It's official: Borderlands 3 is coming out 13 September for PC, PS4, and Xbox One. We've already suspected it, given the copious amount of leaks yesterday. The PC version will be Epic Store-exclusive; it'll be out in other storefronts on April 2020. The release date trailer also confirmed the names and abilities of the new Vault Hunters. To refres...
Legendary music composer Yuzo Koshiro, who made his mark in the Ys series and in a ton of Sega Megadrive/Genesis games, will be involved with the Mega Drive Mini. He will be making brand-new music for the menu, which is fitting considering he's contributed a ton of aural masterpieces during the MegaDrive heydays. In keeping with the old-school the...
I remember how inventive and trippy Super Mario Bros World 2: Yoshi's Island was back in 1995. The awesome art style, the inventive gameplay where Yoshi can morph into different things, the fact that only lose if you get Baby Mario kidnapped, leading to Yoshi himself being invincible except to pitfalls and spikes. Fun times. How was that "blast to...
Nope, this isn't a late April Fools joke. Id Software and Avalanche Studio's open-world shooter Rage 2, that's set in a colourful post-apocalyptic world, will feature NBA Jam's Tim Kitzrow's voice. Why? I don't know, but he'll be providing celebratory quips as you kill enemies left, right, and centre. If you're a fan of NBA Jam, Tim is known for c...

2011: Eons after suffering through the many 3D Mortal Kombat games where fighters can switch between stances and pull off custom Fatalities, I was incredibly skeptical about the Mortal Kombat reboot. This was my time at GameSpot, so I was on high alert as to whether Ed Boon and his then-new studio can recapture the glory days of the simple-but-fun ...
One would think the headline is an early April's Fool joke (it's only a few days), but it's real. Hello Kitty and Mobile Suit Gundam are going to duke it out in lieu of their respective anniversaries: 45th for the former, 40th for the latter. According to a Crunchyroll report, the project involves a LINE campaign where fans can vote for their fa...
The winds of war blow once more. Sega's RPG-slash-turn-based mecha combat-slash-dating sim video game hybrid Sakura Wars will be making a comeback after for so long. During Sega Fes this weekend in Japan, the company released a trailer of its next game dubbed Project Sakura Wars. And yes, the game's most memorable anthem is back when you go pas...
My past few SoundScape videos have been focused on Japanese music composers, so it's time we changed that. In the next few months, I'll be doing these discography "best of" video features primarily spotlighting the best composers the US and Europe have to offer. First up: Jeremy Soule. Check out the video mixtape feature below to check out his h...

During PAX 2019's Gearbox's main theatre show which took longer than it should thanks to staged card tricks and technical difficulties, the company announced the long-awaited follow-up to the hit action RPG loot-and-shoot game: Borderlands 3. Finally. The game will be directed by Gearbox's Paul Sage. Here's how it looks like; dig into the awesomen...
Turns out Monolithsoft, the guys behind the awesome Xenoblade Chronicles 2 and its prequel Torna: The Golden Country, will be working on a new The Legend of Zelda RPG. According to a Monolithsoft job post, they are hiring technical artists, programmers, planners, designers, and management support for the studio. At this point in time, Monoliths...
Because we need more Persona 5 toys and Figma action figures in our lives, Good Smile Company is going to release another one this October. And it'll be everybody's favourite hot-blooded blondie Ryuji Sakamoto. Love him or really hate him, you can't fault this action figure for not being detailed. It comes with three different faces, a pipe, a sho...

I'll have to level with you Disney animation fans out there: I never cared much about the 1941 animated Dumbo film. All I remember is the following: Casey Jr. Flying elephant. Psychedelic drug sequence featuring pink elephants. Talking crows that remind me of a time Disney went all out with racial stereotyping. It's just a bunch of interestin...

Can't wait for the next Borderlands game to satiate your loot-and-shoot action RPG cravings? Me neither; we brought it up time and again. About time Gearbox released something official a few days before their PAX East showcase. Check out the full teaser below: https://youtu.be/LkHNbsQMxPI My Observations & Best Guesses So Far The video in ...
After watching the live-action Dumbo remake by Tim Burton -you know, the one about the flying elephant- there's been a question that's been plaguing my mind: Where are the live-action versions of the crow brothers? I mean, if you want to talk about race representation in films back in the day, they have that by the boatload. Just not in a posit...
Apple recently announced its new subscription-based gaming service called Apple Arcade, which features a 100 new and exclusive games. While normally I would thumb my nose at such an announcement, I changed my tune after I saw a few names on the list. Names like Will Wright and Hironobu Sakaguchi. This means that Apple is really going out of its wa...
PlayStation just finished streaming its first-ever State of Play video feature, which is basically a PlayStation version of those Nintendo Direct features. Only with no CEO or Shuhei Yoshida doing the game intros, so I'm not really sure what they're going for here. While the chat is currently crucifying PlayStation for a "lame showing", let's not ...
Prepare to scream "GO GO POWER RANGERS!" until you're out of breath as we tell you this brand of good news. Power Rangers: Battle For The Grid will be out for PlayStation 4 on 2nd April. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nmg8E51cn_U The catch? It'll be in US PlayStation stores, so you better get your US PSN account up to snuff if you want in on thi...
It's been a while since we've heard about the Sega Mega Drive Mini. Which is why it's great that Sega will be talking more about it later this week. The Sega Fes 2019 website received an update (via Siliconera), stating that there will be more info about the upcoming retro console on 30 March at noon (GMT +8). The stage event (streamed on Nico Nic...
All those rumours about a new version of Persona 5 are coming true. Just recently, Atlus released a teaser for Persona 5: The Royal for PS4. It'll be the same JRPG we know and love back in 2017, but with more content and a new story addition. Most likely involving the red-haired girl on this teaser. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ygyz3Mqjh0k Ap...
Update (27 March): We have our first-ever full view of the Monstrums, and Adol in his new getup via Dengeki Online. Last time on Falcom's Ys VIII, the action RPG had an open interconnecting world, a bunch of dinosaurs to fight, and an alternate character to control in the form of Dana. That, and some fast-paced action featuring Adol and a bunc...
