Ninja Gaiden characters Ryu Hayabusa, Ayane, Rachel, and Momiji are all coming to Warriors: Abyss with a brand new update. The next patch drops on July 4, 2025.

All four characters will also be featured with cosmetic DLC. Players will have the opportunity to get their hands on the Master Ninja Formal Costume Set and Master Ninja Legacy Costume Set.

Here’s a Warriors: Abyss trailer showing Ryu Hayabusa, Ayane, Rachel, and Momiji:

Atelier Yumia Tales of Graces f Remastered collaboration DLC

March 12: Heads up for fans of Atelier Yumia – there’s new collaboration costume DLC on the way in which Koei Tecmo and Gust are teaming up with Bandai Namco to bring Tales of Graces f Remastered into the game.

The outfit will be available entirely for free. Koei Tecmo hasn’t confirmed its release date, but the content should be distributed sometime after launch.

The big Nintendo Switch 2 presentation in April announced a ton of new games: Mario Kart World, Donkey Kong Bananza, Kirby Air Riders, plus new trailers for Metroid Prime 4: Beyond and Pokemon Legends: Z-A. Lost in all the hype was Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment, which just about flew under the radar in comparison to the Direct’s big reveals. In a similar vein as Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity, Age of Imprisonment is meant to serve as a direct prequel to Tears of the Kingdom. We don’t really know much about the game otherwise, but we figure it’s a good time to make some story and gameplay predictions before it releases later this year. We’ll be discussing spoilers for Tears of the Kingdom and Age of Calamity, so keep that in mind before you continue.

Hyrule Warriors Age of Imprisonment Switch 1 development

Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment was originally planned as a game for the original Nintendo Switch. Yosuke Hayashi, studio head of AAA Studio (Koei Tecmo), revealed that information in a new interview.

Hayashi said that plans for the project shifted midway through the development. He didn’t say what the turning point was, but ultimately Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment is now a Nintendo Switch 2 game. Hayashi feels that the move only made the game “more fun” and there were improvements to the amount of enemies on screen as well as the frame rate.

Today, Koei Tecmo and Gust unveiled the release date for Atelier Resleriana: The Red Alchemist & the White Guardian. Nintendo Switch owners can play the RPG starting on September 26, 2025.

Atelier Resleriana was originally announced last September. Last we heard, it was on track to launch sometime this year – now we know when.

Koei Tecmo has released a launch trailer for Nobunaga’s Ambition: Awakening Complete Edition. Now on Nintendo Switch 2, it includes all downloadable content except collaboration DLCs, features improved 3D rendering quality, and added mouse support. That’s along with six new scenarios and a large-scale battle mode called “Decisive Battles”.

Here’s some additional information about the game:

Atelier Yumia 1.2.0 update

Atelier Yumia: The Alchemist of Memories & the Envisioned Land just received a new version 1.2.0 update, which is highlighted by a new “Charisma” difficulty and building expansion.

Charisma is the toughest challenge for players yet. When playing in that mode, enemy stats will be increased and supporting allies’ HP will slowly decrease when in combat within the manabound area.

New building materials are now available, including new Feature Modules such as the “Energy Sphere”, which allows players to restore their energy and the “Projector” that allows players to create shadows of previously defeated monsters. There’s also a new architectural style and matching furniture based on Ryza’s hometown, Kurken Island, from Atelier Ryza.

The full patch notes are as follows:

Koei Tecmo has shared a new video today showcasing fresh gameplay details for Nobunaga’s Ambition: Awakening Complete Edition on Nintendo Switch 2.

Originally released in 2023, Awakening CE is set to launch alongside the Switch 2 on June 5. In addition to mouse functionality, the updated version will include new content to the Nintendo Switch 2 release.
