Announced only a few days ago, the Capcom Beat 'Em Up Bundle drops today for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch. This collection of classic Capcom beat 'em up titles, a couple of which never made it to consoles back when they were released, allows for friends near and far to team up once more to beat up some baddies.
Warhammer 40,000: Inquisitor - Martyr has been out for a month now on the PC and will be out on consoles soon (more on that in a bit). Yesterday, developer Neocore Game dropped an update that adds a new mode, called "Warzone," to the title and it is intended to give endgame players a way to get better gear and new skills (that can be used in the mode). It kind of looks like a mix between a "Survival" mode and Rifts from Diablo III.
Neocore and BigBen have announced that the release of Warhammer 40,000: Inquisitor - Martyr for Xbox One and PlayStation 4 has been delayed. The game, previously scheduled to release alongside the PC version on June 5, will now release later on July 5. The PC version is still scheduled for the previously mentioned release date next Tuesday.
Yesterday, Bandai Namco tweeted out that Dark Souls: Remastered would not be arriving on the Nintendo Switch at the same time as the PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One versions. Instead, it will now be coming sometime "summer 2018." Perhaps the even worse bit of news here is that the Solaire amiibo is also delayed.... NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
When is a delay not a delay? Apparently, when you have to make a statement to investors during a quarterly earnings call. EA stated yesterday that their forthcoming third-person shooter/action-RPG title, Anthem, would now have a 2019 release instead of the original 2018 date that was given during last year's E3.
Some of you may have been looking forward to some old-school gaming in 2017 with the release of ToeJam and Earl: Back in the Groove, but you will have to hold your horses as the game is now delayed until 2018.
A couple weeks back Epic Games teased that a "big update" for Fortnite would be coming soon and include a number of tweaks/balances/QoL fixes, as well as a new "survival" mode. That update, titled "Survive the Storm," is here... at least, that was the original plan.
Microsoft is delaying the release of Crackdown 3 on the Xbox One and PC from Nov. 7, 2017 to spring 2018, the company told Polygon in an official email. The game was revealed at E3 2014 but has since been mostly a no-show to the gaming public. Many were worried about the state of the game, and it looks like that includes publisher Microsoft.
Were you excited to finally check out the final version of ARK: Survival Evolved next week? Yeah, well, got some bad news for you. You'll have to wait until the end of August now... you know, when all the video games are coming out.
If you were looking forward to checking out Fable Fortune, the (at some point) free-to-play CCG from former Lionhead Studio devs, this week, then you'll have to wait just a little bit longer. In a blog post late last week, Flaming Fowl Studios stated that it had to be delayed a couple weeks due to "an unexpected administration hiccup."
Alas, it looks like we have quite the waiting period for Overkill's The Walking Dead FPS. According to a recent press release (which your intrepid staff painstakingly translated from Swedish to English with the help of Google), the game's release window has been shoved ever so slightly to the back half of 2018.
Sonic Mania, the upcoming game from Sega and Christian Whitehead, has been delayed for an undisclosed amount of time.
After the closed beta wrapped up last week, Space Hulk: Deathwing developer Streum On got some significant feedback from all those players about the state of the game. In order to address some of the bigger concerns, like slow loading times, better interfaces/menus, and various other bug fixes, they need a little more time. Specifically, one week.
