I get that Ryu Hayabusa is a total ninja badass, but I doubt that even he could stand the Dubai heat in all of that black, constrictive ninja garb. His little sleeveless number probably keeps his arm cool, but I’m sure he’s withering away under all that rubbery chest wear and that mask. Team Ninja sent out these brand new screens ofNinja Gaiden 3today. Technically they’re in Dubai, but you won’t see much scenery through all of that blood....

Priced at $150, out the same day as Miitopia With the Switch out and high-profile 3DS game releases starting to wind down, it hadn’t even crossed my mind that Nintendo would come out with another model, but here we are. Enter the New Nintendo 2DS XL, which will sit right in between the 2DS and 3DS XL lines. It’s out May 28, 2025 for $150. On the same day, we’re also getting the Mii RPGMiitopiaandHey!...

Refunds issued on iOS Back in August 2015 it came to my attention that the episodicSons of Anarchygame, released six months prior, had virtually no updates regarding a follow-up — despite the fact that a Season Pass was sold upfront. The developer and publisher had seemingly gone silent, and a small collective of buyers started getting antsy. I mean, that kind of delay between episodes isn’t unheard of (Republiquedidn’t finish its story for almost three years), but to have no communication on the matter was unsettling, to say the least....

Safe slow driving is good driving Let’s talk turkey.Australian brush turkey. It’s a good-lookin’ turkey, no? Don’t hit it with your car inForza Horizon 3. In fact, don’t hit anything with your car inForza Horizon 3. Australia’s full of wildlife. Kangaroos hoppin’ across the outback. Don’t hit them either. Dingos scampering across the road. Swerve. Crocodiles hustling back to their pond. Actually, go ahead and hit the crocs. They’re an unholy affront to the animal kingdom....

Western release also confirmed Ragnarok Odyssey Acewill be gracing the PlayStation Vita soon, according to GungHo Online Entertainment. This is essentially the originalRagnarok Odyssey, but with all of the DLC intact, new enemies, and an extra area, the Yggdrasil Tower (random dungeons). Since it’s essentially a re-release of the original with extra content, it’s a great way for new players to jump in if you missed the boat for the vanilla experience....

Why couldn’t you just say that yesterday, Microsoft? Put down your pitchforks, people. As it turns out,Rise of the Tomb Raiderisn’t really an Xbox exclusive. According to Xbox boss Phil Spencer, the deal “has a duration.” Microsoft didn’t say that during its gamescom presentation yesterday. Instead, the company chose to label it as an exclusive when they probably should have said it’s just coming to Xbox first. Spencer seems to disagree, though, asserting it’s “not [his] job” to tell people when a game is coming out for other platforms....

Classic shmup action for your Nintendo Switch The next Sega Ages release headed to Nintendo Switch will be Techno Soft’sThunder Force AC.The sci-fi shootin’ title will be available to download in the west from the Nintendo eShop on May 28. Thunder Force ACis a remake of sorts of 1990 Sega Mega Drive sequelThunder Force III. The latter proved so popular that Sega “reverse-released” it as an arcade title, an unusual practice for the company at the time....

We are nine years intoPokémon Goand heading towards the 2025 iteration ofPokémon GoFest: Global, which lets anyone around the world take part in a Go Fest without the need to attend an in-person event. Go Fests are unique, one-month-a-year events, and if you’ve never been to an in-person one before, I implore you to do so when time allows. But for a lot of people who attend them yearly, there are certain elements and issues that creep up all the time that don’t seem to be resolved, even if the event can be very fun to take part in....

Kick ’em all to Sky-Bli-vion If you haven’t been keeping a close eye on theOblivion/Skyrimmodding community, you may have missed out on the progress ofSkyblivion. The fan-made modification takesTES4and rebuilds it inTES5‘s engine, and the scope of this project is one for the ages. Now, the volunteers working on this unofficial remake has shared a new video that shows the current progress plus what’s left to do. The 10-minute footage over onYouTubeis essentially a checklist of how much has been done onSkyblivionsince work began in 2012....

Not a good time to lose one’s head Focus Home Interactive has dropped a new trailer for its upcoming sci-fi sequelThe Surge 2, headed to PC and consoles late next month. The new clip focuses specifically on the brutal melee combat of the dystopian adventure, and features a montage of brutality as our hero carves their way through Jericho City. While the casual removal of limbs and heads from the opponent may seem a little extreme, it’s not all in the name of being a mech suit-clad psychopath, as dismemberment is a key mechanic ofThe Surge 2....

In the interview, she discusses her experience working with Kojima. She describes how dedicated Kojima was to the project and how he would attend many of the motion capture sessions....

While I’d prefer a jetpack, I suppose I wouldn’t turn down a free Roadster from Tesla Motorheads. Capcom has teamed with the auto manufacturer in aDark Voidpromotion to give you (yes, you!) the chance to win one of the electric motorcars of the future. While one person gets the car, five people will win a free trip to the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas this January to test drive the car with the Dark Void development team....

I know everyone that’s seen the footage ofOkamidenfor Nintendo DS has wailed over its amazing cuteness, but let me tell you, the adorable levels head infinitely skyward when you actually get your hands on the game in the flesh. The beautiful look even extended to the booth at TGS, which was decorated thematically and even sported a full size cherry blossom tree and a huge stuffed Chibiterasu and Kuninushi which might have been the cutest thing I’ve seen at the whole show (see the gallery for more)....
