Persona 5’s Remaining Cast Members, And More
While Famitsu leaks earlier this week revealed the names and offered a short bio of some of the remaining cast members of Persona 5, more information has been officially revealed, including names and other information on the game itself. Keep in mind that there is one more character who it seems has yet to be fully revealed (towards the upper right in the featured image used for this article)…
In any case, here’s an introduction to more of your friends in this game!
Futaba Sakura is the navigator of the group, with the age of a first-year in high school and an exceptionally gifted level of intellect and talent for programming and calculation. However, she lacks for social skills and is a shut-in due to a certain incident in her life; Sakura does not attend school after her middle-school graduation. She is often awkward around others and covers her head in public, though she does not do this with the Protagonist. Her starting Persona is Necronomicon, which is UFO-like. Sakura has a special connection to the overarching events of Persona 5’s story.

Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA X Will Support Cross-Platform Save Data Across All Regions (UPDATE)
UPDATE: Note that you still need to use the same PSN account across the different platforms. It’s not possible to transfer save data from one PSN account on another.
Original article:
Localization Producer Sam Mullen has given Project DIVA fans some great news regarding the upcoming release of Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA X in the West. Previously, it had been reported that the “Import Save” feature from Project DIVA F 2nd wouldn’t be present in Project DIVA X. This led fans to assume that it wouldn’t be possible to transfer savegames from the Japanese version to the US(/EU?) one. However, it turns out that this isn’t actually the case. While the import feature is indeed gone, that’s simply because it’s no longer necessary. In fact, Project DIVA X will now use a single Cross Save repository across all platforms and regions the game will be available on. For more details, we copied Sam Mullen’s explanation from NeoGAF here:

New Commercial For Yakuza Kiwami Korean Version – The Story Continues…
Speaking of silly commercials…
When we last saw Toshihiro Nagoshi, he had revealed something powerful to the Korean mafia – a Korean copy of Yakuza Kiwami.
After this plot twist, the story continues with a tense exchange over drinks, and a quick overview of some of the game’s action sequences.
All of it culminating with Nagoshi dropping a major bombshell: the release date of the Korean version of Yakuza Kiwami. His business partner on the other side of the table is absolutely shell-shocked.
May 26th, 2016. The date when the magic happens.
Check out the minute and a half trailer below (no English subtitles, Japanese subtitles for the spoken Korean parts.) Riveting stuff. You’ll be on the edge of your seat.

PS4 Version of Phantasy Star Online 2 Gets a New (Silly) Web Commercial in Japan
The PlayStation 4 version of Phantasy Star Online 2: Episode 4 was recently launched in Japan, and SEGA has released a new web commercial to promote the game’s various features. You can watch the commercial below, which gives an overview of the various elements of the game, such as the large-scale multi-player battles, the different settings. and the character customization system. Regarding the latter, one of the sillier parts of the commercial features a player who appears to be just a bit too excited about the breast slider feature in PSO2’s character creator.
Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA X: PlayStation Vita vs. PlayStation 4 Comparison, Part 2
In an earlier article we already compared screenshots from the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation Vita version of Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA X. With the footage from the PlayStation 4 version of Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA X that SEGA of Japan provided yesterday, we can now compare how both versions of the game look in motion. It should be noted though that the PS4 version is very much a work in progress, so none of what we see is final. In fact, as I’ll point out in this article later on, some changes have already been made to the game compared to the original screenshots.
Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA X Release Date Set for August 30 in the Americas!
SEGA of America has revealed the release date for Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA X in the Americas! The game will be released on August 30 for both the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation Vita. The PlayStation 4 version will cost $49.99/CA$64.99, and the PlayStation Vita version $39.99/CA$54.99. While the Japanese PS4 version was labeled as an “HD” version in its name, in the Americas both versions of the game will simply be called Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA X. You can view a new English trailer below, showing new PS4 footage that hasn’t even been shown for the Japanese version of the game. Clearly, it seems SEGA is really aiming for the market overseas with the PS4 version, with a release date in the Americas only five days after the release of the PS4 version in Japan. This makes is all the more unfortunate, and almost incomprehensible from a marketing standpoint, that a European version hasn’t even been announced.
