Forza Horizon 6 players in Japan say they’re getting banned over itasha paint jobs. One: “They show absolutely no respect for the culture they used as the game’s main selling point.” Game’s set in Japan. Anime cars are the point. Another: “Some were genuinely against the rules, but the vast majority were just regular itasha paint jobs.” WIP garage drafts and in-game photos of the cars are getting hit too. Players are calling it a mass-report campaign. Hardware bans. Fans say the code of conduct is written “as vague as possible.” Turn 10 updated the Forza rules. Human review. Report count doesn’t change the queue. Playground still hasn’t spoken.

A little recap from Anime Impulse as Remielle 🤍💞 It was really fun to stop by the Zenless Zone Zero booth and capture some photos with the official itasha~ ✨ @zenlesszonezero @AnimeImpulse #ZenlessZoneZero# #Remielle# #ANIMEImpulse# #Itasha# #コスピレ#

Square Enix has announced a new official picture book prequel for Final Fantasy IX called Vivi and Grandpa’s Memories for the Sky. The 44-page book will be released on May 19. It was written by the original game’s event director Kazuhiko Aoki with illustrations by character designer Toshiyuki Itahana. It tells the story of young Vivi from his first meeting with Grandpa Quan after getting caught on a fishing line and learning magic, up to the events before he leaves for Alexandria, and connects to the upcoming Final Fantasy IX Magic: The Gathering set.
