Male and Female Fire Emblem: Three Houses Byleth Figures Announced

In honor of the fifth anniversary of Fire Emblem: Three Houses, Good Smile Company announced figures of the male and female versions of Byleth. The game originally launched on July 26, 2019, and there's no launch window for the two new entries in the Pop Up Parade line.

So far, only concept art for the male and female Byleth figures appeared. Each one suggests the pose that might be used for the final product. Both will be wielding the Sword of the Creator, their signature weapon in the game.

Good Smile Company already released a figure of Byleth before. However, it was based on the female version of the professor. It was a 1/7th scale figure that launched in 2023, and it allowed people to switch the Sword of the Creator to change its look.

There are already multiple Black Eagles, Blue Lions, and Golden Deer Pop Up Parade figures. Claude, Lysithea, Dimitri, Felix, Edelgard, and Bernadetta ones already showed up. All of them depict the characters as students. There's also an Edelgard figma.

Fire Emblem: Three Houses is available on the Nintendo Switch, and the male and female Byleth Pop Up Parade figures are in development. There's no release window for either one yet.

Guilty Gear Strive Baiken Figure Is Ready to Fight in 2025

Proof completely unveiled its new Guilty Gear Strive Baiken figure and noted it will launch in March 2025. Rather than preparing for a fight, it depicts the warrior smoking her pipe. It will cost 22,000円 (~$143).

This Baiken figure is a static, 1/7 scale one. That means she stands at 270mm, which is about 10 and a half inches tall. She's in her default costume used for her latest appearance. Her sword is in its holster on her hip, and she is posed holding her pipe in her left hand. The base makes it look as though she is walking on a tatami mat with some maple leaves on it. She also comes with an additional translucent stand to help balance her due to her long hair.

Here's how the Proof Guilty Gear Strive version of Baiken looks.

Baiken isn't the only Guilty Gear Strive character appearing as a figure in 2025. Spiritale announced a new one of Bridget. It features her in a different color scheme, so she's in a purple outfit.

Guilty Gear Strive is available on the PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and PC. The Guilty Gear Strive: Dual Rulers anime will begin airing in 2025. The Baiken figure is expected to launch sometime in March 2025 in Japan.

Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver I & II Remastered Figures at SDCC

At SDCC 2024, it seems Kain and Raziel figures with Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver I & II Remastered branding appeared. Mama Robotnik shared photos on Resetera with the logo and two figures, and GameSpot learned from Dark Horse Comics Vice President Randy Lahrman that the figures will release in August 2024. [Thanks, Mama Robotnik on Resetera!]

At time of writing, there is no remaster of the two Legacy of Kain games announced. The original game followed Raziel after Kain stripped him of his wings for daring to surpass his master. The Elder God then makes the discarded Raziel into his soul reaver to defeat Kain to restore the Wheel of Fate and get revenge. The second game picks up directly after a confrontation between Raziel and Kain in the original. The upcoming Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver - The Dead Shall Rise prequel graphic novel is planned to come to Kickstarter and tell more of Raziel's story.

Here are the two images highlighting the Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver I & II Remastered logo that Mama Robotnik showed on Resetera. It almost looks like it is a pair of two figures that can be posed together

The original Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver appeared on the Dreamcast, PlayStation, and PC. It was on Steam for a time, but Crystal Dynamics pulled it. Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver 2 appeared on the PS2 and PC. It is still available on Steam and currently costs $6.99.

A Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver I & II Remastered remaster hasn't been announced.
