Update: Bumped to the top. Nintendo has now confirmed the same date for Europe, so the DLC should be out at the same time worldwide.



Koei Tecmo have just released a trailer for the first DLC pack for Hyrule Warriors Legends. The trailer shows off Medli, the new Adventure Mode map, which is the “Master Quest” version of the Great Sea map found in the base game, and several new outfits for both characters and My Fairy. In Japan, the DLC pack is being released next week, on May 19th. A Western release date has not yet been confirmed, though a release on the same date seems likely. We will keep you updated.

This week’s issue of Famitsu once again has a sizable update on Etrian Odyssey V. The magazine goes over character creation, job change, facilities, and Master Skills. We’ve summarized all of the information below.

Character Creation

With this game’s character creation features, first you choose the desired race, then their job and looks. You can customize the hair, eye and skin colors. The ‘jobless’ race illustrations can also be used for the character’s looks.

This week’s issue of Famitsu provides more information on Story of Seasons: Good Friends of Three Villages. We have details about additional characters, events, and facilities.

First up is Ford, one of the groom candidates. He’s a doctor and has a clinic located in Wes Town under the name White Castle. Ford’s part time job has him being a test subject for his medicine experiments that have different effects. He’s involved with child delivery, too.

Several hours ago, Nintendo announced Lime x Black and Pink x White as new colors for the New 3DS XL in Japan. We now have the packaging shots for each – see above.

A special Nintendo Direct will be held for the Japanese 3DS title Culdcept Revolt in just a short while. The presentation should begin at 7:30 AM ET / 4:30 AM PT (an hour from now). You can watch the broadcast as it happens below.

Today’s update on Battle of Elemental REBOOST covers rival characters and Survival Mode.

Regarding the new characters, four of them are the alter egos of the game’s previously announced playable characters. The lineup includes Sils (Celcius’ alter ego), Renzasilt (Fahrenheit’s alter ego), Mal (Mole’s alter ego), and Io (Biot’s alter ego). We’re yet to see the fifth, though it seems to unlock after meeting certain requirements.

We also have the first word on the new Survival Mode. Players win through fights as their favorite character to achieve a high score. The mode features a “Record” screen to view wins and losses, along with key configuration to change the controls to your liking.
