Thanks to CoroCoro, we have a new look at the Team Kirby Clash mini-game in Kirby: Planet Robobot. We’ve posted the gameplay video below.

With Bravely Second having just launched in North America, Game Informer spoke with co-producer at Square Enix Masashi Takahashi for an interview. The two sides chatted about player feedback, the new approach to character designs with this game, how the job classes are decided, and the series’ future.

You can find comments from Takahashi about all of these comments below. Head on to Game Informer here for the full interview.

This week’s Famitsu has a two-page feature on Kirby: Planet Robobot. There’s some recap, but bits of additional information as well.

First, here’s a breakdown of three more robot modes:

– Stone Mode: Can punch with giant hands. Other than that it can also punch the ground for a wide-range attack, or use the giant hands to defend from enemy attacks.

– Mic Mode: Attack with ear-splitting sounds from 4 big speakers. The damage range is very far.

– Esper/ESP Mode: Attack with Psycho Thunders thrown from Robobot’s hands. By launching four giant electric balls at once, it’s possible to attack multiple enemies simultaneously.

Langrisser Re:Incarnation -TENSEI- will be available starting on Tuesday. Take a look at a trailer for the 3DS game below.

XSEED made a big Corpse Party localization announcements yesterday, including the news that the 3DS game is scheduled for a summer launch in North America. The publisher has since put up a Tumblr post clarifying certain aspects of the release and more.

First, XSEED shared the following about retaining all voices and avoiding censorship:

– Worry the First: The 3DS version has no voice-acting, right?

Wrong! The 3DS version is fully voiced, utilizing the exact same Japanese-language voice recordings as the PSP version of the game, in all their 3D binaural glory. I think the origin of this rumor may have been the four 3DS-exclusive Extra Chapters – new content created specifically for this version of the game. These four Extra Chapters are not voiced (save for flashbacks to other parts of the game), but every other Chapter and Extra Chapter is, with not a single voice file from the PSP version missing or unaccounted for.

– Worry the Second: The 3DS version has to be censored, right?

Nope! All versions of Corpse Party released by XSEED Games are presented to you with no content removed or altered whatsoever (save for the small handful of sniggly things we had to change for legal reasons, like a Nokia ringtone). The ESRB M rating exists for a reason, after all, and our M rating for Corpse Party 3DS has already been secured.

You can find XSEED’s full post here. If you’re a Corpse Party fan, it may help you decide between the new 3DS / PC versions and the old PSP title.

Thanks to CoroCoro, we now have 13 minutes of footage from Kirby: Planet Robobot. See the latest gameplay below.

Nintendo has a new trailer for Bravely Second as the RPG launches in North America today. In the video below, you can get a closer look at the jobs system.

Update: Bumped to the top. This is now available for pre-order on both Amazon UK and Amazon Germany.


Today, Nintendo made a new announcement about Kirby: Planet Robobot for Europe. It mostly contains previously-known details about the game, but there is some news about a new product. Nintendo will be offering an amiibo bundle containing a copy of the game and a Kirby series figure.

Here’s the full PR recap:

15th April 2016 – Planet Popstar is being invaded by the Haltmann Works Company and its robotic army, and only Kirby can put a stop to their machinations in Kirby: Planet Robobot, releasing exclusively for Nintendo 3DS family systems on June 10th. Enemies better beware, as not only has Kirby got a range of both new and returning Copy Abilities, but the Robobot Armour that Kirby can pilot can make use of Scan Specs too!

In Kirby’s latest platforming adventure, Kirby can now explore Planet Popstar in brand new ways, as he can move scenery, access new areas, and uncover secrets by using the Robobot Armour’s handy Wrench. That’s not all it can do either, as by scanning enemies, it can unleash more powerful versions of some of Kirby’s well-known Copy Abilities, some of which change the platforming action in brand new ways. By analysing an enemy with the “Jet” Scan Spec, Kirby’s Robobot Armour will engage Jet Mode, causing it to fly across the screen in shoot-‘em-up style, while the “Wheel” Scan Spec activates Wheel Mode, turning Kirby’s Robobot Armour into a car that races between the foreground and background.

Update: This has now sold out.


If you’re in Canada and are still seeking a copy of the Bravely Second Collector’s Edition, you may want to check in with Amazon. It’s currently in stock here. I wouldn’t expect it to last too long!

On Twitter, Nintendo posted a few screenshots of two mini-games in Kirby: Planet Robobot. Get a closer look at Kirby 3D Rumble and Team Kirby Clash in the gallery below.
