Here’s the first 10 minutes of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate’s “World of Light” adventure mode

One of the recent trailers for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate has gotten more than a few players curious about the game’s “World of Light” adventure mode. The Infinity War-esque premise of taking out most of the cast (save for Kirby) has proved quite compelling. Now, for those who can’t wait, GameXplain has shared a video showcasing the first 10 minutes of the “World of Light” mode.

The video below shows Kirby going around an overworld map leading to fights with various spirits, representing characters from various franchises. This also shows that most, if not all of the encounters in the “World of Light” are straight up one-on-one fights, unlike the platforming stages of the “Subspace Emissary” mode from Super Smash Bros. Brawl.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate launches on Switch on December 7.

Chuwi Hi9 Plus 2-in-1 Tablet Review: Incredible Value

Every now and again, we come across a product or company so surprising, it makes us wonder how we’ve gone so long without knowing about it. That’s been the case with Chuwi, a tech brand out of China, producing some of the most budget friendly, high quality tablets on the market. We’ve already looked at the Hi9 Air, but let’s dig in and find out what you get with a flagship tablet from Chuwi.

Toshimichi Mori may be teasing a new BlazBlue title in his 10th anniversary message

Today marks the 20th anniversary of the BlazBlue franchise, with the first game BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger first hitting Japanese arcades back in November 20, 2008. As part of the celebration, series creator Toshimichi Mori left a message on the official site that may be hinting at a new title in the franchise.

In his message, Mori states “For everyone looking forward to BlazBlue in the future, I hope to once again return to the feelings I had 10 years ago and impart the memories of battle into a new BlazBlue…” He continues saying “Specifically, with things like BlazBlue: Alternative Dark War (the smartphone game) and ‘[Redacted] [Redacted]Blue (Temporary).’ Please look forward to them.”

It’s that last line that’s the most interesting as he seems to straight up drop a redacted title for an in development BlazBlue game. It becomes even more interesting when looking at the original Japanese, where the title reads ○○ッ○○○○・○○○○ブルー, showing the exact number of characters in the title (as well as the katakana for “tsu”).

Of course, this could be anything related to the BlazBlue franchise, and not another fighting game. That said, the timing of the tease with the series’ anniversary seems hard to ignore. We’ll likely learn more about this in the near future — maybe even at ArcRevo Japan this weekend.

Gaming is an Addiction

If you look closely at the definition of Gambling Disorder (6C50) and Gaming Disorder (6C51) they mirror each other almost identically. Gambling Disorder or Pathological Gambling first showed up in the ICD in 2015. So what took so long for Gaming Disorder to be added to the ICD if it is at its core, it is Gambling Disorder? Do we have the rampant loot box craze to blame or was it just a matter of time before it was added?
