It turns out that the Fire Emblem game that leaked several months ago is real after all, and will be called Fire Emblem Engage. During today's Nintendo Direct, Engage will focus on a new protagonist, Alear, who has a real wild hairstyle. Alear is known as a "divine dragon," and is a member of a royal family that was once revered as deities, but he's been asleep for one thousand years when he awakens at the start of the game. Notably, characters in Engage appear to be paired in some spiritual way with past Fire Emblem heroes, with Alear paired with Marth. Sigurd and Celica also made appearances. Fire Emblem Engage appears to include elements from Fire Emblem: Three Houses such as its town building and relationship elements as well. It's planned for release on January 20, 2023, and a "Divine Edition" with collectibles will also be on sale. Fire Emblem Engage first leaked back in June, with photos of the protagonist's strange red and blue hair an...

Fatal Frame: Mask of the Lunar Eclipse, the Wii entry in the famous survival horror series, is finally coming to the West for the first time. Announced as part of today's Nintendo Direct, a localised version of Mask of the Lunar Eclipse will be available on Switch early in 2023. This entry follows Ruka Minazuki who, after mysteriously disappearing as a child, explores an abandoned hospital in search of her lost memories. The hospital is, of course, full of all kinds of nasties, which can be repelled with Fatal Frame's classic tool, the camera obscura. The original version of this fourth game in the Fatal Frame series was released in Japan back in 2008. While a European release was announced, it never made it to the West. This new Switch version, then, marks quite the event for Fatal Frame fans. For more, catch up on everything announced during today's Nintendo Direct in our roundup right here .

Ubisoft's biggest games will now be sold at the $70 price point – something the company had so far resisted . During an interview with Axios , Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot confirmed that the company’s upcoming AAA games will now be sold at $70 – a price hike that’s in line with the current industry standard. “Some of the games will come at the same price as the competition,” he confirmed. “The big AAA games will come at $70.” Skull & Bones is the first of these games to be set at the new $70 price point. Amazon has already adopted the new pricing structure with both PS5 and Xbox Series X|S versions of Skull & Bones available to pre-order for $69.99. However, the Ubisoft store itself lists the game at just $59.99 – you can save yourself a cool $10 by pre-ordering the game direct from Ubisoft. At least, at the moment. Whether or not Ubisoft updates the store in line with their new prices remains to be seen. So, if you’re interested in Skull & Bones, you might want ...
