According to the latest issue of V-Jump, Android 17 is joining Dragon Ball FighterZ. The Japanese magazine reveals the character as a new fighter.

Android 17 will feature the following special moves:

Dark Souls: Remastered will finally hold its network test on Switch this week, Bandai Namco and FromSoftware have revealed.

Here’s the full rundown of times:

Tales of Vesperia: Definitive Edition

Update: All’s well that ends well. Bandai Namco US has confirmed that there will be no extra download, so both North America and Europe are safe.



Original: Earlier today, the Tales of Vesperia: Definitive Edition Anniversary Bundle was revealed. Yet there’s one thing in particular that is causing Switch fans to worry a bit.

On the Switch boxart featured in the Anniversary Bundle beauty shot, there’s a banner that looks very similar to warnings we see about an additional required download:

Bandai Namco has revealed a special “Anniversary Bundle” for Tales of Vesperia: Definitive Edition. The package includes the game, three acrylics keychains for Yuri, Patty, and Flynn, a Repede metal case, art book, and exclusive diorama display case stage.

The new bundle is up for pre-order exclusively on Bandai Namco’s website here for $99.99.

Bandai Namco is offering a neat pre-order bonus with pre-orders of Dragon Ball FighterZ on Switch. By reserving the game, you’ll receive access to Dragon Ball Z: Super Butoden, which originally appeared on Super Famicom.

There is just one thing you should be aware of. While in the past some pre-order bonuses have been offered to fans at a later date for purchase, it sounds like this won’t be happening with Super Butoden.

Tales of Vesperia: Definitive Edition

This week’s issue of Famitsu has one of the first Tales of Vesperia: Definitive Edition developer interviews. Producer Yosuke Tomizawa and Yoshito Higuchi, chief director of the original game, discussed the RPG.

The chat has some interesting discussion about how Tales of Vesperia: Definitive Edition came to be and the remaster itself. There’s also some talk about the possibility of other remasters/remakes and the next entry in the franchise.

Taiko no Tatsujin: Drum 'n' Fun bundle

Bandai Namco has given a first look at the European Taiko no Tatsujin: Drum ‘n’ Fun bundle. It’ll include the game, Taiko Drum Set, and bundle box.

Story

“A boy, attending camp together with friends, is invited on an unexpected adventure!”

Takuma Momotsuka is a soon-to-be second-year middle school student who attends a historical studies extracurricular activities camp where students from several schools group up during spring break. On the second day of camp, Takuma, his friend Minoru Hinata, and Aoi Shibuya, a one year-older upperclassman from a different school, visit a shrine where a festival surrounding the local “Beast Gods” will be held.

Takuma, who joined up with his camp friends and kids from his hometown on the way there, encounters a mysterious monster named Koromon while exploring the shrine. Immediately following, they hear a scream from nearby and run in that direction to find more of their friends attacked by different monsters.

Upon realizing he has to save everyone, Koromon evolves into Agumon to fight the monsters. With the help of Agumon, Takuma managed to repel the monsters, but he soon realized that the surrounding area was covered in fog and he had gotten lost in an unknown world…
