Everyone has a fighting chance
Perfect World Entertainment has revealed its next module in their Dungeons & Dragons MMORPG, Neverwinter. Titled Sharandar, the new content will be a three-episode module with the first episode, titled "The Iron Tooth" will hit PC on February 9th, consoles to follow a month later.
After Update 1.2 and a story wholly focused around Albedo, Genshin Impact has released a new character teaser for Ganyu, the next character headed to the game later this month.
Pearl Abyss has updated Black Desert on PC and Consoles with new events and the release of the Nova’s Awakening and Succession skills. PC players can also claim a New Year’s Gift with a coupon code by January 20th.
In a new blog post on the Ashes of Creation website, the team at Intrepid Studios has showcased the Mage Archetype to fans in its latest Alpha One preview.
It seems NCSoft is teasing its follow-up to the long-standing MMORPG franchise, Blade & Soul, coming in 2021. Blade & Soul 2 seems to be getting a 2021 release date, if recent teasers and a new trailer have anything to say about it.
Xbox announced the next batch of games coming to Xbox Live Gold and Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscribers next month with The King of Fighters XIII heading to players’ libraries starting on January 1, 2021. You’ve got two weeks to claim the game, so be sure to add it to your account before January 15. All games are available to claim and play on Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S with backwards compatible titles also available to play on Xbox 360.
KOF XIII offers a great cast of characters with incredibly detailed and beautifully animated sprites. The gameplay is also fantastic and taught me how to better execute supers in fighting games across the board. Be warned though, KOF XIII is also home to what might be considered one of the most infuriating final boss fights in the history of the genre. KOF XIII is one of my favorite fighting games and I am glad to have access to it again on a current-gen console thanks to Xbox’s commitment to backwards compatibility.
On top of KOF XIII, subscribers will also get access to Little Nightmares, Dead Rising, and Breakdown. Definitely a solid month overall for folks who don’t own these titles already. If you are in the market for other retro KOF titles, KOF Neowave is also available on Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and Xbox 360 through backwards compatibility for $9.99.

Bandai Namco released a gameplay trailer for Super Baby 2, the last remaining Tuffle and major antagonist of Dragon Ball GT, in Dragon Ball FighterZ. The latest character was officially announced at the commencement of the Dragon Ball FighterZ National Championship 2020 Japan PLAYOFFS after the victory of Ryota “Kazunoko” Inoue. The character’s release date was also announced to be January 15, 2021, with season pass owners getting access to the characters two days early on January 13.
For those who aren’t familiar, Baby is a genetically modified mutant that can take over the minds and bodies of any other living being. In Dragon Ball GT, Baby controls much of the earth, with Gohan, Goten, and finally Vegeta under his control. Baby is able to fully utilize the strengths and powers of Vegeta alongside his own unique techniques.
Super Baby 2 features a variety of ki based attacks and special moves like Galick Gun, Final Flash, and Revenge Death Ball. Perhaps one of the most unique aspects of Baby is that it appears that once he KOs an opponent’s team member, he can summon them as additional assists on his own team. It looks like there is a brief pause whenever this is done, so it might not immediately lead into combos, but it definitely makes for an interesting trait that can certainly psych out your opponent. We also got a look at Baby’s Level 3 super which leads him to transform into his iconic Golden Great Ape form for a flurry of devastating attacks.
Baby wasn’t the only character announced at the end of the playoffs, GT fans continued to feel the love with the addition of Super Saiyan 4 Gogeta. While only his intro was shown, players can theorize his move set based upon the fact that a few of his moves were already given to Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan (or SSGSS, or Super Saiyan Blue, please normalize Super Saiyan Blue it takes way too long to say SSGSS) Gogeta like his Big Bang Kamehameha and trick Kamehameha, although that iteration didn’t have the same pizzaz like the SSJ4 version. SSJ4 Gogeta will most likely feature moves based on the SSJ4 iterations of Goku and Vegeta that didn’t make it into the game like Kamehameha X10 and Final Shine along with his own signature Big Bang Kamehameha X100. Gogeta currently doesn’t have a release date, but whenever he does arrive, that will be it for Season 3.
Will there be a Season 4 of Dragon Ball FighterZ? Its popularity definitely warrants more content having sold 6 million copies to date, but perhaps new additions would be best saved for a sequel or some larger revision of the main game. Only time will tell! Until then, stay tuned for the latest in Dragon Ball FighterZ news right here at SRK!
