Level-5, the Japanese developer and publisher best known for Yo-Kai Watch, Professor Layton and the Inazuma Eleven series has announced it will be appearing at next month's Anime Expo in Los Angeles.
It revealed this information over on the Layton series Twitter account and informed followers to "stay tuned for more details" soon.
Sure enough, fans of the company have chimed in to share their own thoughts about what could possibly be planned for the event. The mutual verdict is there is likely to be a reveal of sorts. Some replies are referencing Layton's anime adventures while others are demanding new and old games in the series be released on the Nintendo Switch.
Level-5 has been rather busy in recent times, with the reveal of Ni No Kuni: Wrath Of The White Witch for Switch and Snack World: The Dungeon Crawl Gold being recently rated by the Australian Classification Board. Professor Layton and the Curious Village and Layton’s Mystery Journey: Katrielle and the Millionaires' Conspiracy are also expected to make their west in the near future.
Do you expect an announcement from Level-5 at this upcoming event? What would you like to hear? Tell us below.

Layton confirmed for Smash!
Am I the only one hoping for a Fantasy Life port? 😝
@Jezebel95 That would be awesome! But right now, I've got my eye on Snack World, so I'm hoping that finally gets released, and hoping that it ends up being as good (or better??) as Fantasy Life.
But yeah, I'd rather them finish releasing the things they've announced before I start hoping for other things. I've given up on Fantasy Life for iOS being released in the West..
A layton anime maybe? Unless there already is one I don't know about
@Jacadamia Layton's Mystery Journey had an anime which finished airing at the end of March this year, titled Layton Mystery Tanteisha: Katri no Nazotoki File. I found it more enjoyable than Katrielle's game (it doesn't take much to improve upon such a low bar), especially most of the new/original cases introduced in the anime. It also tries to improve and add things (or remove them, RIP security guard from case #6) to the cases that are straight from the video game in an attempt to make them different enough for the anime's audience, though some of them were still terrible regardless.
There's also the Professor Layton and the Eternal Diva movie that aired during 2009, if you haven't watched it already that is.
@KyleHyde I've been wondering for some time, are you currently homeless or did you finally freeload off of Rachel?
Only thing I care about is Yo-Kai Watch 4 western release.
Yo-Kai Watch 4 western release please.
Yo-kai Watch 4 please! I’ve got it preloaded onto my Switch for this week and copies coming in for myself and each of the kids. Will happily double dip for an English version. Also hope to hear more about Snack World at long last
You know what I would like to see? Rogue Galaxy remaster. I missed out on it the first time around, always meant to pick it up but never did. Also, Dark Cloud/Chronicles remaster would be very cool.
And True Fantasy Live Online please!
Fantasy Life sequel please.
@Jezebel95 Gawd, its so unlikely, but I want Level 5 to drop a bomb and say Fantasy Life port available today, Fantasy Life Switch in development.
Would like to see a Switch release of the older Layton games. And maybe a remake / sequel to Girl's RPG Cinderella life. I found that game so creepy its almoste funny
