The first character trailer introduces So-Young Han, known as Shizuku Shinomiya in the Japanese version and voiced by Ayaka Shimizu.
White Day: A Labyrinth Named School and the most popular girl in school. Hee-Min Lee finds her diary accidentally abandoned on a bench, and resolves to return it overnight.
White Day: A Labyrinth Named School is due out for PlayStation 4 in North America and PC via Steam worldwide on August 22, and for PlayStation 4 in Japan on August 24 and Europe on August 25.
BlazBlue: Central Fiction character DLC ‘Jubei’ launches August 31 in Japan
Jubei will be added to BlazBlue: Central Fiction as a playable character via downloadable content on August 31 in Japan for 800 yen alongside a free patch adding in the recent arcade version battle balances, developer Arc System Works announced.
This release date only applies to the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 3 versions, as Arc System Works notes that the downloadable content and free patch will launch for the PC version “in the near future.” We imagine this will coincide with the western release of the additional character and patch, which are currently slated for “summer.”
Jubei will be playable in every mode and have six additional colors (No. 16 to 21). Here’s a brief overview of the character, via Arc System Works:
Jubei is one of the Six Heroes that saved humanity during the Great Dark War that occurred 100 years ago. He is an important character who has a close connection to the characters of this game. He is the protagonist Ragna’s swordsmanship master and life saver, husband to the Great Mage Nine, and father to Kokonoe. By making Jubei playable this time, you can learn of his various aspects, such as the power true to his name of “the strongest being on the planet,” of his suffering, and of his love for his family.
BlazBlue: Central Fiction is available now for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, and PC.
Arc System Works has announced Damascus Gear: Saikyo Exodus HD Edition, a high-definition version of the March-launched PS Vita title with expanded content, for PlayStation 4 and PC. The PlayStation 4 version will launch on August 29 in Japan, while the PC version will launch via Steam this winter.
In Damascus Gear: Saikyo Exodus HD Edition, the player pilots a robot called a “Gear” in order to repay his debt of 100 million Eyn within the span of a month.
Players can freely customize their Gear for battle from eight parts with an abundance of variations. Powerful parts can be stolen from enemies during missions to strengthen the player’s robot. Parts have special effects known as “characteristics,” and by combining parts and characteristics, players can build a Gear suited to their strategy. More than 45 types of robots and 2,400 types of parts that didn’t appear in Damascus Gear: Operation Tokyo have been added.
Once the players establishes their Gear, they will fight rival Gears to win large amounts of money and pay back their debt, rank up, and take on higher difficulty missions to earn more valuable parts. Additionally, there are more elements to develop the player character.
New elements in the HD Edition include high-definition image quality, the addition of a new dropped item called a “Rare Chip” that can be exchanged for valuable parts at the shop, new end-game content that can be challenged by meeting certain conditions, and balance adjustments to the game overall that make it easier to play.
Additionally, when the PlayStation 4 version launches on August 29 in Japan, the PS Vita original will be updated to version 1.02, which will add the new content and balance adjustments from the HD Edition.
