Today Sony announced that owners of the PlayStation 4 can expect God of War III Remastered to be released on July 14th for $39.99, and we probably should have known this was coming as we’ve seen numerous remasters of all kinds lately, even though the titles may only be a few years old. The title will feature upgraded graphics, 1080p gameplay, and the team is targeting a constant 60FPS.
You can check out the announcement trailer for God of War III Remastered below where Sony uses the announcement of the game to celebrate the series’ 10th anniversary while also showing off some of the improved graphics.
Today Atlus released a new character trailer for Persona 4: Dancing All Night with this one focusing on Yosuke Hanamura. As with previous trailers, we see a number of dialogue sequences with other members of the cast followed by a short performance from Yosuke as he dances to the song “Your Affection.”
As you can see in the video, Yosuke will have a number of different outfits including a Halloween costume, an apron, and a festival outfit. Currently Persona 4: Dancing All Night is set to be released in Japan on June 25th while a North American release has been announced for sometime later this year.

Earlier this year Undead Labs announced that they would be re-releasing State of Decay onto the Xbox One on April 28th and recently they released the debut trailer for State of Decay: Year One Survival Edition. The trailer can be found below and features a bunch of gameplay footage as well as a number of quotes from fans and various websites as it details what is included in the package.
You see, State of Decay: Year One Survival Edition includes the original game in 1080p as well as the Breakdown and Lifeline DLCs plus some exclusive weapons, vehicles, and characters that will be pre-order and launch bonuses. It is worth noting that if you happen to be double dipping into the game, you’ll receive a 33% discount off of State of Decay: Year One Survival Edition when it is released.
Rhythm games have been working well for Sega lately and with companies like Atlus making a Persona 4 rhythm game it seems that the genre is on a resurgence. That being said, it does come as something of a surprise that Sega has announced a new PS Vita game that will be released this winter in Japan that will feature girls from numerous anime titles.
Miracle Girls Festival as it is called will be a rhythm title using the exact same gameplay engine as Project Diva and will feature a large number of anime girls, including those from YuruYuri, Vividred Operation, Kiniro Mosaic, and more. The full list of currently announced series, courtesy of Famitsu, can be found below.
Recently FUNimation announced the English dub cast for BlazBlue: Alter Memory and fans will be happy to see that they managed to retain almost all of the original English cast from the games. It is worth noting that Platinum the Trinity and Nago have been given different voices and for some strange reason FUNimation did not include the voice actors for Taokaka and Iron Tager in the list.
BlazBlue: Alter Memory is an adaptation combining the stories of both the first and second games in the BlazBlue series and aired back in 2013 to mixed reception from fans of the original titles.

Saturday 21st marks the release date for two big releases for Nintendo with Mario Party 10 and the Super Mario Amiibo collection.
Mario Party 10 is available exclusively for the Wii U and features three main modes with the asynchronous multiplayer mode Bowser Party, main Mario Party mode and Amiibo mode, where all six of the Amiibo mentioned below will unlock a new board and a new way to play. There are also unique boards for Rosalina, Donkey Kong, and Wario which you can unlock using the Super Smash Bros. Amiibo for those characters.
The Super Mario Amiibo collection contains new models for Mario, Luigi, Peach, Yoshi and Bowser as well as the first Amiibo for the popular Toad. If these sell anything like the previous few waves be prepared to hunt for them in stores if you didn’t secure a preorder for the collection. You can also purchase a bundle which includes a copy of Mario Party 10 plus a Super Mario Amiibo.
If you thought that Compile Heart was done with announcing new Neptunia games then you’re quite wrong as they have announced a new crossover game with Neptunia and the Sega Hard Girls series. The title is called Chōjigen Taisen Neptune VS Sega Hard Girls: Yume no Gattai Special, simplified as Hyperdimension Neptunia VS Sega Hard Girls, and will be released on the PS Vita sometime in the future.
No details about the game were announced at the time but for those who are unaware, Sega Hard Girls is a series that re-imagined past Sega hardware systems as girls, including characters such as the Dreamcast, Sega Saturn, and Mega Drive.
We recently detailed what would be included in DLC pack 2 for Dragon Ball Xenoverse when it leaked out of major Japanese magazine V-Jump, but now we have full details and official screenshots from Bandai Namco giving us a look at just what you will be paying for in the yet to be dated DLC pack. The pack will include:
• Mira, Towa, Eis Shenron and Nuova Shenron as playable characters
• 3 Time Patrol Quests
• 3 Parallel Quests
• Pan GT as a Master and her 5 Master quests
• 6 full costumes from Pan, Gogeta, Super 17, Mira and Towa. (Not sure if there are actually only 5 costumes or one isn’t listed here).
• 24 signature moves from Pan, Mira, Towa, Eis Shenron and Nuova Shenron
• 6 new Z-Souls:
• Eis Shenron’s Z soul – I’m doing fine.
• Nuova Shenron’s Z soul – That’s how I fight!
• Pan’s Z soul (Master) 1 – This is my best move!
• Pan’s Z soul (Master) 2 – Dumped agaaaain!
• Mira’s Z soul – I feel it… A powerful energy!
•Towa’s Z soul – Revival of the Demon Realm is at hand
Pretty decent amount of content here and playing as two of the shadow dragons is definitely cool and will give us a nice portion of the GT roster. If I’m not mistaken (let me know if I am) this is the first time Eis Shenron is playable in any Dragon Ball game.
In a nice treat to ease the pain of some of the worst RNG implementation in recent gaming, Bandai Namco also announced that each week they will be giving away a Dragon Ball from the Time Space Delivery counter. Simply walk up to the counter and you can claim your prize. Dates for the Dragon Balls are below.
March 20th – Two-star Dragon Ball, Five-star Dragon Ball
March 27th – Three-star Dragon Ball
April 3rd – Six-star Dragon Ball
April 10th – Seven-star Dragon Ball
April 17th – One-star Dragon Ball
Pro tip, try and pick up the Dragon Ball from the Time Space Delivery counter as your last Dragon Ball as it takes much, much longer to get the last one then it does any other. You will not be able to claim the Ball if you already have it in your bag. Be sure to check out all the new screenshots of the DLC below and let us know if you will be picking up this pack or have already purchased a season pass. Happy Dragon Ball hunting!
