This week's game release slate, covering June 22 to June 28 in both Japan and North America, is led by several high-profile titles arriving on June 25. The most prominent is "Star Fox" for Nintendo Switch 2, a remake of "Star Fox 64" that revamps the graphics, adds new movie scenes, and includes an encyclopedia of characters and planets. It is sold through the My Nintendo Store for 5,480 yen. Also launching on June 25 is "DEAD OR ALIVE 6 Last Round," a re-release of the 2019 fighting game optimized for PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC, featuring 29 playable characters, new costumes, and a photo mode. The game has a free-to-play base version and a 6,380 yen full version. "Dragon Quest X: Children of Time Online" arrives the same day, an expansion pack that concludes the main story of the MMORPG, adding a new setting, a Storm Kaiser job class, and new equipment. Other notable June 25 releases include the RPG "Villion: Code" (9,680 yen), produced by Megami Tensei creator Kouji Okada, and the card game "Medarot Card Robottle RB" (5,478 yen).

The three outlets covering this week's releases-4Gamer, Game Spark, and Inside-agree on the major titles and dates but differ slightly in emphasis. 4Gamer provides the most detailed descriptions for each highlighted game, including the specific new features of the "Star Fox" remake (new movie scenes, an encyclopedia) and the contents of "DEAD OR ALIVE 6 Last Round" (29 characters, new photo mode). Game Spark and Inside both list a much broader catalog of smaller indie and niche titles, such as "Deer & Boy," "Wanderstop," and "Citizen Sleeper - Nintendo Switch 2 Edition," which 4Gamer omits. All three sources note that "Devil May Cry 5 Devil Hunter Edition" for Nintendo Switch 2 released on June 23, a few days before the main June 25 wave. The price points vary significantly across the major releases, from the free-to-play base of "DEAD OR ALIVE 6 Last Round" to the 9,680 yen premium RPG "Villion: Code." The sources also list multiple platform versions for each title, with "Villion: Code" appearing on PS5, PS4, Nintendo Switch, and Nintendo Switch 2.
