Bandai Namco is continuing its trend of bringing some of its older titles to Switch. Following Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 and One Piece: Unlimited World Red Deluxe Edition, One Piece: Pirate Warriors 3 Deluxe Edition has been announced for the console.

One Piece: Pirate Warriors 3 Deluxe Edition, which originally came out in 2015, mashes Koei Tecmo’s Warriors series with the famous manga IP. The new Switch version will come with 42 pieces of DLC. This includes challenge episodes and costumes. Online co-op from the PlayStation versions is missing, but local two-player co-op is supported with two sets of Joy-Con or Pro Controllers.

Leading up to the launch of Fire Emblem Warriors, Nintendo Dream published monthly interviews with the development team. In its most recent issue, the Japanese magazine had its biggest discussion yet. Producer Yosuke Hayashi and director Hiroya Usuda were brought back once again in addition to artist Yuta Matsunaga to talk about Fire Emblem Warriors, with the two being interviewed a few weeks before release (and just prior to the Tokyo Game Show).

Hayashi and Usuda had a ton to say about all aspects of Fire Emblem Warriors. There was more talk about certain characters in the game and the handling of their reveals (including why Azura wasn’t on the initial roster), some of the troubles encountered with designs, approach to the story (light spoilers here), gameplay systems, and different modes.
