The Attack on Titan anime series is coming to an end, and Activision wants to cash in on its popularity. Ten Attack on Titan equipment will be added to Call of Duty: Vanguard and Warzone Pacific as part of a bundle that will be released on January 20th.

A new character (Isabella Rosario Dulnuan Reyes), her favored submachine gun, and additions to both gameplay and goods in Vanguard's Zombies mode are among the next season improvements. The appropriate updates for Attack on Titan content will be released a week ahead of schedule, on January 12th at midnight Eastern time for Vanguard and January 13th for Warzone.

Shining Resonance Refrain Coming To The West This Summer

SEGA has revealed that Shining Resonance Refrain is heading to the west this summer on PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch and PC. The game tells the tale of sword-wielding Yuma and his friends as they fight the Empire. This marks the return of the Shining series to the West for the first time in a decade. Here’s all the details you need to know:

Remastered with New Refrain Mode

Shining Resonance Refrain remasters the original Shining Resonance, previously released on PlayStation® 3 only in Japan, and features dual audio with English and Japanese voices. In addition to all of the original’s DLC, now included as part of the base “Original Mode,” Shining Resonance Refrain packs a new “Refrain Mode,” unlocking the Imperial Princess Excella and Dragonslayer Jinas as party members for a new experience – just be sure to save this for your second playthrough to avoid any spoilers!

With real-time action combat, it will be important to utilize each party member’s unique abilities and strengths while deepening relationships with each character. Through events and dates, get to know your party members to unlock their full potential on the battlefield! Depending on the bonds of the characters, “Resonance” may occur between them, providing a new level of support, leading to victory.

Master the B.A.N.D. System

Dragoneers wield Armonics, ancient weapon-instruments, in order to perform mystical and powerful Rune Songs. Once you build enough BPM (Battle Performance Mana), your party will be able to perform a session through the B.A.N.D. system. Depending on which song you play and which character you set at the center, your party will be able to indulge in various beneficial effects. Certain characters may even perform the song in a special costume!

Draconic Launch Edition

Those who pre-order Shining Resonance Refrain on PS4, Xbox One X, and Nintendo Switch, will receive the game in a collectible metal slipcase, featuring character artwork of Excella, Sonia, and Kirika.
