The multiverse for fictional characters is vast, with different characters belonging to various media conglomerates. In gaming, it’s a popular trend nowadays for these companies to gather up their most popular IPs and throw them together on a platform fighter. No complaints here, though, especially in the case of MultiVersus: a joyful foray into the genre while bringing life to numerous Warner Bros. characters. I’ve been missing getting into the zany action of the game but, luckily for us, a MultiVersus Open Beta is coming later this month....

Turns out that Nathan Fillion isn’t in the Uncharted movie after all (well, at least as far as we know), but he has unveiled a brilliant, 15-minute fan film that pays tribute to Naughty Dog’s globe-trotting adventure franchise. The actor teased some sort of Uncharted announcement last week, although at the time everyone thought he would be involved in the actual film in some way. Despite this, his tribute pretty much has everything that makes Uncharted so great, condensed into roughly how long it takes you to finish a chapter of one of the games ....

Despite the various modes of transportation offered in the game, the Golf Cart is the most stylish way to go about the open-world....

Nintendo has released a new trailer for upcoming detective game Deadly Premonition 2: A Blessing in Disguise – giving us some detail on the setting of Agent York Morgan’s newest adventure. Deadly Premonition 2 swaps out the Twin Peaks-inspired Greenvale, Washington for a more Southern-US flavoured setting of Le Carré, Louisana. Taking place both before and after the events of Deadly Premonition 1 – the game’s dual timelines will actually see you taking on the role of two protagonists – one for each of the game’s different eras, with York’s investigation in the past dovetailing with Agent Aaliyah Davis’ own investigation in the present....

Julian Gerighty came on to Ubisoft’s E3 stage today to be very serious about how super serious the stakes are in The Division 2. We know from the reveal at Microsoft’s conference that Tom Clancy’s The Division 2 is set in Washington, about six or seven months after the outbreak. America is now tearing itself apart and the players are ’the last line of defence.’ As well as super grim post-apocalypse cinematic trailer, we got another new gameplay trailer and confirmation that we’ll have eight player raids....

A recent profile of Nintendo by Time Magazine includes excerpts from a rare English-language interview conducted with Nintendo’s president since 2018, Shuntaro Furukawa. In it, Furukawa confirms what many Nintendo fans have likely already thought to be true: Nintendo’s focus in succeeding as a company is on innovation. Nintendo doesn’t innovate solely for innovation’s sake, however. The second prong to the company’s strategy is its considerable Intellectual Property. It’s innovation, though, that allows its recognizable characters to shine, time and time again, across generations....

Nintendo announced previously that the company’s online app would launch on July 21, the release date for Splatoon 2. It’s clear that the app has gone live before that date.

In Nintendo’s latest earnings report they confirmed this, but also stated that ‘Nintendo of America will present further information on our plans at a later date,’ making it sound like we’ll get something like the Nintendo Treehouse livestream from last year, or a Nintendo Direct style presentation. Sales figures were also announced, with 1-2-Switch nearing one million copies sold, and Super Bomberman R surpassing the 500k number....
