Last year, FuRyu released Beyblade Burst on 3DS in Japan. The company is now gearing up for another release, Beyblade Burst God.
Specifics about Beyblade Burst God haven’t been shared, but it looks to be a souped-up version of what shipped in 2016. We do know that it’s due out on November 23 for 6,458 yen.
IGN has more footage available showing the upcoming Switch RPG Lost Sphear. Take a look at the latest video below.
– Game has a lush green stage
– Crescendoing music as you grab EXTRA, MEGA, and ULTRA boomboxs
– Autorun action like the previous games
– “B” button to jump
– “Y” button for kicks
– Various combinations of the D-Pad directions result in slides, ducks and trampoline jumps
– As you approach oncoming obstacles you’ll make snap judgements about what to do
– You can jump over a platform or slide under it, kick open a door or drop down to the path below, hit the right inputs on the beat
– One stage has a little rocket ship
– CommanderVideo hops onto it and rides it through the air
– Control his flight using the left stick
– Arc upwards and downwards to grab gold bars before hopping off again at the landing pad
– Game has checkpoints
– Branching paths are another new addition
– Paths have been distinguished vertically
– Jump up to get to a harder section, run straight to stay on the easier level, or the other way around
– Alternate routes wander off into the background
– Tap the “L” button to follow them
– New collectable: blue gems
– The gold bars you find along the path will contribute to your score
– The gems are only collectable once since they’ll disappear from the level after the first time you pick them up
– Use these gems to buy new costumes and accessories in an in-game shop
– One level is a spooky nighttime run over rolling sea waves
– Double jump included
– One level in “Machine World” starts on a lonely, floating platform suspended high over a factory floor
– The stage is built around the conceit of assembling itself as it goes, with platforms, obstacles, switches and springboards swinging in underneath Commander Video’s flying feet at nearly the last second
– Death counter pops up here in-between attempts
– Team is trying to add a lot of replay value
– Wants to give the feeling of a true adventure rather than a series of self-contained stages
– Hero Quests: side-quests which stop Commander Video in his tracks long enough to hear out the concerns of a friendly NPC, and then send you on a mission to help
– Redesigned retro stages feature tricky puzzle platforming in lieu of the usual auto-running
If you pick up the physical copy of LEGO Worlds when it drops on Switch this fall, you’ll receive access to some DLC, including the Classic Space pack. View some footage below.

Nintendo has just released a video of the ARMS theme song performed by Ribbon Girl’s voice actress, Momoka Kawasaki. Check it out:
Doug Bowser, Nintendo of America’s Senior Vice President of Sales & Marketing, gave TechCrunch an interview at E3. Below are a couple of his key statements:
On the NES Classic:
“We’ve learned a lot from the NES Classic. We’ve learned there’s a real passion for retro gaming. The NES Classic was originally intended to be a holiday item and obviously there was high demand. So we doubled down and continued to produce it as we went into the next quarter. But we decided we wanted to focus on other areas. So we’re not producing any more at this point. But we’ve learned a lot.”
ARMS is out today, and Nintendo has put together an accolades trailer highlighting some of the praise critics had for the game. Give it a watch:
