Shin’en has prepared an update for Jett Rocket II: The Wrath of Taikai, and it’s out now in both North America and Europe.

The patch is more than just a means to address bugs. Shin’en has sped up character movement, improved the game’s controls, and reduced the impact upon taking damage.

Shin’en tweeted the update news earlier today:

Chances are that you won’t be seeing DLC in any of Shin’en’s games. That’s because, as the company said on Twitter recently, the team doesn’t “plan for DLC”. Instead, Shin’en prefers to “release a 100% complete game for a fair price.”

Shin’en’s comments in full are as follows:

Shin’en is busy working on FAST Racing Neo for the Wii U eShop. Additionally, the studio has a second new project that will be announced in the very near future.

Art director Martin Sauter said on his website that the mysterious game “should get revealed in the next few weeks”. No further information was provided.

Sauter also left the following tease about FAST Racing Neo:

I can’t post too many information at the moment, but I can cconfirm, that this will not be a simple port or remake of the Wii version. It will be a standalone, full new product and we try it to create the most exciting eShop game in 2014.

Thanks to WALEED for the tip.

Remember how the original Jett Rocket teased a sequel? Now we’re seeing similar with Jett Rocket II: The Wrath of Taikai.

The text and image above are displayed after completing Jett Rocket II. I’d say there’s a pretty good chance we’ll be seeing Jett Rocket III down the road!

Shin’en casually announced FAST Racing Neo a few weeks ago. Soon after, the game dropped off the radar.

Neo’s announcement came without any sort of information or media. This begs the question: when will we actually see something pertaining to the game?

Unfortunately, Shin’en intends to keep us waiting a bit longer. The studio will be sharing content starting next year.

Shin’en’s Manfred Linzner told Pretendo:

In 2014. We currently optimize the local multiplayer part and it seems as we can go far beyond what we have done previously.

Shin’en is set out again to impress from a technical standpoint. The studio said on Twitter earlier today that FAST Racing Neo – the studio’s second Wii U eShop title – will feature “hyper real graphics”. That’s thanks to the use of 4,000 – 8,000 textures.
