SHINOBI: Art of Vengeance Slashes onto Switch 2 on 24 September

Leave a comment

Joe Musashi is coming to Switch 2 — SEGA and developer Lizardcube have confirmed that SHINOBI: Art of Vengeance will launch on Nintendo Switch 2 on 24 September 2026, with pre-orders now live on the Nintendo eShop and a free demo available to download today.

What Is SHINOBI: Art of Vengeance?

If you missed the August 2025 launch on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, and PC, here is the quick rundown. SHINOBI: Art of Vengeance is a hand-drawn 2D action platformer developed by Lizardcube — the same studio that revived Wonder Boy: The Dragon’s Trap and co-developed Streets of Rage 4. It brings back series protagonist Joe Musashi, who returns home to find his village burned and his clan turned to stone, setting off a vengeance quest across over a dozen visually distinct stages.

Combat gives you Joe’s katana, shuriken, Ninjutsu arts, and Ninpo abilities, with Amulets to upgrade your build as you progress. The game was very well received on its original platforms, praised for its tight controls and gorgeous hand-drawn visuals.

Switch 2 Version: What’s Different?

The Nintendo Switch 2 version arrives with an updated resolution, making the hand-drawn art look even sharper on the new hardware. Otherwise the core experience is the same acclaimed game — which is exactly what Switch 2 owners who held off will want to hear.

A free demo is already live on the Nintendo eShop, so you can try it before committing. Save data from the demo carries over to the full game.

The SEGA Villains Stage: Majima, Eggman, and Death Adder

The standout extra is the SEGA Villains Stage DLC, which pits Joe Musashi against three of SEGA’s most iconic antagonists across five additional stages with six new music tracks and extra Ninpo abilities:

  • Goro Majima (Like a Dragon / Yakuza series)
  • Dr. Eggman (Sonic the Hedgehog)
  • Death Adder (Golden Axe)

It is a genuinely fun concept — a ninja master taking on SEGA’s villain roster — and adds meaningful replay value beyond the main campaign.

Editions and Pre-Order Details

Two editions are available for Switch 2:

  • Standard Edition — USD $29.99, digital on the Nintendo eShop
  • Deluxe Edition (physical game-key card) — includes the base game, SEGA Villains Stage DLC, translucent character cards, a physical art book, the Ghost Outfit and Medic Lite Amulet in-game items, a digital art book and soundtrack, and 2,000 in-game gold

Singapore eShop pricing will follow regional rates. Pre-orders are open now via the Nintendo eShop — search SHINOBI: Art of Vengeance on your Switch 2. Physical Deluxe Edition orders are available through select retailers.

Last Words

Singapore Switch 2 owners now have another must-check title pencilled in for September. SHINOBI: Art of Vengeance sat quietly at the top of many 2D-action best-of lists in 2025, and the Switch 2 port brings it to SEGA fans who were waiting for the right platform. Download the free demo from the eShop today and see for yourself — 24 September is not far off. Check out our other game news for more Switch 2 updates.

DOA6 Last Round Launches Thursday — Free Core Fighters on PS5, Xbox, and PC

Leave a comment

After more than seven years, Dead or Alive 6 is back — updated, optimised for current-gen hardware, and arriving this week. DEAD OR ALIVE 6 Last Round launches on Thursday, 25 June 2026, on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam. KOEI TECMO and Team Ninja confirmed the release at State of Play earlier this year, and the countdown is now down to days.

DEAD OR ALIVE 6 Last Round – Announcement Trailer — via KOEI TECMO AMERICA on YouTube

What DEAD OR ALIVE 6 Last Round Brings

This is the definitive edition of the 2019 original, which sold over 900,000 copies and accumulated more than 8 million free-to-play downloads. Last Round lifts the experience to current-gen hardware and adds several worthwhile features:

  • Photo Mode — reposition characters, adjust poses, and capture your favourite fighters from any angle
  • Full roster included — all 24 original characters plus five DLC fighters: Nyotengu, Phase 4, Momiji, Rachel, and Tamaki (29 fighters total)
  • DLC carry-over — costumes, premium tickets, and save data from the original DOA6 transfer into Last Round

Core Fighters: Free to Play from Day One

Not ready to commit at full price? DEAD OR ALIVE 6 Last Round Core Fighters launches simultaneously as a free-to-play edition. You get four playable characters at launch — Kasumi, Marie Rose, Honoka, and NiCO — plus access to Photo Mode and the online modes DOA Quest and DOA Central. Story Mode requires a separate DLC purchase, but for anyone wanting to try the game without spending anything, Core Fighters is a genuine zero-cost entry point.

A New Dead or Alive Is Coming

The original announcement also confirmed that the next new entry in the DEAD OR ALIVE franchise is already in development at Team Ninja. No platform, release window, or title has been shared — but for a series dormant since 2019, the confirmation matters.

Singapore Availability and Pricing

DEAD OR ALIVE 6 Last Round launches globally on Thursday, 25 June 2026. SGD pricing on the PlayStation Store and Steam is to be confirmed — check both storefronts ahead of launch day. Core Fighters will be available to download for free on all three platforms from day one.

For more upcoming fighting-game and PS5 news, head to our Game News section.

Last words

DEAD OR ALIVE 6 remains one of the most approachable 3D fighters out there, and Last Round is the natural reason to revisit it on the hardware most Singapore players are actually on in 2026. The free Core Fighters edition means there is no cost to trying it — and knowing a brand-new DOA is in development makes Thursday feel like the start of something rather than just a remaster. Keep an eye on the PS Store and Steam for local pricing.

Pokémon GO Community Day: Catch Frigibax This Saturday, 20 June

Leave a comment

Pokémon GO’s June 2026 Community Day is right around the corner — and it stars one of Scarlet and Violet’s most powerful pseudo-legendaries. Frigibax, the Dragon/Ice-type Ice Fin Pokémon, takes over the map this Saturday, 20 June 2026, from 2:00 to 5:00 pm local time. If you’re in Singapore, that’s a perfect weekend afternoon slot.

Frigibax will be featured during June Community Day in Pokémon GO! — via Pokémon GO on YouTube

Frigibax Community Day Bonuses

Niantic has stacked this Community Day with some of the best bonuses of the year:

  • 3× Stardust on every catch — excellent for powering up those high-IV finds or trading duplicates
  • 2× Candy per catch, with a boosted 2× Candy XL chance for trainers at Level 31+
  • Extended 3-hour Incense and 1-hour Lure Modules for the event window
  • One additional Special Trade (up to 2 daily), plus 50% reduced Stardust cost on trades until 9:00 pm

The Exclusive Move: Glaive Rush on Baxcalibur

The main draw this Community Day: evolve Arctibax (Frigibax’s first evolution) into Baxcalibur during the event — or up to four hours after it ends, until 9:00 pm local time — to receive the Community Day exclusive Charged Attack Glaive Rush.

This is the Pokémon GO debut of Glaive Rush, a Dragon-type move with 90 power in Trainer Battles (and a one-stage Defense drop on the opponent) and 105 power in Gyms and Raids. Baxcalibur with Glaive Rush shapes up as a strong Master League pick — and this is the first Dragon/Ice-type to headline a Community Day in over 100 events.

Shiny Frigibax and Special Research

Shiny Frigibax makes its wild debut today. The colour difference is noticeable — worth hitting as many spawn clusters as possible with a Mossy Lure.

A Community Day–exclusive Special Research story is on sale for USD 1.99 (or the equivalent in your local currency). Rewards include three special-background Frigibax encounters, a Premium Battle Pass, and a Rare Candy XL. Tickets can be gifted to Great Friends or higher.

August 2026 Community Day Voting Returns

Niantic also confirmed that Community Day Voting is back for August 2026 (event date: Sunday, 16 August). Four candidates are up: Nickit, Yamper, Fidough, and Tadbulb. The vote happens via the official Pokémon GO YouTube channel — watch for the announcement.

Last words

With 3× Stardust, a powerful new Charged Attack, and shiny Frigibax appearing in the wild for the first time, this is one of the stronger Community Days of 2026. Singapore trainers: head out around 2pm, pop an Incense, and give yourself the full four-hour evolve window after the event ends.

EA Sports UFC 6 Is Out Now — SGD94.90 on PS5 and Xbox

Leave a comment

EA Sports UFC 6 is out today on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S — and with a Metacritic score of 84 and 91 percent of critics recommending it, this is shaping up to be the strongest entry in the franchise. Singapore players can grab the Standard Edition from the PlayStation Store right now for SGD94.90.

UFC 6 Official Reveal Trailer — via EA SPORTS UFC on YouTube

What Makes EA Sports UFC 6 Different

The headline addition is Flow State — a system that gives 30+ fighters a unique three-layer perk setup built around their real-world fighting style. Play as Alex Pereira and you are rewarded for loading up heavy left hooks and kicks; play as Max Holloway and the game nudges you towards relentless volume striking and forward pressure. Build your Flow meter and you unlock finishing combos and strategic advantages tuned to each fighter’s identity.

EA Vancouver also introduces Markerless Capture technology for the first time in the series — capturing authentic fighter movement without a traditional motion-capture suit — alongside the new Sapien Technology for striking contact. The result is hits that land with noticeably more weight than UFC 5. Frostbite physics make their franchise debut as well, making knockdowns and ragdoll reactions feel genuinely unpredictable in a way that mirrors real bouts.

Lead Producer Nate McDonald said in EA’s launch press release that “every element is designed to reflect the individuality of real fighters — our goal is to capture the sport as faithfully as possible.”

New Modes: Hall of Legends and The Legacy

Two new modes add depth beyond the Octagon. Hall of Legends spotlights eight new UFC legends added to the roster — including Randy Couture and Ken Shamrock in their franchise debuts — with biographical content and signature challenges. The Legacy is a narrative expansion within Career Mode that adds 150+ story events, training camp sequences, and sponsorships to flesh out the path from prospect to champion.

What the Reviews Are Saying

UFC 6 holds an 84 on Metacritic and an 82 on OpenCritic heading into standard launch — a series best on both platforms. VPEsports praised the Flow State system and called the visual overhaul on PS5 a generational leap for fighter models and facial animations. Criticisms are familiar: the ground game still lags behind the striking system, and Fighter Pass monetisation is unchanged. The overall consensus is that EA Vancouver did real work this cycle.

Editions and Pricing for Singapore

The Standard Edition is live on the Singapore PlayStation Store for SGD94.90, and includes the base game plus three fighter skins (The Korean Zombie, Miesha Tate, and Leon Edwards). The Ultimate Edition adds the Fighter Pass, Expansion Pass, VIP Pass, and seven days of early access — Ultimate buyers have been playing since 12 June. EA Play members received a 10-hour trial from the same date.

Last Words

MMA draws serious passion in Singapore — UFC events sell out here, and fighting game communities are active on PlayStation. With SGD94.90 for the Standard Edition, UFC 6 lands as one of the more reasonably priced new releases this month, and an 84 Metacritic score suggests the buy is worth it. Alex Pereira on the cover does not hurt.

Persona 4 Revival Gets a Release Date — SGD Prices Now Live

Leave a comment

Atlus has locked in the date: Persona 4 Revival launches on 18 February 2027 on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC — and Singapore pricing is already live on SEGA Asia’s official store.

Persona 4 Revival Release Date and Platforms

The remake lands simultaneously on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC (Steam) on 18 February 2027. A Nintendo Switch 2 version has not been announced for launch. The game is based on the expanded Persona 4 Golden — fan favourite character Marie and the Hollow Forest dungeon are both confirmed to appear in Revival.

Watch the Pre-Order Trailer

Persona 4 Revival — Pre-Order Trailer — via Official ATLUS West on YouTube

What’s New in Persona 4 Revival?

This is not just a visual upgrade — Atlus is rebuilding the combat and interface from the ground up. Here are the biggest changes from Persona 4 Golden:

  • Baton Pass: The fan-favourite system from Persona 5 Royal makes the jump to Inaba, letting you transfer your turn to another party member after scoring a critical hit or targeting an enemy weakness.
  • Prime Time: A new charge gauge fills as you land consecutive hits. When it maxes out, SP costs disappear and the sequence ends in a high-damage finishing strike.
  • Series Finales: Each party member gets a unique, powerful personal finisher — similar in concept to P3 Reload’s Theurgy attacks, but built around Inaba’s cast.
  • Enemy Collision: Status-afflicted enemies can be knocked into each other, spreading the ailment and dealing bonus damage — a satisfying new tactical layer.
  • Dungeon Defence: A guard option in the TV World dungeons can block enemy ambushes, adding a new way to manage exploration risk.
  • Simplified UI: One button per ability replaces the original’s scrolling menus. Fully animated cutscenes replace the static visual-novel-style cinematics throughout.

On the audio side: the entire English voice cast has been replaced for the remake. New vocalist Shiori Sasaki and composer Ryota Kozuka are handling the soundtrack.

P-STUDIO director Kazuhisa Wada said of the launch: “As we take this next step, we are thrilled the launch date is set for Persona 4 Revival and fans get to encounter a fresh and modernized experience as they discover the mysteries hidden in Inaba,” as quoted by RPGSite.

Persona 4 Revival Singapore Pricing and Editions

Is Persona 4 Revival on Xbox Game Pass?

Yes — Revival is available on Xbox Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass from day one. The title also supports Xbox Play Anywhere, so a single Xbox purchase covers both console and Windows PC.

Last words

Persona 4 has always resonated with Singapore players — the small-town mystery, the big questions about identity, the bonds built through one unforgettable in-game year. With SGD pricing confirmed and February 2027 on the calendar, there is time now to decide which edition fits your budget. PS5 and Xbox players can pre-order directly through SEGA Asia; Game Pass subscribers get it on day one at no extra cost. In the meantime, browse our other game news to stay up to speed.

GTA 6 Pre-Orders Open June 25 With New Cover Art Revealed

Leave a comment

Rockstar has confirmed that Grand Theft Auto VI pre-orders open next Thursday, June 25 — and alongside the announcement, the studio unveiled the game’s official cover art and locked in a November 19, 2026 release date for PS5 and Xbox Series X/S. Singapore gamers, mark your calendars: Vice City is almost here.

GTA 6 Pre-Orders Start June 25 — Here’s What to Do Now

Pre-orders go live on June 25 across digital storefronts — the PlayStation Store and Microsoft Store — as well as at select physical retailers including Amazon and GameStop. Rockstar is inviting fans to wishlist Grand Theft Auto VI on the PlayStation Store or Microsoft Store right now to receive a notification the moment pre-orders open.

Official pricing has not been announced. Specific editions and bonuses are also yet to be confirmed, with Rockstar indicating more details will follow closer to the June 25 pre-order launch. Multiple editions are expected, following the studio’s past release approach, likely with digital bonuses, early access options, and physical collector’s content.

The Cover Art: Jason, Lucia, and the Florida Sun

The newly revealed cover art follows Grand Theft Auto’s signature collage format — the same approach used for GTA V back in 2013. Protagonists Jason Duval and Lucia Caminos take centre stage at the top of the artwork, with a cast of Vice City characters, vehicles (a seaplane, a speedboat, sports cars, motorcycles), and Florida wildlife including an alligator filling the surrounding panels. An updated GTA VI logo with a new all-white border appears prominently. It is unmistakably GTA, and unmistakably Vice City.

Vice City Returns: What We Know About GTA 6

Rockstar first revealed Grand Theft Auto VI in December 2023 with a trailer that instantly became one of the most-watched game trailers in history. The game is set in a fictional version of Miami and the surrounding South Florida region — Vice City, the series’ beloved sun-soaked crime playground, returning for the first time in a mainline entry since 2002. The story follows dual protagonists Jason and Lucia navigating the criminal underbelly of the state of Leonida.

Development has been ongoing under intense secrecy for years. With a November 19, 2026 release date locked in and pre-orders just a week away, the finishing line is finally in sight. A PC release has not been confirmed at this stage; Rockstar has officially announced PS5 and Xbox Series X/S for launch.

Last words

GTA 6 is shaping up to be the biggest gaming release of 2026 — and Singapore fans can lock in their copy next Thursday when pre-orders open on June 25. SGD pricing has not yet been confirmed; full edition details and pricing are expected when pre-orders go live. Keep an eye on the PlayStation Store Singapore and our game news coverage for updates when they drop.

NARUTO Card Game Is Coming in 2027 — Bandai’s Newest TCG Revealed

Leave a comment

Bandai Card Games has officially announced the NARUTO CARD GAME, a brand-new strategy-focused trading card game set in Masashi Kishimoto’s beloved ninja world — and it is coming to players worldwide in 2027.

NARUTO CARD GAME – Official Teaser Trailer — via IGN on YouTube

What Is the NARUTO CARD GAME?

Built by BANDAI CARD GAMES — the same brand behind the Dragon Ball Super Card Game and Digimon Card Game — the NARUTO CARD GAME is designed as a strategy-first competitive TCG. Full details on card mechanics, deck construction, and rarity tiers are held until 29 July 2026, the day before its first public playable event. What is confirmed is that this is a proper standalone TCG, not a collectible set, targeting the competitive card game audience.

NARUTO, the manga by Masashi Kishimoto, ran for 700 chapters and now sits at over 250 million copies in circulation worldwide. The franchise is one of the defining properties of Singapore’s ACG scene, and a dedicated competitive TCG has been a long time coming for fans here.

World Debut at Gen Con 2026

The game makes its global playable debut at Gen Con 2026 (30 July – 2 August, Indianapolis). Bandai is running free beginner Tutorial Sessions at the event, complete with demo decks. Attendees can also score the limited CP-001 Chakra Card promotional version, an exclusive backpack, a sticker, and a purchase ticket for the official playmat. Registration for tutorial slots opens on 21 June via the Gen Con website.

Kishimoto Sends a Message

Series creator Masashi Kishimoto offered a personal message alongside the reveal, as quoted in the official press release: “I’m glad to see the world of NARUTO grow larger once again. I truly hope these cards find their way to both your hands and your hearts.” A commemorative illustration accompanies the announcement.

What Singapore Players Should Watch For

Bandai Card Games products have a solid retail footprint in Singapore. The Digimon Card Game and Dragon Ball Super Card Game both support active local communities, with singles available at hobby stores across the island. It is reasonable to expect the NARUTO CARD GAME to follow a similar Southeast Asian distribution path — but no local retail or tournament roadmap has been announced yet.

Stay tuned via the official X account (@narutotcg_en) and the official website. The next major info drop is 29 July, when card designs, gameplay systems, and the full product roadmap will be revealed.

Last words

For Singapore’s ACG community, this is exactly the kind of announcement that gets card players talking. Naruto shaped a generation of anime fans here, and a properly competitive TCG treatment from Bandai — the house that made Digimon and Dragon Ball viable in local hobby stores — is worth getting genuinely excited about. Mark 29 July in your calendar for the full card reveal, and check out our other game news while you wait.

Until Then: Afterimages DLC Is Out Now

Leave a comment

The Until Then: Afterimages DLC is out today on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, and PC — adding two brand-new story chapters to the Overwhelmingly Positive-rated Philippine-made narrative adventure set in the streets of Metro Manila.

Until Then: Afterimages – Release Date Trailer — via Maximum Entertainment on YouTube

What’s in the Afterimages DLC?

Afterimages introduces two new standalone chapters that follow supporting characters from the base game as they reckon with grief, growth, and the passage of time.

Chapter 1: Homecoming (Sofia)

Sofia returns to her hometown during a lockdown — familiar places have changed, people have moved on. The chapter explores what it means to revisit a life you once left behind.

Chapter 2: Sparks (Mark)

Mark is now the head of a college organisation where he finds an unexpected romance and reconnects with an old friend. It is quieter than the main game’s drama, but no less affecting.

New Gameplay and Features in the DLC

Alongside the two new narrative chapters, Afterimages adds a handful of fresh mini-games — tarot card reading and baking feature prominently — plus expanded in-game smartphone content including dating app conversations and video-sharing platforms. Fans who loved the base game’s chatty phone UI will feel right at home.

Now on Xbox — and a Physical Edition This September

Until Then is also now available on Xbox Series X|S for the first time, bringing Polychroma’s acclaimed game to Microsoft console players. If you prefer a disc on the shelf, a physical edition bundling both the base game and the Afterimages DLC arrives on September 3, 2026.

The DLC is priced at US$4.99 on Steam (base game required). Check your regional Steam store for local pricing.

Why Singapore Gamers Should Play It

Developer Polychroma Games is based in the Philippines, and Until Then is one of the most culturally grounded games to emerge from Southeast Asia — rendered in a stunning 2.5D pixel-art style and set in a fictional version of Metro Manila that players across the region have found unexpectedly resonant. The base game holds an Overwhelmingly Positive rating on Steam with over 13,000 reviews, has swept multiple local Game of the Year awards, and was featured prominently at the Southeast Asian Games Showcase 2026.

If you have not played the base game yet, the physical edition in September is the perfect entry point. For those who have already lived through Mark’s story once — Afterimages is ready for you today.

Last words

Southeast Asia has no shortage of creative talent, and Until Then remains one of the strongest arguments for paying attention to what our neighbours are making. The Afterimages DLC is a small but heartfelt addition to one of the region’s best-loved games — out today across all major platforms.

Deltarune Chapter 5 Is Out Next Week — Free Update on All Platforms

Leave a comment

Toby Fox’s acclaimed RPG series is adding its next chapter in under a week. Deltarune Chapter 5: The Field of Pink and Gold launches simultaneously worldwide on Wednesday, 24 June 2026 at 11 a.m. EDT — that is 11 p.m. SGT on the same night — and it arrives as a free update for everyone who already owns the game.

DELTARUNE – Nintendo Direct 6.9.2026 — via Nintendo of America on YouTube

One More Adventure Before the Final Act

If Chapter 4 left you feeling unsettled — dark clouds on the horizon and all that — Fox says Chapter 5 is a deliberate tonal shift. In his release-date newsletter he described it as a chance to “turn around and watch the sun, before it goes down completely” and enjoy “one more fun adventure” before the story heads into its closing chapters. The Dark World this time is built around Asgore’s flower shop, Flower King, which explains the floral enemies, the sprawling pink-and-gold colour palette, and the chapter’s subtitle.

Fox also confirmed he deliberately kept the best moments out of the reveal trailer, writing that he “avoided showing the most exciting moments” to preserve first-time surprises. The 46-second Nintendo Direct clip is restrained on purpose — trust that there is more waiting inside.

What Singapore Players Need to Know

The release is simultaneous worldwide, so no region-locking to worry about. Here is the quick breakdown:

  • Release time (SGT): Wednesday, 24 June 2026 at 11 p.m.
  • Platforms: Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, PS4, PS5, PC (Windows), Mac
  • Existing owners: Free update — no extra purchase needed
  • New to Deltarune? All five chapters are bundled for USD 24.99 on Steam, the Nintendo eShop, and the PlayStation Store (approximately S$33–35 at current rates; local storefront pricing to be confirmed)
  • Just curious? Chapters 1 and 2 remain free to download on all platforms

What Comes After Chapter 5?

The series is planned as a seven-chapter story, and Fox shared some welcome news on that front: Chapter 6 is already in active development and moving faster than previous chapters, with some staff potentially beginning work on Chapter 7 before the year is out. With Chapter 5 arriving this week, the finish line of one of gaming’s most beloved indie stories is starting to come into view.

Follow our Game News section for updates as Chapter 5 drops next week.

Last words

Whether you are a veteran who has replayed Chapters 1 through 4 multiple times or a newcomer who stumbled in through Undertale, the timing here is ideal. Six days out. Mark 24 June in the calendar, Singapore — 11 p.m. is when the flowers bloom.
