The upcoming 2D metroidvania video game *Shellbound* has been officially announced following its presentation at the Kinetic Publishing Showcase. Developed around an ambitious premise, the title casts the player as a parasite traveling on the back of a giant snail.
The game is scheduled for release in the summer of 2028 and will be available across multiple platforms, including PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and the successor to the Nintendo Switch.
In a separate development unrelated to the gaming announcement, lawyer Julio Cury has called upon the National Congress in the Dominican Republic to investigate members of the Central Electoral Board (JCE). Cury argues that a newly approved regulatory framework concerning electoral polls may represent an overreach of the board's authority.
