The SRK Rollback: Best of September 14-20, 2018

Welcome to the Rollback: a frame-by-frame look back at our past week’s most notable news — and our favorite SRK articles — from September 14 to September 20, 2018!


Zavian “mushin_Z” Sildra, Editor-in-Chief:

Frame 1:
scvi soulcalibur vi raphael reveal 2
Raphael shows the SoulCalibur VI roster the finer points of fencing in his official reveal trailer

OK, Namco — you’ve caught up to your leaks for SoulCalibur VI. Let’s see if you can surprise us with the next one! In all seriousness, Raphael’s a favorite of mine, and I’m glad to see him sneering at the SCVI roster.

Frame 2:
dragon_ball_super_android_17
Android 17 is confirmed to be the next DLC character for Dragon Ball FighterZ

Another example of leaks spoiling reveals long in advance, it was fully expected to see 17 coming to the game alongside Cooler. How he’ll play is still yet to be revealed, however.

Frame 3:
sfv dojo sample
Online community Dojos are coming to Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition on September 25

With as poor as the online experience is for SFVAE, this does not seem to be the direction in which SFV needs to move. I am curious to see how this feature will play out, but I would rather see some nitty-gritty fixes, dammit.

Frame 4:
playstation_classic
PlayStation Classic mini-console announced, comes pre-loaded with 20 games — including Tekken 3

The possibilities for what we could see included in this device are tantalizing for those of us that spent a lot of time with the pre-Dual Shock PlayStation; it was an intriguing era. In the remaining fifteen unnamed games, could we see Einhander? Final Fantasy Tactics? I.Q.: Intelligent Qube?!

Frame 5:
mvci_captain_marvel_cg
On the game’s first anniversary, Stumblebee explores the lead-up and reception of Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite

This video is both detailed and fair in its look at what Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite got wrong — and what it got right.


Crow_Spaceboy, Assistant Editor:

Frame 1:
fighting_vipers
Fighting Vipers will be coming to PlayStation 4 — as part of Project Judge

I worry sometimes that I am the only soul that would want a new Fighting Vipers. But hey, if Sega remembers that they own this, there’s still hope…

Frame 2:
sc6_azwel
Tons of new SoulCalibur VI footage reveals Lizardman’s moveset, new character slots, Azwel gameplay, and more!

Alright, Okubo. This is your one chance. You better get Lizardman right, or else I’m going to say bad things about your video game on the internet.

Frame 3:
power stone srk
ProviderOfSouls explains the depth and inner workings of Power Stone’s system mechanics

Do you think Capcom even knows how beloved Power Stone is?

Frame 4:
Mega Blaziken Pokken Tournament Featured Image
Here’s BadIntent’s rundown of every Pokkén Tournament DX Major for the remainder of 2018

I think this is a great “news” format that more YouTubers could adopt for a variety of games.

Frame 5:
samurai_shodown_v_special_coming_soon
Storm Collectibles has acquired the license to make Samurai Shodown V Special figures

If I lived the sort of life that allowed me to buy such things, I would not be against having a Gaira figure.

Jagex Reassures Players That No Bank or Credit Card Details Were Compromised

You may remember that one of our biggest stories yesterday was the firing of an Old School Runescape employee, Jed “Mod Jed” Sanderson, after improprieties in his behavior were discovered. As a result of his actions and Jagex’s promise to pursue legal charges against him, players were concerned that financial and personal data was stolen. However, in a new statement today, Jagex reassures its players that no account or financial data was compromised due to Sanderson’s activities.

Bless Online Players Compensated for Nearly 18-Hour Rollback

Players will receive a package of compensatory items including Lumena, a 3-day premium buff, combat points, dungeon points, gold, reign points and full recovery of redeemed paid items (Steam inventory).

ARIKA showed off a new trailer for Fighting EX Layer at the Tokyo Game Show

ARIKA’s presence at the 2018 Tokyo Game Show was mostly about the upcoming physical release of Fighting EX Layer. As part of this, they’ve released a new trailer that they showed off at Konami’s booth at the event.

The trailer below goes over the existing features of Fighting EX Layer — covering all the current characters, including the recently added Pullum Purna and Vulcano Rosso, as well as the game’s Gougi decks. Sadly, it doesn’t offer anything in the way of hints for the upcoming characters, even guest character Terry Bogard.

Fighting EX Layer‘s physical disc release arrives on PlayStation 4 in Japan on December 6, 2018. The digital version of the game itself is already available for purchase over on the PlayStation Store.
