BITE

BITE is a set of unrelated works sharing a name, and the most recent stories concern an Xbox Series X-BITE crocodile build that Microsoft unveiled on November 3 and a Famima Print bromide run using AMPTAKxCOLORS's "BITE" music video art from November 10 to December 7, 2026. AMPTAKxCOLORS is one of three STPR acts sold through that print run.

The stories filed under BITE do not describe one property. They describe several works that share the word, and the freshest coverage sits with two of them. Microsoft unveiled the Xbox Series X-BITE on November 3, a crocodile sculpture over 5 feet long built by John Nolan Studio that houses an Xbox Series X inside its body. It plays games, Microsoft recommends display use, and one US winner gets it by lottery. Days later, AMPTAKxCOLORS's "BITE" appeared in a FamilyMart print run alongside Strawberry Prince and Knight X, with 13 bromide types for AMPTAKxCOLORS and sales from November 10 to December 7, 2026 at 200 yen for L-size and 300 yen for 2L-size.

The other BITE threads are separate. ULTRANOVA Entertainment announced Blue Bite on September 10 for PC via Steam and home consoles in winter 2026, then showed it at Tokyo Game Show 2026 with no playable demo, six heroines, and a massage healing mechanic. Killing Bites reached the first part of its final chapter in October, with the 27th volume published June 29.

Killing Bites also connects to a second story: writer Shinya Murata launched Shinoblade with artist Daichi Matsuse in Manga BAR. BiteMe Games showed MMO98 and Silicon Architect at OSAKA INDIE GAMES SUMMIT 2026 and announced Desktop Island: Idle Together! for PC in December. Bitewing Games opened a Baba Is You board game Kickstarter on September 15.
