Nintendo has announced its newest Super Smash Bros. Ultimate tournament, titled ‘The Road to Becoming Fighting King,’ and it’ll run for three days starting Friday. The reveal happened during Wednesday’s Terry Bogard livestream, hosted by Smash Bros. The three boxer-types make sense, but I didn’t expect to see Kirby, who seems to have just inhaled Terry Bogard. Regardless, it’s refreshing to see Nintendo do something different, and it’ll give competitive Smash Bros.

Some Fallout 76 players who subscribed to the controversial Fallout 1st paid subscription service have formed ‘The Apocalyptic Aristocracy,’ seemingly in response to perceived hostility from some in the Fallout 76 community. GamesRadar reported recently that some Fallout 76 players were griefing Fallout 1st subscribers for their gall in supporting the service. What started as a joke quickly turned into a safe haven, where players who had subscribed could openly discuss Fallout 1st topics without

Death Stranding never would have existed if Silent Hills had made it past P.T. , and Norman Reedus is happy with the way everything worked out in the end. That’s how Reedus met Kojima and became involved with Silent Hills, which was first revealed to the world at the end of P.T. Going from Silent Hills to Death Stranding was “completely different,’ Reedus explained. This is a completely different thing […] I like the fact that Silent Hills didn’t happen, to be honest, because I’ve gotten such

The creators behind Mass Effect 3, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, and Fallout 3 have teamed up to create a new entertainment studio called Brass Lion Entertainment. The studio was announced in a Medium article penned by former Bioware employee Manveer Heir, who calls it a “diverse and inclusive entertainment studio” that he’s been working to build since early 2017. The announcement of the formation of Brass Lion Entertainment also came with the announcement of its first game, Corner Wolves. “Corne

An amazing gaming laptop deal, as it turns out, and one likely to beat any savings you see on Black Friday. I’m not sure you could find a cheaper bargain this side of the Black Friday gaming PC offers at the end of November. Both will allow you to play the latest games on high-to-ultra settings, and that’s sure to come in handy now that the visually drop-dead-gorgeous Red Dead Redemption 2 is on PC . It can also get you access to ray tracing, a lighting system normally reserved for the best gami

To coincide with the upcoming Rick and Morty season 4 premiere this Sunday, several new Funko Pops have been unveiled. From Teddy Rick to Wasp Rick, they could be teasing the sort of nightmare-fuelled direction the first half of the season is headed. Due for release in December, there are five Rick and Morty season 4 Funkos: Wasp Rick, Kirkland Meeseeks, Death Crystal Morty, Teddy Rick, and Hologram Rick Protestor. Elsewhere, the Council of Ricks (or, at least, another alternate version of Rick)

Nintendo has released a shiny new trailer for Pokemon Sword and Shield that offers an overview of the new adventure in the Galar region. We also get another look at the new Wild Area, which is home to the largest variety of Pokemon in the Galar region. Just like the Pokemon encounters in Pokemon: Let’s Go , in Pokemon Sword and Shield the little critters will physically appear roaming the lands for you to run up to and battle. News recently came to light that anyone who has a save file of Pokemo

Update: Playtonic has put a message out on Twitter confirming it’s not working on a Banjo-Kazooie game, and highlighting that it remains an independent studio. pic.twitter.com/nZHqI5GaYeNovember 6, 2019While it’s not the news Banjo fans are hoping for, it does sound like Playtonic are gearing up to work on something new, which sounds good to us. A series of too-suspicious-to-be-circumstantial events has led the internet to believe a new Banjo-Kazooie game is in the works from Playtonic Games, th

Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order trophies are already out in the wild, as the full list of achievements has leaked online ahead of the game’s November 15 release date on PC, PS4, and Xbox One. Be warned: the set of trophies, which can be viewed here, seem to contain a number of potential story and gameplay spoilers for Respawn’s upcoming action-RPG set in the Star Wars universe. Let’s dig into what some of the most pertinent trophies could mean for the full game itself. No word on whether Chewbacca

War Child UK and Children in Conflict are bringing back the Armistice campaign, which encourages “peaceful gameplay” during November to coincide with Armistice day. The charity gaming fundraiser will raise money for children affected by conflict through live streaming events and a Steam sale for a variety of non-violent games. The charity has also partnered with Failbetter Games, I Got Games, Digital Legends and Game Insight to create exclusive in-game content to raise funds to support children

Sony will be shutting down both SingStar’s servers and your popstar pipe dreams early next year. A post on the official PlayStation website states that the SingStore servers will be shut down on January 31, 2020, effectively axing the major components of the popular karaoke games. Anyone still in possession of a PS2 and the physical SingStar disc will be able to enjoy a previously selected list of songs ad infinitum. Your 14th birthday party was woefully inadequate if you didn’t have a SingStar,

The Golden Joystick Awards 2019 voting has officially closed, with the stage now set for the awards themselves.

Dungeons & Dragons just got the closest thing possible to a big beta balance update for a game that lives half in printed books and half in your imagination. Unearthed Arcana: Class Feature Variants gives new options to every class in the game, making each one more flexible – and in some cases – more powerful. Check out our guide on how to start playing D&D! As someone who loves playing Fighters but hates being locked into something that I may never actually use, this is fantastic. Even if you a

Square Enix is ready to create games for next-gen consoles, according to a project listed on the First Development Division’s recruitment website. The First Development Division is the branch of Square Enix behind the upcoming Final Fantasy VII Remake and this year’s Kingdom Hearts 3 , and has worked on titles for consoles and smartphones. Back in 2013, Square Enix restructured its entire development staff, splitting them up into 11 different divisions that operated independently. Recently, Squa

Tim Miller’s Kitty Pryde movie is probably never happening. Earlier in the year, before Disney bought 20th Century Fox, the rumor mill was turning with the story that Miller would be directing a Kitty Pryde solo movie. I was really excited about my Kitty Pryde movie. The Disney/Fox merger likely led to the movie’s cancellation, as every other X-Men spin-off, including a third Deadpool and Channing Tatum’s Gambit, has been put on hold. There’s currently no word on whether the Kitty Pryde film wil

Official word has come from the Ministry of Magic, or its closest real-world equivalent, that the third installment in the Fantastic Beasts series will start filming in 2020 and will be released on November 12, 2021. We saw her briefly in Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald , where she plays a key role in encouraging alchemist Nicolas Flamel to help Newt and Jacob. Last April, JK Rowling confirmed that the character had a much bigger role to play in future Fantastic Beasts films. You onl

We’ve already raced through NYC and Tokyo, but Mario Kart Tour’s next stop has a distinctly European flair to it as it stops off to take in the City of Lights itself – Paris, France.

Interestingly, the tweet comes just weeks after Bluepoint teased the studio has been working on something for a while now , confirming that that “something” will be for the PS5 and it’s “a big one”. “So calm this spooky night,” teased the Halloween tweet. A resistance to dart home as black monsters escape twisted hills to wander lands and syphon souls. A resistance to dart home as black monsters escape twisted hills to wander lands and syphon souls. By using the words given in the mysterious twe

Hideo Kojima had a lot to say about Death Stranding when he spoke to BBC Radio 1 Newsbeat . That connection, according to Kojima, is why Death Stranding seeks to push people to think about connection. In Death Stranding, Norman Reedus’ Sam Porter Bridges seeks to save the world by delivering packages to remote locations, traversing rocky terrain and fending off those attempting to steal his wares. “The era of today is about individualism,” Kojima suggests in the interview – it’s clear that Death

We’re only a couple of weeks away from Pokemon Sword and Shield now, but that hasn’t stopped a deluge of leaks from flooding the internet in the last 24-hours courtesy of a prematurely-released guide book. The information detailed below will likely include Pokemon Sword and Shield spoilers, so please proceed at your own risk! In less spoilery news, we recently shared the quaint British countryside of Pokemon Sword and Shield’s starting town, Galar . The Pokemon Company revealed a little while ba
