Dragon Quest Heroes director talks about the possibility of Dragon Quest Heroes III

In an interview with Nintendo Everything, Dragon Quest Heroes director Tomohiko Sho talked about the possibility of a 3rd game in the series. Sho is a director at Koei Tecmo so ultimately, the chances of a 3rd game happening in the series are up to Square Enix. Here’s the excerpt from the interview:

“Obviously this is a Square Enix property so we can’t really say anything, but I have kind of mentioned to them before, ‘Shouldn’t we consider a third entry?’

So we’ve been talking a little about maybe putting out a third entry, but really the big thing is between I and II there were so many improvements made. If we were going to go from II to III, what else can we put in to really impress the players who played both games that will get them really excited and really emotionally moved by it? So there are a lot of hurdles. What would it be that we can put into the game? That’s still something we’re not sure how to do yet.”

Dragon Quest Heroes I and II are available now for PS4, PC and Switch. However, the Switch versions were never localized. If a 3rd entry in the series comes, we hope it has a worldwide release for all fans to enjoy. Stay tuned at Final Weapon for the latest Japanese gaming news!

Rainbow Six Siege Operation Shifting Tides releasing tomorrow on Xbox One, PS4, and PC

The final set of new operators and rework of the map Theme Park will release tomorrow December 3rd for console and PC at these specific times below:

Operation Shifting Tides will introduce two new operators alongside a complete rework of the map Theme Park.

Operator Kali is an attacker that will wield a dangerous weapon that can breach barricades and hatches in a single shot, and create big holes in breakable walls. The LV is its under-barrel, and it can be used at the same time as the CSRX 300’s scopes.

The LV is not your typical explosive. Just like the rifle, it can breach barricades and hatches, but it can also destroy Castle’s Armor Panels. These are not its main functions, however.

Its role is to destroy gadgets with a light explosion within a set radius. When used on a breakable wall, it will create a hole slightly smaller than what the sniper rifle would do. When shot at a reinforced wall, however, it simply lodges in surface.

In either case, it destroys all gadgets on both sides of breakable and reinforced surfaces. This makes it especially effective when played in tandem with a hard breach Operator like Thermite or Hibana.

The second operator arriving tomorrow is defender Wamai.

Wamai’s gadget changes the game when it comes to ordnance suppression. Where his colleagues can disable and destroy, he redirects.

The Mag-NET System is a thrown, adhesive gadget. It sticks to surfaces and waits. Its function is to attract an opponent’s projectile to its position, and then self-destruct to detonate that projectile.

This way, not only can Wamai make Attackers’ grenades and projectile gadgets useless, he can also use strategic placement to turn those projectiles against them. There’s nothing quite like a commandeered stun or frag grenade to turn the tide in Wamai’s favor.

Starting with one Mag-NET, Wamai regularly gains an additional charge up to a maximum of five. Make sure to place them wisely, as they can be destroyed with a single hit should they be spotted.

As Modern Warfare continues to climb the ranks of one of the best Call of Duty games to release in quite some time, fans of the series have been heavily requesting a new feature for its popular 2v2 online mode Gunfight.

Many users took to Twitter to ask if we would eventually see a 3v3 or 1v1 option for Gunfight, and they got their answer courtesy of Infinity Ward’s Co-Design Director of Multiplayer Joe Cecot.

Responding to a tweet directed at Cecot about the possibility of a 3v3 in Gunfight, he says ”at some point, also 1v1!”

Looks like now we’ll just have to wait for more information on the upcoming features and a potential release window.  Would you play a 3v3 or 1v1 in Gunfight?  Let us know!
