  • The Healer of New Aincrad: Undine Asuna

    The Healer of New Aincrad: Undine Asuna

    If you’re jumping into Sword Art Online Fractured Daydream, you know that when the “Galaxia” system goes haywire, you need a reliable backbone for your party. Enter Asuna (Undine)—the perfect blend of grace and tactical support.

    Why Play Undine Asuna?

    While her ALO persona is famous for being a “Berserk Healer,” in Fractured Daydream, she shines as a premier Support Class character. She isn’t just there to look at the scenery; she’s the glue holding the raid together.

    Aerial Dominance: Leveraging her Undine wings, she offers incredible verticality to dodge ground-based AoE attacks.

    Vital Sustainability: Her specialised water magic provides essential AOE heals that can turn the tide of a chaotic boss fight.

    Hydro-Blade Synergy: She doesn’t sacrifice offence for utility. Her rapier skills allow for quick, fluid strikes that apply pressure while her cooldowns reset.

    Quick Strategy Tip

    Don’t just spam heals! Use your status-cleansing abilities proactively. In the 20-player raids, timing your buffs during a boss’s “Down” state can maximise your team’s DPS output far more than just raw damage would.

    “Even in a fractured world, the bond of a party is unbreakable.”

    Are you maining Asuna for the heals, or do you prefer her high-speed Fencer playstyle in the standard SAO roster?

  • MY HERO ACADEMIA: All’s Justice out on February 6th

    MY HERO ACADEMIA: All’s Justice out on February 6th

    The hype for MY HERO ACADEMIA: All’s Justice is officially hitting Plus Ultra levels! With the game launching on February 6, 2026, Bandai Namco has finally revealed the massive roster we’ll be playing with.

    This is the largest lineup in the franchise’s history, featuring 51 characters at launch (plus pre-order bonuses and upcoming DLC). It’s designed to cover the entire series timeline, including the heavy-hitting forms from the Final War Arc.

    The Roster Breakdown

    The roster is split into four main categories, ensuring every fan has their “main” ready to go:

    • U.A. High School (Class 1-A & 1-B): The game features the entire Class 1-A lineup (all 20 students!), plus heavy hitters like Mirio Togata, Nejire Hado, and Hitoshi Shinso.
    • Pro Heroes: The big guns are here, including Armoured All Might, Endeavour, Hawks, Mirko, and Best Jeanist.
    • The Villains: Play as the most dangerous versions of Tomura Shigaraki (All For One form), Dabi (Flame of Death), and the terrifying All For One (Rewind).
    • Wildcards: Expect to see fan-favourites like Lady Nagant, Gentle & La Brava, and even the “High End” Nomu.

    Launch & Pre-Order Specials

    • Total Launch Roster: 51 Playable Characters.
    • Pre-Order Bonus: Early unlock for All For One (Chaos) and Izuku Midoriya (Rising).
    • Season Pass: 5 additional characters confirmed for post-launch.

    What’s New?

    Beyond the roster, the game introduces a 3v3 tag-team system and the “Rising” mechanic, which boosts your Quirk’s power and speed mid-fight. If you’ve been waiting for a “Sparking! ZERO” style treatment for MHA, this looks like the one.

    Platforms: PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC (Steam).

  • CODE VEIN II Armageddon Returns

    CODE VEIN II Armageddon Returns

    The long-awaited sequel to the 2019 anime-inspired Soulslike, CODE VEIN II, has officially arrived. Developed by Bandai Namco Studios, the title is launching on January 30, 2026, for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC, with early access already open for those who purchased the Deluxe or Ultimate editions.

    A World Divided by Time

    While the first game focused on the claustrophobic ruins of Vein, CODE VEIN II expands the scope significantly by introducing time travel. Players step into the shoes of a Revenant Hunter who, after a fatal mission, is revived by a mysterious girl named Lou MagMell.

    Together, they journey 100 years into the past to prevent the “Resurgence”—a cataclysmic event triggered by a corrupting force known as the Luna Rapacis that turns Revenants into mindless “Horrors.” This dual-era narrative means your actions in the past can ripple forward to change the layout and events of the present world.

    Evolved Combat & Mechanics

    The sequel retains the signature “Blood Code” system but introduces several major overhauls:

    • New Weapon Types: In addition to returning favourites, the game introduces Dual Blades, bringing the total weapon count to seven distinct classes.
    • The Link Point System: Partners are more than just AI backup. A new “Link Point” gauge acts as a shared shield between you and your ally. Maintaining this bond grants Link Traits (powerful temporary buffs), while taking too much damage can break the bond and leave you vulnerable.
    • Restorative Offering: A high-stakes mechanic where partners can sacrifice their own health to revive the player. However, this triggers a cooldown that leaves your partner incapacitated, forcing you to survive solo for a duration.

    Visuals and Performance

    Built on Unreal Engine 5, the game boasts a striking upgrade in lighting and environmental detail. While early reviews have praised the improved world design (moving away from the linear “corridor” feel of the original), some critics have noted that the higher fidelity comes with a cost—performance hitches have been reported on both PC and consoles during high-intensity boss fights.

  • New DLC coming to DRAGON BALL: Sparking! ZERO

    New DLC coming to DRAGON BALL: Sparking! ZERO

    DRAGON BALL: Sparking! ZERO continues to dominate the arena fighter scene with a massive 2026 roadmap that blends free gameplay overhauls with high-octane character expansions.

    Following its successful launch on Nintendo Switch and Switch 2 late last year, developer Spike Chunsoft is doubling down on the “Tenkaichi” legacy with fresh content for the new year.

    The 2026 DLC Roadmap

    The current year is divided into three major phases, focusing on single-player depth and iconic roster additions.

    1. The “Mission 100” Update (January 26, 2026)

    Just released this week, this free update is a direct love letter to Budokai Tenkaichi 3 fans.

    • Mission 100 Mode: A solo challenge mode featuring 100 unique combat scenarios. Each mission has specific win conditions and team restrictions, making it the perfect playground for testing character-specific strategies.
    • System Refinements: The update also introduced “Ultra” difficulty for the CPU and a bulk-purchase feature for the in-game shop.

    2. Survival Mode (Spring 2026)

    Coming later this spring, another free expansion will introduce an Endurance-based Survival Mode. Players will face a gauntlet of opponents with limited health recovery between rounds, emphasising resource management and defensive play.

    3. Major Summer DLC Expansion (Summer 2026)

    The biggest news is the upcoming paid DLC expansion set for this summer. While the official title is still under wraps, the teaser trailer has confirmed a heavy focus on fan-favourite “missing” legends:

    • Confirmed Characters: Super Android 17 (GT), King Piccolo (Original DB), and Super Saiyan Bardock.
    • New Moves: Customizable Super Attacks for base-roster icons like Goku and Vegeta.
    • New Stages: Additional battlegrounds, including a rumored Roshi’s Island revamp.
    • Theme Song: For the first time in 18 years, the legendary Hironobu Kageyama has written and performed a new theme song specifically for this expansion.

    Platform Availability

    PlatformCurrent Status
    **PS5 / Xbox Series XS / PC**
    Nintendo Switch / Switch 2The Mission 100 update and upcoming Summer DLC will arrive later this winter, as the platform is currently catching up with the DAIMA character packs.

    Looking Further Ahead: “Age 1000”

    While you’re grinding through Sparking! ZERO, keep an eye on April 2026. Bandai Namco has teased a new project titled “Dragon Ball: Age 1000” for 2027. It is reportedly one of the final projects Akira Toriyama worked on before his passing, focusing on a future era of the Dragon Ball timeline.

    PAC-MAN On The Streets Of New York City

    It sounds like a line from a movie but actually, PAC-MAN did really turn up on the streets of New York City, more than that this classic game appeared as a fantastic light show too. It is all part of the NYCC 2023 event that has been devised to celebrate the PAC-MAN Shine On event and the Pac-Man Mega Tunnel Battle: Chomp Champs.

    It is a great sight to see PAC-MAN roaming the streets of New York City, but more impressive was the drone light show over the harbour displaying the game’s characters in the night sky. It is all part of the NYCC 2023 event and for the launch of the Pac-Man Mega Tunnel Battle: Chomp Champs early next year.
