CONQUER AND UNIFY JAPAN UNDER ONE BANNER IN NOBUNAGA’S AMBITION: AWAKENING COMPLETE EDITION, NOW AVAILABLE!

Six new scenarios and decisive battles added to the Complete Edition!

Hertfordshire, 5th June 2025 – Today, KOEI TECMO and developer Kou Shibusawa launched their military and historical simulation, NOBUNAGA’S AMBITION: Awakening Complete Edition, on Nintendo Switch™ 2 and PlayStation®5. Originally released in July 2023, NOBUNAGA’S AMBITION: Awakening celebrated the franchise’s 40th anniversary by inviting players to attempt Nobunaga Oda’s unfulfilled ambition to unify Japan through a series of escalating war strategies and diplomacy.

NOBUNAGA’S AMBITION: Awakening Complete Edition includes all the downloadable content, (excluding collaborative DLC), improved 3D rendering quality, 4k resolution* and mouse support**. Additionally, the Complete Edition enhances the overall gameplay experience with six new scenarios, new traits, and a new mode called “Decisive Battles” where powerful clans fight for each other’s domains in large-scale battles.

In the new “Decisive Battles” mode, players will lead their clan in a fight for dominance against neighbouring clans, where they will fight in two opening assaults whose outcome will have an impact on the final decisive battle. Players will have six months before each battle to carefully plan their strategies and get their troops in order before launching the next assault. Victory will result in the complete occupation of the opponent’s domain, making it a true showdown that could determine the fate to unify Japan.

The Complete Edition also introduces six new scenarios, both historical and hypothetical such as “The Birth of Nobunaga”, which features key characters as Nobunaga’s father, Nobuhide Oda, and cunning strategist Tsunehisa Amago. The historical scenario “Fateful Clash” takes players right after the Honnō-ji incident in June 1582, when Mitsuhide Akechi betrayed and attacked Nobunaga, while the hypothetical scenario “Absence of Great Conflicts” explores a world where the Ōnin War never occurred and the Oda clan’s rise continued smoothly. These new scenarios will allow players to experience a wide variety of Sengoku period situations, blending historical and fictional narratives.

NOBUNAGA’S AMBITION: Awakening Complete Edition is now available digitally on Nintendo Switch™ 2 and PlayStation®5. The new “Decisive Battles” mode and new traits will be added to the original NOBUNAGA’S AMBITION: Awakening game via free updates. The new scenarios will be available as paid DLC for the original version.

NOBUNAGA’S AMBITION: Awakening Complete Edition features Japanese voices and English texts only.

* Only for PlayStation®5. ** Only for Nintendo Switch™ 2.

Reborn to fight: Etheria: Restart is out now

Discover a story beyond the surface: digital consciousness, frozen earth — and a game set to redefine cross-platform RPGs

Shanghai, China — 5 June, 2025 | Etheria: Restart is set in a future where humanity’s minds have been uploaded into a digital sanctuary called Etheria, the game’s story explores themes of memory loss, corrupted identities, and digital permanence. It’s now officially live with players able to join on Apple store, Google Play — or on PC through the official website.

An ethereal hero RPG, developed by XD Games, the game offers a live arena experience blending sumptuous anime stylings with cinematic visuals, deep strategic combat, and fully customizable squad-building. Within Etheria, humans coexist with beings known as the Animus, who wield mysterious Anima Powers. That peaceful coexistence is shattered when the “Genesis Virus” emerges. The outbreak corrupts the Animus, threatening the survival of humanity itself. In response, the Hyperlinker Union forms to combat this threat.

Etheria: Restart evolves classic turn-based combat by incorporating diverse strategic mechanics and sandbox exploration, delivering a next-generation Team RPG experience. Countless combinations of teams can be created by synergizing Animus abilities, while issuing real-time combat commands, and freely controlling each Animus in battle. Master skill combinations and tactical setups to experience the thrill of overcoming powerful foes through superior strategy.

  • Draft-Based PvP: Real-Time Arena (RTA)

RTA mode introduces competitive PvP with a full draft system: players alternate picks and bans before the match starts. The meta shifts rapidly, and counter-picking becomes just as important as your actual gear. If you’re a fan of MOBA drafts or Summoners War World Arena, this is where the mind games begin.

  • Prowess System: Personalise Your Animus

Every Animus (hero) in Etheria can be tuned via the Prowess Wheel — a 12-tile grid of stat boosts, effect modifiers, and conditionals. You might build the same unit as someone else, but no two play the same. This is Etheria’s answer to talent trees, and it adds a subtle layer of mastery to every upgrade path.

  • Etheria World Summit (EWS): Competitive RPG on a Global Stage

Get ready for the Etheria World Summit (EWS) — a global PvP tournament with Swiss brackets, pick/ban drafts, and livestreamed finals. It’s a major step toward RPG esports, positioning Etheria: Restart as a competitive title from day one.

The top 16 players from the Final Test have already secured their spots. Starting today, the devs will invite the top 16 Summit Arena players from each server region (Global, Europe, Asia) — 48 in total — plus 64 more based on global rankings. The knockout stage follows a Swiss-system format, giving players multiple chances to shine. Only the top 8 will advance to the offline finals. Think you’ve got what it takes? Start climbing — and we’ll see you at the Summit! 

Your journey through this virtual metropolis of danger and opportunity won’t be one you take alone. Meet hundreds of unique Animus characters: a dual-wielding Reaper carrying a mighty coffin, a punk genius Hacker, a metropolitan Empress who manipulates Soul Flames … Join forces to confront unknown threats and unveil the mysteries of this futuristic city.

Join the Hyperlinkers in the Apple store, Google Play.
