If there's one great enemy in life, it's time. It robs us of everything, the ever-forward march of history stampeding over all and sundry. Dotage comes for everyone and time's trot into the future is to blame for all of it. So you can understand the mixed feelings I have when I realize that World of Warcraft is nearly 20 years old.

Naruto to Boruto: Shinobi Striker PS4 Online Play Restored

Back on August 22, 2024, Bandai Namco announced Naruto to Boruto: Shinobi Striker PS4 issues caused extended maintenance, but now it ended and online play returned on September 4, 2024. Apology gifts are being sent out on all platforms both to make amends for the outage and the change in the event schedule dates for the 6th Anniversary Campaign.

Bandai Namco noted that the Ninja Tools Shop Scroll Appraisal issue is what caused the PS4 version of Naruto to Boruto: Shinobi Striker to go offline and be in maintenance until it could be fixed and online play could be restored. PS4 players will get 30 Esoteric Scrolls as an apology gift for the issue. Those who logged in before August 22, 2024 can get it immediately at the Inn Gift Box. Those who didn't log in before the extended maintenance began, but who do log in between September 4-12, 2024, can then get the 30 Esoteric Scrolls at the Inn after September 12, 2024. Anyone playing on the Xbox One or PC version who logged in before September 4, 2024 can get 10 Esoteric Scrolls as an apology for the 6th Anniversary Campaign dates changing. 

As for the Naruto to Boruto: Shinobi Striker 6th Anniversary Campaign event, the event schedule only changes the end dates for the seven activities that started on August 22, 2024. Here is when each one will end as a result of the PS4 issues for all players now.

  • Emergency Special Mission 1: September 12, 2024.
  • Free Ninjutsu Trial Campaign: September 19, 2024.
  • Huge Sale in the Ninja Tools Shop: October 3, 2024.
  • Ninja Tool and Weapon Trial Event: September 19, 2024.
  • Ninja World Hero Festival 30: September 12, 2024.
  • Sixth Anniversary Login Bonus (Part 1): September 19, 2024.
  • Special Boost: October 3, 2024.

The new schedule didn't mention anything about the second part of the Sixth Anniversary Login Bonus. The issue came up right as the new season debuted and Shisui Uchiha (Perfect Susano'o) was added to the roster as DLC. 

Naruto to Boruto: Shinobi Striker and its Ultimate Edition are available for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Windows PC, online play is available on all platforms, and the 6th Anniversary Campaign event will run until October 3, 2024.

honkai star rail feixiao

A new "Keeping Up with Star Rail" video has appeared on the Honkai: Star Rail YouTube channel, with Feixiao the star of the show this time. Her healer and confidant Jiaoqiu is the one describing her kit this time.

You can watch the Feixiao "Keeping Up with Star Rail" video here:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nuMizMJq6G0

It's also available in Mandarin Chinese and Korean. Due to "recording arrangements," the English channel has uploaded the video using the Japanese audio. There has been some speculation in the comments as to what issue may be going on behind the scenes, but there's no concrete information on that from HoYoVerse.

Feixiao will be a 5-star Wind Hunt character who can deal follow-up attacks on enemies after an ally attacks them. Like Acheron, her Ultimate comes from stacks. In Feixiao's case, she gains a Flying Aureus stack every two attacks allies launch on an enemy. Once she reaches six Flying Aureus points, she can use her Ultimate. Her Ultimate can reduce Toughness no matter the Weakness Type. It'll launch six strikes on a single enemy before a final blow, and whether the enemy is Weakness Broken or not will affect which move she uses during those first six strikes.

Honkai: Star Rail is readily available on the PS5, Windows PC, and mobile devices. Feixiao will appear in Honkai: Star Rail after the Version 2.5 update launches on September 10, 2024.

honkai star rail moze

Ahead of his playable debut, HoYoVerse has revealed some information on Moze, who'll appear as a new character in Honkai: Star Rail Version 2.5. He'll be a 4-star Lightning Hunt character who fills the DPS niche on a team.

In terms of his kit, Moze can use his Skill to mark an enemy as Prey. When allies attack the Prey, Moze can deal additional Lightning DMG and consume a Charge. After consuming a certain amount of Charges, he can launch a follow-up attack. Once the number of Charges hit 0, it'll dispel the Prey state. Finally, his Ultimate deals Lightning DMG and then launches his follow-up attack.

As for his character, Moze is a Shadow Guard for the Xianzhou Yaoqing and he's briefly appeared in the 2.4 Trailblaze Continuance along with fellow Yaoqing characters Feixiao and Jiaoqiu. His job includes assassinations, intelligence gathering, and stealth operations. Because of that, he tends to remain quiet and on-guard. Remnants of the Disciples of Sanctus Medicus raised him and Feixiao took him in after the organization fell. Though Feixiao gave Moze permission to try and assassinate her, he's never succeeded.

Honkai: Star Rail is readily available on the PS5, Windows PC, and mobile devices. Moze will appear in Honkai: Star Rail as part of the Version 2.5 update and he'll be in the first phase alongside his superior, Feixiao.

tekken sake

Kurand has opened up pre-orders for a Tekken 30th anniversary sake set. It'll come in a box depicting Mishima Kazuya and Kazama Jin fighting, as well as come with an original glass.

The sake set will cost 19,800 JPY ($137.85) and it only comes in a 720 ml bottle. Pre-orders will close on October 4, 2024 and then Kurand will start shipping out orders from late November 2024. As this is alcohol, people outside of Japan may experience difficulties importing or exporting this product. Something else to keep in mind is that Kurand will only produce 300 bottles of the sake. So if you really want this, you may want to put in an order as soon as you can.

The Tekken 30th anniversary sake (really a barley shochu) has a very deep flavor and fragrance as a nod to the long history of the series. The name of the drink  is Fuujinken, which translates to Wind God Fist. It's a name of a move from Mishima Style Karate. Fuujinken uses barley from Miyazaki that's been matured for over 30 years. Its age gives it a smooth taste.

Tekken started in 1994. Since then, it's spawned numerous sequels, spin-off games, film adaptations, and more. As of 2023, the franchise has sold over 58 million copies worldwide. This makes it one of the best-selling fighting game franchises of all time.

The Tekken 30th anniversary sake, barley shochu Fuujinken, is available for pre-order on Kurand's website. The latest game in the Tekken series, Tekken 8, is readily available on the PS5, Xbox Series X, and Windows PC.

shin megami tensei rings

Takara Tomy will start selling little fashionable rings based off popular demons in the Shin Megami Tensei series from late September 2024. You'll be able to get them in gacha machines and it'll cost 300 JPY ($2.10) per try. [Thanks, Hobby Watch!]

In total, there are five variations of rings you can get. They are Jack Frost, Jack-o'-Lantern, Black Frost, Decarabia, and Chironnupu. Each ring is about 30 millimeters in size and shows the head of the demon in question. There doesn't seem to be a way to buy an entire box set of the rings so if you're going for a particular one, you'll need to engage in real-life gacha.

All of the mascots above are quite popular characters throughout the Shin Megami Tensei franchise. Jack Frost in particular is essentially a mascot for Atlus at this point considering the prevalency of this particular demon. Decarabia is also quite popular, likely due to its design. When Atlus held a popularity poll back in 2017 for Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey Redux, Decarabia  came in 7th place. Finally, though Chironnupu is a relatively new addition to the franchise compared to the other ones Takara Tomy is making rings of, it has a very traditional "cute" design due to its fox mask and small body.

The Shin Megami Tensei series gacha rings will appear in Japan from late September 2024.

neo fantasian dimension voice acting

In an interview with Famitsu for Fantasian Neo Dimension, Naoki Yoshida of Square Enix and Hironobu Sakaguchi of Mistwalker discussed the addition of voice acting in the game. Other updates to the game include 4K resolution support for larger screens. [Thanks, Famitsu!]

After the Famitsu interviewer asks the pair about additions to Fantasian Neo Dimension, Yoshida stated that Square Enix really pushed for voice acting. He believes that this would make it easier for both newcomers and veterans of the game to immerse themselves into the world. Sakaguchi states that modern players are used to games with voice acting and that to them, stories are something they watch, rather than read. So voice acting will help increase a player's motivation to get all the way to the end. That's why Yoshida heavily suggested it to Sakaguchi.

In response, Sakaguchi said that he doesn't usually add voice acting to his games but when playing it during the development phase, he was like "Wow, this is amazing!" He wishes to thank Yoshida for the suggestion and understands that Yoshida was so pushy about it because he wanted to make sure as many people as possible could experience the appeal of Fantasian. As a note, the game isn't fully voice-acted. Random NPCs do not have voice acting so as not to disturb the tempo of the game.

Fantasian Neo Dimension will come out on the PS4, PS5, Nintendo Switch, Xbox Series X, and Windows PC some time in Winter 2024.

Licker Plush Resident Evil

Universal Studios Japan and Capcom will release new Resident Evil merchandise in September. One of the new Resident Evil items is a Licker plush. Additional merchandise includes T-shirts and a S.T.A.R.S. themed pouch. These items will appear as part of the Universal Studios Japan Halloween 2024 celebration on September 5, 2024. [Thanks, Game Watch!]

As mentioned previously, a Resident Evil Licker plush will be available to purchase during this period. While the plush is relatively small, it can be attached to the shoulder with a series of clips. This is similar to other merchandise at Universal Studios that can be found in other areas of the park.

Other merchandise includes a B.S.A.A. t-shirt, the aforementioned S.T.A.R.S. pouch that comes with a badge attached, an R.P.D. bag, a First-Aid spray water bottle, and a series of keychains based on the puppet appearances of the villains of Resident Evil Village that appeared in a series of skits.

These items are exclusive to Universal Japan, and will not appear at Universal Studios Hollywood or Universal Studios Florida. Which means if you would like to get your hands on these items, you will need to do so through a middle-man service.

Resident Evil 2 Remake is available on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, Xbox One, and PC. The new Resident Evil merchandise items at Universal Studios Japan will be available on September 5, 2024.

Fields of Mistria Clip Shows How to Set Repeated Tool Use Button in Controls

NPC Studio shared a quick update to remind Fields of Mistria players that the game supports a repeated tool use button in its controls and offered a clip showing how to implement it in-game. The gif walks through the feature, found in the Settings menu, and shows how the change causes it to work in the field. 

The clip begins by showing what the normal use tool action looks like in Fields of Mistria. From there, the gif goes into the Controls section in Settings. That's where someone can change the key bindings in-game. Between Use Tool (Charged) and Cast Pinned Spill is a Use Tool (Repeated) control option in Fields of Mistria, which is blank by default. In the example, that action is then mapped to the right mouse button. To show the difference, the gif then shows the Use Tool (Repeated) control option being used to break up a rock in the field.

Here's the full clip showing how to set up the repeated tool use control option in Fields of Mistria.

https://twitter.com/FieldsofMistria/status/1831355739849285681

Since launch, NPC Studio mainly uses social media to show off tips for controls, gameplay, or even decorating options. It also confirmed when the game became Steam Deck verified there, as well as when the developers went on a brief break before starting work on the Q4 2024 update.

Fields of Mistria is in early access on PCs, and the 1.0 version is expected to launch in 2025.
