Shadow Labyrinth release date

Bandai Namco just shared the release date for Shadow Labyrinth. The game launches on July 18, 2025.

Shadow Labyrinth was originally revealed at The Game Awards 2024 in December. Today’s update gives a look at never-before-seen gameplay including the first glimpse of a powerful mode players unlock as they progress through the game, where they take on the form of a massive robotic mech called Gaia. This inflicts heavy damage to enemies and levels the playing field for battles with some of the game’s most epically huge bosses. The game also features the quick and agile Swordsman No.8 melee combat and Mini Puck mode that lets players ride rails and explore small areas in classic Pac-Man style.

There’s more to come for Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2, and this week, it was revealed that Dragon Ball Daima is joining the game with Super Saiyan 3 Vegeta joining the roster.

Super Saiyan 3 Vegeta will appear just as he did in the anime. There’s another character to come, though the identity has not yet been revealed. We also know that costumes / accessories, equippable skills, Super Soul, and more are a part of the DLC.

Tales of Graces f Remastered review

System: Switch
Release date: January 17, 2025
Developer: Bandai Namco
Publisher: Bandai Namco


As a long-time fan of the Tales series I was excited when Bandai Namco announced the Tales of Series 30th Anniversary Remastered Project, which promised to bring the older titles to modern systems and, hopefully, finally make it a more accessible series. As the games have hopped between platforms over the years, and either haven’t been released outside of North America or in some cases been localized at all, there are still several I haven’t had the opportunity to play. Tales of Graces was originally released on the Wii, but didn’t make its way to western audiences until the PS3 re-release, Tales of Graces f, which added a new epilogue chapter to the story and various quality-of-life improvements. Tales of Graces f Remastered brings this version to the Nintendo Switch and, barring a single glaring flaw, does so with (dare I say it) style and grace.

Freedom Wars Remastered review

System: Switch
Release date: January 10, 2025
Developer: Dimps
Publisher: Bandai Namco


Despite the overwhelming and uncontested success of the Nintendo 3DS, I have always felt as though Sony gave up on the PlayStation Vita far too soon, and Freedom Wars is a fine illustration of this point. Originally released in 2014, the game went on to become one of the most successful first-party published titles for the system in Japan and easily filled the void left by the departure of Capcom’s Monster Hunter franchise to Nintendo systems. With its post-apocalyptic dystopian setting, more detailed narrative, and varied mission structure that went beyond simply hunting large single targets over and over again, it felt like the next step for hunting-style action RPGs, limited only by its chosen platform. Playing through the game again over a decade later, Freedom Wars Remastered holds up surprisingly well.

Malik Tales of Graces f Remastered

The latest character trailer for Tales of Graces f Remastered was posted today, and the latest video highlights Malik.

Malik, previous a revolutionary leader in Fendel, is Asbel’s instructor at Barona’s Knight Academy. According to Bandai Namco, he “sees a lot of himself in Asbel.”
