It was revealed earlier today that Persona 5 Scramble: The Phantom Strikers is heading west as Persona 5 Strikers in February. Atlus didn’t intend for that news to be shared so early, but the cat is out of the bag in any case. There’s been speculation that the reveal was planned for The Game Awards 2020 next week.
Despite the leak, Atlus isn’t making an official announcement just yet. The company is instead teasing news for the game that will be shared on December 8. We’ve already seen the trailer and know the release date, so we’re not expecting any bombshells. Still, that should be when official commutation begins.

When players go through Zelda: Breath of the Wild, they mostly see a destroyed Hyrule. However, with the recent release of Age of Calamity, fans are able to see what the world looked like in its original state 100 years ago. One modder is now combining the two experiences.
YouTuber banan039 has posted a couple of videos showing his work in progress of the modding project. One has structures from Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity sprinkled throughout the overworld while the other is specifically showing off a restored Hyrule Castle.

PAX East 2021 will be held between June 3 and June 6 at the Boston Convention and Exhibition Center. PAX West 2021 will follow between September 3 and September 6 at the Washington State Convention Center.
