FF7 Revelation ends its story clean; Capcom fixes Dragonsplague

The director of Final Fantasy 7 Revelation has confirmed the base game will wrap up the story in full, with any post-launch DLC positioned strictly as spin-off content rather than a continuation — a clear signal to players who felt burned by episodic storytelling. That clarity will matter as the title carries enormous expectations. Separately, Nintendo is getting a Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave Direct this week, giving the series its own dedicated showcase ahead of what appears to be an imminent release.

Capcom is reworking one of Dragon's Dogma 2's most divisive mechanics: Dragonsplague is being redesigned so players can, in the studio's words, enjoy the strategic decisions they originally envisioned for it. The change acknowledges that the system, as shipped, frustrated more than it engaged. Digital Foundry also weighed in on Xenoblade Chronicles 2 running on Switch 2, with Nintendo Life carrying the full tech breakdown of how the RPG holds up on the hardware.

A charity bundle supporting laid-off developers has cleared $100,000 in three days, saving buyers over $1,000 in software. Palworld is heading to mobile as an online MMORPG, with a 2026 launch window set. And Attack on Titan 3 has locked in a December release on PS5, deliberately sidestepping the window around GTA 6. A viral Steam game meanwhile made $1.3 million in sales but left its creator with just $2,000 after mass refunds — a stark illustration of the platform's refund exposure for solo developers.
