Japan is joining North America and Europe with a new Splatfest in Splatoon 2. However, their theme will be quite different.

Japan’s next Splatfest is food-related, pitting Tsubuan and Koshian up against each other. These are two types of pastes made of red beans. Tsubuan is mostly standard, but Koshian removes bean skins.

The next Japanese Splatfest kicks off on September 23.

Square Enix is bringing Final Fantasy to Switch in a big way over the next several months. Final Fantasy XV Pocket Edition HD is out now, World of Final Fantasy Maxima is following in November, and we’re getting a ton of games next year – including Final Fantasy XII: The Zodiac Age.

Amazon has added in a listing for Final Fantasy XII: The Zodiac Age, which comes with the boxart shown above. It also confirms a price point of $49.99. The RPG is also coming to Xbox One and costs the same amount, so there won’t be a price hike for the Switch version fortunately.

You can pre-order Final Fantasy XII: The Zodiac Age on Amazon here.

Amazon has updated its listing for the Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Special Edition with the official packaging. We have it above.

Of course, the image isn’t 100% complete. Isabelle is missing from the side of the packaging… and how many more characters will fit in there? Fans will no doubt be speculating about that until the full roster is revealed.

Although production of the Sonic Mania Adventures series of animated shorts was presumed to have been completed over a month ago, it appears as though a new project might be in the works at SEGA. Confirmation of this may not have come as officially as the company would have liked, however, as the watchful eyes of the internet may have caught the series’ production manager slipping.

During a visit to SEGA’s headquarters yesterday, the production manager shared the Instagram post below with a rather clear indication that a new Sonic animated series is in the works in-house at SEGA.
