BeXide released Ver1.2.0 for the 3D puzzle game NAMCO LEGENDARY Mountains on August 25, 2026, adding two versus modes: Score Attack and Voxel Race. In both modes, dropping voxels does not cause a game over, and players can practice alone if no opponent is available. Score Attack awards the win to the player with the most points within a time limit, while Voxel Race tasks players with creating the largest voxel faster than their opponent, with the ability to restart while keeping the largest voxel. The update also enables online play with others via Steam's Remote Play Together and Nintendo Switch 2's Share Play, even if the other player does not own the game. To mark the update, a 20% off sale runs until September 6, dropping the price from 2,480 yen to 1,984 yen on Steam, Switch 2, and Switch. Switch owners can upgrade to the Switch 2 version for 330 yen. Additional campaigns include a Collection Room Design Contest on X with daily gacha points, and a follow-and-repost campaign offering Steam download codes to 10 winners. The versus modes will be playable at gamescom 2026 and Tokyo Game Show 2026.
The game, released on June 25, 2026, draws on classic Namco arcade titles such as Pac-Man, Dig Dug, Xevious, Mappy, and The Tower of Druaga, reimagining their pixel art as modern voxels. Ver1.2.0 is a free update for existing owners.
BeXide, the developer known for the PlayStation series Doko Demo Issho, is holding a Collection Room Design Contest on X from August 25 to September 23. Players post screenshots of their collection rooms with the hashtag #NLM_Contest, and selected works will be featured on BeXide's website and Steam News. After the contest, a voxel set reproducing chosen designs will be distributed to all players.
During the same period, all players receive 7650P of gacha points daily, and 5000P can be exchanged for a voxel of choice. A separate follow-and-repost campaign on X runs until September 7 at 11:59 JST, with 10 winners receiving Steam download codes.
The versus modes will be playable at gamescom 2026 in Cologne from August 26 to 30, and at Tokyo Game Show 2026 at Makuhari Messe from September 17 to 21.
