A brand new fighting game has entered the field. It's a beautiful and vibrant game called Granblue Fantasy: Versus (GBVS) developed by Arc System Works, who are well-known for their works on anime-style fighting games. To many, GBVS might seem like a brand new game featuring a brand new concept, but it isn't. Rather,

Disney has released the final trailer for its upcoming live-action Mulan movie, and it’s the most action-packed one yet. While it is an adaptation of the iconic 1998 animated movie of the same name, this new trailer doesn't hide the fact that it's essentially an English-language wuxia film. Just for reminder, M

It's the start of a new year, which means the Oscars 2020 is a-go soon; this 9th February PST to be exact. And we have quite an eclectic list of films in the main category.

Today marks the 25th anniversary of the PlayStation, in case you couldn't tell from your game-fuelled Facebook feed or on our front page of the website. 25 years ago this week, the first PlayStation was launched in Japan.

You knew it was coming. After all, we did a bunch of features about the best and the worst Pokémon in all the generations of this PG-rated imaginary monster cockfighting franchise from Nintendo and Game Freak. But what about the new ones in Pokémon Sword/Shield, the latest RPG for the Nintendo Switch? Which cri

[Review originally published  on  15th November.] The more things change, the more they stay the same. If you're Disney these days, sometimes change doesn't come that often, especially when you take into account The Lion King's (2019 version) disgusting box office numbers. So we should be glad that the team

I still recall playing Elder Scrolls: Skyrim for the first time. I felt accomplished as I knocked out quests, explored dungeons, picked flowers while stealing anything and everything in sight to sate my endless hunger for wealth… yeah. Countless hours later, I found that I had nothing left to do, combat felt s

In less than 10 days, the Google Stadia will finally be launching and the world will finally know whether Google's cloud gaming project is a peek into the future of gaming or another one of their projects that they will eventually kill off like Google Glass.

It's 26 August again, my friends which means it's International Dog Day! Here at Kakuchopurei, we want to celebrate International Dog Day by sharing with you guys our favourite barkers and woofers from films and video games.

Nintendo recently displayed its "Indie World" stream recently. Here's what we're getting later this year and the next.

The old console wars left a lot of dilapidated and forgotten gaming machines, one of which was the NEC Home Electronics' TurboGrafx-16, also known as PC Engine in Japan and Europe.

The EXP Pro-Am Apex Legends exhibition matches have just concluded with a slew of epic gameplays and memorable moments.

Dizzy and his squad wer

Walt Disney Studios have released the first trailer for its upcoming live-action Mulan movie, and it's definitely different, to say the least.
