Legacy Umamusume Daily Borrows Nearly Double Worldwide Cygames announced that the global version of Umamusume: Pretty Derby now allows more daily borrows for Legacy Umamusume characters via our friends list. Previously, we were limited to up to three per day. The in-game announcement confirmed that on January 16, 2026, starting at about 3pm/5pm ET, that will go up to five. There’s nothing that we’ll need to change to access the larger number of Legacy Umamusume borrows in the game. This will happen after the daily update. In addition to being able to borrow up to five times, the first instance each day will be free. Typically, we need to pay Monies, the currency we earn by going through the Career or daily races, to borrow a Veteran Umamusume. This cost varies depending on if the friend you’re borrowing from is in your club and the rank of the character. The first time, regardless of those factors, won’t cost a thing. Since you only need to do one Career run per day for the daily mission rewards, this means there’d be no cost. This comes as new Umamusume banners launched. Fine Motion is a Mile and Medium Pace Chaser who works best on Turf. She’s now available as a playable three-star character, following her previously appearing on a notable Wit Support Card. The newest SSR Stamina Support Card is Manhattan Cafe. It features a means of getting the Stamina Siphon skill from a Career Event. Both will join the general pool after those banners end on January 23, 2026. They follow the Christmas Oguri Cap and Biwa Hayahide alts. Here’s the Fine Motion trailer . https://www.youtube.com/shorts/fmZOwHPTqy0 Umamusume: Pretty Derby is available for the PC and mobile devices worldwide.

Yakuza Kiwami 3 Demo Confirmed Sony announced via the PlayStation Blog that Sega will release a demo for Yakuza Kiwami 3 & Dark Ties , the updated remake of the third game with an entirely new Yoshitaka Mine storyline. However, we don’t know when this might appear. It was only confirmed at an event that there will be a means for people to try the adventure before buying it. The announcement came in a PlayStation Blog preview about the game. While the article did mention both the writer experiencing the Kazuma Kiryu Yakuza Kiwami 3 and Mine Dark Ties segments, it didn’t note if that will be possible in the upcoming demo. It only noted Sega will make an announcement regarding it. It’s actually pretty rare for Yakuza and Like a Dragon series games to get demos. Only two are immediately available right now, and those are both for spin-off games. One is a combat demo for Like a Dragon: Ishin , which is set in 1860s Japan, involves the Shinsengumi, and features a Ryoma Sakamoto that looks suspiciously like Kazuma Kiryu. The other is Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii , the Goro Majima game set around the same period as the eighth Yakuza game Infinite Wealth . Yakuza Kiwami 3 and Dark Ties will come to the Switch 2, PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X, and PC on February 12, 2026. The original game is on the PS3, PS4, Xbox One, and PC.

New Honkai: Star Rail Planarcadia Characters Teased HoYoVerse took to social media to share an array of new images teasing characters we’ll see in the new Planarcadia world and storyline after the Honkai: Star Rail 4.0 update. In addition to Sparxie and Yao Guang , who will be the first two we’ll see after the patch, two Stellaron Hunters appear alongside three characters. The images also teased that this update will involve the Aeon Aha, the Elation path, and perhaps both The Masked Fools and Genius Society. The two Stellaron Hunters who will apparently play a part in Honkai: Star Rail 4.0 are Silver Wolf and Blade. This comes after 3.4 buffs for the characters. Both of them seem to appear in new forms suggesting alts, just like how Sparxie is the SP version of th existing character Sparkle. Three entirely new Honkai: Star Rail characters appear in these Planarcadia Aha teaser images. They are Ashveil, Evanescia, and Nihilux. There are no details about either of the three, and we haven’t heard any references to them yet. Here are all the new pieces of Aha art for the four new Honkai: Star Rail Planarcadia characters, Sparkle alt Sparxie, and new takes on Stellaron Hunters Blade and Silver Wolf. Images via HoYoVerse Honkai: Star Rail is available for the PS5, PC, and mobile devices. The post New Honkai: Star Rail Planarcadia Characters Teased appeared first on Siliconera .

The Hundred Line is Actually 2 Games in 1 Too Kyo Games revealed that Hundred Line -Last Defense Academy- is actually two games in one, and it also showed off the full key visual of both games. The soundtrack for the game is out on streaming services, too, and you can pre-order the director’s edition of the soundtrack via Aniplex Online. The first key visual of the game uses red and gray, whereas the new key visual for the "second game" is more blue. This visual features more characters, including the Undying Flame Boy at the back of the group. A limited physical edition using the Hundred Line 1&2 Pack key visual will appear in stores on April 24, 2026. Though there was some confusion on social media about whether Hundred Line 2 is a sequel or a DLC, 2 actually means Routes 1-100. After beating the first hundred days (Route 0), you can unlock Hundred Line 2 , which is reflected in the main menu and such. You can watch the new trailer for Hundred Line 2 here (again, this only means Routes 1-100): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yRaA18UBboo A future update for the game will also let you skip directly to 2 . This is not recommended for first-time players, though. Routes 1-100 pick up directly from the end of Route 0. It's akin to starting from The Return of the King without watching the first two movies. As for the Hundred Line Original Soundtrack Director’s Edition , it’ll come with a sticker page featuring the character chibis. This bonus goes for all storefronts. The soundtrack costs 5500 JPY ($34.80), and it contains 88 tracks. It’ll come out on April 16, 2026. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vU2iZI_BKmw Hundred Line -Last Defense Academy- is readily available on the Nintendo Switch and Windows PC.
