We know that Fire Emblem Heroes is getting a “Special Heroes” summoning event starting on May 21st. This summoning focus will last for a whole month, which usually means that it will feature Heroes in special themed outfits. Last year around this time, we got the Bridal Blessings summoning focus with female characters in wedding-themed outfits. It seems like we will get a similar theme this year, judging by the teaser image showing silhouettes of two of the characters that’ll be available through the focus.
For every Splatfest in Splatoon 2, Nintendo releases a special piece of artwork featuring Pearl, Marina and the theme of the Splatfest. You can now check out the artwork for the upcoming Sanrio characters tournament-style Splatfest in Japan with Hello Kitty, Cinnamoroll, My Melody and Pompompurin.

Japanese Switch fans will in fact be treated to a retail release. The e-Capcom store shows a bunch of different options, featuring a soundtrack CD and more.

Nintendo has published the eighth new Hint Art for Super Mario Odyssey, which we have above. Players can earn a little reward by solving the puzzle.
Just like previous Hint Arts that have been provided online, you won’t receive any new Power Moons for figuring out the Hint Art. It’s more of a way to return to the game in a fun little way.
The next character trailer has come in for Blade Strangers. Below, we have the video for Helen – an entirely new character made for the fighter.
HELEN Descends From the Heavens!
This all-new original character is a goddess inspired by Greek mythology!
