Theatrical trailers will be included as on-disc extras. This set has a suggested retail price of $49.99 USD, but is currently available for pre-order here for $32.49 USD.

A few days ago we learned of two new characters for Tales of Berseria though at the time all we had was one shoddy image of said characters. Well thanks to the latest issue of Famitsu, courtesy of Ruliweb, we now have a better idea of what Rokuro and Eleanor will look like in the game as well as some new details for the both of them.
First we have Rokuro, who is a Daemon that has managed to retain his reasoning and follows Velvet thanks to a debt he owes her after an unknown event in the past. While he prizes the great sword on his back, he primarily fights using two swords.
As for Eleanor, she is a member of the “Seiryou” or “Holy House” that opposes the demons and while she may be kind to nearly everyone, anyone standing against her or the house are shown her vicious side. Eleanor is skilled at fighting against daemons and thanks to Velvet also being a daemon, the two will clash often throughout the game.
Currently Tales of Berseria is set to be released in Japan sometime in 2016 and has already been confirmed for Western release on the PlayStation 4 and PC.
With the first, though perhaps final due to Imageepoch’s closure, game in the 7th Dragon series heading over to North America, Sega has opted to release their first English trailer for 7th Dragon III Code: VFD. The trailer focuses primarily on showing just how bad things became when the destructive power of the dragons began to destroy humanity.
With toxic Dragonsbane flowers poisoning the world and dragons flying around freely, players join Nodens Enterprises, a video game company that has a plan to try and stop the dragons by traveling through time to three different eras in an effort to weaken the dragons’ power. Check the trailer out for yourself below and keep an eye out for 7th Dragon III Code: VFD when it is released sometime this summer.
Viz Media’sBleach Movies: “The Unforgiven Double Feature” is now available in North America. This DVD release was only announced a week ago. The two-disc set contains Bleach the Movie: Fade to Black and Bleach the Movie: Hell Verse. It has a suggested retail price of $14.98 USD / $21.99 CAN.
Both films will be featured with Japanese audio and English subtitles and English audio. A production art gallery and movie trailers will be included as on-disc extras. The films were released in Japan in 2008 and 2010 respectively. Viz Media released Fade to Black on DVD and Blu-ray in 2011 and Hell Verse on DVD and Blu-ray in 2012.
Pied Piper, Inc. has announced that they will be holding another crowdfunding campaign following the success of their Kickstarter campaign for Time of Eve in 2013. From March 1-31, 2016, Pied Piper will be holding a campaign on Indiegogo to release the Skip Beat! anime adaptation on DVD and Blu-ray in North America. They have already licensed the series and now need money to cover the costs of producing a home video release. Pied Piper describes the series as follows:
In the 25-episode shojo series, 16-year-old Kyoko Mogami is devastated to learn that her long-time crush Sho Fuwa has been using her as a servant while he waltzes to stardom. She vows to beat him at his own game and joins a rival talent agency, and in the process transforms from a docile people-pleaser to ingenious creative talent. The anime’s riveting story arcs include Kyoko’s discovery of friendship with fellow actress Kanae (“Moko”) Kotonami and her tumultuous relationship with romance-challenged star Ren Tsuruga, who slowly leads her away from revenge and returns her to the path of love.
The company’s goal is to source at least $210,000 USD, which will also cover the cost for a ‘basic’ English dub. The English dub will be produced by Mela Lee, Cristina Vee and Jason C. Miller. There will be stretch goals to enable Pied Pier to hire well-known voice actors, ADR directors and scriptwriters. The Indiegogo campaign page can be found here.

Many people have been waiting and it seems that the time for Fallout 4 DLC news is upon us. Bethesda has announced that they have three pieces of DLC prepared for release over the next three months and they have given us details, prices, and release windows for all three.
They happen to be called Automatron, Wasteland Workshop, and Far Harbor with the latter being a full expansion to the title while the other two are more in the way of additional features. To go along with this news Bethesda revealed that since they are actually planning on adding more DLC than before, that the previous $30 season pass will be increased to $50 in order to cover all of the content they plan on releasing throughout the year.
Those who already purchased the season pass will not need to buy it a second time nor will the price change happen instantly. Instead the price will be increased on March 1st, giving those who want to pick it up at a cheaper price nearly two weeks to have a chance to do so.
Full Details about each of the pieces of DLC can be found below:
