FFXIV CERO Age Rating Goes up in Japan Square Enix announced that the Japanese CERO age rating for FFXIV will change with the upcoming Patch 7.5. The current CERO rating for the game is CERO C, and after the changes in the upcoming patch the rating will change to a CERO D, the second highest in the rating organization. The company specified that the reason for the change in CERO age rating for FFXIV comes from the use of the Group Pose feature. Under the current CERO C rating, the developers would have to add restriction to the feature. In order to keep the freedom currently available with the Group Pose feature, the company decided to accept the change to the CERO D rating. However, Square Enix didn’t specify what would these restrictions entail. Square Enix also confirmed that this change will only affect the age rating of Final Fantasy XIV in Japan, and that the content of Final Fantasy XIV will remain unaffected. However, players under the age of 17 will need their parents or guardians to review the changes to the rating once it arrives with the 7.5 patch. For those unfamiliar with the CERO rating system, players ages 15 and up can play titles with a rating of CERO C. As for the CERO D rating, this means only players aged 17 and up can play, and that some of the CERO D games include adult material. The age rating above CERO D and the highest is CERO Z. It is only used for games that contain strong adult material, such as gore, nudity, and sexual content, and it’s illegal for minors to purchase video games with this rating. Final Fantasy XIV is available for the PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X, and PC, and the 7.5 Part 1 patch release date is set for April 28, 2026.

The company directed people who wish to continue playing to the PC and mobile sequel Shadowverse: Worlds Beyond and Shadowverse: Evolve physicalcard game . We already had some idea that the end of service could be coming for Shadowverse eventually, as Cygames already announced it would start to wind things down in March 2024 . At that point, it said the July 2024 release of the “ Heroes of Shadowverse ” cards would be the last set to launch, said the Battle Pass seasons would come every three months, and explained the types of Rotations and events people would see going forward. The final schedule covers the last Rotations we’ll see leading up to the end and confirms when the final battle pass debuts. Basically, it’ll be business as usual. Here’s what people can expect in the game between March 25, 2026 and June 30, 2026. March 25, 2026: Crystal sales end. March 31, 2026: Battle Pass Season 23 starts, with Premium Pass for it available for everyone. The Throwback Rotation card pool will reset. April 30, 2026: Throwback Rotation card pool resets. May 31, 2026: Throwback Rotation card pool resets. June 30, 2026: Shadowverse service ends. The follow-up Shadowverse: Worlds Beyond is relatively new. That launched on PCs and mobile devices in June 2025. It plays in an almost identical fashion, though the system allows you to collect and use Super Evolution Points to Super Evolve to boost attack, boost defense, get rush and knockback effects, and get temporary protection from damage and effects.

NIS’ Horror Farming Sim Village in the Shade Debuts in 2026 Back during a Nintendo Direct in July 2025 , NIS announced a horror farming sim called Honogurashi no Niwa, and now it confirmed the game will appear worldwide on multiple platforms under the name Village in the Shade. NIS America said it will debut in Fall 2026, months after its July 30, 2026 launch in Japan. In addition to Nintendo’s Switch and Switch 2, it will be on the PS5 and PC too. The Steam page is even live and updated to reflect the reveal. Village in the Shade features the same sort of artistic direction and atmosphere as the previous NIS America horror games in the Yomawari line, and the approach seems similar in the farming sim since night time is designed to be dangerous and it’s set in a small, Japanese town. The company teased that it could be as scary or relaxing as someone would like. As a resident of Kagatsu, your goal is to maintain a farm and (ideally) follow the rules. That means staying in town, getting home before night falls, and being part of the community by taking part in festivals. However, if someone does venture outside of the village or stays up late, they’ll encounter supernatural and scary elements. Here’s the first English trailer that shows what to expect from it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cc_F--CxTq0 Physical copies of the game will be available, and the NIS America online storefront already has a product listing live for a limited edition. It will come with an art book, a soundtrack CD, an acrulic block showing the village gates and town, five pins, and it looks like a sheet of stickers. That costs $89.99. Here’s the preliminary photo of that: Image via NIS America Village in the Shade will come to the Switch, Switch 2, PS5, and PC worldwide in Fall 2026, following a Japanese launch under the name Honogurashi no Niwa on July 30, 2026.
