No Man’s Sky – Sean Murray Announces XBox One Release Date

If you’ve been waiting to play No Man’s Sky on XBox One, you’ll be happy to hear that it’s headed your way on July 24th. The announcement was made by Hello Games’ Sean Murray during today’s Inside XBox. In addition to the XBox One launch, Murray also confirmed that “a full multiplayer experience” is coming too. “This is something that I wish we could’ve done sooner, but I’m so glad it’s happening,” Murray said. PC & PlayStation 4 players will also get the update for free.

Jason “Mew2King” Zimmerman is working on a book about his life and Super Smash Bros.

The story of a man who became a king and rose to become a Super Smash Bros. god.

Jason “Mew2King” Zimmerman, one of the five Super Smash Bros. “gods”, has had a few exciting developments recently. He’s coming off a huge win at Beyond the Summit, an invitational that included 16 most skilled players. The Smash legend could barely believe that he had won.

Last week, Mew2King announced a personal project that he’s been working on for over a year. The project is an autobiography, covering his early life, his journey into his teens and the foray into gaming, leading up to the present. In the announcement video, Zimmerman states that the first draft is about 400 pages. A release window is currently not planned.

This could be a great highlight of a big personality in the Smash scene. The closest book to this kind is probably Daigo Umehara’s The Will to Keep Winning. We’re looking forward to the insight contained in Mew2King’s future work!

BornFree interviews Lord Knight, the anime fighter extraordinaire

Having recently visited Next Level, New York City’s premiere fighting game meetup spot, BornFree took the opportunity to interview several of their mainstays. One of the must-talk-to folks there is Lord Knight, a premiere anime fighting game player who has mastered several games, consistently places high at many events, and regularly produces content.

His name comes from his obsession with Fire Emblem, one of his favorite games of all time. Over the years, Lord Knight became famous for his performance in many anime games, even though he started in the Super Smash Bros. community. He discovered a lot of tech in games from the BlazBlue and Persona series. The conversation focuses on Dragon Ball FighterZ, which is Lord Knight’s main game currently. BornFree asks LK to compare his old team (Android 18, Kid Buu, Frieza) to his current one (Kid Buu, Cell, Android 16). Then, they turn to talking about the ramifications of the latest DBFZ balance patch, which, in LK’s opinion, is not as drastic as some make it out to be.

Check out the conversation below — and also take a look at BornFree’s interview with WongNation|LostSoul and HookGangGawd.
