J-Stars Victory VS + New Gameplay Video Showcases Gon Freecs, Kankichi Ryotsu
J-Stars Victory VS +, the upcoming fighting game launching soon in North America and Europe on PlayStation consoles, features a really huge character roster, which includes many popular characters as well as some less known ones. Most of the promotional material released for the game up until now focused on characters from Naruto, Bleach, Dragon Ball and One Piece but thankfully a new gameplay video showcasing a not all that known character in the West has surfaced online a few hours ago.
Bandai Namco has made available on its official Facebook page a new gameplay video showcasing a match between Gon Freecs from Hunter X Hunter and Kankichi Ryotsu from Kochira Katsushika-ku Kameari Kōen-mae Hashutsujo. This manga series is known not only for being the longest running manga series ever, with around 200 volumes published since serialization began in 1976, but also the best selling one, making Kankichi a rather popular character in Japan.
Another short J-Stars Victory VS + gameplay video has surfaced online a few days ago. The video showcased Monkey D. Luffy, the One Piece series main character, as he unleashes one of his incredibly powerful special moves. Another J-Stars Victory VS + gameplay video released earlier this month also focused on Monkey D. Luffy, showcasing his Story Mode called Dynamic Arc and the characters he will meet during his journey such as his brother Portgas D. Ace, Seiya from Saint Seiya, Korosensei from Assassination Classroom and others.
J-Stars Victory VS has been released in Japan last year on PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Vita. The Western release will come with some new features not found in the original Japanese version such as an Arcade Mode and several balance tweaks. Even though it looked like not all characters from the original Japanese release would be included in the Western one, it’s been confirmed not too long ago that J-Stars Victory VS + will come with the full character roster included in last year’s release.
J-Stars Victory VS + will be released on PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4 and PlayStation Vita on June 26th in Europe. The game will be made avaialable in North America a few days later, on June 30th.
One player found an unusual way to roam Marvel’s Spider-Man 2’s New York City as Venom again. However, intentionally crashing your game during a story segment requires nerves of steel, so we wouldn’t recommend it. Possible Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 spoilers!
UnderTheHood788 explained their method, which involves reaching a cutscene that switches players to Peter. They unplugged their PS5 when the screen blanked while switching to fidelity mode. As the game renders slower, fidelity mode was used. Players get Don’t Be Scared, a mission without an objective, after reloading the last save.
UnderTheHood788 advises, “Wait a bit and go to an unidentified target mission or talon drone mission to become Venom. Reload and become Venom, committing crimes against hunters, the flame, thugs, and even symbiotes. Bases are possible.”
If you like causing carnage, get a move on—Insomniac will spoil the fun in the next update. This indirect approach—what do you think?
On December 7, Ubisoft’s Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora hits PS5. Fans can expect new creatures, characters, and storylines that are influencing other Avatar projects as part of James Cameron’s canon.
Massive Entertainment director Magnus Jansén told IGN that the game’s new Western Frontier region—from plants to Na’vi clans—is now Avatar lore: “The Western Frontier is no less a part of the world of Avatar than what’s in the movies.” Jansén says one of their creations is in an Avatar exhibition, but most excitingly, “there is already some talk about maybe using some of the stuff that we did in the upcoming movies.”
Jon Landau, producer of the Avatar films, said: “I think clans are a perfect thing to someday try to weave into the movies. However, new environments follow. Go and say, “Okay, let’s explore what you did in the video game in the movie.” Frontiers of Pandora introduces the Aranahe, Zeswa, and Kame’tire Na’vi clans.
In addition, Lightstorm VP of franchise development Joshua Izzo teased: “I can say that there are going to be some future sequel elements in Frontiers of Pandora that will pay off when the movie comes out when Avatar 3 comes out in 2025. Because of ’25, careful Avatar fans may want to revisit certain things.
CD Projekt’s live-action Cyberpunk 2077 won’t arrive until 2025. In the company’s latest earnings call, the PM project was only mentioned as not expected in 2024.
During a call with IGN, chief commercial officer Michał Nowakowski stated that the company will continue to promote the game and develop the Cyberpunk IP through activities beyond the game.
Nowakowski said, “We’re not really discussing specifics here, but one of the obvious things that we have announced, not happening next year, but going to be developed or moved in the direction next year, is the project we have announced with Anonymous Content.”
Anonymous Content, which produced Crime & Punishment, True Detective, and Mr. Robot, seems like a good fit to bring Night City’s mean streets to life. We don’t know if the project will be a TV show, movie, game adaptation, or standalone story.
