A yellow kimono. A damaged lacquered hat. The Ghost mask with its kintsugi effect.

More than a simple garment, Atsu’s outfit from Ghost of Yōtei’s trailers and artwork has quickly become iconic. And while this is the outfit you’ll begin your journey with, you’ll quickly be searching for upgraded armour and speciality gear if you plan on surviving Ezo.

Understanding the challenges that lay ahead of you, developer SuckerPunch has introduced a builds system to Ghost of Yōtei, allowing players to combine the special features of armour and outfits with the boons offered by the charms found throughout the world.

Greetings, Travelers! We’re delighted to meet you once again as Genshin Impact Version Luna II, Song of the Welkin Moon: Reprise — “An Elegy for Faded Moonlight,” will be launching on October 22. The story in Nod-Krai grows ever more intense as another clash with the formidable enemy, “Rächer of Solnari,” looms on the horizon. To confront this threat, you will join forces with the Fatui Harbingers and other unexpected allies. Among them, the new 5-star character Nefer steps into the fray, unlocking new strategic possibilities for Lunar-Bloom reactions. Furthermore, this update heralds the long-awaited debut of Miliastra Wonderland! This brand-new UGC (User-Generated Content) system allows you to explore hundreds of imaginative stages created by other players. You can also personalize your very own Manekin or Manekina with distinctive styles.

New power rising against the Sinner

Back in Nod-Krai, the path ahead remains uncertain, overshadowed by the looming threat of “Rächer of Solnari,” Rerir — one of the Five Sinners. The newest Archon Quest in Version Luna II delves deeper into the secrets of this formidable foe, with support arriving from both trusted companions and unexpected allies. The powerful Fatui Harbingers, Arlecchino and Sandrone, will lend their strength to the fight against Rerir. Meanwhile, Nefer, the head of the Curatorium of Secrets, may hold the key to uncovering the truth behind the enemy’s dark obsession. And just when the battle reaches its most perilous moment, our long-awaited old friend, Varka, makes a timely return, poised to turn the tide.

Meanwhile, The Damselette awaits in the Silvermoon Hall, ready to share more of her stories. In Version Luna II, Traveler can spend more time with this mysterious maiden. In return for your companionship, she will grant you the Ascendant Gleam state — a blessing from the Moon Goddess to aid you in combat. As a final token of her grace, fulfilling her request will also reward you with an exclusive namecard.

The lady to know all hearts

Beyond the unfolding storyline, the new 5-star character Nefer debuts as a Dendro Catalyst wielder. As the head of the Curatorium of Secrets, she navigates a web of hidden knowledge with ease, possessing an uncanny ability to sense when even the most reserved individuals are guarding secrets. The intelligence she unearths with her unique talent can even be exchanged at the Adventurers’ Guild for a collection of quirky anecdotes.

In combat, this elegant and sharp-eyed lady takes increased Lunar-Bloom DMG. By consuming Verdant Dew, Nefer can execute her special Charged Attack, Phantasm Performance, which summons a shade of herself to fight alongside her, dealing Lunar-Bloom DMG. When buffed by the Moonsign: Ascendant Gleam state, her Elemental Skill transforms all Dendro Cores into Seeds of Deceit. Nefer can then draw in these special resources to empower both her Charg

Create an infinite number of unique islands to house prehistoric animals with Jurassic World Evolution 3’s Island Generator. The Island Generator will be available to players in game when it launches October 21 on PlayStation Store, and is available to pre-order now.

The powerful new feature in Sandbox Mode will allow players to create completely custom island layouts on which to build their sprawling Parks.

Park Managers will have control over the Shape and Terrain of the island, as well as the amount of Trees, Water and Mountains, giving them the tools to create endless unique tropical islands at the tweak of a slider.

The Island Generator also comes with the full host of sandbox settings so Park Managers can build, manage, and control every aspect of their Parks.

Each island layout will have an Island DNA code, so players can share the seed and settings of their island. Inputting other players Island DNA codes will let them recreate other islands players have made. Players will also be able to upload Parks to the Frontier Workshop to share their Community Creations.

“We are so excited to bring the Island Generator to Jurassic World Evolution 3. This is a feature we have wanted to realise for a long time now, and with the incredible new environmental tools we’ve developed for JWE3, we are finally able to do it justice. Not only does this feature give players endless variety in their Sandbox maps, but the ability to share Parks on the Frontier Workshop means that people all around the world can see how you’ve developed your own unique starting point into a truly distinctive park. We also really love that players can use Monorails and Hyperloop transport systems to connect and extend their park out to any smaller islands that may have been generated away from the main landmass. The potential for elaborate and creative island parks is now grea
