Online community Dojos are coming to Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition on September 25

Obviously, the Saikyo-ryu dojo will be the strongest one.

A lot of new SFV content is coming on September 25! Along with new Darkstalkers and Halloween costumes, Capcom just revealed a new “Dojo” feature on Shadaloo C.R.I., Capcom’s official source of SFV information updated by the development team.

Every player who syncs their SFV account on the official Shadaloo C.R.I. website and joins a Dojo will receive a new Dojo stage for free! The free Dojo stage starts off with the look of a traditional martial arts dojo with an open area, wooden accents, and rays of light shining through the windows. However, you can customize the Dojo stage to fit your personal preferences! Once you have joined a Dojo, you will have access to your Dojo menu, which allows you to customize your personal stage with a large variety of objects that can be unlocked — such as vehicles, instruments, sports items, plants, statues, and much more. You can obtain Dojo stage items in a variety of ways, but most of them have specific unlock requirements, such as ranking high in the Dojo rankings, or getting them through a separate set of readings in Menat’s Fighting Chance.

What is a Dojo exactly?

A Dojo is a community hub with a Grand Master and Dojo members. The person who creates the Dojo will automatically become the Grand Master, but that title can be handed over to another member if they do not wish to be the leader. Upon creating the Dojo, the Grand Master can name the Dojo, set the Dojo emblem, write an introductory blurb about the Dojo, set the maximum number of members, set who can approve a member application, and even create a flyer to attract members!

You can only apply for one Dojo at a time. You can search for them under a player’s Fighter ID, the Dojo ID, or other conditions. After joining a Dojo, you can view a list of Dojo members and their profiles, their favorite characters, the Dojo rankings. You can even link your Dojo to your Twitter account.

There are also Dojo rankings. In the main Dojo menu, you can view “Member Ranking” to see how all members stand in the dojo. Every member will automatically have points applied to them upon playing Arcade, Survival, Extra Battle, Ranked Match, Casual Match, and Battle Lounge; the more you play, the more points you’ll get. Every point obtained by every member will factor into the larger Dojo rankings where all Dojos are displayed on a leaderboard. If your Dojo ends each month as one of the top ranks, everyone in that Dojo will receive a special decorative object to show off. The Dojo rankings will begin in October 2018. Check out Capcom-Unity for more details.

Dark Magician, Dark Magician Girl, and Slifer the Sky Dragon make an appearance in Jump Force, plus SSGSS Goku confirmation

Yami Yugi’s famous Duel Monsters are summoned into Jump Force as special moves.

After Yami Yugi’s announcement for the upcoming manga-brawler Jump Force, many were curious as to how the King of Games would take to battle. Bandai Namco Entertainment answered this question by releasing screenshots of the Pharaoh alter-ego with three of his most signature monsters, the trusty Dark Magician and Dark Magician Girl, alongside the Egyptian God Card, Slifer the Sky Dragon.

It won’t be long until a trailer is released showing how Yami Yugi battles with his Spell cards and monsters, but until then, check out these duel-tastic screens below. Take notice of the design of the physical cards themselves — they are designed just like they were in the original manga with the red and black print.

In other Jump Force news, stay on the lookout for Goku’s bluest transformation. Bandai Namco Entertainment teased and confirmed the Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan (Super Saiyan Blue) form to be included in Goku’s skillset, but there hasn’t been any gameplay showing how the anime icon powers up beyond his traditional yellow-haired look. Hopefully, this means Vegeta will also be able to transform into SSGSS, he’s not very happy whenever he’s shown up by his biggest rival.

In the meantime, Bandai Namco Entertainment released promotional art showcasing the title’s big three characters, Son Goku, Monkey D. Luffy, and Naruto Uzumaki in their powered-up forms.

Get your deck ready and keep your power levels focused for more information. Tokyo Game Show 2018 is just beginning, and there are sure to be more announcements to come. Jump Force releases in 2019 for Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC.

Android 17 is confirmed to be the next DLC character for Dragon Ball FighterZ

Long speculated to be coming to the game as a DLC character, thanks to some data mining (and the fact that his model is already in the game, as part of Android 18’s moveset), Android 17 has been officially confirmed to be coming to Dragon Ball FighterZ in the latest issue of V-Jump.

The issue (a scan of which you can see below) states that Android 17 is set to arrive in the game later this month, and will have special moves such as the “Barrier Explosion” where he generates a barrier around himself and does a dash attack, as well as his “End Game” which sees him go behind his opponents to land continuous attacks. His Meteor Attack on the other hand is the “Super Electric Strike”, where he builds energy around his hand, before shooting it at his opponent.

Alongside Android 17, a new stage, the “Space Arena”, will be added to PlayStation 4 and Xbox One versions (and likely the PC version – V-Jump doesn’t cover PC, so it wasn’t mentioned in the article). The Switch version on the other hand will receive this new stage at a later date.

In addition to this, Z Capsules featuring Halloween-themed lobby characters and stamps will be available for a limited time until late November.
