Bandai Namco today announced that it is partnering with Harebrained Schemes to be the console publisher for their PC indie game, Necropolis; bringing the game to the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
In order to focus on delivering a consistent experience for all platforms, Harebrained Schemes has decided to move the game’s original PC-only release date of March 17th. Instead, Necropolis will now simultaneously ship for PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One this summer, with an exact date to be announced in the near-future. Harebrained Schemes will still self-publish the title on Steam.
In Necropolis, you play as a nameless adventurer attempting to escape a living, magical dungeon that reconstructs itself each time you play, with only one way out – down. Craft, equip, explore, and fight to stay alive as you delve deeper and face ever-greater threats in the twisting halls and endless chasms of the Necropolis. Have no doubt; you’re going to die – often! – but you’ll improve your combat skills, available upgrades, and dungeon know-how with every playthrough, bringing you one step closer to the exit.

The limited “Endless Summer” retail release of Senran Kagura Estival Versus will contain a 108-page art book packed full of artwork from the Senran Kagura series, a randomly chosen set of ten 2.5” by 3.5” holographic “pin-up cards” featuring one of the six factions of buxom beauties each in two distinct poses, and a 2-disc soundtrack containing 70 total tracks.
To coincide with this announcement, XSEED Games has revealed the series’ newest team of badass beauties, the Overseers of the Festival, in a new trailer. This new team of Shinobi fighters – Sayuri, Ryōki, Renka, Hanabi, and Kafuru, who each possess a unique Shinobi Transformation and utilize powerful Ninja Arts – resides in a strange, sunny island paradise dimension that the heroines of Senran Kagura are whisked away to, and operate the mystical Kagura Millennium Festival that beckons new guests to the island.

2K and Gearbox Software today introduced Shayne and Aurox, Whiskey Foxtrot, and Kelvin, three new playable heroes for the upcoming hero-shooter Battleborn, which launches on PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC on May 3rd.
Shayne and Aurox, Whiskey Foxtrot, and Kelvin are the weird oddities of the Battleborn heroes, and like all Battleborn, are available to play in both competitive multiplayer matches, as well as the game’s Story Mode – which can be played singleplayer, co-op up to 5 players, or 2-player splitscreen. First in the trenches, Whiskey Foxtrot is an offbeat and imperfect facsimile of a soldier. Using scavenged armor and jerry-rigged weapons, everything about Whiskey Foxtrot just seems “off,” but his homemade UPR-SL3 tactical rifle, sticky bombs, and scrap canon can help turn the tide of any battle. At first glance, Kelvin appears to be a hulking ice golem, but is in fact an entire microorganism civilization that, together, form a single sentient being that smashes, chomps and freezes its enemies for the survival of the species. Another unlikely team-up, Shayne was already a bratty teenage girl at the end of the universe with nothing to lose, but her bond with the space creature known as Aurox has made her nearly unstoppable. Joined at the hip, these symbiotic furies strive to utterly demolish their foes through a mixture of brute force and stealth.
