This week’s Famitsu review scores are as follows:

As is a yearly tradition for the Japanese magazine, Famitsu published a feature in this week’s issue containing various game developer tidbits and teases for 2020. Atlus, Koei Tecmo, and Nippon Ichi Software were among the companies that had a few words to say. 

Here’s a roundup from the magazine, courtesy of Gematsu: 


The latest Japanese hardware sales from Famitsu are as follows:

Shin Megami Tensei V is one of the last big remaining mysteries for Switch. Despite being announced for the console during its initial reveal, it still hasn’t been released. Very little of the game has been shown as well.

Atlus did at least attempt to reassure fans that Shin Megami Tensei V is still on the way in the latest issue of Famitsu. A feature involving New Year’s cards and aspirations has a note from the company that states Shin Megami Tensei is “under active development.” Unfortunately, nothing further was mentioned.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate will host its latest Spirit Board this week, Nintendo has announced. “So Comfy! So Cool!” will feature characters wearing shorts, and you’ll gain extra snacks by defeating them. Ninten, Pyra, Giga Mac, and Claus will also appear at set times.

The new Spirit Board event goes live on December 27. Expect it to last for a total of three days.

This week’s issue of Famitsu has the early word on Metal Max Xeno: Reborn’s release date. The game is slated for March 26, 2020 in Japan, the magazine confirms.

More information about Metal Max Xeno: Reborn is expected from Famitsu. We’ll report back with any additional details that surface.
