LiveShell X New Live Streaming System Firmware Released, an Announcement for Dashboard End of Service in May 2025.

Cerevo, an internet-connected consumer electronics manufacturer headquartered in Tokyo, is to announce a release of new firmware (Rev.2090 and Rev.3000) for its live streaming device “LiveShell X” on Monday, March 31, 2025. The firmware will include “LiveShell Studio,” which enables streaming settings to be configured via the device’s local network.

The firmware (Rev.2090 and Rev.3000) is a required update to transition from the web streaming configuration app “Dashboard,” which will no longer be available after Saturday, May 31, 2025. To continue using LiveShell X for live streaming beyond this date, you must update to both firmware (Rev.2090 and Rev.3000). If you wish to use LiveShell X for remote control after June 2025, you will need to register for “LiveShell Remote” separately after updating to the new firmware (Rev.2090 and Rev.3000).

The local mode function for LiveShell 2/LiveShell PRO will also become unavailable at the end of May 2025 along with the conclusion of product support.

To update LiveShell X to the new streaming system “LiveShell Studio,” a two-step update is required.

“S.E.E.S. Evoker” Will Be Released in Japan – A Masterful Recreation of a Persona 3 Reload Icon

Cerevo, an internet-connected consumer electronics manufacturer headquartered in Tokyo, is excited to announce the upcoming release of the S.E.E.S. Evoker in Japan. The S.E.E.S. Evoker, a 1:1 scale reproduction of an iconic item from Persona 3 Reload, is now available for pre-order on Cerevo’s Official Store at a price of 110,000 Japanese Yen (incl. 10%VAT). Shipments are scheduled to begin in March 2025.

S.E.E.S. Evoker
https://evk03-pme.cerevo.com/en/

The S.E.E.S. Evoker EVK03-PMe is a highly detailed recreation of an item central to Persona 3 Reload. Developed under the supervision of the game’s development team, it captures the intricate details and in-game functionality of the original device.

The S.E.E.S. Evoker not only features a meticulously crafted design but also includes over 200 character voice clips, such as the iconic battle shout “Persona!”, as well as synchronized sound effects and background music from the game.

Included Character Voices

  • Protagonist (voiced by Akira Ishida)
  • Yukari Takeba (voiced by Megumi Toyoguchi)
  • Junpei Iori (voiced by Kosuke Toriumi)
  • Akihiko Sanada (voiced by Hikaru Midorikawa)
  • Mitsuru Kirijo (voiced by Rie Tanaka)
  • Fuuka Yamagishi (voiced by Mamiko Noto)
  • Koromaru (voiced by Shinya Takahashi)
  • Aigis (voiced by Maaya Sakamoto)
  • Ken Amada (voiced by Megumi Ogata)
  • Shinjiro Aragaki (voiced by Kazuya Nakai)
    …

Included BGM

  • Mass Destruction -Reload-
  • It’s Going Down Now
  • Unavoidable Battle
  • Aria of the Soul (P3R Version)
  • Burn My Dread -Last Battle Reload-
    …

A standout feature of the S.E.E.S. Evoker is its compatibility with the newly introduced Theurgy mode in Persona 3 Reload. By replacing the standard cartridge with the included Theurgy cartridge, the device glows red, and the rear bolt extends outward. Holding the grip and pulling the trigger activates character voice lines or sound effects, while the bolt retracts – accurately recreating the in-game action.

To enhance realism, the S.E.E.S. Evoker is equipped with haptic feedback technology, delivering precise tactile sensations that simulate recoil. In Theurgy mode, unique vibration patterns correspond to specific character actions, further immersing users in the gameplay experience.

The device features three different modes that can be switched between using a toggle on the main unit:

  • EVOKER Mode – Select and play specific character voices, background music, or sound effects.
  • Random Mode – Randomly plays character voices and background music.
  • Demo Mode – Automatically cycles through actions and sound for continuous play.

The S.E.E.S. Evoker comes with everything needed to fully immerse fans in the world of Persona 3 Reload:

  • Accessories: Includes the S.E.E.S. armband and Holster Belt, just like those supplied to the protagonist in the game.
  • Storage Case: A custom aluminum S.E.E.S. Attache Case to neatly store the Evoker, accessories, Theurgy and standard cartridges, and a USB Type-C charging cable.

Pre-Order Campaign & Availability

To celebrate the launch of the S.E.E.S. Evoker, a special pre-order campaign is running from December 11, 2024, to March 17, 2025. Customers who place a pre-order during this period will receive a 10,000 yen discount as a bonus.

https://dominator.cerevo.com/en/

About “DOMINATOR” 10th anniversary model

“DOMINATOR – 10TH ANNIVERSARY EDITION” is a reproduction of the “DOMINATOR – SPECIAL EDITION” which was produced in 2016. Utilizing the same design, materials and functions, it features a grip made from natural rosewood with a polished finish. The Public Safety Bureau mark above the grip is crafted from aluminum and decorated with a synthetic ruby that gives it a texture similar to a high quality accessory.

Cerevo’s DOMINATOR is a smart toy and fully transformable from Parallelizer to Eliminator modes. The original was discontinued in 2019 due to difficulties in sourcing the necessary parts. However, due to the continuous requests from PSYCHO-PASS fans all over the world, Cerevo has decided to reproduce the model by modifying the internal mechanism and release a new version to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the broadcast debut of the anime “PSYCHO-PASS”.

The differences from the previous model are as follows –

About DOMINATOR Functions

Cerevo’s DOMINATOR has been created under the supervision of Production I.G director Naoyoshi Shiotani and Nitroplus designer Makoto Ishiwata. DOMINATOR features characteristics identical to the devices seen in PSYCHO-PASS such as automatic transformation, voiceover and sound effects, authentic LED lighting, touch sensor activation, Crime Coefficient analysis and more.

Automatic Transformation Between Paralyzer and Eliminator Mode 

Equipped with a special geared motor customized for this product, Cerevo’s DOMINATOR can automatically transform between Paralyzer and Eliminator modes according to a target’s Crime Coefficient score. Cerevo’s DOMINATOR is the world’s first smart toy to commercialize an electrically‐powered deformation mechanism.

Crime Coefficient Analysis and Transformations

When DOMINATOR is aimed at a target, it will automatically analyze and readout the target’s Crime Coefficient score. Connecting a smartphone will allow DOMINATOR to capture and stream an image from its built-in camera to the companion smartphone app and overlay Crime Coefficient data on the target image*.  Just like the one on PSYCHO-PASS, Cerevo’s DOMINATOR transforms to Eliminator mode based on the target’s Crime Coefficient score and is able to capture and save the images with the target’s Crime Coefficient score to the companion smartphone app. 

Camera images mounted on the DOMINATOR can be viewed from the DOMINATOR App.

*The “Crime Coefficient” displays a different value for each person to whom the DOMINATOR is pointed at. The “crime coefficient” is a term used in PSYCHO-PASS and is a fictional word.

Official Voiceover by Noriko Hidaka

DOMINATOR features over 100 exclusive voice samples from Noriko Hidaka who plays the Dominator voiceover for PSYCHO-PASS. Cerevo’s DOMINATOR can automatically playback voice-overs depending on the situation, such as grasping the grip, detecting an authorized person and more. Cerevo’s DOMINATOR has a built-in speaker for voiceover and sound effects and can also playback sound via a connected smartphone’s speakers.

*There are 71 types of voices that can be played in sound test mode.
*The DOMINATOR app will be compatible with iOS/Android in Spring 2024.

Grip Touch Sensor and over 200 LEDs

Cerevo’s DOMINATOR has a built-in touch sensor on the left and right hand sides of grip, enabling detection when held in either hand. Just like in PSYCHO-PASS you can register your DOMINATOR to activate when holding the grip or lock out unauthorized users. DOMINATOR’s body has a total of 217 full color, high brightness LEDs, the LEDs have authentic lighting patterns to replicate Paralyzer, Eliminator or charging modes.

Cerevo Inc., an Internet connected consumer electronics manufacturer headquartered in Tokyo, has released firmware v1.6.0 for LiveShell Studio, which enables the use of memory functions and key assignment settings.

“Memory Function” and “Key Assignment Settings” will be available after updating to firmware v1.6.0. In addition to LiveShell W unit button operations, it will be possible to assign and save any function including memory function items and streaming control to a USB-connectable keypad or keyboard. 

*If you update from firmware older than v1.4.1, the captions saved in LiveShell Studio will be reset to initial settings. Please save images etc. before updating to v1.6.0.

■Memory Function

Multiple values and settings set by LiveShell Studio such as video manipulation (screen switching effects, PinP, screen split, chromakey), captions, ticker and audio mixer can be registered as a single memory item. Registered memory items can be retrieved and reflected at any time, and there is no limit to the number of memory items that can be registered. By registering multiple settings in advance, you can easily switch between various settings during live streaming.

Registered memory items can be reordered by drag & drop

■Key Assignment Settings

In addition to operations using the physical buttons on LiveShell W itself, you can assign specific functions, memory items and distribution control to any key or button on a USB-connected keyboard or keypad. When using a USB-connected keyboard or a keypad, basic LiveShell W operations such as starting streaming, switching from camera A to B and assigning the audio mixer to a dial to change the volume, all the way up to more complex settings registered with the memory function can be done with a single touch. This allows for smoother live streaming operation.
