During its Dragon Quest Builders ‘Builders 100 Landscapes Contest: The Road to Builders 2’ broadcast earlier today, Square Enix debuted brand new footage of Dragon Quest Builders 2. We’ve included the relevant recording below.


Square Enix also revealed that if you have data from the first Dragon Quest Builders, you can bring it over to the sequel, though we don’t know the extend of this just yet. Specifics will be announced at a later date.

Bayonetta 3 was only just announced in December, and likely won’t be releasing for quite some time. Still, that doesn’t mean PlatinumGames lacks interest in continuing the franchise in the future.

Over on Twitter, original Bayonetta director Hideki Kamiya said that he has ideas for a fourth Bayonetta. Though the comment alone doesn’t guarantee another entry in the franchise, the interest is definitely there. It’s also encouraging that Platinum would know how to continue to the series following Bayonetta 3.

BlazBlue: Cross Tag Battle

Much has been made about BlazBlue: Cross Tag Battle’s DLC and how much it’ll cost to obtain everything. After Destructoid spoke with the game’s producer, we finally have some clarification.

BlazBlue: Cross Tag Battle will be sold at $49.99 with DLC offered outside of that. You’ll also be able to pick up the Deluxe Digital Edition for $69.99 featuring the main game and Cross Tag Character Pack 1-6.

Here’s a full breakdown of pricing:

Does the name Virtuos ring a bell? If you paid attention to last year’s release of L.A. Noire on Switch, it may sound familiar. Rockstar worked with Virtuos to bring that title to Nintendo’s console.

The same company looks to be behind the release of another notable Switch re-release. Dark Souls: Remastered has been rated in Australia, showing that Virtuos is working on FromSoftware’s classic for Nintendo’s console. Polish studio QLOC has been rumored to be handling the title for other platforms.

Ratings for Mega Man Legacy X Collection and Mega Man Legacy X Collection 2 popped up in Australia yesterday. It’s a clear sign that when Capcom brings the Mega Man X games to Switch, there will be two separate collections.

We also can’t forget that the mainline Mega Man titles are heading to Switch. For the original Mega Man Legacy Collections, it seems that this will be a single release.

Tonight, Nintendo published a bunch of different videos for Nintendo Labo. We also received a ton of new footage. With that, there’s something particularly neat that has been shown with the Toy-Con Motorbike.

You can actually use what Nintendo is calling the Toy-Con Scanner to scan an object and then add that shape to the terrain. This is demonstrated in the video below. You can scan anything – be it a hand or even the Joy-Con itself.
