Nintendo Announces Return of Nintendo World Championships After 25 Year Hiatus

After dropping out of the limelight for 25 years the Nintendo World Championships will make a triumphant return at E3
During a 3 day event in 1990 Nintendo held their last Nintendo World Championships event in Dallas to kick off a 30 city promo tour. Players went head to head in games like Chip & Dale’s Rescue Rangers, Astyanax, Batman, Robocop, and Super Mario Bros. 3. All fighting for the coveted Nintendo World Championship Cartridge. The event was a precursor to the esports championships we know and love today. A part of the gaming world Nintendo has been sorely lacking in over the last 25 years and something they are ready to change.
Today Nintendo announced that the Nintendo World Championships would be coming out of their 25 year hiatus, returning at E3 on Sunday June 14th. On their E3 website the company said “For the first time in 25 years, some of Nintendo’s biggest fans will get to go head-to-head in a gaming showdown for the ages. Join a worldwide audience by watching the live stream on Sunday, June 14,” The qualifying competitions will kick off on May 30 with Nintendo promising details on how to enter soon.
Unfortunately there was no word from the Big N about what games players will be competing in during the Nintendo World Championships. Although Super Smash Bros. is sure to be at the front of the line, especially with how popular it’s become in esports. No matter what games are up for the championships the event is sure to draw in thousands of participants and finally bring Nintendo into the esports world. The Big N has been oddly absent from the competitive gaming scene, with its fans making a stronger push to create a competitive scene for Nintendo’s games.
The Nintendo World Championships are also going to rev gamers up for Nintendo’s E3 press conference on Tuesday June 16th where they plan to reveal details on upcoming games and more. They plan on keeping that momentum going on the trade show floor through its “Treehouse” stream all they way through June 18th.

PAYDAY 3 Developer Announces D&D Live Service Multiplayer

The Starbreeze cooperative multiplayer game Project Baxter is expected to follow PAYDAY. The official Dungeons & Dragons logo is on Starbreeze. However, we do not expect the studio to revere RPG settings like Larian did with Baldur’s Gate 3.
Starbreeze will develop and publish Project Baxter in 2026 for all major platforms. The company says it “will carry the signature Starbreeze game cornerstones of cooperative multiplayer, lifetime commitment through a Games as a Service model, community engagement, and a larger than life experience.”
Forgive the skepticism, but PAYDAY 3, Starbreeze’s latest release, lagged behind due to server issues that the CEO had to apologize for, taking two months to release the heist shooter’s first patch. It’s a disappointing story that may have gone unnoticed in a year with The Lord of the Rings: Gollum, Kong: Rise of Skull Island, and The Walking Dead: Destinies.
Would you like a Starbreeze multiplayer live service D&D game? Is this to capitalize on the setting’s moment between Baldur’s Gate and the surprising good Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves?

Free Soccer Simulator Finally More Single Player on eFootball, But Not Like League

Konami promised that free-to-play soccer sim eFootball would add PES’ massively popular Master League mode, but while this month’s v3.20 update will add more solo content, you’ll have to wait. My League lets you play full seasons as a single player with changing weather and exclusive rewards to reduce the wait.
You’ll replace a real team from your league, like England or Italy. The gacha system unlocks players that you’ll use to fight the AI and win the table. Play through the mode as many times as you want, with custom cutscenes and other features to track your progress. It all seems like a way to make dream team gameplay appealing to offline players.
Online play is also getting better. A new tier system will match you with players of similar skill levels, and co-op will soon let you join strangers instead of friends. You can use emojis to discuss your matches’ successes and failures or strategize with new allies.
We assume new cards with perks will allow Konami to create “rarer” versions of players when they perform certain real-life feats. A new login feature will include a penalty-taking minigame where you must score a goal to climb a ladder and unlock in-game rewards like virtual currency. For now, that’s it.
The critically panned game improves, but not as fast as former PES fans would like. The gameplay is good, and there are more things to do, but without that meaty single-player mode, old-school franchise fans will always rank it lower. Konami should revive one of the best solo sports game modes soon.
