Battle royal is “the” thing these days and many games are including it as a secondary game mode. The latest to do so is World of Warships thanks to the addition of Rogue Wave: Sink Them All. Four teams set sail for a post-apocalyptic “desolation-themed port” with destroyers tailed specifically for this event. Captains take the fight to one another as an “enclosing Wall of Fire forces close-quarters brawls” in an effort to be the last ship…er…sailing.
Ryan Bader’s career has gone from strength to strength since his move from the Ultimate Fighting Championship to Bellator MMA, where he has captured the promotion’s heavyweight and light heavyweight titles.
Former UFC lightweight champion Eddie Alvarez has spoken about the expectations he faced ahead of his debut for One Championship after signing a lucrative multiple-bout contract with the promotion.
During a recent press event, Final Fantasy XIV Executive Producer Naoki Yoshida spoke candidly about why the game is not yet on Xbox One. He does not equivocate as he explains that Microsoft has two conditions that prevent porting FFXIV to XB1 with full crossplay capabilities: First, without the ability to chat across platforms, playing an MMO is impossible. Second, players are not allowed to form a guild, link shell or free company, again making MMO play impossible.
Version 1.06 is a big update for fans of Dead Or Alive 6. This update adds the final portion of DLC content contained in the game’s first Season Pass, guest characters Mai Shiranui (returning from Dead Or Alive 5: Last Round) and Kula Dimond from SNK’s King Of Fighters XIV.
The pair come packed with a set of maid, pirate, nurse, and bunny costumes based off of the themed costume bundles released for the other fighters within the Season Pass. Additionally, there have been some various quality-of-life improvements to the game, such as the addition of rematches to Lobbies, expanded text chat availability, as well as addressing some other pesky bugs.
Kasumi, Helena, Bass, Hayate, Leifang, Ayane, Eliot, La Mariposa, Brad, Hitomi, Mila, Bayman, Honoka, NiCO, and Phase-4 have also received some minor balance adjustments. Version 1.06a released a few days afterward, patching various aspects of the newly released characters and Hitomi. You can read the full patch notes for version 1.06 and 1.06a Team Ninja’s site.
Check out some awesome footage from the new fighters from Dengeki Online and the official DOA Twitter below!
