The latest European episode of The Cat Mario Show has gone live on Nintendo’s YouTube channel. You can watch it below.

Nintendo have released a trailer for the latest piece of Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia DLC. Launching today, the “Rise of the Deliverance” pack serves as a prequel of sorts to the main game and details how the Deliverance got started.

Once again, Weekly Jump magazine has some new Dragon Quest XI info in its latest issue. This week, we’ve got new details on two party members and on one new location (thanks to Gematsu for the translation).

Veronica

Veronica hates being treated like a child. She can equip two-handed staffs and whips as weapons. Despite her small size, she is a tomboy who won’t flinch in a fight no matter her opponent. She can unleash beyond-powerful attack spells that prove her use as the party’s attacker.

Spells she can use include:

  • “Kafrizzle” – A powerful spell where a pillar of overly-hot flames attack the enemy.
  • “Gilaglade” – Heat up and clear away the enemy with the earth-shaking flame that is this powerful attack spell.

Her weapon skills include:

  • “Berserk Magic Circle” – A special skill using the two-handed staff that strengthens spells.
  • “Extreme Dragon Strike” – A special skill using the whip that consecutively strikes the enemy.

Senya

Senya is a healer who can cure her allies. She can equip spears and sticks. She has a kind heart and gentle personality. In contrast to Veronica, her language is awfully polite. Her easygoing and gentle personality may even make Veronica impatient at times.

Spells she can use include:

  • “Kerplunk” – A spell that heals all party members at the expense of herself.
  • “Kaswooshle” – An attack spell, which Senya can also use.
  • “Holy Light” – No description provided.

Her weapon skills include:

  • “Flash Strike” – A special skill using the stick and spear.
