This article has a bit about Chaos Rings' manga's last book coming out and how it has serial codes for CR-themed promo cards to be used in Kakusansei Million Arthur, but I don't think anyone cares about that, since the real news is Chaos Rings Sigma.
Chaos Rings Sigma is a social RPG coming this year to iPhone/Android.
The game is set to have the appearance of all 27 main characters of the series so far, including the manga's original characters Ignat(?):
and Erodi(?):
As well as an all new scenario penned by Chaos Rings's scenario writer Yukinori Kitajima (Synthese). I know the fact that it's gonna be a social game is a downer for a lot, including myself, but the fact that Kitajima is doing the scenario is pretty exciting, I think, since he hasn't worked on a Chaos Rings game since the first one.

Also, Square Enix released Drakerider Overconnect for iPhone and iPad:
Localized as Drakerider Chains Transcendent, it's an enhanced version of the original Drakerider, and this time it has the whole game in it, unlike the original release where you had to purchase chapters separately.

Kill or be killed... Answer the call of high adventure and deliver the world from destruction together with your ferocious dragon companion! The new, upgraded version of the mobile role-playing game DRAKERIDER is here!
*Major Changes*
- Enemy stats have undergone further balancing.
- An On/Off toggle has been added for enemy encounters.
- A number of voiced cutscenes have been rendered into real-time movies.
*Description*
The stage of DRAKERIDER is set in Igraine, a world on the brink of destruction due to the repeated attacks of the Dread. Aran Lawson, once an ordinary tracker, now finds himself as a dragalier—and mankind's final hope. This is the story of our hero and his dragon companion, Eckhardt.
The game lets you take the reins with a battle system like no other. Instead of entering commands, control the chains to execute your strategy. Easing off the reins will allow Eckhardt the freedom to unleash powerful attacks. Too much leeway, however, will trigger his primal instincts, endangering Aran.
Led by Akifumi Kaneko, the game is developed by WITCHCRAFT Inc., famous for their work on various anime and other RPGs. This title maintains the high quality and integrity for which they are known.
The characters are voiced by an array of talented artists, including Ryohei Kimura, Nana Mizuki, Shinichiro Miki, Kana Hanazawa, Keiji Fujiwara, and many others. The powerful theme song "unleash," performed by Shoujyo Byou, accentuates the powerful storyline and intense battles.
*Game System*
● The battle is in your hands
Tighten or loosen your grip on the reins by sliding the chains at the bottom of the screen. The gauge at the top of the screen represents its tension. Ease off to unleash powerful attacks and abilities, but give your dragon too much freedom and you will lose control. If you're not quick to pull back the reins, he will turn against you.
● Develop your dragon's abilities
Claim victory in battle to earn CP, which you can use to learn abilities and powerful attacks. Unlocking some abilities will close your path to others, so plan carefully and customize your dragon to suit your needs.
