Who’s next? Who’s next?! Before this breaks down into a thread of replies about who from theOverwatchcast we most want to have in toy form — is it too late? Am I already out of time here? — I just want to point out that this upcomingNendoroid figureof Tracer comes with articulated hair. It’s pretty dang good: Blizzard is alsotaking pre-orders. The figure is priced at $50 with an expected August 2017 ship date....
Nice play, Ubisoft. They’ve snapped up Finland-based dev RedLynx, the makers of the fine game Trials HD. That game became one of the best-selling XBLA titles ever, mind you. Yves Guillemot, chief executive officer at Ubisoft, sounded pretty pleased about their latest acquisition: “We are delighted to welcome RedLynx to the Ubisoft family. Their expertise in asynchronous online games and physics-based game mechanics provides us with a great opportunity to bring their powerful brands, most notablyTrials, to an even broader range of fast-growing digital platforms....
New alpha starts March 11 It has been a long time since we last heard from Ubisoft’s arcade-like three-on-three roller derby gameRoller Champions. After a surprise reveal at E3 (that leaked well ahead of time), Ubisoft launched an open alpha so that everyone could try it. I wasn’t exactly smitten byRoller Champions. While admittedly an amateur at the game — everyone was, it had only been made available for a few weeks — I couldn’t help but wonder how high the skill ceiling could go....

Today’s Xbox Developer Direct had a surprise guest appearance from a third party. Square Enix cut into the stream to show off more of its upcomingVisions of Mana, and confirm a Summer 2024 release window. The unannounced guest made its appearance directly after Obsidian and Ninja Theory’s presentations, to share new details about the next entry in theManaseries. This will actually be the first entry in the series to hit Xbox consoles, so today’s appearance on the stream was a bit of a surprise, to say the least....

Yep, that Terminator WhenWWE 2K16hits later this year, it’ll have a pre-order bonus in tow — The Terminator. Yep, that’s the classic Arnold Schwarzenegger T-800 character. Evidently the game will have two T-800s in tow, with one modeled after the first movie, and the other,Judgment Day. I’m not a fan of pre-order bonuses, but as long as both characters hit the game in some capacity it shouldn’t be that much of a loss....
Or playing with a tablet configuration Mario Kart 8 Deluxeis somewhat of a weird precedent for Nintendo. The Wii U failed, for all intents and purposes, so they’re takingMario Kart 8, a game that’s not even three years old and selling it again on the Switch as a faux “Game of the Year Edition.” It’s an “enhanced” version of the original with a Double Item Box (and a two-item carry system as well as the re-introduction of the Feather and Boo), an easy steering mode for newcomers, three returning characters, two new characters, and Battle Mode....

Uncovered by the folks overon the Reddit community(which involves information scrubbed fromPSNandXbox Live), the expansion will sport a “gripping new story” involving a new nemesis, as well as a level 30 boost (similar to other MMOs that provide level boosts for new or returning players), a new New York open world, an updated level cap (40), more gear and an “extended endgame,” that will branch off of three month seasons....
From March 17 – 21 in San Francisco The 2014 Game Developers Conference is fast approaching and today we got the heads up on an exciting addition to the event: the Indie Megabooth Showcase. This banding of indie devs has becomea highlight of PAX, so I’m expecting good things from the showing. 15 games were chosen and they’ll be playable by all GDC passholders on the third floor of the West Hall of Moscone Convention Center:...

Arcade-style sports titles bring out the worst in me. During the tail end of my 21st birthday, I threw a rather embarrassing hissy fit because I was too drunk to win atMario Kart 64; I’ve said terrible things to some of my best friends over games ofNFL BlitzorNBA Jam; I almost had a coronary playingWindjammersagainst Jonathan Ross last week. It might not be a good idea for me to evenpostaboutRiver City Soccer Hooligans, much less think about buying it, but here we are....
