     Yakuza devs discuss Like a Dragon 8 characters and Kenzan at TGS 2022

Returning Like a Dragon 8 characters and the possibility of a Yakuza Kenzan remake are among the topics discussed by the series creators at Tokyo Game Show 2022. Ryu ga Gotoku Studio, the development team behind the RPG games formerly known as Yakuza - which is now fully adopting its original 'Like a Dragon' moniker in the west - talked about its future products and why the remake of Like a Dragon: Ishin is unlikely to be followed up by similar treatment for its Edo period predecessor.

     Starfield interview: ex Bethesda dev on scale, building a new universe

We've had the opportunity to do a Starfield interview, which could very well be the magnum opus of Bethesda's RPG games, as the studio steps out from behind the likes of Fallout and The Elder Scrolls to develop a new universe that redefines its open-world games to be more open-universe, with thousands of planets to explore. This anticipation drove us to chat with an ex-Bethesda developer, who struck out on his own after leaving Bethesda last year and working on Starfield for quite some time.

Splatoon 3 x Pokémon

Nintendo is combining the clout of two of its most powerful brands for the next Splatfest. The Splatoon 3 x Pokemon Splatfest will pit Splatoon players against each other in a three-way conflict. The question at heart: Which of the three starting Pokemon types is the best? For North America, the Splatfest is scheduled for November 11-13, 2022.

Since the first Pokemon games launched in 1998 (or 1996), players have been given a choice of three types for their starter: Grass, Fire, or Water. Now, the Splatoon 3 x Pokemon Splatfest will put the choice to Splatoon players, having them choose to join Team Grass, Team Fire, or Team Water. Each team is aligned with a member of Deep Cut, the Splatcast hosts.

As with other Splatfests, players will choose their team ahead of time. When the event kicks off, all Turf War matches will be held between the different teams. At the halfway point, Tricolor Turf War is activated. During Tricolor matches, the leading team will take on both of the other teams simultaneously. At the end of the event, the winning team is determined, and its members are awarded Super Sea Snails. The Snails can be used to add stars and sub ability slots to gear.

Check out some art created to promote the Splatoon 3 x Pokemon Splatfest in the gallery below.

Though the Splatoon 3 x Pokemon Splatfest is set for November,  it may not arrive before Nintendo implements some planned changes to Splatfests. In a statement from September, Nintendo said it was working to address complaints raised about the quality of matchmaking, particularly for Tricolor Battles. Many players would select Tricolor but be placed into a standard Turf War. Nintendo said it intended to implement the adjustments with the next season, beginning in December 2022.

Splatoon 3 is readily available on the Nintendo Switch. The Splatoon 3 x Pokemon Splatfest is scheduled for November 11, 2022, at 4:00 PM PT through November 13, 2022, at 4:00 PM PT.

kimetsu no yaiba demon slayer art book coloring book

Viz has announced a Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba art book, as well as a second coloring book. Both will come out in Summer 2023. While the coloring book will only feature art from creator Koyoharu Gotouge, the art book will include pieces from ufotable.

The Art of Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba The Anime will have over 300 pieces of art from the show. This is a separate art book from The Art of Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba, which only uses art from Koyoharu Gotouge. For the anime version of the art book, there will likely be storyboards and drafts from the show. You will likely also be able to see eyecatch art, as well as read trivia on the design choices.

The first Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba coloring book came out in 2021 for the West. The second one originally released in October 2021 for Japan and you can get a teaser for some of the pages on Shueisha's website. Characters who appear include members of the Rengoku family, as well as Akaza. There are some pages from the manga that you can color in as well.

Aside from the show and manga being a juggernaut in terms of popularity, the movie also won three awards during the 44th Japan Academy Film Prize ceremony in 2021.

The Art of Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba The Anime and Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba: The Official Coloring Book 2 will come out in Summer 2023.

p4g p3p

Atlus has announced that ports of P3P (Persona 3 Portable) and P4G (Persona 4 Golden) will come out on January 19, 2023. These games were originally on the PSP and PS Vita, respectively. Though the announcement only displays Microsoft platforms, the two games will also be available on PlayStation consoles and the Nintendo Switch.

https://twitter.com/Atlus_West/status/1578696035932815360

Back in June 2022, Atlus announced that it would port P3P, P4G, and P5R onto modern consoles. Persona 5 Royal's PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, Nintendo Switch, and Windows PC versions will launch on October 21, 2022. Trailers for the ports have not made clear if they will be completely faithful or if they will restore some aspects of the original PS2 games that the portable versions cut. For example, in Persona 3, you could explore Iwatodai freely, while P3P made it so you could only choose locations from a menu.

Persona 3 Portable originally came out in 2009 and allowed players to choose a female protagonist. This altered Orpheus and social link stories, as well as offering the choice of a male Velvet Room attendant. P3P did not include "The Answer." Persona 4 Golden first debuted in 2011 and a Windows PC port of it appeared in 2020. It included social links for Adachi and new character Marie, and added new voice lines and anime cutscenes.

Persona 3 Portable and Persona 4 Golden will come out on the Xbox Series X, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PS4, and Windows PC on January 19, 2023.
