Inside System developing Dark Witch RPG


Posted on May 7, 2016 by Jason Nason

Inside System, who developed both The Legend of Dark Witch games on the Nintendo 3DS eShop, have announced a third game in the series. The game, which is called Brave Dungeon, is a 2D role-playing game. The game is scheduled for release in the Japanese 3DS eShop sometime in 2016. Both of the first two games were localized and released in North America by Circle Entertainment, so chances are good that this game will make it to North America later this year, or possibly early next year.

Random Xbox Live User Given Access To Partial Halo Wars 2 Test Build


Posted on May 6, 2016 by Rae Michelle Richards

Halo Salute
Yesterday Redditor OniYsoni posted a brief clip of an early network test build for Microsoft’s upcoming console RTS Halo Wars 2, running on his retail Xbox One. The build that OniYsoni had access too wouldn’t progress further than the creative assembly / 343i logos and the game’s main menu, which are described as being stylistically inline with the first title. After posting the YouTube clip and accompany off screen shots OniYsoni lost access to the internal Halo Wars 2 build which clocked in at about 18GB, a little too big to be just a series of menus.

Posted on May 5, 2016 by Rae Michelle Richards

We didn’t really have a good idea about what DOOM’s single player would be like, outside of the DOOM single player demos from last year’s E3. That all changed with the recent 2 hour live-stream hosted by Bethesda where we learned new details like the fact that sometimes, especially on custom Snap-map game types enemies will fight amongst themselves before getting to you. Some fans have described the gameplay as “fairly large open sections with enemies sprinkled into them”, and after watching a lot of single-player footage I’m in agreement. This might feel like a bit of a step back,
