3DS

SEGA has introduced a bunch of new characters that will be featured in the Sonic Boom games and television show. You can find art above and profiles below.

Old Tucker

Old Tucker is a happy go lucky farmer who mistakenly took the easy route to grow his village’s crops. Despite some setbacks, he is still able to spread his funny, southern charm with the villagers. Old Tucker is in Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric.

Hayward

Hayward, the hopeless farmhand, is a dreamer who constantly wants to go above and beyond to prove himself to others around him. Always looking to be a part of something bigger, something that makes a difference, he is in search for a reason or way to help to just show what he can do. Hayward is in Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric.

Salty

Salty is the self-proclaimed captain of the ocean. He is overly confident in his domain and does not care to take the opinions of others around him into consideration. His egocentric attitude is apparent, even though his words and actions are not always justified. In Salty’s world, it’s his way or the seaway! Salty is in the Sonic Boom animation and Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric.

More downloadable content is now available for One Piece: Unlimited World Red. Players can get their hands on the Robin Swimsuit Pack and more quests.

Here’s an overview of the new DLC:

ROBIN SWIMSUIT PACK
· An extra costume for Robin, a swimsuit with a loose summer top
· Plus one extra quest called “Sky Island Flash”

QUESTS FOR BUGS AND FISH
· Kings of Wildlife: quest for a chance to catch a wide variety of insects
· Legendary Beetle: Straw-Hat & his crew look for a legendary bug, be their ally in this quest
· Lord of the Seas: Luffy & his friends look for the most majestic of all the seas’ beasts… Get your fishing rod going
