The new 1.4 content is now live in Fire Emblem Heroes. Most importantly, the new Tempest Trials event is now available. For the next two weeks, you can attempt to clear this challenge as often as you can manage to earn rewards such as 4-star and 5-star versions of Masked Marth and two new seals. New quests are also available that require you to clear the Tempest Trials at various difficulty settings.

To help you with the Tempest Trials, a new summoning is also available until June 22nd. It features the bonus units that increase your score by 40% if you use them in the trials: Lucina, Robin (male), Tharja and Nowi.

Finally, Xenologue 2 is now available as well. It can be found under Main Story -> Paralogues, alongside the rest of the periodically released side stories.

Hollow Knight could launch on Switch sooner than expected. This version of the game “is now feature complete,” and the team is now just focusing on testing as well as optimization.

When Hollow Knight launches on Switch, it will come with free DLC. Team Cherry revealed the Hidden Dreams content pack comprised of new bosses, a couple of music tracks, and more. Find a teaser for Hidden Dreams and a breakdown of what’s included below.

– 2 New Bosses – Leap into battle with the mightiest of foes! These epic duels will test even the most skilled of players. Each fight grants rewards to the victor, though note: Engaging with these imposing bosses is entirely optional! Who are these enigmatic, impossible-to-discern figures? We’re not telling! It’s up to you to find out!
– 2 New Music Tracks – Epic battles need epic music and Chris’s been preparing just that, with new stirring boss themes for each encounter! He’s gone all out on these ones!
– New Upgrade: Dream Gate – Discover a whole new method of traversing Hallownest! Slice through the Veil and travel in an instant from one corner of the kingdom to another.
– A New Stag Station Uncovered – Hallownest’s stags once travelled the breadth of the kingdom but with the departure of the King, one special station was walled away, hidden from bugs and forgotten by stags, until now!

Blazing Lazers came out on the North American Wii U Virtual Console a few weeks back. This week, it’s Europe’s turn. A listing on Nintendo’s website shows that Blazing Lazers will be available in PAL regions tomorrow.

Here’s an overview:

“Blazing Lazers is a vertical-scrolling shooter that was praised for surpassing the limitations of the hardware of its time.

Players control the extraordinary firepower of their Gunhed Star Fighter to take on the Dark Squadron that has begun its invasion of Earth. Collect power-ups to increase your ship’s battle strength to cut through enemies and defeat the bosses in all nine areas.

Of course, as part of the Soldier series, the game contains a good balance of fast-paced speed with catchy drum-propelled background music. Couple that with the Field Thunder that can be used to destroy enemies in one fell swoop for the ultimate sense of satisfaction! With its finely-tuned difficulty levels, Blazing Lazers is a shooting game that anyone can enjoy!”

Blazing Lazers will cost £5.39 / €5.99.
