Dauntless – Islands Shift Through the Maelstrom in ‘Scheduled Chaos’

The Dauntless site has been updated with a new blog post that reveals the “shifting chaos” of the playable locations that come and go over time. At any given moment, there are three islands visible and playable on the map. One, Dyadic Drift, is a permanent resident and remains in place. The other two are “rotating islands” that are available for a specific period of time before leaving the rotation until an indistinct point in the future.

Catch some extended footage of Dead or Alive 6 from E3 2018

With the announcement of Dead or Alive 6 prior to E3 2018, people have been hungry for more on this bold new entry in the series. For those looking for more footage, Wccftech has uploaded a new 15-minute video of raw gameplay onto their YouTube channel.

As stated above, the video below is a straight up capture of the game in its current state — no commentary, no cuts. This is the closest one can get to actually playing the game, without access to the test builds.

With this, we get a view of things that would normally get cut out in more-edited videos, such as menus and interfaces. One thing this reveals is that the build at E3 was of the PC version, indicating that it might be the lead platform this time out.

That’s not to say that the gameplay isn’t noteworthy; for one, we get a look at some forced-tech combos that have returned in this installment. We also get to see the game running with the easier, 3-way hold option for beginning players.

Dead or Alive 6 is set to launch on PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One in early 2019.

Super Baby Vegeta seeks total domination in Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 DLC Pack 7

The ultimate Tuffle Saiyan warrior finally blasts into Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2

Super Baby Vegeta, one of the most popular Dragon Ball GT characters, is being added to the ceaselessly expanding Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2. The announcement came via this month’s V-Jump magazine and was shared by Twitter user, YonkouProductions. A full translation for the V-Jump page has yet to be released, but you can take a quick look at the character’s special attacks in the scan below.

Until now, Baby Vegeta has only been featured in the Xenoverse series as a boss character in his Golden Great Ape form. While this was certainly a curious decision, Xenoverse 2 had most major Dragon Ball GT characters at launch; its great fans will finally get to play as the Tuffle titan in his iconic Super Baby Vegeta 2 transformation.

Looking back at how the most recent DLC packs have greatly added to the game, there are bound to be plenty of additional characters, modes, and features added to the title with the coming expansions. Expect additional details for the seventh DLC pack for Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 soon.

Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 is available on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PC, and Nintendo Switch.
