Indivisible Animated Opening by Studio Trigger & Titmouse

Posted by Chase McCain / 385 / 0

Early this morning we were treated to a small preview of Indivisible‘s opening animation sequence by Studio Trigger and Titmouse. Although the Trigger’s involvement was made privy to fans and backers back in late 2016, seeing really is believing. Indivisible, supposedly due in the first half of 2019, is a classically styled RPG platformer. The protagonist of the story is Ajna, a girl who is able to manifest the power of others through magical incarnation. Appearing on the leaner side of things, one would be remiss to discount the pedigree of the parties currently involved with the production of Indivisible.

PQube Stops Short on Omega Labyrinth Z Localization

Posted by Chase McCain / 323 / 1

In a move that has been anticipated for some time now, PQube officially nixed the Western release of Omega Labyrinth Z for PS4 and PS Vita. Known more for their publishing catalog, which includes titles like BlazBlue: Cross Tag Battle, Muv-Luv, and Shantae: Half-Genie Hero, PQube also works to offer up some of the more risque titles from Japan that might not otherwise see Western releases (Gal-Gun 2, Valkyrie Drive: Bhikkhuni). Early this morning PQube officially announced that the Western release of Omega Labyrinth Z was cancelled and that they would offer no other comments regarding the matter at this

NSFW Images Crop Up In Super Mario Odyssey

Posted by Chase McCain / 338 / 0

Over the last few days things have gotten quite exciting for the Nintendo Switch modding community, which recently got its hands on tools that allow for greater levels of device access and control. For example, unlike other online services which allow users to upload custom avatars (PlayStation for example), the Switch has a very limited, very short list of Nintendo themed visuals for players to select as their profile avatar. The pictures are mostly used for profile identification purposes, but in the case of Super Mario Odyssey, the images are used and displayed online. Odyssey features a post-game activity called

Temtem Blows Through the Early Stages of Kickstarter Funding

Posted by Chase McCain / 259 / 0

With new Pokémon there comes considerable hand wringing. Last week’s announcement was capped off with a reminder that a more traditional, focused title would be released for the Nintendo Switch some time in 2019. Nonetheless, many have remarked their distaste for Let’s Go and the current trajectory of the franchise. For fans that might be feeling a little uneasy there are other options out there: enter Temtem, a Pokémon inspired MMO. Crema, a small outfit based out of Madrid, has successfully secured funding for their monster collect and battle game Temtem. In roughly one week, the project has already clawed

The game’s release date appears to have been pushed from this spring to August 9, to be released for both PS4 and PS Vita with English localization by H2 Interactive.

Treating fans to some huge news in advance of E3, The Pokémon Company has announced two new upcoming titles: Pokémon Quest, a game resembling Pokémon Rumble Blast, and Pokémon: Let’s Go Pikachu / Eevee, a landmark reimagining of the original Kanto region with some updated functionality and mechanics.

SCP Light Novel Available for Order

Posted by Chase McCain / 1040 / 0

The SCP Foundation has (uncharacteristically?) been getting a surprising amount of attention lately, with fans and curious newcomers alike flocking to download SCP: Secret Laboratory. Along with the free to play game, an SCP light novel will also soon be upon us. Drawing inspiration from a number of SCP Foundation articles, the light novel will be authored by Akira (Kyōran Kazoku Nikki) and illustrated by Sidu (Kagerou Daze)—its title, a play on words, loosely translates to “Iris Through The Looking Glass.” SCP stands for “Secure, Contain, Protect” and is the motto of the SCP Foundation: a worldwide secret organization that

Fortnite Season 4 Updates and Changes

Posted by Chase McCain / 339 / 0

After watching and waiting in anticipation, with gamers and mainstream media outlets alike speculating as to whether or not the comet would take out Tilted Towers, Season 4 of Fortnite is finally upon us. The changes aren’t all pickaxes and outfits though, as the map itself has also been altered. The biggest destination changes include the addition of Risky Reels (a drive-in theater) in the upper right hand quadrant of the map, and the transformation from Dusty Depot into Dusty Divot—a giant crater hosting an on-site research setup like the one in Thor (this time it’s a meteor instead of

Microsoft and 343 Industries Take Action Against ElDewrito

Posted by Chase McCain / 233 / 0

A seemingly short lived return for what many would now describe as “classic Halo,” Microsoft appears to be taking legal action against ElDewrito: a free executable allowing users to play a modded version of Halo Online on their PC. We wrote about the mod back in March, when hype was mounting in anticipation of the 0.6 build release; now finally here, this moment in Halo history, in which you can use your keyboard and mouse to dumpster kids with no-scope flick-shots during mid-air man cannon jumps on Narrows, might be all too fleeting. Late last night on April 24, a
