Welcome to this week's Games Update, our weekly summary featuring all new product arrivals from the last seven days. We have a couple of cool Japanese games coming today, let's have a look at these before we get to our usual summary of the week.

Try something that is both modern and retro at the same time. Dot sprites that appeared in the retro games are rendered into 3D.

In a world constructed with tiny blocks, you are to take up your sword and set off to do chivalrous things.

Blast things apart and see the tiny blocks blow off into all sorts of directions. Both familiar and fresh, this game will bring a warm fuzzy feeling to the old time gamers and a new sort of exhilaration to the new ones.

The old is the new new. Relive your own, your older siblings, or even your parents' childhood:

Runeheim is ruled by two empires, Selestia and Deltiana. These two countries have been at war with each other and both suffered serious consequences. When the emperors die, the two countries enter a truce, sealed by the exchange of royal hostages.

During his stay in Seletia, Prince Dylan of Deltiana met Princess Fara and they question the reason behind the war. 10 years passed in a flash and the princes were returned to their respective countries.

As soon as Dylan returned to Deltiana, the war restarts. Is history about to repeat itself?

Epic storyline, endearing characters and captivating gameplay, this is the ultimate summoning experience you have been waiting for.

Grand Theft Auto Episodes from Liberty City is the package of two action games "The Ballad of Gay Tony” and “The Lost and The Damned”. Get deeper into this glamourous city of crime and carve your path to the top. Blood and bullets, love and betrayal, unscrupulousness is the only way to live.

There are two games that deal with dragons. In Dragon Age: Origins, you will be reborn into whatever family you choose and see how the differences affect the rest of your life. In Ego Draconis, you adventure as a Dragon Hunter to rid the lands of the great lizards, claim the land of Rivellion as the legendary Dragon Lord.

There are more things going on in the fantasy worlds than ever. Dissidia Universal Tuning is released this Sunday with Persona 3. Face off with all the warriors from one of the most beautiful RPG series of all time and enjoy the English voice acting.

Save the worlds as a girl MC and fight your way up the tower of Tartarus. The different MCs will bring out the different sides of the story, you don't know the full world of Persona 3 until you have maxed all social links with both MCs.

Besides the fighting and finding true selves, there are things you can enjoy with your family and friends. Get an EyePet, let him learn new tricks and reward him with the new toys of your own design. Creativity cultivation and playing come hand in hand.
