As announced through their blog, Housemarque is the latest member under the Playstation Studios umbrella. Most recently known for the Playstation 5 exclusive, Returnal, it may seem like a confirmation of something some have expected. Returnal is also really good, by the way; our review here.

Today I’m thrilled to welcome a new member to the PlayStation Studios family! I have been a fan of Housemarque since the studio’s early days when they introduced Super Stardust HD to PlayStation fans. Housemarque’s recent release of Returnal proves the studio is one with incredible vision, capable of creating memorable new games that resonate with our community. This addition enhances the creative force of PlayStation Studios, and I cannot wait to see what the future holds for Housemarque.

Welcome to the family, Housemarque!

Today is a big day for Housemarque and it has been over 26 years in the making. Our strong partnership with Sony Interactive Entertainment started with Super Stardust HD on PS3 and since then we have made arcade inspired games for all of the PlayStation platforms. With Returnal for PS5, our most recent release, our biggest foray into third-person action gaming solidified our voice and brand in the industry as delivering unique and quality player experiences.

We are so excited to finally join the PlayStation Studios family! This gives our studio a clear future and a stable opportunity to continue delivering on gameplay centric approaches, while still experimenting with new methods of narrative delivery and pushing the boundaries of this modern artform. Locally here in Helsinki, this also means that we will officially expand the PlayStation family to a growing industry hub and secure the legacy of the oldest game studio in Finland.

Finally, what this means for our fans? We at Housemarque are gamers, and we have grown from the need to perfect and tinker with facets of games that we have found most fascinating. We are also not known for shying away from running our own course and trying out new combinations. With the backing of SIE and its family of studios supporting us, we can truly grow into our place in the industry and show what Housemarque can create with no limitations. We can’t wait to show everyone what will be in store in the upcoming years, and we hope to usher in more lasting memories and exhilarating titles for the next quarter century and beyond.

Star Wars Outlaws Revealed At The Xbox Games Showcase

Star Wars Outlaws, Ubisoft’s game based on the sci-fi franchise has just been revealed at the Xbox Games Showcase earlier today.

The reveal shed some light on what players can expect when they finally get their hands on Star Wars Outlaws which is scheduled to release in 2024.

The trailer showcased multiple iconic locations throughout the Star Wars universe and a very recognizable cantina in a desert-like area which can be safely assumed to be Tatooine as well as what looks like the gambling city of Canto Bight.
There was some space combat highlighted which may suggest that the game will also include that particular feature as well. The story seems to be focused on your character and her team which was shown so far to be comprised of a man named Jalen and an Assassin Droid from the Clone Wars Era.

Sonic Superstars Feels Like A Classic Sonic Game With A Sprinkle Of Tasty New Stuff

Blue streak speeds by. Too fast for the naked eye. Sonic The Hedgehog. On this, the 32nd birthday of SEGA’s indomitable blue blur, we got to check out Sonic Superstars- a surprisingly apt game, since it seeks to return to 2D sonic, with new levels instead of the more tribute-flavored attempts of Mania, Generations and even Frontier. The game is available at Suntec Singapore Convention & Exhibition Centre as part of Olympics Esports Week, where it’ll be playable until this Sunday.

Image Credit: SEGA
Sonic Superstars makes this departure pretty clear in the presentation, since the first thing you’d notice is that Sonic and friends are in 3D, rather than the pixel sprites of yore. As someone who grew up with the cuter rounder sonic before we got the lankier modern one, it’s pretty great seeing Superstars return to that. There’s a total of four characters we got to try, ranging from classics like Sonic, Knuckles and Tails to even Amy, who’s sporting her classic design.

The characters themselves feel pretty distinct- just like older Sonic games they each have their own unique quirks, like Knuckles gliding and climbing or Tails flight. Although, as with everything else we’ve seen, it looks like SEGA’s not content for the characters to just be one-trick ponies, either.
Lots Of New Toys
A new feature in the game is various power ups, letting you do all sorts of special moves. These are cooldown-based and really add to the flavor of Sonic, since rather than worrying about hoarding them like you would consumables, you only need to worry about timing. From what we’ve seen, there were two power-ups: a waterfall traversal that envelopes you in water, as well as a more offense-based ability that has Sonic summoning an army of shadow clones.

I really prefer this to the bubble power ups of older sonic games, since that means there’s a higher chance of future levels having some sort of use for them, rather than just knowing that there’d be a use for a bubble if there’s one suspiciously in the middle of the stage.
Image Credit: SEGA
That being said, the star of Superstars is the levels themselves. I don’t think it’s controversial to say that a lot of 2D Sonic Games had been held back by the tribute aspect of recent titles. Superstars breaks a lot of new ground by adding a Z axis in some sections, letting you move toward or away from the camera.
Considering how much games like OlliOlli World excels for it, it’s great to see Sonic Superstars using this feature. The feature itself doesn’t feel overused- meaning you’d want to keep an eye out for the track shifts so you can react on time.
Thankfully, classic Sonic fans will rest easy knowing that it’s not all about violently reinventing Sonic- plenty of other 2D staples like alternate paths are there, as well as the ability to backtrack if you think there might be a better path you zipped past.
Elaborate Boss Stages, Hopefully
The demo build we tried also features some boss battle, which seems a lot more elaborate than anyone whose only memory might be the early Egg Robots. Boss battles now actually span multiple screens, not unlike 3D Sonic games as the boss tries to tamper with your ability to platform until they open up to an attack.
Image Credit: SEGA
These stages are simple but not necessarily easy- it should be noted that the one stage we played seemed fairly early on, so the idea of “find the safe spot in the projectile wall and counter” might only be the precursor to the kind of screen-polluting mess that would allow Sonic to finally tap into the Touhou demographic.
Considering the offensive nature of the clone attack, I’d love to see some more elaborate bosses coming in- especially if they start operating on a “this ability hard counters that boss” logic.  That being said, as a South East Asian, it fills me with great joy that Sonic Superstars gives me the visceral satisfaction of destroying a giant mosquito.
Refreshing Twist
Image Credit: SEGA
I gotta say, it’s great to see new ideas being added to 2D sonic, or even just given a fresh coat of polish. Considering how much the original Sonic The Hedgehog changed platforming back in its heyday, it feels like Sonic Superstars is going to have quite a bit going for it, especially since the levels would have been designed with the four-character roster in mind instead of having them added later on.
The hands-on build is available at SEGA’s booth at Suntec Singapore Convention & Exhibition Centre, so don’t forget to try it out for yourself this weekend if you want some good 2D Sonic to play.

GamerBraves Newsletter Vol. 103 – The Glory of The Barbie/Oppenheimer Double Feature

Octopath Traveler II has revealed a new trailer and new information about two of the eight travelers that will join the party on their journey: Ochette The Hunter and Castti The Apothecary.

The story of Octopath Traveler II takes place in Solistia, a land comprising an eastern and western continent divided by the sea. Here you will journey with eight travelers from different regions for journeying across the land.

Here are just two of these travelers:
Ochette The Hunter

Follow us on Twitter

and Tweet us
Tweet to @GamerBraves

Your name is Ochette, and you are a hunter. Your tale begins on the isle of Toto’haha alongside your fellow beastlings. Despite your troubles with the human islanders, you live a carefree life. That is until you learn of an encroaching calamity known as the Night of the Scarlet Moon.
“All right, Master Juvah. I’ll do it. I’ll find those Creatures of Legend and bring them back.”
Desperate to save your home, you set sail in search of those who can help…
As a hunter, Ochette can summon a number wild of beasts to assist her in battle. She can even capture monsters and turn them into special items.
She is voiced by Aya Hirano (Haruhi Suzumiya, Migi in Parasyte) in the Japanese dub and Suzie Yeung (Makima in Chainsaw Man) in the English dub.
Castti Florenz The Apothecary

Your name is Castti Florenz, and you are an apothecary. Your tale begins in a port town of the Harborlands. Discovered adrift at sea, you awoke to the realization that you could not recall your own name. The only clues to your identity are your satchel and skills as an apothecary.
“I need to rediscover who I am. And…there’s something else. Something important I’m forgetting…”
Unable to ignore the nagging feeling within you, you embark on a journey to recover what you lost…
Being an Apocthacery, Cassti’s main ability is to concoct ingredients to create healing or hazardous compounds. She can also inquire about information from townspeople or soothe their pain to allow them to sleep.
Castti is voiced by Michiko Neya (Riza Hawkeye in FullMetal Alchemist, Hungary in Hetalia) in the Japanese dub and Sarah Wiedenheft in the English dub (Power in Chainsaw Man).

The Hunter and Apothecary also have what’s called a Crossed Path, a new story feature in Octopath Traveler II that involves both travelers working together in one scenario.
Game Speed

In Octopath Traveler II, you can fast-forward event scenes and the automatic text speed at the touch of a button. You can also adjust the speed during battle, allowing you to enjoy the game at your preferred tempo.

Collector’s Edition

There will also be a physical Collector’s Edition which will contain the following content:

Octopath Traveler II Standard Edition Game
Bust figurines of the eight protagonists
Art book (44 pages)
Extended battle tracks CD

Early purchases of the physical version will receive the “Original Character Bookmark Set”.

Should you pull for Diablo in Slime ISEKAI Memories?

Just a few hours after we published our tier list, WFS decided to drop the Diablo banner in Slime ISEKAI Memories out of nowhere.

This new event and banner, Nation of Monsters Diabolic Secretary, adds dark-element characters as well as the Octogram Bazaar, where players can get Space Milim. Besides the new story content, here are all the new characters we’re getting:

4★ [Crimson Ogre Warrior] Benimaru

Protection Characters

and Tweet us
Tweet to @GamerBraves

5★ [The Talented Secretary] Shion

Diablo is a single-target dark-element physical damage dealer. His first skill, Devotion, buffs his ATK by 20% and reduces all enemies’ dark resistance by 10% for one turn. His second skill, Soul Manipulation, changes Soul of Skills x1 into Soul of Divine Protection while increasing Soul of Divine Protection gauge gain by 5% for one turn. Both skills are really cheap, with a cost of 25 skill points.
Thanks to his first skill, Diablo is an extremely powerful single-target nuker, similar to Gazel, but for dark teams. Gazel does have higher ATK, though. Overall, Diablo is a great character, but not as vital as say, Space Rimuru or Wind Milim who are extremely good in almost any team in Slime ISEKAI Memories. Pull for him if you love Diablo, but otherwise, it’s probably better to save your crystals to see what’s in store for Part 2 of Nation of Monsters Diabolic Secretary.

As for the other characters, Secretary Shion is an alternative to [Starve] Orc Disaster as a 5★ Protection character for dark teams. [Crimson Ogre Warrior] Benimaru is a single-target dark-element physical damage dealer who doesn’t have much going for him.

[The Proud Dragon Demon Lord] Milim Nava aka Space Milim is looking to be incredibly busted. Not only does she have the highest ATK in the game by a clear margin, but she also has an amazing self-buff and team buff. Her ultimate also has a higher damage multiplier, easily putting her above Gazel as the game’s top single target nuke. I’ll update and add her to the tier list once I obtain her from the Octagram Bazaar.

[TGS2022] Resident Evil Village: Shadows of Rose Preview – Resident Evil Meets Silent Hill

Resident Evil Village ended on a rather bittersweet note but that ending will now see a follow-up with its latest story DLC: Shadows of Rose which we played a preview for at Tokyo Game Show 2022. The DLC is a part of the upcoming enhanced rerelease Resident Evil Village Gold Edition. Here’s what we thought of it:

Warning This Preview will have spoilers for the ending of Resident Evil Village.

Legacy of Winters

The story will see Ethan Winter’s now teenage daughter, Rose, struggling with her terrifying powers. In search of a way to break free from her cursed abilities, Rose journeys through a mysterious nightmare realm based on memories hidden within the Megamycete’s consciousness.

Just from the premise, you can already see a lot of parallels with another popular survival horror series: Silent Hill, specifically Silent Hill 3. Not only is the protagonist the teenage daughter of a previous protagonist but the game has a very different feel to the base Resident Evil Village. Instead of being action-focused, Shadows of Rose is much slower and almost psychological in its horror. This isn’t a bad thing mind you, it’s a very unique tone for Resident Evil and from the little we’ve seen, is also well executed.
Rose herself is a good protagonist, with a lot of personality to make her endearing. Throughout the Shadows of Rose preview, she’s recurringly speaking to someone named Michael who is never seen and only writes in text. We can’t confirm who this is but they seem friendly enough and they act as a solid mentor figure for Rose.
Back To The Village
The demo takes place in Castle Dimitrescu which feels nostalgic but new at the same thanks to the changes in level design and overall tone of the setting. It’s still a hauntingly gorgeous set piece that you can tell was made with a first-person camera in mind. The most notable change is that instead of the Lycans from Village, the molded from Resident Evil VII return to torment Rose.
Resources are also much more scarce this time around. It’s very much back to classic survival horror, debating whether to shoot an enemy or run past them since every bullet counts and I constantly found myself running out. You can of course craft more ammo but even those supplies don’t come too frequently.
This shift to the more horror side of Resident Evil also occurs in one of Rose’s new skills. She can use her powers to freeze enemies and these particular flowers, which can remove obstacles or stop opponents from spawning. There’s a catch though: she has to stay still and charge it. I was worried once you unlocked it would make things easier but no, now I’m spending every level worrying about getting jumped while I charge the ability. It’s really nerve-wracking as you’re pretty much a sitting duck until you’re done, adding a good level of dread to every use of it.

Overall the preview for Resident Evil Village: Shadows of Rose DLC left we anticipating more. The tonal change to a more Silent Hill-style psychological horror is an interesting shift that feels unique while still keeping in line with the events of Village. A really liked Rose as a protagonist and I want to see where her story leads.
In general, I’ve always preferred the more horror side of Resident Evil and while Village could get pretty scary (that freaking baby), returning to the moodier, darker Castle Dimitrescu of Shadows was another layer of dread. Can’t wait to go back in the full game!

Resident Evil Village Gold Edition and The Shadows of Rose DLC will be available for PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC on October 28th, 2022.

Fantasy Life Online is delayed again

The reason behind the delay is cited as something necessary in order to “increase the quality of the game overall and improve systems, UI, and other elements”, according to the developer. Fantasy Life Online will be available for Android and iOS devices, when it does actually get released. Given that this is Level-5, we do expect good things to come out as a result of the delay. While it is by no means the most punctual developer, the quality of its products have always been up there.

The official website has also been updated, with fairly lengthy overviews available in English. It talks about embarking on a new journey, entreating people to not forget about Journey to the West, to retain an innocent heart like Wukong, after overcoming “all these eighty one challenges”. “The story of Wukong tells more than Wukong himself. The monkey is the leading role for sure, but he is still a small part of the whole vivid world,” the website says.
“This is a wide wild romantic world, suffused with fancy and mystery, yet still seems truly existing. Black Myth: Wukong is our first attempt to create this ultimate fictional universe,” it continues. Game Science considers their game an “answer” to their questions, and hopes that everyone will enjoy what they have to bring.

Clash & GO – A Fusion of Clash of Clans AND Pokemon GO Out Now

If you think the world had run out of ideas, there’s always fusion – where you fuse two ideas into one that creates a singular concept which gives birth to a new idea. Clash & GO is one, and the company, Elyland, does not deny it. The game utilizes Pokemon GO’s augmented reality and geolocation technology along with the world’s craze over blockchain technology. So players will be able to generate crypto-currency and watch it grow and turn them over into cold-hard cash.

Sure that sounds very convincing isn’t it? Since everyone is into crypto-currency, the developers have decided to merge the blockchain technology into a game where players can enjoy playing it and earn some CGO (Clash & GO coins) or cash at the same time.

As mentioned on the title, the game combines both the popular Clash of Clans’ base-building gameplay with Pokemon GO’s AR gameplay into one. Players will be able to experience real-time battles as the mechanics of the game allows. So how do you earn some of that CGO to turn into cold-hard cash?
Follow us on Twitter
Follow @GamerBraves
and Tweet us
Tweet to @GamerBraves

You do it by battling with other players. Whether in the street, park or wherever you are where there’s someone to battle with in the virtual world like Pokemon GO. You can also capture local landmarks that exist on the map which will affect the influx of CGO tokens. Once you’ve earned enough CGO tokens, you can then convert them into Ethereum or Bitcoin, which can then later be turned into cash.

The game is pretty simple, but because money is at stake here, people are bound to be serious about it. The environment in the game changes every time you log into the game just like the ever-changing stock market. So even though you’re not on the game, the market will still continue to change as there are other players playing it which affects the influx of the CGO. Are you ready for some crypto-battle with other players? As these can be treated as real currency as well, you will need to be pretty hard working to play the game, battle players, capture landmarks and level up to catch up with the market. Are you ready for such commitment?
The game is out now for iOS and Android. For more info, you can check out their official site!

Colopl working on Disney TsumTsum Land

Japan-based game Colopl is currently in the midst of working on a new title for the TsumTsum series, which goes by the name Disney TsumTsum Land which is currently now open for pre-registration.

Unlike its predecessors, Disney TsumTsum Land slightly deviates from the traditional formula seen in other Tsum Tsum titles. In addition to the usual quests on the quest map, Disney TsumTsum Land also boasts a story mode. We are not sure what kind of story one is able to incorporate into this sort of game, but we trust Colopl to be able to sort that out.

[Gamescom Asia 2022] “Mobile Gaming Plays a Big Role That Helps The Game Industry” says Mathias Kuepper, Organiser of Gamescom in Interview

Gamescom Asia 2022 is back in full force with it returning as a physical event, and we had the opportunity to speak with Mathias Kuepper, the Organiser of Gamescom in an interview.

In this interview, we asked Mathias’ thoughts on Gamescom Asia, the game industry as a whole as well as ways to helping out indie game developers in the SEA region.

Pokemon Sleep Now Available In Malaysia

GamerBraves Newsletter Vol. 103 – The Glory of The Barbie/Oppenheimer Double Feature

[Interview is edited for clarity]
How does it feel to have Gamescom Asia back in person like this?
Mathias: I feel super happy about it, and I see a lot of smiles from people’s faces. A lot of people haven’t seen each other for so long. I mean, that’s what we do, we bring people together. Sure, we did a lot of online [events] as well, and while you’re gaming, you could stream but you can’t replace what you see here.
Follow us on Twitter
Follow @GamerBraves
and Tweet us
Tweet to @GamerBraves

I think that we are very happy that we’re back. We could finally realise the dream we had back in 2019 to start Gamescom here in Singapore.

I think the experience of seeing a developer who may have worked on an indie game you like, hanging out at the bar is cool.
Mathias: Yeah, exactly. Those are the opportunities that you don’t get anywhere else. Even if you accidentally get to know people, it’s not all about direct business transactions, it’s about building a network and seeing opportunities, being inspired. That’s what we want to do here.

With more eyes on the games industry following its growth during the pandemic, do you think there’s more pressure in the industry to produce financial results?
Mathias: I think overall, the pressure to make money is everywhere. Every industry needs to make money at some point. Of course in the beginning, there are more business coming in. But like in any other industries, you see those with good concepts and good content to survive and they make money, but others don’t make it. But I think that is something which the markets control.
There’s also what we wanted to add is the experience to see how people react when they try our games, it all helps companies. But in the business of making money, there was an era in the industry where a lot of people had talked about NFTs.
Companies are experimenting with things and not everything works out. Everything has future and overall I think the industry is healthy.

Considering Gamescom has the main Gamescom and Gamescom Asia. Do you notice anything different about the SEA game dev scene since they have a bigger presence here?
Mathias: Overall, there isn’t really much of a big difference. Of course, you can see the cultural differences and how they approach things. You have a lot of creativity in the region and the skills are there, so there isn’t much of a fundamental difference, I would say.
The games itself have a different local flavour. I think overall the region has a lot of potential and has a lot of good stuff coming out this region. That’s why the publishers are all so interested to come here and meet.
In the coming years, more indies are arriving and they can use this platform to find ways to get their games out in the market.

Considering the popularity of mobile games in the region, do you think they’ll have a bigger role to play in the coming years?
Mathias: I think the important part of mobile games is that it enabled the industries to grow so quickly. You know how if you have to push out consoles first, it’s a much bigger investment upfront for everybody. With mobile games, you get it to hand it out quickly and everyone can play it. I think that’s really important.
Games wouldn’t have this success story here if wouldn’t be through the mobile platform. You have the mature market where the consoles play a bigger role, even their mobiles are coming very strongly. You have consoles here but I think mobile gaming plays a big role that helps the gaming industry.

There is also where mobile game splits, where some push to look like console games while some want to have a mobile experience. What are your thoughts on this?
Mathias: This is an experiment from the publisher’s side to see how you can have the biggest reach. There’s no one side for this nor the ultimate solution. I think it’s good to have different channels overall.
I wouldn’t say one is better than the other, its more to different needs.

Can you tell us more about Gamescom Asia’s commitment to helping indie games in the region?
Mathias: It’s what I mentioned earlier, it’s a very big part in what we do in Germany with our show. The biggest area in the show by itself, apart from the major publishers is the massive indie area.
That’s the push we wanted to show, that next year and the coming years we would have the same concept with the indie area, where we see indies from each countries in Southeast Asia.
We understand that the indies don’t have the kind of money to say “I’m taking a big booth and want to have a big presence out here”. So that’s where we’re now working on, to have it set up and conceptualise it with government subsidies that can help them to come here.
The key is to bring in all the indie developers to one platform. That’s more attractive to the publisher to see them in one spot instead of travelling through the region to see them one by one.

I think they benefit from the networking that this kind of event gives?
Mathias: Yeah exactly. They get out and what they see here will help them to develop further. They’re able to see the specular, the publsihers and their competition so to speak. It’s really important to have these kinds of things.

Speaking of competition here, it will also help them grow because they can informally collaborate and stuff.
Mathias: Even if I say it’s competition, they are all in the same boat and they all have the same needs. They can come here and talk, even if there’s a party going on, they’re still talking and learning from each other. The networking is important.
Is there anything you want to say to all the Southeast Asian readers before we end off the interview.
Mathias: I hope everybody is excited for what’s to come, especially the addition of the Business to Consumer area that we have something for the fans. That’s something we are really excited about. For the trade off, we made a big step now and there’s a lot to come.

We’d like to thank Mathias Kuepper for taking the time to answer all our questions in the interview.

Short and mile horsegirls are fairly rare, so if you had wanted another one, there is Bamboo Memory to consider, but let’s see what she brings to the table.

At a glance, Bamboo Memory comes with a fairly decent assortment of speed up abilities to complement well with each other, which is important for betweeners since they tend to be at a disadvantage in shorter tracks when compared to strategies such as runner and leaders. To top it off, she gets a very good acceleration-based unique character ability that has conditions that are rather easy to fulfill. Of course, we will have to see the actual numbers on that to get a proper idea of how effective it really is in reality. As always, a horsegirl that is easy to train is very much welcomed, and thankfully, Bamboo Memory gets bonuses in the right stats, namely speed, power and guts. While it is hard to recommend to pick her up for short and mile Champions Meetings given that there are currently better alternatives, you will have a pretty decent time for the weekly PVP.

New images for Devil May Cry Mobile surface

China-based developer Yunchang Game first announced Devil May Cry Mobile (鬼泣：巅峰之战) in December 2017. Since then, information on the game has been fairly scarce, even the beta planned last November got delayed to further polish the game.

Now however, the maker has shared what it dubs “in-development game images”, giving us an idea of the kind of progress that has been made for this smartphone title.

Based on available information, the primary draw for the game is that the combat remains true to the main series, with the “infinite” aerial combos, multiple weapon types that can be switched back and forth, and unlocked camera view.

There is no word as to when the game will come out, but we may see a test version sometime within 2019 at the very earliest. Be sure to pre-register the game at its official site or TapTap page if you are interested!

This Snorlax Mug is Perfect For a Lazy Morning

The Pokemon Company has asked us to indulge our inner idle with one large yawning mug of Snorlax, the sleeping Pokemon. It holds around 50 oz. The perfect mug for a sleepy Monday. Looks like it could hold a lot of coffee as well.

That mug is an official licensed Pokemon product currently on sale in the US at GameStop. For SEA pokefans though the best place to get it would probably be Cheapfinds Online from the Philipines. You can preorder the mug on their Facebook Page.
They are pricing this fine Snorlax mug is priced at 650 Filipino Pesos (RM 54.56) with an additional 150 Pesos (RM 12.59) for air freight. That is relatively cheap for quality Pokemon Merchandise. They are currently accepting a 75 per cent downpayment. You can also PM them for faster replies and therefore faster orders.

Snorlax is supposed to be the Sleeping Pokemon. According to most Pokedex entries, Snorlax basically spends most of its time either sleeping or eating (relatable). It wakes up to eat about 400kg of food a day and then goes back to sleep (also relatable). It can also eat pretty much anything, including mouldy food and even poison.
Snorlax has most recently made a major appearance as a playable Pokemon in the new Moba game Pokemon Unite where’s a pretty good mid-tier defender.
Besides Snorlax, an Espeon Plushie was also recently launched for Build-A-Bear. So much Pokemon merch wherever you turn.

While at first glance it might just look like reused footage from the anime, it actually shows new sequences as the girls from the other schools make an appearance as well.
Assault Lily Bouquet mainly focuses on the girls from Yurigaoka academy, as you can tell by the black uniforms. However, the anime also briefly featured cameos by girls from other schools in one of the episodes, in which a Lily-wide search broke out for one of the other characters.

These girls will all be appearing in Last Bullet, the mobile game which releases January 20th for Android and iOS in Japan.
No Global/English release has been announced for the game so far. However, since the game is being published by Bushiroad, it’s not too far-fetched to assume one would be coming 6 months later, same with their other titles D4DJ, BanG Dream and Revue Starlight.
The game is currently available for pre-registration.

Ice Monster is having Monster Hunter World: Iceborne collaboration

Yesterday’s trip to Square Enix Eorzea Cafe not only filled our stomach but also filled our gamer soul. While strolling around Japan, the exhaustion from Tokyo Games Show has come back and it is taking a toll on the body. We come across a store  that is having Monster Hunter World: Iceborne collaboration and it quickly lifts up our exhaustion away.

In case if you don’t know, Ice Monster is a dessert shop featuring sweet cold ice shavings. They feature 2 Monster Hunter World Iceborne themed ice shaving but you can still try out their other ice shavings as well. This sugary sweet collaboration event starts from September 4th till September 23rd.

The collaboration store is located at:
ICE MONSTER omote-sando
6-chōme-3-7 Jingūmae, Shibuya City, Tōkyō-to 150-0001, Japan
+81 3-6427-4100

If you cross upon the store, you immediately welcomed with pictures from Monster Hunter World: Iceborne. With this many pictures posted, it is surely you can’t miss the store. If the outside already make you feel impressed, wait till you see the inside! The inside is decorated with tons of Monster Hunter World decorations. The serving tables are full of flat art design of dragons that will be inside the game.

As we mentioned that they will be having 2 Monster Hunter: Iceborne themed ice shavings.  First ice shaving inspired from the Frozen Land of Monster Hunter World: Iceborne. The ice shaving has a milky shaved ice based topped with chocolate mint ice cream and coconut milk tapioca with the white chocolate as the finisher. They put an image of Velkhenna on the top of the ice shaving to complete the look as if Velkhenna flew around the snowy mountain.

The other ice shave is inspired by a fellow character goes by the name Felyne! The ice shaving is coffee flavoured and topped with coffee flavoured jelly. It comes with 2 small cups of caramel and coffee sauce. You can pour or dress the dessert yourself as much as you want! To top it off they put the image of Felyne on top of the ice shaving. Both of the ice shavings are very fine so it taste so fluffy! The images on the ice shavings are actually rice crackers so it is edible! The taste however we definitely don’t recommend to eat it.

Based on the title and from the gameplay we’ve seen in the first PV, it looks like the selection of mobile suits will be limited to the Universal Century timeline, with characters like Amuro Ray from the original Mobile Suit Gundam as well as the Moon Gundam and Unicorn Gundam.
That being said, we’ll have to wait for more information when they have another presentation on November 16th for more information around the game.
This isn’t the only Gundam mobile game releasing- the Iron Blooded Orphans spinoff mobile game has also been in production for a while, but has yet to release.
While there’s been no official statement, there’s a good chance the game might come to the west, following similar plans for another Gundam game announced this year, Gundam Evolve.

Red Chocobo Murders FFXIV Playerbase, Again.

The newest 5.35 Update for Final Fantasy XIV has brought back one of the best combinations of cute mascot imagery and murderous intent, the Red Chocobo.

This is what you need to know. pic.twitter.com/hSKe3LAQDf

— おはお空 (@OkuuTheEngineer) October 14, 2020

The fowl creature is part of a new area, the Bozjan Southern Front. This is an extension of an area previously introduced in the “Return to Ivalice” raids. The areas are themed after Final Fantasy XII, where players there had to fight the Chocobo as well. Additionally, the red Chocobo was also a part of the raid series back then.

In Final Fantasy XIV, the Red Chocobo is one of the enemies you’ll fight in the new “Critical Engagements”. Named Red Comet, the beast has access to Meteor, an incredibly elaborate move players have to maneuver out of the way of.
Over the weekend, many players took to Twitter and Reddit to vent their frustrations with the bird, including comparing it to another famous red murderer, Mobile Suit Gundam’s Char “The Red Comet” Aznable. A lot of the players took the beatdowns in jest, with many great photoshops of the bird.
For those who are unaware, Chocobos are one of the most iconic creatures to come out of Final Fantasy. The large birds have taken on all sorts of looks based on their individual games’ art styles, with the latter games adopting a more realistic look for the birds.
The Red Comet fight seems to be more closely based on their appearance in Final Fantasy Tactics, with the fight’s soundtrack even using a remixed version of the theme from Tactics.

TEKKEN 8 officially announced at State of Play September 2022

At the September 2022 Playstation State of Play, a new teaser for TEKKEN 8 was unveiled, the game now officially announced. Unfortunately for fans, it still asks you to “stay tuned”, so there’s yet more waiting to be done.

There was a “get ready” teaser at EVO 2022, which we can pretty much assume lead into this. As we’re on the cusp of Tokyo Game Show 2022, we presumably will be able to get more actual details at the event. As such, once again, stay waiting, but at least TEKKEN 8 is officially announced!

For the time being, we have the Tekken World Tour 2022 Global Finals will take place in Amsterdam on 4 – 5 February 2023, and the Playstation Blog post from Katsuhiro Harada:

This trailer was actually taken directly from a certain part in the current work-in-progress Tekken 8’s story mode, played on PlayStation 5. In other words, all the character models, backgrounds, and effects are the same ones that are used in-game. Although this was captured from the story mode, it is not a pre-rendered movie made for the trailer but rather real-time rendered footage, running at 60 frames per second, similar to how you would experience the game in versus battle modes. (Of course, some of the effects, dialogue as well as the camera angle is currently being updated and may change when the game launches)

The Tekken series has always been known for the dramatic pre-rendered movies from its story mode. And in addition, we also have plenty of other exciting content from Tekken 8 we would very much like to show you. However, for our first announcement, we chose to focus on the content that showcases the quality of this game on PS5.
In the trailer, you can see this level of quality in the newly created playable character models that completely sets itself apart from the current Tekken 7, and in little details like how water droplets run down the character’s skin. This is not footage created solely for trailer purposes, but an actual real-time rendering of what is happening on the game screen.
Also, if you pay attention to the background during the battle, you can see dynamic waves and tornadoes, a huge tanker gradually breaking apart, storm rendering so realistic that you can feel the wind pressure, the density of the rain.
These are all battle stage effects to be used in this title. We are of course working hard to enhance the quality even further. In the latest version of the work-in-progress build, the quality is dynamically improving each day, with the giant tanker moving closer to the shore in the background and large flames flare up near where the character is standing. We hope you look forward to seeing them in-game!
Also, the Tekken series holds the record of being the longest-running story in a video game. Just as the ending dialogue of Tekken 7 mentioned, this new entry will focus on the father and son showdown between Kazuya Mishima and Jin Kazama. As for the meaning of the scene in the trailer and how significant it is to the main story,… we look forward to you finding it out when the game releases.
However, the game is still in development, so I’m afraid we will have to ask you to wait a little longer.
The entire development team is working hard to make this title worth the wait so thank you so much for your support.

The Closed Beta however, will be available only in two regions; US & CA. Lucky players who have pre-registered will be picked randomly to receive the Beta codes and redeem it on their official site!

The English version of the game that was announced back in June 2018, had a tremendous feedback which led to their pre-registration launched earlier this month. They currently have a total of 34,000 pre-registers and we are inching closer to a free USS Yorktown Class Aircraft Carrier!

Currently, they’re also having a milestone event for their Facebook and Twitter page, where if any of their pages reach 20k followers, they will reward us with 100 Gems and 5 Wisdom Cubes! So if you really love the game, go ahead and share it with your friends!

Also, since Azur Lane is a KanColle game, we hope that their fate will not be the same as MorningTec Japan’s Abyss Horizon. If you don’t know, SEGA had recently filed a lawsuit against MorningTec Japan’s Abyss Horizon over copyright infringement based off SEGA’s KanColle Arcade game. Though the issue seemed to have resolved, we’re also hoping that Azur Lane will not get the same treatment as Abyss Horizon. Since in their statement, SEGA did mention that they will be treating such cases more seriously in the future.
