jp Guilty Gear -Strive-

Guilty Gear -Strive-After being announced for June and then postponed due to the COVID crisis, Guilty Gear -Strive- is finally released in Japanese arcades. It is released on Sega's ALL.Net P-ras MULTI Version 3. Arc System Works has taken particular care with the game's graphics, which are beautiful: the characters' animation is perfect and they even display different expressions depending on the situation. 16 characters are already available and more will be added in future updates: Sol Badguy, Ky Kiske, May, Faust, Potemkin, Chipp Zanuff, Zato-ONE, Millia Rage, Axl Low, Anji Mito, I-No, Leo Whitefang, Ramlethal Valentine, Nagoriyuki, Giovanna (a brand new "entry-level" character to help new players find their way in the game) and Goldlewis Dickinson (a new character that was added with Season Pass1 of the home version). Sol Badguy's story continues in Guilty Gear -Strive-: after defeating Universal Will, he was finally able to enjoy a moment of peace until he received some terrible news. Asuka R. Kreutz, known as "That Man", the worst criminal in history who created the Gears and started the Crusades, has surrendered to the US government. Once his friend, it was he who turned him into a Gears. Sol is determined to find out Asuka's true intentions. The gameplay has been renewed from the other games in the series. The 5 traditional buttons are still present but a Dash button has been added. The Blitz Shield Attack, Danger Time, Dead Angle Attack and Instant Kill have been dropped. Other techniques such as Throw Breaks, Overdrive Attacks or Psych Burst are still there but slightly revised. A new technique is now available: Wall-Break. When a character is in a corner and takes damage, each attack on the cornered character damages the wall, cracking it. By continuing the attack, the wall can be broken, causing a stage transition, ending the combo, and giving the attacker a temporary positive bonus. Guilty Gear -Strive- features different game modes: National Battle, In-store Batte and Single (training, arcade and survival).

jp Mobile Suit Gundam - Senjo no Kizuna II

Mobile Suit Gundam - Senjo no Kizuna IIMobile Suit Gundam - Senjo no Kizuna II starts operation in Japan today. Senjo no Kizuna is a Gundam pilot simulator from Bandai Namco. This new version is even more realistic than the first one and brings a lot of new features and improvements. However, the big difference comes from the cabinet, this time it's an open cabinet with 3 screens instead of the famous POD of the first episode. The difference is mainly in the graphics. The take off is more realistic to give you a more real feeling. You can use different strategies by landing on different targets, for example an allied meeting point, a large building,... Battles take place on land and underwater. When an MS swims underwater, it makes white waves, so you can see the direction it is heading from the surface. However, it is difficult to see what is on the surface when you are in the water. During fights, the damage visible on Mobile Suits such as smoke and sparks depends on the unit's remaining physical strength, so a glance at the unit will allow you to choose an attack method based on its remaining vitality. The game interface on the cockpit screen shows altitude (ALT) and angle (ADI) instruments, the model of the MS being piloted and the three types of weapons equipped. The ARMOR gauge, which indicates the durability of the Mobile Suit, turns red as the damage increases, so you can see directly when your MS is in danger. You can choose between 4 different types of MS to develop different strategies: fighting, short range, shooting and artillery. The fighting type has the most firepower in the fighting action and the highest number of hits in the MS category. The boost is low, so be careful not to overheat when cancelling boosts. The short range type can use both shooting and fighting, and is in the front line. It can easily stop the enemy but its damage is not as high as the other MS categories. Depending on the weaponry, the shooting type can use special actions such as "Beam Charge" and "Just Shot". Customise it to suit your team and the stage. The artillery type is the only MS category that can inflict effective damage to bases. In addition to attacking the base, by using the Large MAP you can act as a command centre. Although you cannot attack the base in command mode, you can lead your friends to victory with the moves of this MS category. In addition, "MS coloring" is a new feature that allows multiple colour combinations to be applied to the same Mobile Suit. You can choose to pilot Mobile Suits such as the RX-78, the Char Zaku II, the Z'Gok or the Zaku Tank. Data from Mobile Suit Gundam - Senjo no Kizuna can be transferred to Mobile Suit Gundam - Senjo no Kizuna II.

jp Senjin Aleste

Senjin AlesteAnnounced by Sega at JAEPO 2020, Senjin Aleste is finally released today on the ALL.Net P-ras MULTI version 3. Senjin Aleste is a shooter that inherits the spirit of the famous connsole shooter series Aleste and supports a wide range of players from beginners to advanced players. It is developed by M2 Shot Triggers. Senjin Aleste is a single player game but is played as a team battle: you can use 4 different aircrafts (A->D). By grabbing replacement items brought by the item transporter during the game, you can switch aircrafts in various situations during the game. Each aircraft has its own characteristics. A: high firepower in front, but difficult to handle left and right and behind. B: respond in all directions, but it is difficult to attack in any direction. C: Wide range attack, but long range attack is not possible at low speed. D: bullet-canceling function and high defense, but the total firepower is low. The game has an "assist" mode that automatically activates power-ups when touched. To be game over, all 4 planes must be wiped out, but when a plane is hit, it automatically recovers over time, so the game only ends if all 4 planes are shot down in a short time. There are four difficulty levels for this game: Novice, Casual, Original and Expert.

Kira Kira Star Night Exa is a 8-bit platform/action game developed by the mangaka and illustrator RIKI and exA-Arcadia TEAM EXA-AM1. The story takes place in a world where a girl named Fami-chan helps her friend Paso-kun to catch all the stars falling from the sky because of a mistake of Paso-kun... so the goal of this solo game is to catch all the stars in a given time to move on to the next level. There are 9 different levels. The automatic scrolling makes it difficult. The game is played with a joystick and 2 buttons.

It is also the first horizontal game that can be played on a vertical screen without having to rotate it. Kira Kira Star Night Exa is available in Europe (Red Sun Systems) but will only be released in Japan on June 22nd.
