Maximilian breaks down Trunks in the Gamescom build of Dragon Ball FighterZ

One of the more popular characters in the cast of Dragon Ball FighterZ — and the Dragon Ball franchise in general — is Trunks, the half-Saiyan warrior from the future. For fans of the purple-haired warrior, Maximilian has put out a new video that takes a closer look at Trunks as he appears in the Gamescom build of Dragon Ball FighterZ.

In the video below, Max goes over some of his combos, including both light and medium attack auto-combos, as well as his unique specials. More importantly, he goes over how he feels a bit more difficult to use than the characters in the E3 build, in part due to his lack options for adding damage in the air with meter. Beyond this, he also goes over some of his unique properties — including how he may be able to generate a lot of pressure when rushing his opponent down.

Additionally, he hints at how the game as a whole has changed from the E3 build, with some of the more abusable things in that build heavily changed.

Pokkén Tournament DX demo goes live today for Nintendo Switch

Following the conclusion of the Pokkén World Championships, Nintendo announced that Pokkén Tournament DX would receive a free demo on the Nintendo Switch. While a demo made sense, it was up in the air as to when the demo would drop: no date or details accompanied the announcement.

Well, we have a date and time now, at least! It’s today, 9:00 PM PDT.

Its still unclear what exactly will be in the demo (presumably at least one of the new characters would be playable), but the quick announcement is good news for those looking to see how will DX preforms on the Switch. Its also a good sign Nintendo is willing to promote the game, and build off the momentum from a world event.

– Characters and the World They Live In: Character Creation

When it comes to playing games or MMO’s, really anyone that allows the creation of a character we all have our different process when we go about creating those characters. Sometimes we choose try to reflect ourselves, maybe how we feel or just want to make something fun. I like to take the method of creating a character with the game world in mind. In a way this is coming at the creation process from a role-play standpoint even if I don’t choose to role-play.
