Having a man scream, “HEEEEEROOOOOOOOO BANKUUUU” will never get old for me. Below is the new trailer to Hero Bank 2 and it features a load of new gameplay footage as well as colourful anime lunacy, a lot of shouting and a child being flushed down a toilet for good measure. This game has it all:
Hero Bank 2 is a turn based fighting game and will launch on 3DS on the 27th of November. It is currently Japan exclusive.
E3 2014 kicks off tomorrow and we already have some new footage of Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric for Wii U. You can check out some brand new gameplay footage below:
The first episode of SEGA Central is now live and it’s brought to you from the floor of this year’s Rezzed. The episode gives you a look at Alien Isolation, Total War: Rome II for iOS and the SEGA sponsored Leftfield Collection booth at Rezzed. Check it out below:
SEGA have just revealed a new official web-series called SEGA Central which aims to give you insider news, behind-the-scenes previews, interviews and footage of SEGA’s upcoming releases. In addition SEGA have promised retrospectives that deal with classic SEGA games like Sonic Adventure 2 and Jet Set Radio.
The series is going to be exclusive to the SEGA Europe YouTube Channel so if you’re a YouTube user you can subscribe for future episodes.
If you’re not aware of SEGA’s Japanese media franchise Sakura Wars then we might need to explain before move on: the Sakura Wars series mainly consists of a series of video games based around tactical warfare and keeping character relationships positive through a dating simulation element. The series has largely stayed Japan exclusive but has also strayed into other media like film, television, novels, manga and stage shows.
The stage show aspect is where today’s news comes from as SEGA have released an adaptation of the most recent stage show on DVD. You can see a trailer for the release below (WARNING: there is a lot of singing and overly cute voices):
UPDATE
A big thanks to Patrick Gardner on our Facebook page who has explained that this show is the first to showcase the Paris and New York Divisions of the series. The show follows the events of Sakura Wars 3 and features 3 new characters.
The Creative Assembly are going through pain-staking efforts to bring the cast of Alien Isolation to life and instead of creating virtual characters and simply hiring voice actors to voice them, they have employed a real cast of actors whose likenesses are being scanned into the game and their acting is also being motion captured. You can see a glimpse of these efforts in a new behind-the-scenes video available below:
Strange observation: all the in game characters seem to be very sweaty and I’m not really sure why.
Alien Isolation comes out on the 7th of October 2014 for PC, PS4, PS3, Xbox One and Xbox 360.
Dengeki Bunko Fighting Climax is only 6 days away for Japanese arcade gamers and SEGA have released the opening cinematic from the game on their YouTube channel.
What’s interesting is one of the characters appears in a Dreamcast-themed outfit. You can skip to 0:36 to see the outfit in question:
Dengeki Bunko Fighting Climax is a Japanese arcade exclusive title. A home console/Western release has not been confirmed at this time.
Along with yesterday’s announcement that Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed will be getting a Japanese release in May, we now have the first official Japanese trailer! Check it out:

It’s been a long time since Game Grumps have played anything SEGA-related, but recently Arin and Danny got stuck into cult trap-em-up ‘Night Trap’ for the Mega-CD. The 2 part series ends with a finale you might not have been expecting:
