Bandai Namco

There’s a pretty notable Bandai Namco sale happening on Nintendo Switch via the eShop, which features the lowest prices ever for Tales of Xillia Remastered and more. Around two dozen games have been discounted.

The full lineup is as follows:

Tales of Berseria Remastered Laphicet

Bandai Namco has come out with another character trailer for Tales of Berseria Remastered, this time for Laphicet.

Laphicet is a young part who’s a part of the Malakhim, a non-human race. Bandai Namco notes that the character has always lived without a name and exists “solely as a tool for wielding artes.”

Kirby Air Riders best City Trial characters

For those playing Kirby Air Riders, we’re going over the best characters in the game’s City Trial.

In many ways, Kirby Air Riders is a racing game. But in just as many ways, it kind of isn’t – City Trial is arguably its premier game mode, and it’s more about combat and collecting than it is racing. If you’ve never played this mode before, you’re tasked with exploring Skyah, a City Trial-unique location, and gathering stat boosts to power up for the final battle. The final battle in question is different each game, and you can pick from a selection of four based on your currently equipped machine and its upgrades. As is the case with all competitive games, some characters are better than others. And as you might expect, the best rider for City Trial may just be a certain masked knight.

Tales of Berseria Remastered frame rate resolution

Tales of Berseria Remastered is almost here on Nintendo Switch, and for those curious about the technical side of the game, Bandai Namco has shared details about the frame rate and resolution.

For frame rate, the RPG targets 30 FPS. However, Bandai Namco indicates that this could temporarily change depending on what’s happening on screen. In case you’re curious, Tales of Berseria Remastered targets 60 FPS on PS5 and Xbox Series.

Tales of Berseria Remastered Velvet Crowe

With Tales of Berseria Remastered approaching its launch, Bandai Namco is spotlighting Velvet Crowe with a character trailer.

Velvet is the game’s central protagonist. Following an incident that took place three years ago, she becomes consumed by anger and malice, changing her sweet, family-oriented personality.

Bandai Namco is among the lineup of publishers hosting a holiday sale on the Nintendo eShop, and it includes new low prices for games like Baten Kaitos 1 & 2 HD Remaster, Little Nightmares 3, Patapon 1 + 2 Replay, and more. Discounts are available for both Nintendo Switch 2 and Switch.

The full rundown is as follows:

Patapon 1 + 2 Replay update Boss Rush Challenge

Patapon 1 + 2 Replay has been out for a few months, but the game has just added a brand new Boss Rush Challenge mode. This comes as part of a newly-released update.

Here’s the full rundown of how it works:

One Piece Pirate Warriors 4 Lucci CP0, Enel, King, Z DLC

August 9: Just a few moments ago, Bandai Namco unveiled the latest DLC characters for One Piece: Pirate Warriors 4, with Lucci CP0, Enel, King, and Z. News dropped as part of One Piece Day festivities.

One Piece: Pirate Warriors 4 has been supported pretty well since its original launch in 2020. However, this is actually the first new DLC drop since March 2024. Bandai Namco previously held a character poll to choose characters for the next wave of DLC.

According to director Masahiro Sakurai, the team behind Kirby Air Riders will be disbanding soon.

At this point there largely isn’t a reason to keep everyone together. Development is finished, and as previously announced, the game isn’t getting DLC. However, we’re likely to get one more balance patch.

Kirby Air Riders 1.2.0 update

A big version 1.2.0 update has just been released for Kirby Air Riders.

A bunch of different elements are included in the update. Highlights include the ability to use amiibo in paddocks and play courses solo during matchmaking. Tons of balance adjustments and bug fixes are also in.

The full rundown is as follows:
