We've updated today's blog post because there was a little misunderstanding regarding the timing of today's extra announcement.

The announcement will be made SHORTLY AFTER the Nintendo Direct, not at the end. Our apologies for the confusion! http://t.co/AnupsHZabf

Platinum Games’ announcement, originally teased through a blog post yesterday, won’t actually be made during today’s The Wonderful 101 Direct. Instead, the news will be shared “shortly after” the presentation. What could Platinum have in store?
XSEED intends to release Senran Kagura Burst in North America this fall. It’s been confirmed that Europe will be getting the game as well, but early next year. The wait may be worth it though as Senran Kagura burst will be available as a physical release as well as downloadable.
Zen United announced plans today to publish Senran Kagura Burst across Europe. MAQL Europe, the European division of Japanese publisher Marvelous AQL, seems to be behind localization, though Zen United will handle distribution, PR and marketing.

Spike Chunsoft has opened an official website for the new Attack on Titan 3DS game. You can find it here. Although the page doesn’t have a whole lot at present, you can scroll down for a changing visual image.
Capcom updated the official Monster Hunter 4 website today with a new look at Goa Magara, the main monster in the game. You can find screenshots and details covering the creature below.
– Breath Attack: powerful attack, explodes on impact
– Attack is more difficult to dodge than your average fireballs from Rathalos or Rathian
– Binding Attack: Uses its powerful arms to grab a Hunter’s entire body
– Players must repeatedly hit buttons to escape or you’ll end up taking huge damage
– Smash Attack: Goa Magara will also use its arms to try smashing Hunters
– Attack is powerful enough to change the landscape
– Dash Attack: Goa Magara will jump and charge towards you without any mercy
– Since it can fly, Goa Magara will also be performing these attacks from above
– Over time, Goa Magara’s perceptive ability increases
– This is indicated by its coloring that slowly turns from blue to purple as it increases
– Once it reaches a peak in its perceptive ability, Goa Magara transforms into its Feral Wyvern mode
