Terraria is making a surprise launch on the 3DS eShop next week. Today, publisher 505 Games announced that the title will be available starting on December 10 in both North America and Europe for $19.99 / £16.99.

Here’s a comprehensive overview:

Reach directly into the world of Terraria with uniquely-tailored touchscreen controls, fashioning elaborate structures and fighting off enemies with an intuitive swipe of the stylus. Explore vast fantasy worlds by soaring up to floating islands in the sky or excavating down to the depths of the earth. Wage war on hundreds of different enemies – ranging from Zombies to Goblins to Unicorns to Wyverns – with weapons and armour you’ve crafted yourself. Build amazing structures and dwellings with ease, laying brick and stone with the responsive touch interface.

The Nintendo 3DS version of Terraria offers the ideal introduction to the franchise for the young and old player alike, and a fresh way to play for veterans of the franchise. Share the adventure with your friends, with four player sessions supported through Local Play; a safe and sociable multiplayer environment where players only engage with real-life acquaintances.

With over 1,300 crafting recipes, 150 enemies and 15 bosses to battle, players will have endless hours of fun as they literally dig to the ends of the earth, crafting amazing armor, weapons and other items with what they discover. Players will explore vast and vibrant worlds, encountering treacherous perils -including hundreds of twisted foes, magical creatures, and mighty monstrous bosses like the Eye of Cthulhu – to provide the ultimate test of the player’s combat ability. There may be a few Nintendo surprises in store, too!

Terraria remains on track for a retail release for both 3DS and Wii U. That’ll be happening early next year, along with the digital Wii U version.

Pokemon Picross has been promoted as a free-to-play/start game. Now that the download has arrived in Japan, some notable information has emerged about this aspect.

Serebii writes that after purchasing all 5,000 Picrites, they can be redeemed from time to time in batches of 1,000. If you max out the Energy Gauge’s level by spending Picrites, the free-to-play element is then removed. Players won’t have to worry about the energy gauge as it is at infinity.

Here are some other Pokemon Picross details from Serebii:

– Mega Evolution stages cost Picrites to access
– Micross puzzles can be found by completing various challenges on a variety of Pokémon
– These are larger puzzles that you unlock pieces for gradually and encompass a much larger image
– There’s a password option that will unlock various secret stages in the game
– 02:16: When you have purchased all 5000 Picrites, you can then redeem free Picrites from time to time in batches of 1000. If you max out the Energy Gauge’s level by spending your Picrites, you then remove the free to play aspect. You no longer have to worry about the energy gauge as it is at infinity
– Mega Evolution stages cost Picrites to access
– A special mode mirroring the standard stages is available later in the game
– This mode repeats puzzles but as Mega Picross style puzzles
