Type-moon released a brand new trailer of its upcoming fighting game Melty Blood: Type Lumina, which will soon launch both in Japan and in the west.

The trailer focuses on showing a match between Arcueid Brunestud and Akiha Tohno. This time around, unlike the previous trailer, Arcueid is the one winning this catfight.

You can check it out below.

Here’s how Type-Moon describes Akiha:

“After the death of her father, she inherits the role of leader of the Tohno family, a distinguished house in Souya.
One year younger than her brother Shiki, she arranged for his return from the Arima family.
Her flawless etiquette and bearing perfectly epitomize the daughter of a noble house.
She is strict even on herself, rejecting such things as modern-day amusements and frivolity.
Because of her prideful and strong-willed nature, many find her difficult to approach.
Sensing a mysterious presence in her town, and determined

Atlus has released another trailer showing off the gameplay of one of the over 200+ demons that will be featured in its upcoming JRPG Shin Megami Tensei V.

The demon showcased today is Loa, a demon that has deep roots in the history of the franchise.

You can watch the trailer below. Incidentally, this is number 90, and we aren’t even halfway through. This may be the reason why Atlus may have decided to accelerate things and started publishing two trailers a day. I’m fairly sure this doesn’t have many precedents in the history of games.

You can also enjoy the rest of the long-running series of trailers dedicated to demons including Jack Frost, Fionn mac Cumhaill, Amanozako, Angel, Daimon, Mermaid, Mandrake, Arioch, Kumbhanda, Feng Huang, Inugami, Turdak, Fafnir, Mothman, Lilim, Futsunushi, Sraosha, Genbu, Uriel, Orobas, Girimehkala, Horus, Rangda, Arahabaki, Moloch, Preta, Ongyo-Ki, Throne, Silky, Kurama Tengu, Fuu-Ki, Slime, Onmoraki, … Read the rest

Star Citizen developer Cloud Imperium Games released a video about its space simulator, focusing on upcoming features.

With alpha 3.15 which will come soon, brand new mechanics for injuries, healing, and death will be introduced in the game.

This will change rather radically how players will have to think about keeping safe and fixing things when they don’t manage to do so.

You can check the video out below.

In other Star Citizen news, the crowdfunding total has passed $384 million and it’s currently sitting on $384,287,090.

The number of registered accounts has recently passed 3.2 million, and it’s at 3,242,500 at the moment of this writing.

As usual, you should keep in mind that it’s known that not all of them are paying players. The number includes free accounts created for a variety of reasons, including Free Fly events like the one that recently ended.

Type-moon released a brand new trailer of its upcoming fighting game Melty Blood: Type Lumina, which will soon launch both in Japan and in the west.

The trailer focuses on showing a match between Akiha Tohno VS Arcueid Brunestud, with the former beating up the latter. We’re likely gonna see a rematch soon, of course.

You can check it out below.

Here’s how Type-Moon describes Akiha:

Microsoft Flight Simulator third-party developer FlyByWire hosted its periodic livestream providing news about its A32NX Airbus A320 mod and its Airbus A380.

We hear that the A32NX mod has been downloaded over 2 million times not counting updates.

We also get a list of the team’s long-term goals including failures, maintenance, and variants.

The aircraft is getting an update to weights and balances to be more accurate and flexible. You can see the difference below.

An update to audio is incoming with crew sounds for various airlines and dynamic system sounds, thanks to which systems like the electric or hydraulic ones will sound differently depending on the situation and load.

A custom Bleed System will be added regulating air flows and pressurization within the aircraft. The aim is to simulate as many of the components of the system as possible, including valves and heat exchangers. This will also enable the … Read the rest

Today Microsoft announced that the Top Gun: Maverick expansion for Microsoft Flight Simulator has been delayed.

The announcement is sad but not unexpected, considering that the movie starring Tom Cruise itself has been delayed again to May 27, 2022.

The plan has always been to release the expansion at the same time (so much that the developers can’t even talk about it independently from the movie’s marketing), so the delay of the movie inevitably means that the expansion had to be pushed back as well.

At the moment, we don’t know much about what the expansion will include, even if the developers teased the possible involvement of two aircraft.

Recently, we published our massive interview with head of Microsoft Flight Simulator Jorg Neumann, focusing on the Xbox version and short and long-term plans for the sim (on both platforms).

Kadokawa Games revealed another image, a video, and details about its upcoming strategy simulation JRPG Relayer.

This time around we meet the Chief Engineer, who is described as a key figure in the United Earth Government’s countermeasures against the Relayer threat.

He has a “mad scientist” side and conducts inhumane experiments in order to pursue Secretary Greson‘s idea of “defending Earth exclusively with the power of humanity.” He is voiced by Yoshihisa Hosokawa, whom you can see in the video as he introduces himself.

You can check out all the assets below.

Relayer will be released simultaneously worldwide for PS4 and PS5 in 2021. A few weeks ago, we published an extensive interview with producer and director Yoshimi Yasuda.
