As a big fan of NTE, I know the character list is always changing – that’s just how Gacha games work! I’m keeping track of who’s currently available to unlock. This article is basically my way of documenting all the playable characters, and I’ll also note which Espers used to be available in past banners but aren’t around right now.

He wants a really open and creative workspace where they can come up with fresh ideas and build truly unforgettable gaming experiences.

According to Rhys Elliott at Alinea Analytics, Saros sold roughly 300,000 copies in its first two weeks. While a solid number, this is slightly behind the sales of Housemarque’s previous game, Returnal, during its initial release.

However, Elliott believes the game will eventually become profitable, as nearly 80% of Returnal players also purchased Saros. Positive reviews and its status as a new PlayStation exclusive are currently driving sales.

A detailed post on 4chan claimed that a new Batman game, inspired by Batman Beyond, was in development at Rocksteady.

The latest information clarifies that the game’s protagonist is named Anika, not Elsa, which was a temporary name used during development.
