Aikatsu Stars will be free to download

Bandai Namco today announced that Aikatsu Stars! First Appeal will release on the 3DS eShop this Summer as a free to download title. I assume money will be made from the Aikatsu cards that are compatible with the title. The game will be a rhythm title with fashion and housing gameplay. The teaser site is at http://free.aikatsu.bn-ent.net/ with the promo video for all versions of Aikatsu Stars at http://youtu.be/8I4M20Ofqu8

New 3DS Aikatsu game announced

Yet another Aikatsu game (the fifth) has been announced for 3DS alongside a new season of the anime, movie and arcade game. The 3DS version of Aikatsu! Stars will interlock with the arcade version. No release date as of yet but expect a release towards the end of 2016 by Bandai Namco Entertainment. More information (including announcement video) at http://www.aikatsu.com/
