One of the present and future sci-fi visionaries in the film industry, Joseph Kosinski, has directed a kick-ass Destiny live-action trailer called “Become Legend”. The project comes as a result of a collaboration between Bungie, Activision and 72andSunny.
The TRON: Legacy and Oblivion helmer beautifully frames the conflicts and scope of Destiny as a Fireteam of Guardians embark on an epic journey cross-planets, taking down the Hive on the Moon, the Vex on Venus and the Cabal on Mars, all set against the background music of the “Immigrant Song” by Led Zeppelin. Check it out embedded below. Destiny is out in just a few days on September 9, for the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, Xbox One and Xbox 360.

Today Gematsu was able to obtain some new scans from this week’s issue of Famitsu with plenty of details concerning the new ninjas that are being added into Senran Kagura: Estival Versus. As we previously learned, the four new characters happen to be three sisters plus an old woman galled a grandmother.
Sayuri is the elderly woman who carries a large tobacco pipe that looks like it also works as a cane and she seems like she might be the leader of the group while Renka, the oldest sister, wears a red outfit and wields two sticks that are called Raitei. The other sister, Hanabi, is a girl who loves festivals and wears Japanese style festival clothing and uses a gigantic hammer as a weapon while the youngest sister Kafuru battles, oddly enough, with a water gun and is mocked by Hanabi for her flat chest.
The scans and images of the girls can be found below and it is worth noting that the magazine also confirms that clothing in the game can now become wet and partially see-through as well as torn up. Currently Senran Kagura: Estival Versus is set to be released for the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation Vita in Japan on March 26th.
Today a demo for Square Enix‘s upcoming Final Fantasy rhythm game, Theatrhythm Final Fantasy: Curtain Call, was released on the Nintendo 3DS eShop in both North America and Europe. Alongside the release of this demo the company also released a new trailer for the game, which is set for release September 16th in North America and the 19th in Europe, that focuses on the music from the Lightning Trilogy.
The demo for Theatrhythm Final Fantasy: Curtain Call includes two songs, the first beign “J-E-N-O-V-A” from Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children and “Sabin’s Theme” from Final Fantasy VI. Similar to other 3DS demos, the demo can only be played thirty times before it is unavailable but those who do download the demo will automatically have extra characters unlocked once the full game is released.
Today Atlus USA released the first couple of English character trailers for Persona Q: Shadow of the Labyrinth and this set happens to focus on the protagonists of Persona 3 and Persona 4. Of course other characters and gameplay footage are shown in the videos, which can be found below, but the primary focus is on those two characters.
Persona Q: Shadow of the Labyrinth is set to be released for the 3DS in North America on November 25th while gamers in Europe will be able to pick the game up on November 28th.
Today Nippon Ichi Software released some of the first pieces of artwork as well as screenshots for Disgaea 5 and alongside these images comes new details for the title. First of all, the main enemy in Disgaea 5 appears to be a demon emperor named Void Dark who has been destroying Netherworlds at whim with his brutal ten billion soldier strong army of Lost. While no one has dared to stand up to him, and those that did were obliterated, demons within his own ranks have begun to rise up against Void Dark and that is who players will be controlling.
Disgaea 5 will take place across numerous Netherworlds with demon lords teaming up to fight against Void Dark. This includes Kilia who is the protagonist and is not a demon lord, but has powers rivaling one, Seraphine of Gorgeous Netherworld, and Usalia of the Rabbit Netherworld.
It also appears that there is a new “Revenge” system being implemented into the game’s combat system, though no details about the system have been revealed at this time. Disgaea 5 is set to be released in Japan in Spring 2015 for the PlayStation 4 so we can likely expect an announcement from NIS America sometime early or mid-2015.
If you were hoping that Nintendo would take the chance to rectify one of the mistakes that the company had made when they released the Nintendo 3DS with their upcoming New Nintendo 3DS you will be disappointed to hear that they will remain the only major console/handheld publisher to still use region locking, even for the New Nintendo 3DS.
Speaking with GameSpot, Nintendo stated that the system will remain region locked, which has been a source of much grief for gamers in Europe who regularly receive certain titles many months, even a year or two, over North American games and those who wish to import Japanese games.
Atlus USA has announced that first run copies of Tears to Tiara II: Heir of the Overlord will include a thirty one page “Visual Works” art book. This art book contains character sketches and details from artist Naru Furudera. The company also detailed some of the main characters that will be in the upcoming RPG and you can read all about them below.
Hamil
The sole survivor of Hispania’s royal bloodline. A reserved and kind boy. His father, an Imperial noble and governor of the province, was killed seven years ago for the crime of plotting a rebellion. As the son of a traitor, Hamil has lived under the Empire’s watch ever since.
In order to overthrow the Empire, Hamil lives under the guise of a weak and cowardly boy, but in truth, he is a composed tactician. He has inherited his father’s will and is waiting for an opportunity to destroy the Empire and earn Hispania’s independence. His secret, furtive desires summon Tarte.
Tarte
A girl from the spirit world. The goddess of prosperity and war who has been worshiped since ancient times. Though called a deity, she is in truth a daughter of the elf tribe, who walked the earth before mankind.
She may sometimes be arrogant for a goddess, but is compassionate and direct. Every day, she wishes to become a wise and benevolent goddess who teaches and guides mankind. She has been with Hamil’s family for ages and, in accordance with his wishes, decides to help fight against the Empire.
Due to her lengthy stay in the spirit world, she has strong aspirations for the earth and is full of curiosity.
Kleito
The caretaker of the fortress-city of Tartessos. Despite her appearance, Kleito isn’t human, but a daughter of the strongest and wisest of all ancient beings: the dragon tribe. The few who know her true identity address her as the dragon god.
Although she tends to keep quiet, she is intellectual and excels as a caretaker. And though she is well-versed in ancient folklore, she does not speak about the secrets of the dragons.
Monomachus
A martial-arts instructor of a vocational school. As Enneads’s aid, Monomachus teaches the village children. When he was younger, he was known as the strongest warrior in Hispania, and even after he retired from the battlefield, he served as an advisor to the late governor.
Monomachus values earnest fortitude and valor, and often favors military action.
Daphnis
A former slave who works as Elissa’s servant. Daphnis was bought by Elissa’s family at an early age and freed, and now willfully waits upon Elissa. As her bodyguard, he dresses as a girl in order to follow Elissa wherever she goes.
Although indecisive and timid, Daphnis shadows Elissa-who often finds herself in dangerous situations due to her personality-and assists her in whatever way he can.
