Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE Encore European Overview Trailer & Analysis

Heads up everyone, it’s the Prince of Iris reporting in! I’ve been kindly invited to contribute to our site as a guest editor, and I’m happy to be here with my first article! Without further ado, read on!

Recently, Nintendo of Europe released a new trailer for Tokyo Mirage Sessions ♯FE Encore, the upcoming enhanced version of the game for Nintendo Switch. You can watch this trailer in higher quality on YouTube.

In the first few seconds, the trailer notes that Encore will only have Japanese voiceovers, just like the original Wii U game. There may have been hope or speculation from fans that this wouldn’t be the case with this new release and that there’d be English voiceovers this time around, but this small note appears to finally settle the matter.

As a reminder, new to Encore will be French text. This was already mentioned on the Nintendo eShop, but there’s supposed to be Chinese text available as well. Presumably, this can be adjusted through the Nintendo Switch system settings.

The trailer provides a first look at an all-new outfit for the character Touma, appearing during battle. This outfit never showed up in the Wii U version, but it appears to be based on his existing Ouga suit. I wonder what’s the story behind it…

It was detailed previously that there would be more costumes yet to be revealed. So this is one of them! What other new outfits could await the wardrobe?

Three Houses: February 2019 Direct Analysis

The wait for new Fire Emblem: Three Houses information has been painful for fans, but we can breathe a sigh of relief for now. During the February 2019 Nintendo Direct, we got our first look at the brand new Switch title since its E3 2018 debut.

The new trailer seems to open where the last one left off, with the mysterious young green-haired girl–presumably a dragon, because of her pointy ears–waking up from her slumber. Well, we’ve had dragons sleeping for centuries with Tiki, but 200+ days is quite a long time for us humans to wait!

As we suspected, this girl isn’t Tiki herself, but a brand new character that we later learn is called Sothis. She seems a bit surprised to see you here–and we’ll learn why later.

Right afterwards, we’re shown the game’s logo, which has been slightly updated. In particular, the “Three Houses” text now has a fancier, cursive font. The Japanese logo has been updated too, with the “moon” kanji (getsu) resembling a crescent moon.

It’s not just the logo that’s different, the world map of Fodlan has a few changes too. Most notably, the name of the three key nations–and the name of the continent itself–have been updated with their English translations.

Vestaria Saga English Trailer + Demo Coming Soon

It’s been a long time coming, but we finally have new, concrete details about the official English version of the first Vestaria Saga game!

For the uninitiated, Vestaria Saga is an indie Strategy RPG developed by S_Kaga and Vestaria Project, created using SRPG Studio. Despite its humble appearances, it’s an incredibly well-crafted game, with devious puzzle-like gameplay and a rich story.

Originally, the game was released in September 2016 and, surprisingly, an English translation was teased in August 2017, nearly a year ago. Now we know that Dangen Entertainment is behind the English translation and it’ll be 2019 before it releases.

However to ease the wait slightly, a one-stage demo is planned to be released in the coming days. If you’re interested, check out the game’s Steam page, where you can download the demo once it becomes available.

Also, we’re currently looking to ask Dangen Entertainment some questions about the translation and acquisition of Vestaria Saga. If you have any burning questions you’d like to ask them, feel free to post in the comments!

Following last week’s Awakening characters trailer, the Fire Emblem Warriors Twitter has dropped two more trailers showcasing all of the currently-revealed warriors from Fates.

Trailer number 2 features the black-clad royals from Nohr.

Meanwhile, the 3rd trailer highlights the Hoshidan royals–and features our first look at Sakura in motion.

In other news, there have been rumours about a new image of the European limited edition boxart revealing the full roster (the main one anyway), including a couple of yet-to-be-announced characters.

Although we generally don’t report our rumours, this one is fairly substantial and has been slowly gaining traction, so we might as well grab our magnifying lens to take a look…
