and Europe.

More evidence has since surfaced pointing in that direction. Layton’s Mystery Journey: Katrielle and the Millionaires’ Conspiracy – Deluxe Edition has now been rated by the ESRB as well. Given these classifications, it seems like it’s only a matter of time until Level-5 makes an official announcement and the overseas release takes place.

Ahead of the game’s release in early June, developer Level-5 has published footage of the opening cinematic of Yo-Kai Watch 4. 

Those interested can check out the video below.

As part of the lead up to Yo-Kai Watch 4, developer Level-5 has put out even more info on the yo-kai world confirmed for the game — as well as details on playable characters, the yo-kai befriending system, and some new yo-kai.

Thanks to Gematsu, a translation of the information is now available and can be viewed below.

Level-5 has readied a new commercial to promote the upcoming launch of Yo-kai Watch 4 in Japan. See the advert below.

Professor Layton and the Curious Village

Could Professor Layton and the Curious Village be coming to Switch? A listing from G4F Localization certainly gives some hope in that area.

The website for G4F Localization has a page up for Professor Layton and the Curious Village for Switch, which was just added this month. It states that that the company worked on “additional translation for the Nintendo Switch version, in French by G4F & Italian, German and Spanish by Native Prime.” A 2018 date is also mentioned, but that could just be when localization was done.

Level-5 has provided the official boxart for Yo-kai Watch 4. Get a look at the game’s packaging image above.

Yo-kai Watch 4 launches for Switch in Japan on June 6.

UPDATE: Level-5 has also unveiled the official subtitle for Yo-Kai Watch 4, being “Bokura ha Onaji Sora wo Miageteiru” — or “We’re Looking Up at the Same Sky” in English.

Following word of Yo-Kai Watch 4’s new release date, Level-5 has published a third preview trailer for the anticipated title.

Once more, the video draws a big focus on gameplay. The footage can be viewed below.

It has been discovered that as part of this week’s release of CoroCoro magazine this upcoming Friday, the release date for Yo-kai Watch 4 will be revealed as June 6th for Japan.

This news is slated to be part of a larger piece of coverage of the game within the newest issue. This new date comes after one delay for the title that had it pushed into “Spring 2019”.

More information will be shared once the full issue has been released.
