As a mediocre fighting game player who grew his wings in the anime fighting games that raised me, the upcoming footage from Project L looks absolutely enticing. Riot Games revealed a trailer, showcasing some footage from its newest fighting game. And in a twist of fate, the game is also a tag fighter, letting you use two characters at the same time. I won’t call myself amazing at fighting games, but I do think I can tear up the ladder filled with some League of Legends refugees....

If you’ve purchased the Digital Deluxe edition of Sonic Frontiers or pre-ordered it, there is something pretty big you should be aware of before starting the game. The official Sonic the Hedgehog twitter sent out a pretty important piece of information. Make sure after you finish your Sonic Frontiers‘ download to install all of the Digital Deluxe and pre-order DLC immediately, even before launching the game. For some reason not explained, the DLC won’t be valid if you get through the tutorial without it....

While we’ve known all the details of Rainbow Six Siege‘s latest season for some time, we officially have a launch date now. Operation Phantom Sight begins on 6/11. The new season brings two new operators: the sneaky, spooky Nøkk and American James Bond-type Warden. A goofy trailer called “Clutch Royal” shows us a dramatized version of a bomb round starring Warden. The focus on a match of bomb is fitting, considering that the new version of ranked multiplayer will ditch all modes except bomb....

Cell phones have become a legitimate gaming platform in just the last year. Between PC ports of major games like GTA and KOTOR and X-COM, Apple Arcade, and the full suite of battle royales including Fortnite, PUBG, and Call of Duty Mobile (not to mention legit PC game streaming with the Steam Link app) we’ve come a long way from Bejewled and it’s time for mobile hardware to step up....

Following a leak of box art last week, Capcom has officially announced the Resident Evil 3 remake. Fans speculated the game would be announced later this week at The Game Awards.

There was good news for Resident Evil fans last week, as Capcom released free updates for Resident Evil 2 Remake, its sequel, and the game that debuted the impressive RE engine: Resident Evil 7. These upgrades effectively brought the existing RE-powered series entries up to par with the feature set of Resident Evil Village, with the introduction of ray tracing and 120Hz support. PC patches for this trio of titles were also released, but it’s safe to say that the upgrades are somewhat hit and miss....

A joint statement released by Désilets and the publisher states that the pair have agreed to put an end to the legal dispute, with Désilets withdrawing his legal action against Ubisoft.

Platinum Games has said it’d be interested in bringing Wii U shooter Star Fox Zero to the Nintendo Switch. Speaking to Video Games Chronicle over the weekend, studio head Atsushi Inaba spoke on the possibility. “It’s not cool that people aren’t able to play older games because they’re locked out of the platform, so of course if anything was possible we’d like to bring over any of those older titles to the newer platforms....

Despite not yet being out of early access on steam, PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds has now surpassed four million units. Having only released in March, this is testament to the massive and mostly grassroots success the game has enjoyed. PUBG is an MMO survival game where up to a hundred players must fight to be the last to survive, scavenging for weapons and supplies as they go. At E3 this year, it was announced as a ‘console launch exclusive’ for Xbox, which means it’ll probably come out on PlayStation a few months later....

There has been little information revealed about Pokémon Sword & Shield so far, but there is at least one part of the game that is going to be determined by the fans, as CoroCoro magazine is running a contest that will allow the readers to name an upcoming Steel-type move in the game. According to Serebii, the upcoming May issue of CoroCoro will include a contest for fans to name a move that will appear in Pokémon Sword & Shield....

A fresh update for last year’s Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl has blocked the use of cloned Pokémon in trades and battles. “Some Pokémon acquired via unintended methods or illicit modification now cannot be used in Link Trades or Link Battles,” patch notes state. A datamine of the patch has given more detail, and suggests the game now checks for cloned Pokémon anywhere in your save data - so, in your game’s party, stored in a PC box, or left at the game’s Daycare Centre....

The Isle of Armor—the first DLC for Pokémon Sword & Shield—dropped yesterday, but its expected level scaling is leaving much to be desired (via Nintendo Life). Pokémon Sword & Shield is out now for Nintendo Switch. It had been stated that the new zone and its inhabitants would scale to correspond to the player’s team of Pokémon, even for a team of level 100 Pokémon. However, in encounters, players are finding that the critters are capped at level 60, which is the same level cap as the original Wild Area once the game has been completed....
