    That time Sakurai made a shooter.

    Masahiro Sakurai is best-known for his work on the Smash Bros. and Kirby series, but during the early days of the Nintendo 3DS he worked on something very different: a revival of Kid Icarus. However, in his latest YouTube video, the designer explains how the game actually started out as an attempt to do something new in the shooter space.

    Atlus has released another trailer for the Persona 3 remake, which most notably gives us a taste of the English voice cast. It does not, however, include a next-gen evoker in action. The remake is set to launch in early 2024 — and you can read more on why Persona 3 is so important right here.

    Toss a coin.

    We’re near the end of Henry Cavill’s run as Geralt in Netflix’s The Witcher. The first volume of season 3 is streaming now, with the conclusion dropping on July 27th.

    Elsewhere, Apple’s post-apocalyptic mystery Silo just wrapped up its first season, Nintendo released a new party game for the Switch with support for up to 100 players, and the paranormal whodunit Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective is available on modern consoles.

    If you’re an NSO subscriber, a handful of Genesis classics are now available to check out — including the Zelda-like Landstalker.

    They turned the battle bus into a Transformer.

    Fortnite’s recent collaboration with Transformers has come to its logical conclusion: the iconic battle bus is now a robot in disguise. No word on whether it’s an Autobot or a Decepticon.
