Bandai Namco’s new teaser site for Assassination Classroom: Grand Siege on Kurosensei can be found here. Three screenshots are included on the page, though they’re a bit difficult to see given how small they are. Other than that, there isn’t much to see currently!

New music and sound effects have been found in Donkey Kong despite the fact that the game was released over thirty years ago.
