Pre-orders for physical copies of the PS5’s upcoming Stellar Blade have opened in South Korea, and the goodies are stunning. As spotted by a Shift Up fan account, buyers can choose between a vinyl soundtrack or a themed USB stick, with the former sporting some particularly fetching artwork. In fact, we’re not sure why this isn’t the box art, because it looks absolutely incredible.
Splatoon 3’s Side Order DLC is out today
22.02.2024 - 22:29 / destructoid.com / Nintendo
For those of you with conflicting feelings about making calamari of your fellow Octolings and Inklings, you can rejoice as Wave 2 of the Splatoon 3 Expansion Pass, Side Order, launched today. With none of that nasty PvP business, you can focus on ethically annihilating other species.
The Splatoon 3 Expansion Pass was announced during the February 2023 Nintendo Direct. Priced at $24.99 and divided into two waves, players were able to return to the original Splatoon hub, Inkopolis, in Wave 1. It didn’t feature a whole lot of new content aside from the Squid Sisters performing during Splatfests and thus, was underwhelming for those without a strong sense of nostalgia.
Side Order puts players in control of Agent 8 who must figure out why Inkopolis Square has been drained of color. Working with Pod, err… Pearl, Agent 8 works up each level of The Spire of Order, much like Aya Brea in Parasite Eve‘s Chrysler Building back in 1998.
Designed as a roguelite, players must ascend as far as possible, collecting Color Chip Enhancements along the way and completing objectives. On each floor, players choose one of three objectives to complete. Each choice gives a Color Chip Enhancement, which goes onto the overall palette and offers a wide range of buffs and modifiers. When you eventually fall, your Chips will be converted into Prlz which can be spent on permanent upgrades. It’s your standard roguelite and while it’s not Vampire Survivors, it’s no slouch either.
In the wake of other, arguably larger, Nintendo news, like practically everything announced yesterday during Nintendo Direct: Partner Showcase, it’s understandable that Wave 2 of the Splatoon 3 Expansion Pass would slide under the radar. Regardless, if you’ve been looking for a reason to get back into Splatoon 3, this is it.

Silent Hill 2 Remake Has Been Rated in South Korea
Konami has yet to officially announce a release date for the Bloober Team-developed Silent Hill 2 remake, though PlayStation did suggest earlier in the year that the game would be out sometime in 2024. As such, when a release date or window for the game remained elusive even when a new trailer was shown off last month, questions were raised once again about how far away from launch the game is.

13-Inch OLED iPad Pro Could Be More Popular Than The 11-Inch Model, Based on OLED Order Division Between Suppliers
Apple was expected to launch the OLED iPad Pro alongside the M3 MacBook Air models, but it appears that the company took a slightly different approach. Apple announced the M3 MacBook Air models earlier this week with various new upgrades on the inside. However, we are still expecting the OLED iPad Pro models to be released sometime later this month. While the launch time frame stands for the end of March, the company is reported to have ordered 8.5 million units of OLED displays from its suppliers, hinting at potential demand.
