It all started on March 8th of this year. On that day, Nintendo premiered a Direct. At the end, an announcement for a new Super Smash Bros. for release in 2018 was unveiled. This came as a surprise, as Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and 3DS was less than four years old at that point. Nonetheless, this became the big talk of the Nintendo gaming community. Would this be an enhanced port of Smash Wii U, like Mario Kart 8 Deluxe?...
Warner Bros has filed a trademark for Big Chungus for use in video games, causing speculation (and hope!) that the supersized bunny is coming to MultiVersus. The trademark, filed on 26th August with the European Union Intellectual Property Office, also covers a range of other things such as films, clothing, and toys. Whilst Big Chungus is perfect material for a soft toy, it seems more likely that he is being added to MultiVersus, given the game’s popularity and broad roster of fighters....
For four decades, she has lit up screens, as likably down-to-earth as she is gutsy and laugh-out-loud funny. As Jamie Lee Curtis returns to her most iconic role as bogeyman-busting Laurie Strode in this year’s Halloween, we delved into the Curtis back catalogue to uncover the Scream Queen’s best ever on-screen moments… Let me in! – Halloween (1978) In her breakout role as babysitter Laurie Strode, Jamie Lee Curtis brought a quiet intelligence to the American girl next door....
Fixes for everyone’s favorite droid Respawn Entertainment’s Jedi: Fallen Order received a patch yesterday that fixed a few problems around the Star Wars galaxy. Apparently Cal has a penchant for phasing through walls and getting stuck for eternity in forgotten tombs. A lot of the feedback came from the community. Kudos to Respawn for such a quick turnaround in addressing a lot of these issues. One of the big changes is that the color of the Force bar has been switched, thereby making it easier to read....
Ubisoft has been delivering Just Dance games every autumn since 2009, and this year is no exception. The hit rhythm franchise, which has also produced a number of spin-offs, is now ten years old and still going strong. This latest incarnation features a new tracklist, the return of Co-op mode, and a brand-new All-Stars Mode, which will hit long term players right in the feels. Familiar, yet different enough to feel like a new game, Just Dance 2020 is a must-have for fans of the rhythm game franchise....
Warner Bros. is wasting no time in hyping up Zack Snyder’s Justice League, the legendary “Snyder Cut” which will finally make its debut on HBO Max in 2021. The Snyder Cut footage was first revealed via Jason Momoa’s Instagram page before it made it to official HBO Max channels. Momoa has long been a vocal proponent of the #ReleaseTheSnyderCut movement, and it was Snyder himself who pursued Momoa for the role of Aquaman....
The first details on the Justice League movie have been confirmed by Warner, including a synopsis, logo and image of the new Batmobile. There may be some minor Batman v Superman spoilers ahead. You have been warned. “Fueled by his restored faith in humanity and inspired by Superman’s selfless act, Bruce Wayne enlists the help of his newfound ally, Diana Prince, to face an even greater enemy,” reads the synopsis. “Together, Batman and Wonder Woman work quickly to find and recruit a team of metahumans to stand against this newly awakened threat....
This Killjoys review contains spoilers. Killjoys Season 4 Episode 10 “I think I prefer regular, bitchy Dutch to creepy, nice Dutch.” Killjoys showrunner Adam Barken takes a bold step with the spellbinding season four finale “Sporemaggedon,” leaving viewers simultaneously thrilled and a bit confused heading into the show’s final run. Nevertheless, in this case, the startling final sequence sets up an intriguing paradigm shift that not only shuffles the relationship deck but establishes an impending good vs evil showdown within the context of a strikingly changed set of circumstances....
This Killjoys review contains spoilers. Killjoys Season 5 Episode 8 “How exactly do you plan on turning these violent felons into freedom fighters?” Let’s be honest; “Don’t Stop Beweaving” probably doesn’t make the list of best Killjoys’ episodes. That said, as usual, there’s still a lot to like about a chapter that flounders a bit with its prison story and then rebounds nicely with Zeph’s homecoming and D’avin’s matchmaking. Though some scenes feel as if they’ve been included merely for effect, despite this minor flaw, Killjoys succeeds because of its richly drawn and wonderfully charismatic characters....
One of last year’s most popular anime is getting a second season, and it’s already almost here, as it was revealed that Komi Can’t Communicate’s sophomore season would be arriving early next month. To be exact, the anime is set to begin broadcasting in the west on Apr. 6, 2022, though only in sub format at the moment. Komi Can’t Communicate took the anime world by storm when it debuted last year, as many fell in love with its unique presentation, storylines, and characters....
Gears of War creator Cliff Bleszinski aka Dude Huge aka Cliffy B’s latest game Lawbreakers has broken cover, launching with a trailer that demands to know whether you’re skilled AF. Probably not, Cliffy, but I have a good heart. The trailer, with its edgy music, super-fast pacing and intense shooting, is not something for those with a low response rate. But it looks like it could be fun either way....
This Legends of Tomorrow review contains spoilers. Legends of Tomorrow Season 4 Episode 14: Nip/Stuck Everything about “Nip/Stuck” was down the middle Legends of Tomorrow fun. A bottle episode that shows character growth, some workplace comedy, light time travel nonsense, Matt Ryan in a terrible wig. All good! Nothing spectacular, but the show’s been running hot lately and meeting-but-not-exceeding the very high bar you set yourself is still doing great work!...

Shine City. A place packed with funky beats, colorful characters, and an illegal underground ball game known as the Lethal League. Originally, Lethal League released as a 2D tug-of-war speedball game in August 2014. It immediately secured a rabid following for its high energy gameplay and sold relatively well. Fans have wanted more ever since, and in September, the sequel was announced. Now, Lethal League is back, not with a simple spark, but with a Blaze....
Zelda games tend to follow a pretty rigid formula when it comes to their plots. There’s some form of Link who’s supposed to fight Ganon, there’s some form of Ganon who’s supposed to fight Link, and there’s some form of Zelda who’s either kidnapped, in peril, or occasionally might be doing something cool. Then Link gathers a whole bunch of fun Ganon-busting tools, goes to some sort of cursed fortress/castle, and usually kills Ganon so good that he stays down for at least a 100 years or so....
Here at Jelly Deals and Eurogamer we’re looking for the best deals on games, consoles, and accessories, and we’ve spotted a huge saving on a gaming headset from Logitech that is well worth grabbing during the Prime Early Access sale. US shoppers can get the G Pro X for $100, which is a smaller discount of 23 per cent, but you don’t need to be a Prime member to get the discount....

More info on Deck13’s upcoming sci-fi action RPG will be revealed at Gamescom next month, publisher Focus Home Interactive has announced. The as-yet-untitled game promises to feature “innovative combat mechanics and an original character progression system based on modular upgrades gained through tight, visceral combat”, and is due for release on PS4, Xbox One and PC in 2017.

Mafia 3 has been patched to version 1.01 on PC, unlocking the previously capped frame rate with options for 30, 60 and unlimited frames-per-second, but Steam users remain unhappy with the game’s general performance. 4,136 of the game’s 9,000 Steam reviews are negative, with the poor reviews continuing to roll in even after the game update. “Mafia 3 has crashed on me multiple times , it’s good that they unlocked the FPS controlls and I have unlimited but after 5 hours of game time I have exited my game only too come back and my save file was completley corrupted and wanted me too start from the begining again,” explains one angry gamer....
Magic: The Gathering is a fast-paced game, full of action and excitement at every turn. Part of the reason for this snappy pace of play is due to the existence of instant type cards, spells that players can cast even if isn’t their turn. These can accomplish a wide variety of feats, from countering your opponent’s plays to gaining more mana to dealing with threats on the board. Over the course of Magic’s history, there have been numerous instant spells printed, and while most of them have been decent, a few stand out from the pack....
