Month: August 2017

If you’re an online Super Smash Bros. for Wii U player who thinks they have what it takes to compete — and are looking to earn some money — you’re in luck. Circa eSports, through a collaboration with their Smash streamers, have created a free online monthly event for players to fight for a share of a $100 prize pool.

The first event will start today: Friday night at 9:00 PM Eastern time (6:00 PM PDT) and will run through to Sunday, August 19th, and will be streamed exclusively on Circa’s Stream.me channel. As this tournament is being hosted online, you will need to sign up through smash.gg and provide your Wii U friend code to participate.

Just over a month after its release on iOS, Street Fighter IV: Champion Edition receives its first character DLC. Guy, Gouken, and Evil Ryu will become free downloads sometime this week, filling up three of the six empty character slots teased in the game’s original launch trailer.

Anyone can take a close look at the other three empty slots and see that the remaining mystery fighters are likely Juri, Rose, and Elena. It’s safe to presume that these three will feature in the next round of DLC, but for now the details of their future in the mobile game remains a mystery.

This free character DLC puts Street Fighter IV: Champion Edition off to a good start, and gives hope that the game will stay both convenient and affordable. Those interested in buying can still pick it up for $4.99 in the app store.
