Rumor: Nintendo and Monolith Soft Take Ownership of Xenosaga IP From Bandai Namco

Rumors suggest Nintendo and Monolith Soft have acquired the Xenosaga intellectual property from Bandai Namco, spurred by MOMO’s cameo in Xenoblade Chronicles 2: Nintendo Switch 2 Edition and licensing-page changes. Bandai Namco has reportedly removed Xenosaga from its licenses and the Xenosaga-related Baten Kaitos listing, while Nintendo’s store page for the upcoming edition credits only Nintendo and Monolith Soft; Pied Piper on Steam indicates Bandai Namco’s ongoing involvement with a spinoff, leaving the exact deal timeline unclear.

Ace Combat 8 Soars Past Expectations in Hands-On Preview

At Summer Game Fest 2026, the author went hands-on with Ace Combat 8: Wings Of Theve and came away impressed by the aircraft visuals and flight feel, even as the demo posed a challenging, timing-heavy mission sequence; a rocky start gave way to steady progress, and the overall takeaway is that Ace Combat 8 looks set to deliver a strong, long-awaited entry with sharp squad banter and satisfying aerial combat when it launches in October.

Activist Investors Push FromSoftware Toward Self-Publishing Elden Ring

An activist investor group led by Oasis Management is pressuring Kadokawa to let FromSoftware self-publish its games, arguing Bandai Namco’s publishing deals dilute Kadokawa’s value despite Elden Ring’s global success. The bid targets Kadokawa’s CEO Takeshi Natsuno with a June 24 general meeting vote looming. While Oasis notes FromSoftware could face rights hurdles for certain franchises, the studio’s own The Duskbloods shows a potential self-publishing path, even as fans worry Oasis might meddle in development and strategy.
