Making of Marvel’s Avengers Part 3 November 30, 2020

I honestly didn’t think more of these videos were coming after the release of Part 2, but low and behold this morning, we got the release of Part 3. Here’s a closer look at Marvel’s Avengers. Don’t worry, while the game has been out for a while, there aren’t any spoilers.

Honestly, I was disappointed by this video. It comes off more as a game overview than a deeper look behind the scenes. The game is out, there isn’t much reason to continue to produce game overviews, the game pretty much speaks for itself.

Marvel’s Avengers is out now for PC, Xbox One, Stadia and PS4. It’s coming next year to PS5 and Xbox Series X/S.

Universal Studios Japan Announces Launch Date for Super Nintendo World November 30, 2020

Super Nintendo World was officially announced almost one year ago, with a release date of this past summer. It looked incredible, a way for tourists to step inside the screen of their video game system and really interact with the world of Super Mario. However, due to the current world events, that opening was postponed, and other than some food and merchandise information, we only had a vague idea of what would be coming when Universal Japan finally gave the okay to open.

Today, we have our first real, tangible, official look (no CGI) at what is coming at Super Nintendo World, AND we have it’s official opening date. Buckle your seat belt, we will be racing Mario Kart, and this time it is for reals.

Super Nintendo World is planning to open at Universal Studios Japan on February 4th, 2021.

Cyberpunk 2077 PlayStation 4 Gameplay November 24, 2020

The majority of footage we’ve seen from Cyberpunk 2077 up until this point has been from either the PC version of the game or the older and newer Xbox platforms. That changes today. Today, they uploaded the first footage I’ve seen from the game’s PS4 version. One part is sourced from the PS4 Pro, the other is from the PS5, running the game in backwards compatibility mode.

Cyberpunk 2077 is coming December 10th, 2020 to PC, Xbox One and PS4. It’s coming to PS5 and Xbox Series X/S next year.

Miles Morales – Family: Behind the Scenes November 23, 2020

Earlier today, PlayStation released this rare look behind the scenes of Spider-Man: Miles Morales. This video focuses on Miles and his family, who (if you’ve seen my let’s play of the early portions of the game) are an important part of this new game. Take a look:

Spider-Man: Miles Morales is out now for the PS4 and PS5.

NEO: The World Ends With You Announced November 23, 2020

If there is a game from the DS era that has a larger following than The World Ends With You, I have not seen it. Now, we all will be seeing a new game in The World Ends With You franchise, and I have the trailer for it right here!

NEO: The World Ends With You is coming Summer 2021 to Nintendo Switch and PS4.

Marvel’s Spider-Man PS4 Updated With PS5 Skins Including Amazing Spider-Man Film Suit November 22, 2020

The guys at Insomniac really game through for us this weekend. The three (previously) PS5-exclusive skins that were created for the PS5 remastered edition of the game, including the highly demanded suit based on the suit designed for the Amazing Spider-Man films, have just been added to the PS4 version of the game in a free patch.

The new patch, version 1.19, isn’t very big. If you’ve already had 1.18 installed it should only clock in at around 348MB. The new update will also allow players to transfer their PS4 save progress to the PS5 remastered version. This was a feature that is already offered in Miles Morales at launch, so it’s nice to see it return here.

Spider-Man is out now exclusively for the PS4. Spider-Man: Remastered is out now for the PS5 as part of the Spider-Man: Miles Morales Ultimate Bundle.

Shenmue III Released on GOG and Steam November 20, 2020

PC players upset at the exclusivity deal Epic Games Store has held over several titles can rest a little easier today. One of the biggest EGS-exclusive titles has just announced they are now offering their game on alternate PC distribution platforms including GOG.com and Steam starting today. The game I’m talking about is Shenmue III.

Unlike previous EGS exclusives like Control, Shenmue III was crowdfunded by fans…and the fans who funded the game were (to put it mildly) displeased when the developers announced their intention to only support the EGS PC marketplace at launch. Other developers have since cited the crowd backlash of that announcement has prevented them from accepting similar deals with Epic.

Regardless, if you don’t have a copy of Shenmue III on PC yet you can purchase the game right now with its season pass at a discounted rate from your digital retailer of choice.

Shenmue III is out now for PC and PS4.
