Now, you may be wondering how you missed that. And by all accounts, it's because these regular livestreams are seemingly in Japanese (or at the very least not available on the official English-language account). However, Nexon are eager for this latest announcement to get across.

And considering it concerns the upcoming 4.5th anniversary celebrations, that's no surprise. This anniversary promises to be jam-packed with a host of new content to enjoy, including both in-game and real-world experiences. For the moment, exact details aren't available, but they may be forthcoming.

A real anime event

Naturally, now's the time to swot up on our

, or book your tickets if you fancy attending the event. Anime Expo 2026 is shaping up to be one to watch for mobile fans. At least for those of you who follow anime-inspired entries such as

Chaos Zero Nightmare

, which is also set to make an appearance.

However, Blue Archive itself is set for some major reveals as part of a panel taking place on July 3rd. While many attendees will be focused on their exhibition stand, it might be worth keeping your eyes and ears peeled because no doubt this panel might reveal some key details of the upcoming anniversary event in Blue Archive.

Game of Thrones: Dragonfire ties into season three finale with limited-time event

After the disastrous reception of the Game of Thrones finale way back in 2019, it seemed as if the franchise was done on television. But after the dramatic success of both A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms and House of the Dragon, it's no surprise Game of Thrones: Dragonfire has been tying back into these newfound high points! And if you've been following House of the Dragon, you can now enjoy a limited-time event, available until August 24th, set to tie into the season three finale of the show. This event will see all the previously limited dragons return to the Hatchery, each modelled on their appearance in the show. ...

Lil' Guardsman is a Papers Please-style deduction adventure with you as an unlikely town guard

While Papers, Please invoked a really grim and dystopian style of gaming, for better or for worse, many other developers have taken a slightly lighter view on the subject. Case in point: the upcoming deductive sim Lil' Guardsman, which is set to release on iOS and Android this winter, puts you in the shoes of the bane of all adventurers. In Lil' Guardsman, you play as the twelve-year-old Lil, tasked with covering your father's shift as, unsurprisingly, a guardsman at the gate of a city called the Sprawl. You'll need to interrogate various visitors, ranging from wizards to cyclopes, and decide whether to let them in, jail them or deal with them in some other way. ...

Castlevania: Grimoire of Souls set to close service in autumn

Well, it's about that time again. Yes, sadly we have to report that another fan-favourite mobile game is set to shut its doors. This time, the victim is none other than Castlevania: Grimoire of Souls. And unfortunately, you don't have long to jump in and have a go, because end-of-service is set for September 3rd. A side-scrolling platformer in the vein of the classic Castlevania games, especially Symphony of the Night, Grimoire of Souls already has an interesting history. Slated to shutter back in 2020, Grimoire of Souls would instead make its way exclusively to Apple Arcade without any monetisation elements. ...
