Unlike Tekken 7 and SoulCalibur 6, this year's outsiders and away team players were no match for Japan's top Street Fighter 5 players. The top 8 was filled with 6 Japanese players, 1 US player (Punk), and 1 Taiwanese player (OilKing). Fans and players hoping for a turnaround from the US and Taiwanese representative during the top 8 were sorely disa...

We sent Mr Toffee down to Japan for a few days during the mega-arcade event JAEPO and the International Challenge Cup 2019. During the latter, teams from Japan fought teams from Asia in different games over the course of 2 days. Mr Toffee managed to talk to the Street Fighter V participants about, well, Street Fighter V and fighting game esports s...
It's only 27 more days until Devil May Cry 5 comes out and prove that it can go toe-to-toe with the Bayonetta series. I'm not going to hold my breath in regards to this, but at the very least we'll get a solid action game if the recent demo is of any indication. But did you know that the game's director Hideaki Itsuno was close to choosing Dragon'...

Players will take control of Nero yet again, along with a new Devil Breaker skill called Punch Line and the ability to call Nico driving in the DMC Motorhome as support. Save data from this demo will grant players a bonus of 30...

Platform: PS4, Xbox One, PC Genre: Survival Horror, Action, Third-Person Shooter Resident Evil, once the mighty giant of the survival horror genre, has faltered in recent years, only recently re-establishing itself again after 2017's Resident Evil 7. With the Resident Evil 2 remake, has Capcom managed to build on that momentum or is it...
With Kingdom Hearts 3 out in a few days (or right now if you're from Japan), it's time to look back and remember what made the series so great in the first place. No, it's not just the gameplay and the whole Disney/Square Enix collaboration. It's also about the music. Composed by Yoko Shimomura, Kingdom Hearts emanates a ton of her trademark piano...
You know what's missing in the Resident Evil 2 Remake? No, it's not the gore or the suspense, or the tension; far from it. It's missing the 90s robotic-looking polygons. Thankfully, we might be getting our wish. Players in Japan will be able to get the "98 Classic" costume for Leon and Claire in the Resident Evil 2 remake as part of a special Ja...
Update: Added in a method to circumvent the demo's 30-minute restriction, as well as a speedrun video from YouTube user SVINT & a few others. With the Resident Evil 2 reboot coming out soon on 25 January, it's no surprise that there's a demo coming out soon. In fact, it'll be available from 11 January to 31 January, for the PC (via Steam),...
A few days ago, Capcom announced the "sponsored content" option starting 11 December where players can obtain additional Fight Money (the currency you use to buy characters and stuff) in Ranked and Casual Matches. Sponsored content/ads will be on fighter's costumes, on the loading screen before a fight, and on stages like the Ring of Power. Oh, and...
Another year, another legitimate reason to watch pros attempt to like and struggle to enjoy their time with Street Fighter V. Forgive me for being a cynical old goat, but you start to wonder if this Street Fighter, as a game mind you, will still stand the test of time if the ginormous prize pool, marketing, and tournament backing it are taken out o...
I'm pretty glad the Monster Hunter series is getting worldwide acclaim with the latest game. Like, really, REALLY big acclaim outside of Japan. With an easy-to-learn-but-hard-to-master approach to big game hunting, where the game consists of giant lizards and things with really sharp teeth and claws, Monster Hunter World deserves all of the praises...
Street Fighter V's eventual fourth season is coming. But did you know that there's allegedly going to be another huge 2019 update called Super Street Fighter V? So much for innovative naming schemes, eh Capcom? In any case, prominent leaker X-Kira (via Eventhubs) did the usual datamining and found out that the update is slated for December 2019. H...
There are rumours abound involving Capcom changing up last year's fighting game Marvel vs. Capcom Infinite, clearly a fan favourite for FGC folks everywhere since last year, and rebrand it as Marvel vs Capcom 4. Let's be a tad fair: MvCI had some good points overshadowed by some major flaws, namely its aesthetics, roster, and half-assed single-p...
Update: set pics have surfaced! As many of you have heard, Capcom plans to bring its franchises to the big screen. One of them is Monster Hunter, with Paul W.S Anderson (the guy who directed the Resident Evil films) to direct and Milla Jovovich to star in alongside Ron Perlman, Meagan Good, Tony Jaa, and Diego Boneta. And if this recent pictu...

Southeast Asian's fighting game scene takes a step towards the mainstream with the recent South East Asia Major 2018 fighting game tournament. With titles like Street Fighter V to even upcoming 3D weapons-based epic SoulCalibur VI (out next week BT dubs), this year's highlights are looking just as exhilarating as this year's EVO 2018 offerings. Ar...
Capcom's recent annual report for 2018 is up, and it looks like sunshine and rainbows for the house that created Street Fighter, Resident Evil, and Mega Man. Here's what we gathered: The company's net sales during its fiscal year are worth 94,515,000,000 yen/US$841,759,332, which is an 8.4% increase from the previous fiscal year results. The ne...
Capcom released a beat-em-up collection called the Capcom Beat Em Up Bundle, which is also called Capcom Belt Action in Southeast Asia. Naming oddity notwithstanding, it's a collection of Capcom's finest beat-em-ups that aren't licensed fares; no Aliens vs Predator, no Cadillacs & Dinosaurs, and no Punisher. It's sad, but what we ended up are s...

The o...

With Mega Man 11 already out this week, it's only fitting we get a live-action movie announcement to capitalize on the hype that's only emanating from old-school Mega Man and Capcom fans. In a startling announcement, Capcom announced that the Mega Man IP will be adapted into a live-action Hollywood film for the first time. The title of the film i...
