More Pokémon Sword and Shield News Coming on Wednesday

The Pokémon Company has announced that new information about Pokémon Sword and Shield will be announced this Wednesday

It’s not clear if this will be another Pokémon Direct or something similar, or if they’ll just be releasing information as usual.

Since they’ve specifically announced a date and time, August 7 at 6 AM PT / 9 AM ET, it seems more likely that it will be a video presentation.

(Who knows, though? Announcing announcements is popular, so maybe they just want to make sure everyone knows when the new information will be out.)

Many fans are hoping they will reverse their decision to not have the National Dex in Sword and Shield, but that doesn’t seem very likely. I expect they’ll continue as they have been, and reveal some new Pokémon and characters. Even though I think the true villains have already been shown, I wouldn’t be surprised if they reveal this generation’s evil team.

Are you looking forward to the new Pokémon Sword and Shield news on August 7, or do you think they’ve already revealed enough ahead of the game’s launch?

Capcom is Testing a New Resident Evil Game

We might not know what’s next for the Resident Evil series just yet, but whatever it is, it’s in-development and ready for testing.

Members of the Resident Evil Ambassador Program in Japan have received emails asking them to test an in-development game on September 8 or 9.

In addition to being part of the program, testers must have played past Resident Evil games.

So it’s clear Capcom is working on something in the series, but what could it be? Resident Evil 8? Another remake? A new spin-off?

Personally, I’m leaning toward RE3make, but who knows? With any luck, testing in early September means it won’t be long before this game is officially announced.

What do you think the next Resident Evil game is?

The Next RPG From Zeboyd Games is Cthulhu Saves Christmas

After teasing their new game for a little while now, Zeboyd Games has officially announced a new turn-based RPG called Cthulhu Saves Christmas.

Cthulhu Saves Christmas follows Cthulhu and his allies (Belsnickel, the Snow Maiden, and Baba Yaga-chan) on a quest to saved Santa Claus from evil Christmas figures such as Krampus.

While it’s a turn-based RPG like their previous games, it will also have life sim aspects to build your “R’lyehtionships.”

I’m conflicted about this game right now. On one hand, it’s a successor to Cthulhu Saves the World, which I loved. On the other hand, I ended up somewhat disappointed in their most recent game, Cosmic Star Heroine, despite all my hype leading up to it.

Since Cthulhu Saves Christmas is another parody, I’m hopeful it will have the humor and entertainment of their earlier games. Theoretically, having life sim segments should help prevent the characters from feeling bland, too.

For now, I’ll be keeping my eye on it. What do you think of Cthulhu Saves Christmas?
