Fire Emblem Fates, the new entry of the Fire Emblem series released in Japan as Fire Emblem If last month, has started received DLC packs this month. A few weeks ago the game’s third story scenario, called Invisibile Kingdom, has been released on the eShop in Japan and last week new DLC maps have been revealed. The first DLC map for the game, released for free last week, is especially interesting for fans of Fire Emblem Awakening, as it includes characters from the previous entry of the series.

If you’re among one of those lucky guys that has a Japanese copy of the game but cannot fully understand Japanese, you will be happy to know that a new English story summary for this DLC map has been made available by Kantopia. The summary obviously includes spoilers so avoid reading it in full if you want the DLC map to be a complete surprise for you when the game launched in North America and Europe next year. You can read more about it by going here.

Last week a new batch of Fire Emblem Fates screenshots has been made available online, showcasing the already mentioned extra DLC maps. Among them will also be maps that will help players farm experience points and gold, just like some of the DLC maps released for Fire Emblem Awakening. We have no news on the Western release of these maps for obvious reasons but we will surely learn more about the matter as Fire Emblem Fates approaches its final Western release date.

Fire Emblem Fates is going to be released sometime next year in North America and Europe exclusively on Nintendo 3DS as two different versions, which include a different story path with different enemies, maps, characters and more. More on the Western version of the game will surely be coming soon so stay tuned for all the latest news on the new entry of the successful Fire Emblem series.

While Sony may not classify Gran Turismo 7 as a live-service game, the team at Polyphony Digital certainly approaches it with a similar mindset. The game continues to impress with every new update, and although v1.44 may be smaller compared to previous versions, it still manages to enhance the already extensive content of this simulation racer.

The update, now available worldwide, introduces three new cars: the Audi R8 Coupé V10 Plus ’16, the Lamborghini Urus ’18, and the Toyota GT-One (TS020) ’99. Furthermore, it introduces three fresh events to World Circuits, an extra menu to conquer in the GT Café single-player campaign, and a collection of livery stickers inspired by the upcoming Highspeed Étoile anime, set to debut next week in Japan.

If you’re not already acquainted with Highspeed Étoile, you can watch a trailer right here. “Sony has announced that a collection of 26 stickers, consisting of 8 title logos and 18 main character stickers, will be made available for a limited time,” stated Sony on the PS Blog.

This author has consistently praised the realistic portrayal of tennis in TopSpin 4. After more than a decade, we are thrilled to witness the release of TopSpin 2K25, which expands upon the success of its renowned predecessor. This gameplay video provides a comprehensive overview of the features discussed in our recent preview while also incorporating relevant footage to enhance understanding.

The series’ swing system sets it apart from arcade-style games like Virtua Tennis, as it requires players to charge up their shots in a different way. In order to succeed, timing is crucial, and fortunately, a new meter above your player will assist you in achieving that. Surfaces have their own distinct characteristics, such as clay, where you’ll experience a noticeable amount of sliding.

The game ensures that every player has a distinct set of animations, adding a touch of individuality to each competitor. The courts, found in all Grand Slams, possess a remarkable amount of individuality and charm. It is mentioned in the video that with each in-game season, players can expect a plethora of additional content, such as animation packs. This indicates that there will be plenty to anticipate even after the game’s initial release.
