New Entry in SQUARE ENIX’s Bravely Series
Among the Announcements During The Game Awards
REDMOND, Wash., Dec. 12, 2019 – During a
night celebrating the video games of the past year, fans watching The
Game Awards got a sneak preview of several exciting
new experiences coming exclusively to Nintendo
Switch in the near future.
A trailer revealed
that a new entry in SQUARE ENIX’s Bravely
series, Bravely Default II, is
coming to Nintendo Switch in 2020. From the same team behind the Bravely Default and Octopath Traveler games, Bravely Default II is a successor to the
original Bravely Default game and will
have players embark on a new story in a new world, featuring all-new Heroes of
Light. The game will also feature music by Revo (Sound Horizon/Linked Horizon),
composer of the Bravely Default soundtrack.
Additionally, a new trailer
for No More
Heroes 3, the latest entry in the No
More Heroes series from developer Grasshopper Manufacture, unveiled that the
game is launching for Nintendo Switch in 2020. After the official numbered
series’ 10-year hiatus, the “assassin action game” is back featuring the
all-American No. 1 ranked assassin, Travis Touchdown. This time, the otaku
assassin must face off against some super hardcore enemies from space with his
beloved Beam Katana in hand.
Several new details about the
upcoming MARVEL ULTIMATE
ALLIANCE 3: The Black Order DLC Pack
2 – X-Men: Rise of the Phoenix content were also unleashed in a new trailer. On
Dec. 23, four more X-Men join the alliance – Phoenix, Gambit, Iceman and Cable
– with the purchase of the MARVEL
ULTIMATE ALLIANCE 3: The Black Order Expansion Pass. The DLC pack will also
introduce the newly added Danger Room mode, where two to four players* will
compete to see who can take down the most bosses while being barraged by buffs
and de-buffs. Owners of the MARVEL
ULTIMATE ALLIANCE 3: The Black Order game can purchase the Expansion Pass at
a suggested retail price of $19.99 to receive all of this content when it
releases on Dec. 23. The Expansion Pass also includes the previously released Marvel
Knights: Curse of the Vampire DLC Pack 1 and the upcoming DLC Pack 3, which
will release in spring 2020. Newly added costumes for a number of playable
characters will also be added to MARVEL
ULTIMATE ALLIANCE 3: The Black Order via a free update on Dec. 23.
