New My Hero Academia One’s Justice screenshots show off Tomura Shigaraki

Bandai Namco recently released a new batch of screenshots for My Hero Academia One’s Justice that showed off a new character joining the game’s cast: Tomura Shigaraki.

Leader of the League of Villains, Tomura Shigaraki uses is “Decay” quirk to make his opponents rot. In game, this means that every hit from it starts a countdown to decide the target’s fate. Getting four consecutive hits of this move will immediately bring their health down to zero.

In addition to this, the screenshots also show off more of the game’s “Sidekick System”. This system basically works like the assist characters system in other fighting games, with players able to select a “sidekick” who they can call on to provide support with the press of a button.

Here’s Bandai Namco’s official description of them.

Tomura Shigaraki

The leader of the League of Villains is Tomura Shigaraki! Using his quirk “Decay,” he will make his opponents rot and won’t hesitate to destroy anyone who stands in his way. For every consecutive hit of his special skill, a countdown starts to decide your opponent’s fate! When this special attack hits 4-times in a row, it will automatically decrease the opponent’s HP to 0!

Sidekick System

In the new Sidekick System feature, players will cooperate with two sidekicks in a fight turning the tide of battle! They can pair with a character of their choice and with one button they will receive various support from them. This is a perfect way to increase your odds in battle by creating devastating combos!

You can check out the screenshots of Tomura Shigaraki and the “Sidekick System” below.

– Logitech G560 Gaming Speaker System: Let There Be Light

Logitech has been making award winning speakers longer than most of us have been PC gamers. If you’re reading this, there’s a good chance you’ve used a pair yourself. Today, we’re investigating a “first” for the company with the Logitech G650 Gaming Speaker System with LightSync. What exactly is a gaming speaker system? Join us as we find out in our official review.

The Smash Box controller will be legal at Evo 2018

Ever since it’s inception, Hit Box’s Smash Box has faced an uphill battle when it comes to acceptance in tournaments for Super Smash Bros. games. This is despite the merits of the Smash Box (and other similar all-button controllers), including allowing players with otherwise career-ending injuries to continue playing. Now, the tides seem to be turning, as the Smash Box has just been deemed legal in the biggest tournament of them all — Evo 2018.

In a recent tweet, Evo’s Joey “Mr Wizard” Cuellar announced that Smash Boxes will be legal to use at Evo 2018. Any Smash Box used at the event will simply have to comply with two conditions: they should not have software or hardware macros, and they should only have only one direction or input mapped for each button.

For anyone familiar with the general rules for controllers at most tournaments (not just Evo), the restrictions are basically the same ones for any other controller, be it an arcade stick or pad. This announcement (alongside the fact that it will also be legal at CEO in June) is great news for both Hit Box and players who want to use the Smash Box. This opens the doors for it being allowed in other tournaments as well.
