Do Wyverian People Lay Eggs? The Monster Hunter Community Investigates

Monster Hunter fans on reddit are having a blast trying to answer an important question: Do the Wyverian people lay eggs?

Admittedly, it’s been a hot minute since the last major content update for Monster Hunter Rise. With Sunbreak being announced, it’s safe to assume that, at best we’re only getting sticker quests and remixed old ones until then.

It all started on Twitter, with fans asking the seemingly-innocent yet somehow sinister-sounding question: Do the Wyverian people of Monster Hunter, descended from Wyverns, lay eggs?
The logic was sound- Wyverns lay eggs. Many of the worst quests in every Monster Hunter are dedicated to you having to carry these eggs all across the map. Using what’s called phylogenetic bracketing, it’s safe to hypothesize that anything within the Wyvern family would, in fact, also lay eggs (Much like how housecats giving birth makes a prehistoric cat giving birth a pretty good shot).

Here’s the problem- when applying real-world methodology, it’s easy to do so with two housecats because they look similar. Wyverians and Wyverns don’t actually look all that similar, considering one of them is an anime girl.
Darwin’s gonna have a hard time sorting this one out
There’s also the platypus problem: By all accounts, a platypus is a mammal. Against all odds, though, they lay eggs. In the fictional corner, there’s also the Palamute problem: despite being dogs in every aspect, the Canynes are shown to also hatch from eggs.
So, Do Wyverians Lay Eggs?
The discussion on Reddit is largely circular- alternating between “Yes because [real world example]”, “No because [more real world sample]” and my personal favorite, “Why does this thread exist”-type answers.
The discussion has ramped up enough that community influencer Kogath even roped in Capcom’s localization team to give their personal thoughts on the matter.
“Man… I have no idea either but I refuse to believe my beloved Hinoa and Minoto lay eggs…“, write Aizo Yurei in a tweet, before changing their Twitter bio to confirm that Hinoa and Minoto from Monster Hunter Rise are not platypuses.

Tim Van Ingen even came up with his own answer, bound to make everyone happy:

“I agree with @aizoyurei though. There’s no way Hinoa and Minoto came from eggs. Now Kagero on the other hand…he looks like an egg person to me! So maybe, over the course of evolution, Wyverians split up into those that give live birth and those that lay eggs…”, he says.

Of course, none of this actually matters. The Monster Hunter subreddit has had a field day making egg memes, all while people who are here just to share their builds look on in horror as the cute quest givers biology continue to be speculated on.

Surprise! Nintendo just announced that they will be releasing Super Mario Run for iPhones, featuring our lovable plumber, Mario. According to an interview with TIMES, the development team of Super Mario Run are mostly from the original Super Mario development team, along with Nintendo developers who are most familiar with side-scrolling Mario games, with the aim to make the best possible mobile Mario game.

The game features three different game modes, (1) challenging courses, (2) challenge other people’s ghosts, (3) create your own Mushroom Kingdom using coins collected from the previous two modes. According to Nintendo, the game will be free to play and an in-app purchase to unlock the rest of the content.

“Based on a variety of factors, we felt it was most appropriate for Super Mario Run to launch ahead of these other two apps. Our Animal Crossing and Fire Emblem titles for mobile will launch before the end of our fiscal year, which ends on March 31, 2017.” – Nintendo
No harm, I guess, since Super Mario would appeal more to the masses even though Animal Crossing is popular itself. Can’t wait for the release of Super Mario Run!

A song to remember – Kingdom Hearts: Melody of Memory with Ichiro Hazama and Masanobu Suzui

A rhythm game might not necessarily be something fans expected out of Kingdom Hearts, but considering how prolific Utada Hikaru’s and Yoko Shimomura’s work has been, perhaps Kingdom Hearts: Melody of Memory should be considered more of an inevitability. If you haven’t heard of Melody of Memory yet, it’s a rhythm action game spun off the franchise, featuring many characters from the series playable, with guest Disney character appearances. There will be about 20 playable characters and 140 playable tracks and an online versus mode, with tracks from both the games and Disney.

On the record today is game producer Ichiro Hazama of Square Enix, and co-director Masanobu Suzui of Indieszero to answer some of our questions regarding the title.

Ichiro Hazama.
Masanobu Suzui.

Why did the team decide to make KHMM as a rhythm action game?
Follow us on Twitter
Follow @GamerBraves
and Tweet us
Tweet to @GamerBraves

ICHIRO HAZAMA: Originally, Suzui-san and myself worked on the “Theatrhythm series” which is a rhythm action game. So next, we thought we would like to make a KH series “Theatrhythm” kind of rhythm game. This was about 5 years ago. Only until very recently, Tetsuya Nomura brought that up with Disney and it was Disney that was quite enthusiastic about taking KH into the rhythm game genre. So our next concern is to make it the most fun and enjoyable rhythm game that we could.
Tetsuya Nomura.
When we started on working on KH as a rhythm game, Nomura as the director wanted to focus on the visuals as well story to make it a “KH kind of game”, without following the established “Theatrhythm” style. The result becomes “KH as a rhythm game” than a “rhythm game with KH elements”.
There are so many playable characters in the game, including guest Disney characters. Will Final Fantasy playable characters also be included in the game?
ICHIRO HAZAMA: To put it very frankly, there won’t be any FF playable characters in the game. The party you played as are made up of the main characters from past installment of the game. But for FF characters, they are guests in the KH world, so they didn’t manage to make their way into this game.
MASANOBU SUZUI: It’s not like we did not consider putting in FF characters, but we really wanted to focus on the collaboration with Disney for this game. And to be honest, because of the “Theatrhythm” rhythm game, we already had the opportunity for a lot of people to play FF song in that rhythm game, so if we want to include those FF songs within this one, and then it would end up be the same in some cases. So instead of doing that, we really should just focus on the Disney aspect of the collaboration.
Cloud as he appears in Kingdom Hearts II.
Can a player that has never played any KH game before choose KHMM game as their first entry to the KH series? Will KHMM be related to other KH titles?
MASANOBU SUZUI: First of all, it is a great entry way to the series, I think even if you haven’t play it before. On the development team, most of them are actually big KH fans, that we all have our favourite song we want to put in, favourite scene or favourite characters. But that doesn’t mean everyone in the team had necessarily played KH. For some of them it is completely new to them, but as we develop the game, as they were playing this game, they fell in love with the series, and actually went back to play all the past KH games as well.
So I hope that would happened to players as well. It is really a fast paced game with good tempo throughout the story, you get to play all the key songs throughout the plot, revisit all the cool scenes and important plot points, and what’s more, it is all told from Kairi’s point of view. It really is a great place to build up your knowledge of KH series, like a review that take you through the whole story,and even if you are a fan that play it before and you already have lot of knowledge, it really is a good chance to go back and revisit some of the earlier moments that you might be not clear on and realize: Oh that’s how they were connected, Oh this character and that character worked together like that, this is how it is.
So actually for new fans as well, I really hope it will be the kind of game where they can play KHMM and become interested in the series, and go back and play the whole series again. And when they come back and play KHMM again, and they will think Oh I didn’t see this, this is the connection I never saw before. So yeah, I really think its good for both old and new fans.
Kairi is in fact, featured on the box art for Melody of Memory.
What differentiates KHMM from the “Theatrhythm” games from the 3DS? Anything new that we can look out for when the game comes out?
MASANOBU SUZUI: It is really quite different from the basics, because we started from the point of making a KH game. In term of obviously, when you press the button in time for the music, that’s the same with any other rhythm game but in term of how you go about that its really different; you have a party of 3, enemies come out, you use the motion from the original KH like attacking, jumping, gliding. The playstyle is completely different.
It’s really quite difficult to explain, so I would just like to let you play it really. If you played KH3, we try to make the playstyle and the button to feel similar to KH3. On top of that, we added more rhythm game elements, for example using the L1 and R1 button to deal the team attacks, that sort of thing.
Can you elaborate more about the songs in KHMM?
MASANOBU SUZUI: This is the first rhythm game for KH. We got over 140 songs all from KH series and it does include the originals, including the Disney songs, Utada Hikaru songs so for people that never played KH series before, they will be able to step into the game and play songs they already know. We think that is really important for good rhythm game.

Can you elaborate more on how multiplayer gameplay works in KHMM? Can the story mode be played multiplayer?
MASANOBU SUZUI: First of all, the main mode for KHMM is the “World Tour Mode” which is the story mode; you play through that sort of play different track, clear missions and move on to the next world while looking back to the past memory of the KH series, etc. As you clear songs in this mode, they will become available to play in other modes.
There are also versus mode and coop mode. For the versus mode, it can be done either online against the computer enemy or through local communication on the Switch version. The Coop mode is called “Double Play”; in this mode 1 player plays as Sora, another plays as Riku, and you work together to get a high score. For these different modes, you can use tracks and play the tracks from the “World Tour Mode”.
The way the online versus mode works is: first, 2 players will select songs and the track played will be picked randomly from the selection. Then you play on the track and both aim for the highest score to win. You can also use the Trick System to obstruct other players and try to hold them back until you reach the end. The winner will get 2 cards for their collection while the loser still gets 1 card. It will still be fun and rewarding to keep playing and keep building that collection as well as improve your rating and move up the ranks.

In KHMM, Sora attire is still using the KH1 attire, is there any reason for that? And in the future, can we change the costume, appearance and keyblade?
MASANOBU SUZUI: There is no function that can change the costume, as we mentioned before, KHMM is set in the world of memory, looking back the stories Kairi had heard from Sora and the others as she goes back in memory. The Sora you see inside KHMM is the representation of Sora and how he was in the past at that time. Also, this means that there is no ability to change or equip different keyblade. But on the other hand there are over 800 collection cards. These cards include the original art from Tetsuya Nomura, past keyblade design, and different costume designs. You will be able to see them included in the game in that form. As you collect these cards, it will make Sora and others stronger, so I think it really worth going through and collecting them as many as possible.
Rhythm games are often associated with touch screen gameplay. Regarding the Switch version, will it support the touch screen and not just analog controls?
MASANOBU SUZUI: There won’t be any touch screen control for KHMM. Because we were developing a multiplatform game, we really want to give everyone the same experience but also as good experience as possible on that platform. We really worked on making the button controls as fun as possible to come across in this game.
Will there be any additional content planned to be released after the game is out?
ICHIRO HAZAMA: At the moment, we have no plan for any kind of additional content after released in that way. I think it really is exciting to have game that continuously to grow and expand after release, there also sometime kinda have a sense of will worth the end where it actually end. For KHMM, we really wanted to create complete experience that  you can play through in 1 complete game. For example, there is a story mode that has an end, that you played through that story, and after you completed that, you can use different song you unlocked there to play through more detail, challenge more difficulty, play with your friend in versus mode etc. There really plenty to play and plenty to explore within the game as it will be on release. We hope you can get a lot of knowledge of playing it.
MASANOBU SUZUI: KHMM is kind of an overview, kind of a summary of KH games up till now being as past memories. So it would seem strange to add extras to something that already supposed to be complete.

Since KHMM is the first KH title on Switch, will the past titles plans to be released on Switch too?
ICHIRO HAZAMA: I can’t really talk about any plans. But the director Tetsuya Nomura does very like the Switch; he thinks it is a wonderful console, a great console. Whether or not there will be more titles or interesting things to be on the Switch in whatever form, we can’t say anything about that at the moment.
 KHMM is going through all of Kairi’s and Sora’s memory throughout the entire KH series. Does that include the spinoffs, the entire saga/ story of the game? If so, how did the team choose what to include in and what to leave out?
MASANOBU SUZUI: It’s all in there, everything, all the game, all the way up until the Re:Mind DLC. So that’s what we mean when we say it is all distilled, all in overview. So you might be able to guess the playable characters, the unlockable members who are not announced yet.
In terms of the timeline, it progress from the start of the whole KH series in chronological order, all the way through. As you go through the “World Tour Mode”, you will be able to see how all of the different worlds, different stories connected and get a broad understanding of how KH series universe, and eventually will reach the conclusion point which is KH3.
Is there any competitive elements like leaderboard in the multiplayer mode?
MASANOBU SUZUI: There is a rating system but not exactly a ranking system like leaderboard. With a rhythm game, even if you get a highscore, in the end you only can get the highest possible score, for example 999999 or whatever that might be. So rather than focusing on that extreme limit, we prefer to focus on enjoying each and every different versus mode and versus match as you play it.
Anything else you want to say about the game and to KH fans?
MASANOBU SUZUI: To sum up what is so great about this game and what we are actually aiming at is that it really is accessible to a lot of people. It is great for new fans because all the stories and all the songs are gathered together and you can look at that in one convenient place. And for old fans, there will be new discoveries in that. And for people that might don’t know much about KH, but they are fans of rhythm games, we included lot of different styles, including performance styles, where you can use lot of buttons to make complicated combos. On the other hand, if you’re not good in rhythm games, we also have One Button Style. So you can still get through story in that mode. There is something for everyone in that. I really hope you can enjoy this game.
Just google “Kingdom Hearts games” and imagine going through them all as a new fan to the series.
ICHIRO HAZAMA: A message to all the fans in SEA, I would really like to emphasize that in lot of different ways, this is something we would like different people to play. As there a lot of different difficulty levels, and different ways to control the characters, whether that is the One Button style or difficult combination of buttons. In term of languages, this game will have most available languages as any KH game today. For old KH fans who have been around for a long time, they will be able to look back on the past memories and re-experience the series, and for new fans, it will be easy for them to start and step into the series. I hope through this game, it can create new memories moving forward.

We’re a few months off till the release of Melody of Memory still, so rhythm game enthusiasts and Kingdom Hearts fans alike will still need to wait. From watching from the fringes of fandom, with the idea of connecting new things also within Melody of Memory, the lore keepers of Kingdom Hearts will have yet another thing to chew over, wouldn’t they?
Melody of Memory will be launching 13 November 2020.

[LVL Up KL 2019] Breaking games in the name of QA, interview with Anna Prein of Larian Quebec

You excited about Larian Studios opening in Malaysia? We talked briefly about it with Swen in our interview with him, and we catch up with Anna Prein to do the same! She’s the QA Producer at Larian Quebec in Canada, so let’s see what she has to say.

You eager job seekers would certainly be curious on Larian’s requirements, wouldn’t you? Prein admits she’s looking forward to hiring QA people considering her position in the Quebec studio, so she’s seeking talent there. Regardless, they will be looking at disciplines at all levels. No certificate or diploma is needed to join Larian. They just want you to have a good foundation and set of skills.

According to Prein, QA looks for people who pay attention to details. They also need to be patient, be good under stress and those who persevere. QA has to reproduce certain values, and it can be challenging to find and replicate the exact thing to find an issue. How often have you wanted to report a bug but couldn’t figure out how it happened?

Team Russia and Team Canada will be working together with the Malaysian team. They’ve standardized the flow, but the studios do have certain specialties to them. Prien mentions a QA tester in Belgium who’s great at bug testing, breaking games with no structure. St. Petersburg has people who can do excellent detail documentation. Quebec does the playtesting, making different playthroughs of the games with a variety of characters and classes.

Tweet to @GamerBraves

Since the announcement of Baldur’s Gate III, we asked about what QA has already been done. Prien can only tell us there’s constant testing on it, revealing there’s actually two departments within QA. One team continues work on Divinity: Original Sin II, with work on patches and additional content. The other team works with the Baldur’s Gate III programmers to help integrate the content to ensure it doesn’t break either game or editor.

Larian Malaysia is the final part in the 24-hour international workflow for the studios. Malaysia’s QA covers the large gap between St. Petersburg and Quebec, taking over from the Canadian team to pass on to the Russian team. QA in Malaysia will be evenly split for now, as they want to create both sides of QA. There will be those who will help with Baldur’s Gate III, and it’ll eventually start needing more serious testing as it approaches release.
Prien expresses excitement to be in Malaysia, eyeing that big pool of growing talent. Should you be interested, you can contact them on their website. Think you got the skill?

Dungeon Meshi Anime Adaptation will be done by Studio TRIGGER

Dungeon Meshi or Delicious in Dungeon, will be receiving an anime adaptation and will be done by Studio TRIGGER who also did series such as SSSS Gridman, Kill La Kill, Promare, and many more.

For those who are unfamiliar with Dungeon Meshi, it is a fantasy comedy seinen manga series which revolves around the main character – Laios and his party of adventurers who set out on a dungeon exploring quest. During one of their dungeon exploring, the party had encountered a dragon and were forced to flee, but at the cost of losing Laios’ sister – Falin.

While heading back into the dungeon, Laios and his party then comes across a dwarf who goes by the name Senshi who has 10 years of experience sustaining himself in the dungeon by cooking monsters and harvesting food.
With the addition of a new party member, Laios then sets off back into the dungeon to save his sister, all while slaying and cooking through the monsters that reside within the dungeon and making them into delicious food.
While it may seem as a surprise that Studio TRIGGER will be doing the anime adaptation for Dungeon Meshi, according to twitter user catsuka, Studio TRIGGER had actually made a short commercial trailer for the title back in 2019.

There is also an official website that was recently created for the anime adaptation of Dungeon Meshi, and for those who are interested in learning more information about it, do check it out here.  But as of time of writing, there is currently no news about the release date or the cast of VAs, so we have to wait a bit longer for more information.

Interestingly, the game was originally an April Fool’s joke from developers of squad-based MMO shooter Enlisted, Darkflow Software and it somehow made it as a stand-alone title. Different from the other battle-royale games, only 30 players will be dropped on the map per session.

As our title mentioned, you will be using kitchenware to fight to be the last one standing in Cuisine Royale. For example, the helmet is now colander, while the body armor (formidable breastplate) is now wok. There are also some items such as a medical dropper for health regeneration or cigar that turns you into a “real tough guy”.

Yuffie and her partner Sonon, two elite ninja operatives for the Wutaian government, have been assigned a dangerous mission: to steal the Shinra Electric Power Company’s most powerful materia. Together with Avalanche HQ’s support, they cross behind enemy lines to reclaim their homeland’s former glory and exact revenge long in the making.
Unbeknownst to Yuffie, however, the wheel of fate is turning, and unforeseen consequences await.

Yuffie Kisaragi is member of Wutai’s elite corps of ninja operatives, Yuffie styles herself as both a ravishing beauty and a world-class materia hunter. Using her signature oversized throwing star and exceptional agility, she is a force to be reckoned with. Determined to reclaim her homeland’s former glory—and acting on orders from the government—she sneaks into Midgar.

Accompanying her is Sonon Kusakabe, a warrior hailing from Wutai who trained under Yuffie’s father. He experienced the devastation wrought by his country’s war with Shinra, and as a result, harbors a deep resentment for the company. He has been assigned to accompany Yuffie as she infiltrates Midgar—essentially making her his boss. Thankfully though, his serious, grounded nature is the perfect foil for his partner’s eccentric personality.

The new episode will consist of two chapters of the dynamic duo’s adventure, with the help of Avalanche HQ to steal the ultimate materia from the Shinra Electric Power Company. Yuffie is proficient in both close combat and ranged with her shuriken and repertoire of ninjutsu attacks. Besides that, Yuffie can also interact with the environment using her shuriken, smashing boxes or flipping switches from a distance.

ROG Zephyrus S GX502 Review – Powerful and versatile

ASUS just launched a new bunch of ROG Zephyrus gaming laptops and we were lucky to get one in advance. Specifically, we got to review the ROG Zephyrus S GX502, an updated model of the GX501 that comes with a new CPU and GPU.

Check out our unboxing video below:

Design
The GX502 sports a sleek magnesium alloy body that has a relatively simple design. In fact, the RGB-lit ROG logo on the top is the only part that stands out as fancy.
Upon lifting the lid, you’ll be greeted by a matt black surface that holds the chiclet-style keyboard in the middle, as well as some extra buttons and speaker grill on the top area. The bottom area gives you enough space on either side of a well-sized trackpad to rest your hands.

However, the one thing as always when it comes to matt surfaces is the tendency for fingerprint marks to linger. As expected we noticed that the lid of and palm rest areas were where smudges would become obvious. To keep it looking sleek, it’s necessary to wipe the laptop often. Not an issue per se, but something to keep in mind.
At 18.9mm in thickness and weighing just 2kg, the 15.6-inch GX502 is great for carrying around. Of course, it’s not the lightest laptop you’ll find. However, it’s easily one of the lightest laptops that come with an Nvidia RTX 2070 Max-P. That means it’s a highly portable and high-performance machine.
Follow us on Twitter
Follow @GamerBraves
and Tweet us
Tweet to @GamerBraves

It’s also got a well-balanced set of I/O ports. Unfortunately, a micro SD or SD card reader was not included.
Here’s a list of available ports:

1 x USB3.1 Gen2 Type C (supports DisplayPort 1.4 and Power Delivery)
1 x USB3.1 Gen2 Type A
2 x USB3.1 Gen1 Type A
1 x HDMI 2.0b
1 x 3.5mm Audio Jack
1 x Audio Jack Mic-in
1 x Ethernet

Specifications
The exact model we received is the GX502G-WAZ074T, which comes with an Nvidia GeForce RTX 2070 Max-P and a 240-Hz display with G-Sync. You can refer to the image just below this for a list of the core specifications, or go to the product page for the full one.

Benchmarks
The ROG Zephyrus S GX502 did really well with our usual trio of benchmark tests. Starting with PCMark 10, we recorded an aggregate score of 5,138. As you can see from the screenshot below, Essentials and Digital Content Creation were what pulled the most weight. This shows the strength of the six-core CPU (Intel Core i7-9750H) and GPU (Nvidia GeForce RTX 2070 Max-P).

Next, we come to the Time Spy benchmark for 3DMark. At 6,821 points, it does perform slightly weaker in this synthetic benchmark, compared to desktop RTX 2070 cards. However, you can still expect to reliably play a good number of AAA games on high-quality settings with this laptop.

Lastly, we have the UserBenchmark test. This benchmark is handy as it summarizes how well a PC performs in a few areas. Here, we get confirmation that the GX502 is capable of most 3D games at very high or ultra detail levels.

Performance
Overall usability
When it comes to performance, the key highlight for the GX502 is definitely the 240Hz display. The powerful hardware ensured that we got to experience absolutely stutter-free visuals for a lot of games, especially for games like Dota 2 or Apex Legends. The other two aspects of the display we found great were the color reproduction and the thin bezels, which enables for a more seamless viewing experience.

We were quite pleased with the volume and sound quality of the speaker as well. It’s reasonably loud even at 50% and the voice audio was crisp. It still lacks bass, as expected, so you’ll want to use a good pair of headphones when you are gaming.
The keyboard was comfortable to type on too, with great key travel and enough tactile feedback. We were also big fans of its per-key-RGB setting, which is a great alternative if you prefer more subtle lighting effects.
Gaming performance
In most of the games that we played on this machine, we tend to be able to adjust for above 60fps depending on quality settings. This usually ranged from Medium to High, though some games required us to turn off the fancier features to compensate. For example, Total War: Three Kingdoms wouldn’t run above 60 fps without some heavy tweaking, though to be fair it’s a very demanding game.
For Apex Legends and Dota 2, we manage to get frame rates of above 80 fps consistently. If you mainly play more mainstream titles like that, you are unlikely to encounter any screen tearing or stuttering when using this laptop.
Heat management was decent overall. The 12V fans and Active Aerodynamic System of the laptop direct a lot of airflow towards the CPU and GPU. While the upper part of the keyboard sometimes felt farm, the palm rest areas were relatively cool.
Another thing to keep in mind is that the fans can be loud. When it runs at high speeds (around 5,000 to 6,000 rpm), fan noise can go up to a maximum of 46.8 dBa. In short, you’ll definitely notice the sound from the fans.
When you’re not playing any games, you can quickly switch to using the integrated GPU using the Optimus switch. This is useful for saving battery life, reducing heat and keeping the fan quiet.
Verdict
The GX502 is an excellent gaming laptop if you are gunning for portability and performance. While it’s not all that appropriate to use in public, due to the noise level, it’s a machine that will let you play the top games even away from home.
Also, the model we reviewed is relatively affordable at RM8,699, considering its specs. It even comes with a backpack and a sculpture of the ROG logo. Neat!

PlayStation (5) May Come In The Next 3 Years

Just recently, we were informed that the PlayStation 4 is at its last life cycle which they will be holding on in the market through exclusive games and first-party titles for the PS4. However Sony Interactive Entertainment has just made another announcement as stated in WSJ, that the next PlayStation console will be in ready in the next 3 years. This only makes sense as technological advancements goes, the next console is inevitable. But for now, the PlayStation 4’s lifespan will have to hold out till the next generation PlayStation console take its place.

“We will use the next three years to prepare the next step, to crouch down so that we can jump higher in the future,” said Tsuyoshi “John” Kodera.

“We need to depart from the traditional way of looking at the console life cycle,” he said. “We’re no longer in a time when you can think just about the console or just about the network like they’re two different things.”
Mr. Kodera further mentioned that the next PlayStation will be looking to incorporate mobility just like the Nintendo’s popular Switch console that can be used at home and as a portable device. With current devices which are mostly connected via the internet, Mr. Kodera said that it does not want its console to be limited by a single dedicated device.

Will that mean Sony will be coming up with multiple devices and not just consoles that will allow us to connect seamlessly via the internet? Though this is not new with the existence of Sony’s Remote Play capability which allows players to play their PlayStation games on-the-go with their PS Vita or other Sony devices (supported Xperia devices).

Chrono Cross revolves around Serge, a young man who becomes trapped in a parallel world and must uncover the truth of why the world is diverging.
Chrono Cross is a sequel to the Super Nintendo classic RPG Chrono Trigger. While it never reached the renowned popularity of its predecessor, Chrono Cross has been considered a high-quality RPG in its own right and one of Square’s best on the PS1.
Radical Dreamer is a text-based adventure game that acted as a side story to Chrono Trigger, depicting a story that takes place after the end of the time-traveling adventure. Cross roughly retells the same story as Radical Dreamers but with an expanded plot and RPG-style mechanics.
There is currently no confirmation that the game is coming to consoles other than the Switch however I would be surprised if it didn’t at least come to PS4.
Chrono Cross: The Radical Dreamers Edition will be released for Nintendo Switch on April 7th.

But of course, the Heian-kyo battlefield overhaul doesn’t end there. Even more surprises await your discovery in the battlefield!

In addition to the graphical and visual effect overhaul, the third anniversary’s Heian Festival also brings more wonderful content for players. A number of skins will be coming back for a limited time. Do also look forward to renewing classical skins, as well as a rewarding anniversary celebration event for everyone to participate in.
During this Heian Festival, Kyonshi Imoto’s Anniversary skin will be available for a limited time. Futakuchi’s and Onikiri’s cyberpunk skins will also be back for a limited time. And that’s not all! Futakuchi’s, Onikiri’s and Yamausagi’s skins will be dyed and upgraded into Royal skins even more dashing than before. Give your beloved shikigami a fresh makeover in the new year!
A new shikigami will be joining the battlefield on 31 December, so don’t miss everything above and more coming your way closer to the new year!
