The official Japanese Fire Emblem Warriors website has been updated to include character biographies and voice samples for the recently revealed Robin, Frederick, Lissa and Lucina. Sadly, that’s pretty much all there is to it as the website doesn’t provide any additional info on how the characters play and the bios are rather short and basic.

Fire Emblem Heroes’ latest content update went live today and with it came some new story chapters. One of the enemies you face in these chapters is Clive from Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia. However, Clive is not one of the characters available on one of the two new summoning foci that also went live today. The last time this happened was with Clarisse and the New Mystery of the Emblem content update. She was later made available to players in a Grand Hero Battle. It’s likely that the same will happen with Clive, so get ready for a Grand Hero Battle with him sometime soon.

If you’ve played around with the Splatoon 2: Splatfest World Premiere demo a bit, you might have stumbled upon the food truck run by Crusty Sean. You can buy different types of food there which gives you a variety of bonuses, such as increased experience earned in multiplayer battles. However, you can’t buy this food with money – instead, you need meal tickets. In the Splatfest World Premiere demo, it’s not really clear how to obtain these tickets. The Splatoon Twitter account has now revealed they can be gotten in Hero Mode and in Salmon Run. Like the special pieces of gear that can only be obtained in Salmon Run, this is another example of how the various modes interact with each other and how rewards earned in one of them can help you in another.

Quite a bit of Fire Emblem Heroes news today: first up, the Yamada Kotaro challenge is now live. Like the Kozaki Yusuke challenge before it, this pits you against teams used by Yamada Kotaro, an artist and character designer who’s  worked on the Fire Emblem series for a while now. For Heroes, he has designed Narcian and Lyn. If you beat the various challenge maps and the corresponding quests, you can earn a large variety of rewards.

New daily quests have also appeared. There are fairly simple, requiring you to defeat 10 and 20 enemies, respectively, and win two Arena duels.

Finally, the next new Grand Hero Battle has been announced. It will feature Berkut from Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia. It will start sometime next week.

For Splatoon’s Japanese Splatfests, the game’s official Twitter account always released special artwork of Callie and Marie which showed what side of the Splatfest they were on. Since Splatoon 2’s first Splatfest is now upon us in the form of the Splatfest World Premiere demo, the Twitter account has released special artwork of the new hosts Pearl and Marina. Pearl supports “rock” while Marina is on the “pop” side.
