Atlus USA has announced that all pre-ordered and first-run copies of Dungeon Travelers 2: The Royal Library & the Monster Seal will come with a 17 month calendar featuring hand-drawn artwork of the game’s female characters. Since the artwork is similar in style to the artwork that will appear in the game, it will be fairly lewd from the looks of the image above but of course will be kept to an M rating.
PlayStation Japan recently revealed the official Persona 5 game page and with this official website comes a batch of high-res screenshots. It is worth noting that a large batch of these screenshots come from the gameplay trailer we saw back in February but a handful of them come from poorly shown magazines or thumbnails so it is certainly worth checking them out below.
As for the game itself, Persona 5 is still currently scheduled for release on the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 3 later this year for Japan, and while no time frame was announced, Persona 5 has also already been confirmed for release in North America by Atlus USA.
If you happen to remember playing Grandia II back on the Dreamcast then you’ll likely be quit disappointed that other than a third game being released four years later for the PS2, the series has more or less been forgotten about.
However it seems that GungHo Online Entertainment is listening to fans and thanks to fans “enthusiastic feedback” from an April survey, the company will be bringing the original Dreamcast version of Grandia II to PC through Steam.
Speaking with GameSpot, the president of GungHo America, Jun Iwasaki, revealed that the game will feature high-definition visuals, support for Steam achievements and trading cards, as well as mouse and keyboard support.
As someone who grew up a fan of DC Comics, I have really enjoyed The CW’s Arrow and The Flash series from Greg Berlanti. But this upcoming season, Berlanti has a new superhero series coming to CBS starring Kara Zor-El, known to us as Supergirl.
Today, CBS released an extended trailer for the upcoming series. SPOILER WARNING: The trailer pretty much shares the plot of the entire pilot — including its ending — so don’t watch if you have never seen a superhero film or television show and want to be surprised:
I am ecstatic to see Superman does in fact exist in this world. I was honestly worried that they would try and keep him non-existent in their TV universe. We are still unsure if CBS will let Kara exist in a shared universe along side Ollie and Barry in CW’s Arrow and Flash, but we still have our fingers crossed. After all, CBS co-owns The CW alongside Warner Bros. and Berlanti is producing and showrunning all three series. Fingers crossed and all that. And it looks much better than whatever DC Comics is doing with their movies.
Supergirl stars Melissa Benoist as the titular character along with Mehcad Brooks as Jimmy Olsen, Calista Flockhart at Cat Grant, David Harewood as Hank Henshaw, and Chyler Leigh as Alex Danvers (Kara’s foster sister). The series is developed by Greg Berlanti and Ali Adler (who also wrote the pilot together) along with Andrew Kreisberg. I’m also quite excited to see Calista Flockhart back on TV playing a strong character like Cat Grant. It was also announced that Dean Cain — who portray Superman in the ’90s television series, Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman — and Helen Slater — who played the titular role in 1984’s Supergirl film — will appear in the series as undisclosed characters.
Supergirl will air Mondays at 8pm on CBS beginning this November. I guess I might actually have a reason to watch CBS next season.
Last month Nippon Ichi Software announced that they were planning on releasing an enhanced edition of The Witch and the Hundred Knight for the PlayStation 4 under the name The Witch and the Hundred Knight Revival with graphical upgrades as well as the ability to play as Metallia and now they have released a teaser trailer for the game.
That isn’t all the news they had for the game however as the company also released a teaser trailer announcing that The Witch and the Hundred Knight 2 is in the works though at the moment no actual details have been released about the title. For now you can check out both teaser clips below.
Life is Strange Episode 2 (full review here) continued the great experience from episode 1 and now Dontnod and Square Enix have announced the release date for Episode 3 ‘Chaos Theory’. The May 19th release date lines up nicely with the every six weeks plans Square Enix had for the game. Chaos Theory will have protagonist Max and her best friend Chloe breaking into their school after dark but their motives are being kept hidden for now. The disappearance of Rachel Amber that was heavily mentioned in Episode 1 will be touched on in this new episode as well.
Life is Strange Episode 3 will be available on PC, PS3, Xbox 360, PS4 and Xbox One on May 19th. The season pass will give you access to all five episodes for $29.95 AU while each episode costs $7.55 AU individually. I’ve really enjoyed the series so far and am definitely looking forward to what Episode 3 can bring the table. Look out for our full review a few days after the launch.
Bandai Namco has revealed that the ever changing Yoshimitsu will be playable in Tekken 7 and this time around he is far different looking than before as he now appears to be wearing a bunch of tentacles. Despite his strange new appearance Yoshimitsu appears to retain nearly all of his old moves including a few new moves.
You can check out the announcement trailer as well as an extended twelve minutes of gameplay footage below. As for the game itself,Tekken 7 is currently set to be released in Japanese arcades starting on May 12th and will eventually be released on the Xbox One and PlayStation 4 sometime in the future.
Earlier this month it was revealed that Hidetaka Suehiro, better known as SWERY, was planning on bringing D4: Dark Dreams Don’t Die Season 1 to the PC and in a recent interview with Famitsu he has revealed that Access Games plans on releasing the title on June 5th for $14.99.
While this news is great for those who never had a chance to play the original due to it being an Xbox One exclusive, the exciting news from this interview comes in the form of a screenshot teasing D4: Dark Dreams Don’t DieSeason 2. This comes as a pleasent surprise since this is the first time that a continuation to the story has been confirmed in any way.
Forget about the NBA Playoffs, the FIFA World Cup or the Olympics, the Nintendo World Championships are back! In a hilarious video (embedded below) Reggie and crew detail Nintendo’s plans for the E3 Expo 2015 which actually start a little before the expo itself.
The 25 years in waiting return of the Nintendo World Championships will take place on June 14th. The main digital event that has replaced Nintendo’s big E3 main stage show now will take place on June 16th at 9 AM Pacific Time (which unfortunately is 2 AM June 17th for everyone in Australia) and lastly, the Nintendo Treehouse will be making a return once again, showcasing live videos and interviews from the E3 show floor. Mario Maker will also be able to be played at certain Best Buys across the U.S. on June 17th and June 20th.
Full details on each event from the official press release are below but seriously though before you read them, watch the video, it gave me more than a few good laughs and reminded me why we love Nintendo so much despite their shortcomings. E3 Expo is just over a month away and runs from June 16th – 18th.
