Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 Caulifla (Super Saiyan 2)

Last month, Caulifla (Super Saiyan 2) was announced for Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2. Bandai Namco has now come out with a first look at the character in action as part of a new trailer today.

Those using Caulifla (Super Saiyan 2) can hold down the fire button to boost the power of her Super Attack, Crush Canon. Bandai Namco says you can “then blast your foes with a Kikouha after firing off two savage Kidan using her Ultimate Attack, Crush Stream”.

Disney Magical World 2 Enchanted Edition release date

Bandai Namco has set a release date for Disney Magical World 2: Enchanted Edition – a new game for Switch that’s based on the 3DS title that came out a few years ago. In both North America and Europe, the game will launch on December 3. It was previously confirmed for this holiday.

Disney Magical World 2: Enchanted Edition, an immersive life simulation game, lets players explore six unique worlds and hang our with Disney characters. In each world, players will find various activities and thematic mini-games. Interior decorating and managing a café are among the different gameplay features.

Super Robot Wars 30 is getting a DLC pack with exclusive crossover content. This includes content from the SEGA franchise Sakura Wars, and it is due out in DLC Pack #1 in November. Here’s a list of what will be included in that pack (translation courtesy of Gematsu): 

  • Mobile Suit Gundam: Char’s Counterattack – Beltorchika’s Children
  • Sakura Wars series
  • Super Electromagnetic Machine Voltes V
  • Super Robot Wars OG series

DLC Pack #1 is just the beginning of extra content heading to Super Robot Wars 30 though- there is also a Season Pass that will add special missions to the game. Additionally, players with the Season Pass will gain exclusive first access to another content pack that planned for the future. Here’s the specifics of what the Season Pass includes:

pac-man 99 Tower of Babel

This week, Tower of Babel was added to Pac-Man 99 as the game’s latest theme, and it’s based on the 1986 title. It can be downloaded now by all players worldwide under the name “Namco Classic 6”.

About a month ago, a Tank Battalion was made available in Pac-Man 99. Prior to that was Hopping Mappy and Splatterhouse: Wanpaku Graffiti. Other available themes include Baraduke, Bravoman, Cosmo Gang the Video, Dig Dug, Dragon Buster, Galaga, Namco Classics 1-5, New Rally-X, Rolling Thunder, The Genji and the Heike Clans, The Legend of “Valkyrie”, The Return of Ishtar, The Tower of Druaga, Wonder Momo, Xevious, and Yokai Dochuki.

Disney Magical World 2 Enchanted Edition pre-orders

The official boxart for Disney Magical World 2: Enchanted Edition has been revealed, and pre-orders are starting to go live.

Bandai Namco announced the game during a Nintendo Direct last month. It’s an updated version of the 3DS title that came to 3DS in 2015 in Japan and 2016 in the west.

Bandai Namco today revealed PUI PUI Molcar Let’s! Molcar Party!, a party game for Switch based on the Japanese stop-motion short anime series. A release is planned for December 16 in Japan and Asia. English support has been confirmed for the Asian release.

Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot + A New Power Awakens Set Switch review

System: Switch
Release date: September 24, 2021
Developer: CyberConnect2
Publisher: Bandai Namco


Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot again has Goku and co.’s adventures and sagas represented, but this time in a much different format that hasn’t felt this fresh and exciting in a long while. Having put almost 100 hours when it initially released at the beginning of 2020, the semi open-world take felt like a modern day Legacy of Goku mixed with the design philosophy of One Piece: World Seeker, but done so in a way that still retained the essence of the IP and left no shortage of fights for the player to enjoy and reach higher power levels with. The Switch version undoubtedly sees a few technical downgrades compared to other platforms, and it was a bit jarring at first, but after having settled with the game for quite some time now, it’s arguably Bandai Namco’s most competent Dragon Ball port yet, making for a really great DBZ experience that can now be played at home or on the go.

Super Robot Wars 30

Super Robot Wars 30 was announced in a Japanese Nintendo Direct earlier this year. Very soon after the reveal, Bandai Namco followed up by confirming plans to release the game in Asia. It’s especially noteworthy since that region will have English support.

Play-Asia has now opened pre-orders for the Asian version of Super Robot Wars 30. You can reserve it here.

Since Switch is region free, you can play through the game without any issues. Bandai Namco hasn’t any plans to bring Super Robot Wars 30 to the west on Switch, so the Asian version will probably be your only way to play in English on the system.

3D platformer The Addams Family: Mansion Mayhem arrives on Switch today, and alongside the game, Bandai Namco have shared a new launch trailer. Check it out below the break.
