Burlingame, Calif. – November 21, 2019 – Today, KOEI TECMO America and developer GUST Studios revealed five new playable characters and further details of the intense magic battle systems in their upcoming JRPG, FAIRY TAIL, available Spring 2020 on Nintendo Switch™, PlayStation®4 computer entertainment system, and Windows PC via Steam®. Based on the anime and manga of the same name by Hiro Mashima, players will be able to follow the series’ enchanting storyline from the popular Tenrou Island arc through to the Tartaros arc, along with all-new original episodes.

FAIRY TAIL will see Natsu and the team fight against a variety of foes in their quest to become the No. 1 guild in Fiore. Battle parties consist of up to five mages, allowing fan-favorite characters to combine together to perform impressive magical attacks displayed across a three-by-three battlefield grid. Each move deals a certain amount of damage across the tiles – choosing appropriate attacks can ensure a swift victory over troublesome enemies. By dealing damage, players will fill up the ‘Fairy Gauge’. This special ‘Magic Chain’ attack allows each party member to deal a combo of attacks before unleashing a powerful finisher – sometimes strong characters, like the beloved Guild Leader Makarov, may even jump in to deal devastating damage with their ‘Extreme Magic’.

When the ally party comes under heavy damage and are in a pinch, characters can awaken dormant abilities for a few turns, drastically increasing their powers. Some mages even have access to whole new attacks – Dragon Slayers can use ‘Dragon Force’ instead of their ‘Awakened’ abilities, while some mages can perform a ‘Mode Change’ offering a wealth of new battle options. Natsu’s renowned ‘Lightning Fire Dragon’s Iron Fist’ is an example of the enhanced abilities that can be performed. Some mages are even able to unite together to perform mighty combination attacks, known as a ‘Unison Raid’, triggering a special ‘Unison Raid’ cutscene right before unleashing the incredible attack against oncoming foes.

To assist in battle, GUST Studios announced five new playable characters joining the fray -- not from FAIRY TAIL but from rival guilds in Fiore. New characters include the ‘Sky God Slayer’ Sherria Blendy from Lamia Scale, the ‘Strongest Fencer’ Kagura Mikazuchi from Mermaid Heel, the ‘Handsome’ Blue Pegasus mage Ichiya Vandalay Kotobuki, and the ‘White Dragon’ Sting Eucliffe and ‘Shadow Dragon’ Rogue Cheney from Sabertooth. These exciting new additions to the cast join the previously announced Natsu Dragneel, Lucy Heartfilia, Gray Fullbuster, Erza Scarlet, Wendy Marvell, Gajeel Redfox and Juvia Lockser – all battle-ready with powerful magic abilities. With more than 12 playable characters available, players will able to form a dream team with FAIRY TAIL members and their rivals and set off on an adventure like never before.

FAIRY TAIL is available now for pre-order through select retailers.

Thanks to the feedback received from the great number of players of Rise: Race The Future, on Nintendo SWITCH, VD-DEV wanted to create a new patch to make the overall racing experience even better.

Perfecting Rise: Race The Future is our current goal as it is considered one of the best racing games on the Nintendo Switch.

The new patch includes the following:

- HD rumble with sensitivity settings:
Each surface has its own type of vibration. When the boost is used the controller also vibrates differently as well as for each type of situation, for instance when after a jump or if being pushed by another car. You can adjust the intensity differently for Handled mode and TV / Tabletop (Settings menu).

- Stability setting for each vehicle with a range of 0% to 100%:
The gameplay of Rise is a mix between pure arcade and real handling behaviour based on an advanced physics engine. To please the casual gamers as well as the racing fans, a fantastic new stability setting has been introduced. Basically the player is able to tweak each car to his taste while still keeping its main characteristics.

Do you want a car a bit more powerful but heavier to make it easier and more stable to drive? Then just set the Stability to 100%!

All the players who found the gameplay too difficult to apprehend will be totally convinced now.

- Steering Sensitivity setting for each vehicle with a range of 0% to 100%:

This is very useful for the joy-con and other different type of controllers. Again the purpose is to give the players more freedom for him to feel comfortable and enjoy the game fully. The car will react slower or faster making it more manageable.

You can adjust these settings in the "Car Select” menu or directly in the race (Pause> Car Settings).

- Improved IA:
One of the main critics was that cars used to collide with each other too strongly and could jeopardise the player’s race. The new AI deals with vehicle avoidance and emergency braking to limit collision from behind. The AI vehicles break harder and detect earlier to prevent touching the player. No more frustration!

- Touchscreen interface enabled in handheld mode:
Just to add practicality to the user experience.
