SEGA has sent out an official trailer for the new Zelda: Breath of the Wild collaboration in Phantasy Star Online 2 Cloud featuring Link. We have it below.

Square Enix has published the first web commercial for Octopath Traveler. It’s technically for the Japanese market, but has English narration. You can view the advert below.

During a new broadcast today, Level-5 debuted the first trailer for Inazuma Eleven Ares and showed off actual gameplay. You can view it below.

In the past year, City Connection has revitalized the Soldam and Penguin Wars series. The company now appears to be bringing back another classic IP: Psyvariar.

In an announcement covering this week’s news from the Nintendo Direct, Nintendo Hong Kong also includes a release schedule. “Psyvariar Restoration” is one of the titles listed. It’s on track for a July launch, though it should be released in other territories as well.

Unfortunately, we don’t have any details about Psyvariar Restoration just yet. The game originally debuted on arcades way back in 2000 (with other enhanced versions following later, including a new mobile version called Psyvariar Reassemble a couple of years ago) and featured vertical shooter gameplay. We’ll keep you updated on any news regarding Psyvariar Restoration in the future.
