Watch the striking trailer below to see why Let me introduce you to Kickstarter projectRadio the Universe: A great looking top-down action game that conveys a specific haunted mood so well with its art direction and pixel art that resemblesKonjak‘s better work. The look of the game reminds me of the grim futuristic parts ofChrono TriggerandFinal Fantasy VIwhich I love! The creator citesYume Nikki,Symphony of the Night,Hotline Miami,Dark Souls, and 2D JRPGs as influences....

At least HIDIVE joined VRV Today is a sad day for anime fans. For the past two years, Funimation and Crunchyroll have had a partnership where they would share the streaming rights for various anime titles, but that partnership has come to an end. As of November 9, the partnership between Funimation and Crunchyroll will end, as well as Funimation’s partnership with VRV. The reason is mostly due to AT&T’s buyout of WarnerMedia, who owns both VRV and Crunchyroll, while Sony owns Funimation....

Sneaky, sneaky Sombra is finally going to hitOverwatchafter months of teasing. It went from “man, Blizzard can really do an ARG” to “really Blizzard?” pretty fast, but hey, they tried, they dragged it out, and now we’re getting a real extra free character out of it. I’ll take it. And after playing her on location at BlizzCon, I’m even more excited. Sombra is classified as “Offense,” though she has some support-like capabilities (mostly related to her hacking of health packs, which I’ll get to momentarily)....

One thing thatMarvel’s Spider-Man 2improves upon is its handling of side objectives. They flow naturally with the story and so long as players are keeping up with them, they shouldn’t have an issue reaching 100% completion. The added bonus of striving for 100% completion is the abundance of rewards that will keep Peter and Miles on their toes against theirvarious foes. Here’s everything you need to help the Spider-Men clean up New York....

I’ll play this game once a year nearly every year SteamWorld Questenjoyed roughly a month of exclusivity on Switch before it jumped to PC this past May, and since then I’ve heard tales of quite a few people picking up this little gem and enjoying it. If you haven’t yet now is a good time, as version 2.0 is now upon us! Image & Form is using a new developer diary to give us the dirty details, which includes a limited time 20% discount for the Switch and PC editions....

Still working on ‘permanent’ solution Capcom hasn’t formalized along term, permanent planfor dealing withStreet Fighter Vplayers who disconnect to avoid a loss in online play, but it did start dishing out interim punishments, according to anupdate. “Starting last week, we penalized roughly 30 players in our system by docking their League Points. Players who log into their account and see that their LP and Rank has dropped significantly can consider this a warning....

With two weeks left to go When we last coveredStrike Suit Zero, developer Born Ready Gameshad taken to Kickstarterto garner additional funding that would go toward finishing development of this space combat game. Some of you expressed personal interest in the project — you’ll be pleased to know that the $100,000 goal has indeed been met.

I bring you word thatStyle Me Girlwas recently released on iOS and Android by Frenzoo, a game that presents itself as the “first mobile RPG exclusively for women.” It has been designed with ladies in mind, and as such, representseverythingthatallwomen want from games! “Style Me Girlis one of the first RPG mobile games focused exclusively on the female audience and hopes to be for women what first-person shooter games and mafia-style RPGs are for men,” reads the PR email....

I’m not crying, it’s just raining out A few days ago,we reportedon dataminers discovering the NES gameGolfhidden within the Switch’s firmware. A lot of people were speculating if this was a bug, a placeholder for the eventual launch of Nintendo’s Virtual Console service, or some hidden Easter egg that could eventually be launched. It turns out the last explanation was true, just it goes a bit deeper than a simple bonus....

Desert locations are always a bitch, but in upcoming MMO The Secret World it’s going to be the biggest bitch. A new trailer shows off this location, which is set in Egypt. If the heat and the dudes with rocket launchers isn’t enough, try on the black goop coming out from the ground. Or the freaky beasts. Or zombies from ancient times. This makes your typical desert level look like a cake walk....

Dem keychains, tho One of my favorite parts ofKirby: Triple Deluxewas collecting all of the adorable little keychains. I’ve been hoping to see an entire set of them released for purchase, pixelated goodness and all, but I’ve not seen them just yet. Luckily, there’s still a way to gather them all together in one place to create one heck of a conversation piece: thisKirby: Triple Deluxekeychain puzzle. Ensky’s gorgeous puzzle features all of the keychains you can collect in-game laid out in a way that would look awesome on your wall....

The newest Mutation forLeft 4 Dead 2is “Follow the Liter,” a variation on Scavenge mode where only one gas can appears at a time. This severely limits the paths Survivors can take to reach their overall objective and should help to crank up the intensity. I mean, it’s a game about the zombie apocalypse, so it’s already fairly intense. Perhaps I should change that to “this Mutation will crank up the ragequitting....

Still due in May Although it was revealed inUmbrella Corps‘ last trailer, Capcom is now officially sharing details regarding itsResident Evil 5-style Kijuju map. It’s the biggest map in the game, and will also sport underground passages in addition to its open style. The Majini will return as enemies in the arena.
