Hogwarts Legacy confirms that there is an NS version
Sony held the latest issue of the press conference "State Of Play" this week, which demonstrated the new open world work "Hogwarts Legacy", which is highly anticipated by Harry Potter fans, and confirmed on the official website on the same day that the game will also land on the Switch platform, which surprised players.
After that, many players believe that in terms of the picture effect of this game, the NS version is likely to be a cloud game, but the official follow-up has released the cover of the physical version of the NS version, confirming that the game will launch a physical cassette, so it is speculated that the NS version of this game is unlikely to be a cloud game.
The story is set in a world not mentioned in the Harry Potter novel, the time is 19th century (1800-1899), because Harry was born in 1980, so it can be seen that the plot of this work and the novel/movie should not intersect, so it seems unlikely to see Harry, Hermione, Ron and other characters in the game (if anything, it may be presented in the form of easter eggs?). ）。
Players will join gryffindor, Ravenclaw, Slytherin, hufflepuff, and learn magic, potions and other courses, experience unprecedented school life, and embark on a dangerous journey to explore the hidden truths of the wizarding world.
I don't know if the NS version can use Joy-Con as a magic wand to cast magic, think it is too much to look forward to, if the optimization can be done in place, it will be a good work that people talk about, are you Muggles ready~
Nintendo's new handle
Nintendo has released a new gamepad patent, which is quite strange compared to the existing handle.
From the picture, the handle looks a bit like the upper part of the N64 Trident handle, without the "trident" of the lower half. The layout of the keys is similar to the SFC handle, with cross keys and 4 function keys and LR shoulder keys, but no Start and Select keys. And the handle comes with an old rotor motor, not the HD vibration on today's NS.
The design of this controller is quite strange: to say that it is used to play SFC, the old game of the FC era, the game at that time does not support vibration, it does not need to add a vibration module; to say that it is used to play N64 games, most games without a joystick can not be played. And these platforms have now sold the old handle, there is no need to make such a "non-trivial" handle.
So assuming that this design of Nintendo will be used in the actual product, what game is most likely to be played with it? GBA。
The GBA has a cross key, an AB function key, an LR shoulder key, and a Start and Select key, where Start and Select correspond to the XY key of this handle. And the GBA has some games with vibration expansion packs, such as Pokémon Pinball Table, Boom Drill and so on. In addition to GBA, using this controller to play GB and GBC games should also be very suitable.
Previously, rumors often broke that Nintendo would add GameBoy platform games to Switch's member game library, and re-registered trademarks such as "The Legend of Zelda, Shrinking Hat" and "Mitterrod Zero Point Mission" a few days ago. In the future, if such a controller is launched for GB/GBA games, it is really not surprising at all!
The release date of the Strange Hunt DLC is confirmed
Monster Hunter Rises large-scale DLC "Dawn" is confirmed to be online on June 30, priced at about 250 yuan. Note that 250 yuan is the price of the DLC, and you need to have the main body to play. The price of the digital version of the body is about 380 yuan, about 250 yuan in the current discount of Hong Kong service, and the price of the physical cassette is currently about 300 yuan. The DLC will only be available in a digital version, not a version built into the cassette. This means that BNP players will not be able to play DLC content. DLC will continue to be released after the release of free updates, details will be released in the future.
This week's live broadcast revealed three new monsters, including "Gang Tang beast", "Ice Wolf Dragon", and "Crimson Tengu Beast", and confirmed that the "Electric Dragon" in Monster Hunter X will return. The DLC has added a new wilderness "Castle Heights", centered on an ancient city, surrounded by forests, snow-capped mountains and other ecologically diverse areas (that is, each map). The current 14 weapons will be added with a new "Iron Worm Silk Technique", using the Flying Worm to make more riotous operations, making the weapon movements more personalized and bringing a more refreshing hunting experience. Of course, these are only the content that is currently open, and in the future, the official will continue to disclose new monsters, map details and other content.
