A closed beta test for the game will arrive sometime in the future for PC players. Watch the announcement trailer for the game here:

The trailer showcases what it’s like for non-combatants in the Dragon Ball universe when they’re faced with literal planet-busting beings. Featuring Cell as he chased down characters like Bulma, Oolong and others, it’s certainly an unexpected but promising take on a rather niche genre.

Taking place in the DRAGON BALL XENOVERSE universe, DRAGON BALL: THE BREAKERS allows you to play as one of the iconic rivals of the franchise, the “Raider”, or one of the seven “Survivors” with no super powers. The Raider will have to use its overwhelming power to eliminate the ”Survivors”. These regular civilians have been caught in a “Temporal Seam”, trapping them in a place where space and time are in disarray, and will have to cooperate in order to push back the Raider and escape using the Super Time Machine. Players can also utilize various items on the field and try escaping the field strategically.
Stay tuned for more information on the game by following Bandai Namco’s Twitter account.

ASUS Zenbook S 13 OLED Review – It’s Crystal Clear On the Move

The latest addition to the ASUS ZenBook series is the S 13 OLED, an incredibly elegant looking laptop. I can let its product page speak for it:

The ultralight 1-kilogram Zenbook S 13 OLED is an elegant and powerful companion for those with busy lifestyles. It packs a lot of advanced technology into its super-thin 14.9 mm magnesium-aluminum alloy chassis, including the latest AMD Ryzen™ 6000-Series Processors and AMD Radeon™ graphics. Finished in one of four sophisticated new colors — Ponder Blue, Aqua Celadon, Vestige Beige and Refined White — Zenbook S 13 OLED is designed to stand out, yet it blends in anywhere. Your eyes — and your fingers — will enjoy the clarity and responsiveness of the 16:10 13.3-inch 2.8K OLED NanoEdge touchscreen, which is Dolby Vision-certified with ultra-vivid colors for a superlative viewing experience. And your ears will appreciate the immersive multi-dimensional sound from the Dolby Atmos audio system. Elegance doesn’t get much more refined than this.

ELEGANT FUNCTIONALITY
The ASUS ZenBook S 13 OLED sports a minimalist design, with our review model shaded in Ponder Blue, looking incredibly stylish with its matte metal chassis and bright chrome hinge. Made out of magnesium-aluminum alloy, this is how the laptop is both durable, and not heavy. Definitely one you’re meant to take along anywhere, weighing a mere 1.10kg, should you need to work on the go.

The lid is able to open flat to 180 degrees, to make it easier to screen share right there and then in person. For virtual meetings, you do get a webcam supported with 3DNR technology to enable crisp and clear video calls. It falters just a little as its resolution remains at 720p.
Port wise, the right side has 2 USB Type-C ports and a 3.5mm Audio Jack, while the left side is a USB Type-C charging port. If you have additional external accessories, consider getting an adapter. More so because the keyboard isn’t a full-sized one so if you really want a numpad, you’ll need to supplement it. The keyboard by itself is fully backlit with three brightness levels, but no option to change the colours. What’s important is how it feels to use, though, and I can say that it excels there: key sizes are quite big, the distance feeling just right, enabling quick, comfortably typing.

The touchpad size might depend on personal taste. That said, while it feels a little bigger and wider than I’d prefer, the touchpad didn’t register my palm should I touch it as I type. This is where the ‘virtual’ numpad is accommodated too.

Just so you’re aware, the power button hosts a fingerprint sensor for a quick log in.
WITNESS ME
The ASUS ZenBook S 13 OLED has an OLED display, of course, with a whole host of certifications: 100% DCI-P3, Pantone validation, DisplayHDR True Black 500 and TÜV Rheinland.

It packs a 2880 x 1800 resolution with 16:10 aspect ratio. The screen feels even wider thanks to the four-sided NanoEdge design and ultra slim bezels for that increased immersive viewing experience. I’m definitely impressed with how bright the display is with how vibrant – and accurate! – the colours are when compared to a typical screen.
For work and watching visual entertainment on the side, this laptop’s pretty much made for you.

HORSEPOWER
Under the hood of the ASUS ZenBook S 13 OLED is a AMD Ryzen 7 6800U, AMD Radeon integrated graphics card, 1TB M.2 NVMe PCIe 4.0 SSD and 16GB LPDDR5 RAM. There is currently no option to upgrade the RAM. While this combination is excellent for speedy file transfers, office work and light editing, it’s not a machine touted for gaming.
BENCHMARKING
3DMARK: 2228

PC MARK 10: 5814

Relatively light gaming should still be fine for this laptop. Genshin Impact and Apex Legends can run well enough on the lowest settings at 2880 x 1800 resolution. Trying to crank up the graphical quality will make the games basically unplayable.
GENSHIN IMPACT
At the lowest settings locked to 60 FPS, the game can run, but can only manage 28 FPS. At the highest settings, that drops to 13 FPS and starts getting input lag to boot.
High settings.
APEX LEGENDS
Default settings will get you 10 – 11 FPS. On lowest settings, this inches up to 20 FPS, but with how difficult it is to run and shoot, that would hardly get you anywhere in a fast-paced game such as this.
High settings.
BATTERY LIFE
With a 67WH battery, watching a movie for an hour and having Apex Legends run in the background got the battery to 67%. Finishing off the movie’s remaining hour without the game running had the battery end up at 50%. Considering the fact this laptop uses an OLED screen and a Ryzen 7, this combination of powerful hardware leads to an expected 6 – 8 hour battery life on average.
AUDIO
After all the talk about the visual clarity, we can’t forget it’s only part of the experience. Thanks to the ASUS sound system with Dolby Atmos technology and Harman/Kardon certification, you get crystal clear sound for high immersion and realism. Even cranking the volume up to 60 – 70, there was no audible crackling from the speakers.
STYLUS
Last but not least, the package includes the ASUS Pen 2.0. It’s slightly larger than a ballpoint pen, something I imagine those used to drawing tablets would find no trouble with. Charge it up with a USB Type-C to enjoy its 4096 levels of pressure sensitivity on the display. It’s a pen, and using it is intuitive enough. If you need to, it’s got a button to enable right-clicking.

WRAPPING UP
With all that said and done, the ASUS ZenBook S 13 OLED is by far one of your best options for mobile productivity and visual entertainment partner. Just try not to tax it too hard with the AAA game titles.
Get your own starting at RM5999 in four colour options: Ponder Blue, Refined White, Aqua Celadon and Vestige Beige.

Based on the Arthurian mythology, King Arthur: Knight’s Tale is a turn-based tactical role-playing game which is a unique hybrid between turn-based tactical games and traditional, character-centric RPGs. King Arthur: Knight’s Tale is a modern retelling of a classic Arthurian mythology story filtered through the dark fantasy tropes, a twist on the traditional tales of chivalry.

Players will be able to control a small team of heroes and fight grueling, but satisfying battles with a deeply engaging, tactical turn-based combat system. Choose from more than 30 heroes of five diverse classes and combine hundreds of skills and artifacts to assemble an efficient team.

Gather your own Knights of the Round Table and send them on knightly quests. These heroes are the most important resources and the most complex gameplay elements at the same time. But beware! Death is always final! You must manage them at the Round Table accordingly, planning ahead before going into battles. The character progression system is designed to be as deep as in the traditional RPGs: heroes level up on unique skill trees and the complex loot system provides unique options to fine-tune their tactical capabilities.
Each hero has a distinctive personality and their loyalty is constantly changing through the decisions made by the player – in certain cases they can ever leave the Round Table and turn against you.
For more information regarding the game, you can head over to their official website. They have also opened up a kickstarter campaign if you’re interested in supporting this game monetarily.

Home is where the Mailbox is – Legend of Mana Remastered Review

I wondered for a long time how I could get my friends to play Legend of Mana for themselves, and well, I need not anymore with the release of the Remastered edition that launched 24 June 2021. The game was originally released for the PS1 back in 1999, when Square Enix was Squaresoft, as the fourth title in the Mana series. The remaster also marks the first time the game is available in the EU region, despite having a Swedish main vocal theme song. Funny how that works. Bandai Namco Entertainment publishes the remaster in Asia, incidentally.

Well, that’s plenty of pre-amble for this decades old game, so let me dive back into this game I’ve loved for so long.

OPTIONS
The options are pretty basic, with various toggles to default movements, vibrations and the choice to listen to either the arranged or original soundtrack which can be changed at any time. In-game, you’ll be able to check out Ring Ring Land, saving, the jukebox, gallery and some basic tutorials. The PC version will allow you to change your keybinds. Interestingly, it supports Steam Remote Play, which is handy as 2P is local only. Unfortunately, the Window Key + Shift + Directional Arrow trick won’t work to move the game to an alternative monitor if you have more than one, which is a shame.
Pretty much no frills.

PRESENTATION
The character and enemy models have been kept in the pixel style, while the various character portraits, event end-cards and backgrounds have been touched up. As someone who’s played the original multiple times over the years, I’m honestly taken aback by the details in the portraits, like how Pearl’s hair finally kind of makes sense! I’m extremely fond of the art, and the bright colours also feels quite nostalgic and somewhat stands out from the “realistic” styles other games lean towards to these days. Even putting down Artifacts have their own unique animations, as the Lands quite literally spring to life.
Only now I notice she looks like a Japanese mailbox. Goddammit.
The arranged versions of the soundtrack have subtle touches to make them different from the original. Sometimes I wonder if certain tracks have been kept as is because the variation is so minor to my non-musically inclined self. As much as I love the style, I wish there was an option to speed up certain animations. I know I can’t expect a Lilipea to dash across the map, but it would have been nice.
There are no options for dubs as the game is not voiced.
GAMEPLAY
As a remaster, there are basically no changes to the systems. You have your “Land Make” system, dropping down artifacts to create your own world map. You get to craft weapons, armours and magical instruments. You can either build your own golem buddy, or bring along a monster pet. Last but not least, there’s the Orchard, where Trent will grow the seeds you give him into fruit.
Combat is real time action, as you slide across the screen. You have Special Techniques (ST) that consume a bar, or you can equip instruments to cast magic. In both cases, casting will freeze you in place and make you invulnerable, which bosses can also do. STs and combos depend on your equipped weapon, while special actions – Jump, Defend, Crouch etc. – are not limited to weapon type.
Slapping Hitodama with my homie, Larc.
You can only have three to a party, with the main character, a golem / monster pet, and a recruitable NPC. Through local co-op / remote play, a friend can control the NPC, but otherwise, your companions’ AI is horrendously stupid that you’ll probably only bring them for their Synchro effect, or to meet an Event’s requirements. Synchro Effects occur when you’re close enough to the other unit, so not exactly a very reliable bonus either.
Difficulty options are commonplace in games, but there are none in Legend of Mana. For the most part, the game is pretty easy if you keep up with the default gear you purchase from shops so long you play smart and keep moving around in combat. It can get a little dicey as RNG could stunlock you or you get boxed in on the battlefield, as the boss sprites can take up a lot of real estate and the environment you fight in varies. Regular monster encounters can be turned off, but this also comes with its own disadvantage. Enemy encounters are not random, and a lot of the time you can see their sprite on the overworld before you trigger the battle. This means that inactive monsters may be blocking your path. Oops. Standard status effects apply.
THE STORY AND OTHER THINGS
You will not be finding a singular, overarching story in Legend of Mana. Dubbed “Events”, many of the 60+ Events are one-off stories, with some being mini-arcs. There are three major story arcs, as indicated by their own title card: the Jumi Arc, the Fairy / Escad Arc, and the Dragon Killer Arc. Some of these other Events are also incredibly easy to miss, which hasn’t changed in the remaster. One of the biggest things for this game is needing to go back at the end of every Event to talk to Lil’ Cactus, where he’ll jot it down in his diary, that leaf on the pillar. You will want to do this to make the Events “officially” count, and depending on your tolerance, this can take you out of your steady adventuring pace.
I will still call this the Fairy Arc.
As talked about in the interview with producer Oyamada, the save bonuses from the PS1 incarnation are available. Ring Ring Land is opened through the in-game menu and requires a pet, in which you send out your little friend through an RNG fest for items. I’m a little disappointed it’s not available as a separate pop-up. You’re not really missing out on much, at least.
Go forth, little creature!
In the Lands proper, there’s no mini map, so please, do have a walkthrough open. The monster corral remains limited to 5 pets, which can also be frustrating if you wanted to catch ’em all, so to speak. The systems of old, especially with regards to crafting and monster raising, are mostly still really obtuse, so min-maxers will want to research them in their own time.
A few of the translations have been updated, be it for dialogue or Event names, which depends on you whether you like it or not. Don’t worry, the mini-games are still in.
On the Playstation, hold down L1.
VERDICT
While various aspects of the game have been brushed up for the remaster, Legend of Mana keeps many, if not all, of its original flaws. As a long time fan of this specific title, I am absolutely delighted by its existence, while acknowledging there are various hiccups that can prevent others from fully enjoying this game.
Remember me.
For fans, I will say this is a definite must-get. For newer players, I will nonetheless highly recommend this unique experience, while keeping in mind its shortcomings. I honestly had never expected they would remaster Legend of Mana, and you know, I think I’m happy with just that. I’m back.

                                        Internet required for non-optional patching, no online play.

Considering its minimum specifications, the game would not be too taxing to run on an average gaming laptop nowadays. That said, the storage requirement might pose a bit of a problem since 130 GB is very huge if you’re planning on running it on a laptop.

Kid Thanks “Orthodox Rabbi Bill Clinton” During The Game Awards GOTY Speech, Is Arrested

A kid has snuck onstage during the Game of the Year at the Game Awards 2022 to thank “Rabbi Bill Clinton”, in a seemingly unscripted prank at the awards show.

Geoff Keighley has since tweeted that the child was not actually part of Miyazaki’s team, and has since been arrested.

“The individual who interrupted our Game of the Year moment has been arrested”, Keighley said in a tweet.
Seemingly following behind Elden Ring director Hidetaka Miyazaki, everyone seemed equally shocked when, just as the director had finished his acceptance speech for the award the kid walked up to the mic and thanked his rabbi.

“Real quick I want to say that I think I want to nominate this award to my Reformed Orthodox Rabbi Bill Clinton”, the kid said into the mic.
You can view the moment right here:
Netizens were quick to jump on the meme bandwagon, spotting both the moment the kid had snuck into the entourage and making jokes about the sudden upstaging.
“Why was there a random french kid on stage that shouted out “reformed orthodox rabbi bill clinton” am i imagining that?“, says streamer Hasanabi.
In the confusion, Bill Clinton has started trending on Twitter, as people celebrate yet another crowning moment of live broadcasting.
It’s been a big year for Bill Clinton- the former President of the United States first had an old clip of him antagonizing the Guilty Gear series for violent messaging resurface, before being honored via a cameo in Guilty Gear Strive, and now seemingly being dedicated Elden Ring’s Game of the Year Award by a guy who didn’t work on it.

Story of Seasons: A Wonderful Life Review – What a Wonderful World

Harvest Moon: A Wonderful Life is a classic title that was released for the Nintendo Gamecube back in 2004 which quickly gained popular among fans. Fast forward to 2023, this title is now more accessible than ever with the upcoming remake – Story of Seasons: A Wonderful Life.

Unedited Image Credit: Marvelous & XSEED Games
Story of Seasons: A Wonderful Life combines all of the well-liked additions and features from the original game, the Special Edition, and Another Wonderful Life edition. While the title is now a Story of Seasons game instead of a Harvest Moon game, it still retains core elements of the original aside from some character redesigns.

Nostalgic Returns
Players begin their story by picking their gender of choice and then customising their playable character. Speaking of, players are able to pick between a selection of face types, skin types, hairstyles, hair colours, and eye colours. While the customisation options are comparatively limited as compared to other titles, each customisation type is unique and adorable enough to make you be quickly attached to it.

A Wonderful Life begins on your father’s farm in Forgotten Valley, which has a dog, a cow, and an empty field. This is your box standard start for most Harvest Moon games, and this is also where your mentor figure would teach the players how to farm, bond with the local townspeople, and essentially leading and honest and hardworking life.
The original game had an overarching plot which lasted for 30 years as our playable character got married, had a child, aged, and eventually passed away, with their child choosing a different career depending on how the player raises them. That was what made the original title remarkable as it was the first in the series which introduces this mechanic.
Unedited Image Credit: Marvelous & XSEED Games
In order to keep up with more recent farming games out in the market, this remake has gone through a graphic overhaul with fresh new artwork, animations, and a choice between the more modern chibi design or the more traditional avatar style.
Personally speaking, I’m a big fan of the new look and adorable graphics that the game has going on with this remake.

It’s an Honest Life
While our options when first starting the game are very limited, there’s still a lot of things to learn, like including how to work in the fields, taking care of animals, and interact with the villagers. It can get a bit overwhelming to immediately grasp every aspect of the Harvest Moon series if this is your first entry to the series.
Unedited Image Credit: Marvelous & XSEED Games
One thing I can suggest to newer players is just to not rush into things. Take your time with things and broaden your range of activities until you find your pace and be more accustomed to the farm life.
A lot of the mechanics from the original game work similarly in the remake. Players can grow a variety of crops that includes vegetables, fruits and trees, while also having the option to use crop fusions and create hybrid crops.
Players can also raise a variety of livestock which includes chickens, ducks, cows, and sheep. The players can also get a free horse from Takakura, the friend of our player’s father, and even buy a goat. Cows also come in a variety of different colours and even produce different kind of milk.
On top of all that, you can customise your farm by adding buildings and machines such as the seed maker to make your daily farming process smoother. Last but not least, you can even go fishing, mining, and forage items in the valley.
Unedited Image Credit: Marvelous & XSEED Games
Players start off with almost nothing, and you’re mainly by yourself. You’ll start off by tilling the ground while first earning some cash by selling weeds and other items that are available for us.

The Citizens of Forgotten Valley
Given that Story of Seasons: A Wonderful Life is a farming game, having a productive farm while having social interactions are what makes it fun. While taking a break from the routine farm work, we get to meet all kinds of interesting people in the valley while participating in brand-new experiences.
Unedited Image Credit: Marvelous & XSEED Games
The interactions with the locals are one of the game’s main features. Compared to earlier games in the series, the villagers’ personality is a tad more interesting and doesn’t feel as hollow. To get us invested in those minor characters, you can take up resident quests which can be picked up on the Bulletin board which details a bit of their personal story.
Some of the NPCs have pretty good backstories and it honestly feels like each of the characters have their own lives even outside of our interactions with them, which makes them even more relatable. That took me by surprise because most sim games usually make NPCs look pretty lifeless and uninteresting, but not in this game though.
Unedited Image Credit: Marvelous & XSEED Games
However, while interacting with the locals is all fine and dandy, it’s rather disappointing that there’s no voice acting in the game. You’re only able to feel the immersion purely by text since the visuals don’t convey their emotions as well.

Raising a Family
Another significant aspect for sim farming games like these would be the romance. Once you have your heart set on a partner, regardless of gender, you can enjoy yourself by wooing them, getting married and having children with them.
Unedited Image Credit: Marvelous & XSEED Games
Players in A Wonderful Life can go through the protagonist’s life at various points, which is something that is not done in other Story of Seasons games. You can make decisions as you raise your child from birth to adulthood, and those decisions have an impact on how the child develops. It does takes hours of gameplay for players to get to that point in their lives, but at the same time it provides more plot outside of the main gameplay loop.
The slice-of-life farming genre is known for their slow-paced start but being progressively rewarding, which mimics the real challenges of building up towns and raising a child. Because of this, the games includes progressively more difficult challenges that encourage players to work toward long-term goals.

Less is More
Unedited Image Credit: Marvelous & XSEED Games
While quality of life features often times are welcomed, for Story of Seasons: A Wonderful Life, it does make the game a lot more easier. Depending on how you view games, this could either be a good or bad thing. The shortcuts used for your tools or other items in your backpack function as intended to ease tediousness.
An instance being the experience is significantly improved because we don’t have to pause the game to access key features. We can quickly access bag compartments, press triggers to quickly access all of our tools, and even view the location of various characters on a map when we need to find them. Ringing the bell at our farm can also bring out all the animals to the field instead of needing to take them out one at a time.
Unedited Image Credit: Marvelous & XSEED Games
These little things may not seem like much, but together, they make for a pleasant and enjoyable gameplay experience. Because of that, the game feels much less serious and harsh. We won’t need to worry about losing stamina because we don’t waste it as much which opens up for more time to do other tasks.
While this may be a good thing for other players, I’m personally the opposite as it makes the game feel a lot more simple. Given that this title is a simulation game, the quality of life updates make the overall gameplay feel much more monotonous with fewer activities to manage.
To me, I enjoy the early-game grind because it should be the most difficult and interesting part of Story of Seasons. However, now that it’s gone, the early game grind takes away the challenging aspect of the game.

Verdict
Unedited Image Credit: Marvelous & XSEED Games
All in all, this remake version of A Wonderful Life manages to bring all the charm of one of the most cherished entries in the long-running farming series. The remake does the original game justice by maintaining the gameplay that made it popular and adding new events to keep players engaged. It also brings about some much-needed quality of life improvements, making it a good entry point for beginners.
But as I previously brought up, the quality of life removes the challenging aspects of expanding the farm and making the game feel too easy. Additionally, the lack of voice acting from the NPCs makes the game feel a lot less immersive.
However, if you don’t mind all of that, the game will definitely be a pleasant title for both new players as well as veteran Harvest Moon fans.

Overlord: MASS FOR THE DEAD coming to global?

It would seem that Overlord: MASS FOR THE DEAD, the mobile game adaptation of the popular light novel and anime series, will be heading to global audiences at some point! A screenshot of the game’s Google Play Store page was shared on Reddit, appearing to be published by Crunchyroll:

We can probably expect a pre-registration campaign at some point in the future, or maybe even a beta test/soft-launch with what Crunchyroll did with Mob Psycho 100: Psychic Battle. At time of writing, the store page appears to be unavailable.
Take on the role of Momonga, a hardcore player of the online game “Yggdrasil”. The game is shutting down, but he decides to stay on till the very last moment, until he discovers he’s unable to log out. Now trapped in the defunct MMORPG, he takes on a new name in Ainz Ooal Gowns, a skeletal mage, and will now help his guild survive in this dark fantasy world.

The mobile game itself is a turn-based battle game, with options to go auto mode, accelerated mode and multiplayer available. You can get closer to your units in the game, unlocking new stories and information on the characters. The story in the game is an original one, supervised by author Kugane Maruyama.

Should you pull My Hero Ultra Impact World Heroes Mission units?

Deku, Bakugo and Todoroki are coming to My Hero Ultra Impact decked out in their My Hero Academia: World Heroes Mission gear. Each of them will be UR units in the game and will only be available in the game for a limited time, unlike the other UR units.

Let’s have a look at each of the World Heroes Mission units in My Hero Ultra Impact.

Like many of the other Deku units in the game, World Heroes Deku is pretty bad for a UR unit. His skills are centred around speed, but because of how mismatched their cooldowns are, it’ll be difficult for him to deal maximum damage with his speed buff on.
In addition, his auto skills only trigger when his HP is under 50% or the start of each battle and wave. They do not have an impact throughout the fight, making World Heroes Deku pretty horrible.
Red [World Heroes] Katsuki Bakugo
Role: Damage Dealer
Tags: U.A. Student | 1-A Student | Hero | Male
World Heroes Bakugo is an okay-ish UR unit. He has a speed buff as long as his health is above 50%, which is always useful in modes like Arena.
Besides that, his action skills are pretty decent and work well with each other. However, what you should really be looking out for is…

Blue [World Heroes] Shoto Todoroki
Role: Damage Dealer
Tags: U.A. Student | 1-A Student | Hero | Male
Once again, Todoroki has another absolutely amazing UR unit. The World Heroes version of this Todoroki is easily one of the best units in the game.
On top of his signature freeze effects of his skills which are always useful, he provides a lot of buffs to his team from both his damage skills and auto skills. Furthermore, World Heroes Todoroki gets a whopping 40% power boost as long as there’s a Pro Hero on the team. World Heroes Todoroki will fit in many different compositions and will shine.

With that out of the way, should you pull the World Heroes Mission banner in My Hero Ultra Impact? The answer is a definite yes. This is because of the limited-time nature of this banner. If you do not get a World Heroes unit, they may or may not appear again in the future. The best character from this banner is World Heroes Todoroki, so if your only concern is meta, then definitely go for him.
That said, remember not to spend all your Gems as there will be another banner coming this weekend, featuring a new UR Todoroki.

Blizzard has announced that the upcoming Diablo IV has opened for Beta sign ups, with a pre registration site set up for prospective players.

No details have been given on when exactly the Diablo IV beta would even be- but considering the scarce information surrounding Diablo IV it’s  a good sign that the game’s release date is drawing ever nearer.

This announcement also comes with confirmation that Diablo IV would be a next-gen title- the website only mentions a launch on PS5, as well as Xbox Series X|S and PC, with no mention of past-gen consoles or even a Nintendo Switch version, unlike Diablo III or II.
That being said, there’s no word on whether the beta would also be available on all announced platforms, or if it would be console exclusive.

The news follows a tumultuous week for Blizzard Entertainment, who’s seen a lot of backlash over the release of Diablo Immortal following its aggressive monetization.
Despite the lack of promotional materials like trailers, Diablo IV has a surprising amount of communication behind it- Blizzard keeps fans in the loop with quarterly updates, introducing various gameplay features such as customization and the game’s skill trees.
The game features a return to the more classic gothic horror aspect of Diablo, and features 4 playable classes at launch: the Barbarian, Rogue, Sorcerer and Druid.

Acer brings stereoscopic 3D gaming with SpatialLabs technology to Predator Helios 300

Acar’s new SpatialLabs technology lets users experience glasses-free stereoscopic 3D gaming with Predator Helios 300 SpatialLabs Edition. This new model of the Predator Helios 300 was announced earlier today by Acer, alongside the Acer SpatialLabs View and Acer SpatialLabs View Pro—two 4K displays which offers the SpatialLabs suite of experiences.

Predator Helios 300 SpatialLabs Edition — 3D Gaming Laptop

The Predator Helios 300 SpatialLabs Edition (PH315-55s) is a powerful gaming laptop that enables glasses-free, stereoscopic 3D gaming experiences. With the SpatialLabs TrueGame application, gamers can effortlessly play supported games in a 3D mode on the device, where details of the scene are brought to life. Rooms appear more spacious, objects appear genuinely layered, and adventures become more thrilling—all smooth, in real-time, and without the need for special glasses.

GamerBraves Newsletter Vol. 103 – The Glory of The Barbie/Oppenheimer Double Feature

SpatialLabs TrueGame is a new application that brings stereoscopic 3D to the world of gaming, letting players enjoy their favorite titles in their true glory. This is possible because games are mostly created with three dimensions in mind: developers include information about depth into each scene and object they build. SpatialLabs leverages this already-existing information in order to present the games in stereoscopic 3D. A dedicated pre-configured profile will be available for each game title among the 50+ modern and classic titles on launch in order to offer players a seamless experience with their favorite games, and profiles for additional titles will be added on a continuous basis moving forward.

Follow us on Twitter
Follow @GamerBraves
and Tweet us
Tweet to @GamerBraves

The SpatialLabs experience is created through the combination of an eye-tracking solution, a stereoscopic 3D display and real-time rendering technologies. The display of the Predator Helios 300 SpatialLabs Edition gaming laptop consists of a 15.6-inch UHD 2D panel with a liquid crystal lenticular lens optically bonded on top of it, together forming an innovative module that can be switched back and forth between 2D and stereoscopic 3D views.
To power these exciting real-time 3D experiences, the Predator Helios 300 SpatialLabs Edition features up to 12th Gen Intel® Core™ i9 processors, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Laptop GPUs, 32GB DDR5-4800 memory and PCIe Gen 4 NVMe SSDs RAID 0 storage. A dual-fan layout that includes one 5th Gen AeroBlade 3D fan helps to keep the system running cool, further supported by liquid metal thermal grease and Acer’s CoolBoost™ technology.

Running Windows 11, the laptop comes with Killer DoubleShot Pro and Wi-Fi 6E (E2600+1675i) connectivity in addition to a healthy range of ports, including an HDMI 2.1 port for connecting to external monitors, a Thunderbolt™ 4 port, and two USB 3.2 Gen2 ports.
It will be available in North America in early Q4, starting at USD 3,399.99; and in EMEA in September, starting at EUR 3,299. You can learn more about the Predator Helios 300 SpatialLabs Edition here.
SpatialLabs Go — Transform 2D Content Into Stereoscopic 3D Content

Acer’s proprietary solution SpatialLabs Go features AI technology that makes it possible to generate stereoscopic 3D content from almost anything that can be displayed in full-screen, all at the press of a button. Photographs pop off the screen, simple web games become a bit more exciting, and videos (online or offline) take on another level of immersion in real-time. Perhaps most importantly, you can generate your own content, by taking some photos or videos with your devices, and once the assets are imported onto the system, you are able to use SpatialLabs Go to generate simulated stereo 3D images.
SpatialLabs Model Viewer — A More Intuitive Way to Create in 3D

While the Acer SpatialLabs View comes with an all-new stereoscopic 3D gaming platform, the Acer SpatialLabs View Pro comes with both the technology necessary to realize a user’s creations and also an intelligent industrial design that simplifies deployment — a combination that leads to more impactful storytelling opportunities.
The Acer SpatialLabs View Pro is about making creators’ lives easier. To this end, out-of-the-box support for all major file formats, including newly added support for Datasmith, means that creators can use 3D design software such as Revit, Solidworks, and Cinema 4D by installing Datasmith export plugins: when a project is ready for viewing, it can be imported into the SpatialLabs Model Viewer. Sketchfab integration further simplifies the creation process by giving users access to a massive online library of free and premium 3D assets that can be leveraged for their own projects. As color accuracy is critical for design work, the View Pro’s 15.6-inch 4K display covers 100% of the Adobe RGB color gamut.

Not just a tool for creating 3D assets, however, the SpatialLabs View Pro empowers developers with a variety of means to share and display their creations:

Content can be quickly loaded for sharing — whether that’s to get feedback from a colleague in the office or to give a customer a true-to-life visualization of the item they’re interested in
Those working in sales or marketing will appreciate the Acer SpatialLabs View Pro’s slim and portable design: less than 1.5 kg (3.3 lbs) it’s easy to take on the go, and a collapsible kickstand makes it possible to set up shop virtually anywhere
A VESA mount makes it easy to affix the Acer SpatialLabs View Pro to kiosks and point-of-sale displays when the situation calls for a more permanent setup, while Ultraleap hand-gesture recognition allows customers to enjoy an even more interactive experience

Mobile Game Devs To Disclose Odds For Gachas In Apple App Store

Related Posts

Pokemon Sleep Now Available In Malaysia

GamerBraves Newsletter Vol. 103 – The Glory of The Barbie/Oppenheimer Double Feature

Gachas, loot boxes and those alike in mobile games are common nowadays. As such features would help the game developers or publishers earn, they are also fuelling or igniting a player’s addiction to gambling. With new cards or units that became must-haves in current games, players usually rush without a second thought to purchase the loot boxes to take a chance at getting the latest release.
However, Apple has recently announced a revision of guidelines for their App Store. This time, they are looking into the odds of loot boxes on what players could receive upon their supposed “high rates”. With that said, this rule applies to many popular mobile games out there which includes Hearthstone, Clash Royale, Final Fantasy Brave Exvius and others which uses the loot box system.

Though the loot box system has been around for some time, some dissatisfied players who poured money into their favourite game has lashed out for not gaining the virtual, pixel item that they wanted. As loot boxes go, they are always providing players randomly generated items. Players have been warned that they may or may not get the virtual item they want. Thus the mass buying of the loot boxes to increase their chances of getting it. In which case has led some to classify such features as gambling, though the Entertainment Software Rating Board does not acknowledge it despite of its RNG nature.

Due to the rage over the loot box rates on the console game, Star Wars Battlefront II, EA had to temporarily remove all microtransactions in the game. Of course, that did not solve the case which led Apple to make their first move to review their App Store policy, helping game publishers and distributors avoid regulation from outside bodies. This could be the first step that could change future games to at least be transparent to players of the rates so that players are well informed of what they are actually getting before pouring their fortune into randomness.

Punishing: Gray Raven – Producer Letter from Solon Lee

Through a Producer Letter published through Punishing: Gray Raven social channels, Solon Lee has shared some of his thoughts. Here’s one posted through Twitter. While not reproduced here verbatim, you can read some of what he says below:

Punishing: Gray Raven will be our first global release and it’s always been my biggest dream to develop a game that will be loved by players all over the world. When we first released in China in 2019, with a Japanese release following in 2020, we knew we had to aim high. We had to challenge the best and the brightest in a competitive and crowded mobile market. Based on what we’re hearing from players like you, I think we may have achieved that dream.

We set out to make an action-RPG that can stand proud as one of the best-looking, best-playing and most involved and skill focused out there. A console-quality action game that can fit in your pocket. A sci-fi universe you can bring with you and dive into wherever you like. It’s been a challenge for Kuro Game, but your response to the game has made it all worthwhile.
Through the producer letter, he talks about a steady stream of content updates as “launch is rapidly approaching”, and being encouraged by the interest and response players have shown following the most recent beta for Punishing: Gray Raven. The global launch date is currently slated for summer 2021, so look forward to that.

Nikke: Goddess of Victory To Introduce Pity System In Latest Update

Rejoice gacha addicts as NIKKE: Goddess of Victory has announced that they will be implementing a pity system to their gacha pull with today’s update.

The pity system will be dropping later in the update in the form of Gold Mileage Tickets. You would need a total of 200 of the tickets to be able to exchange it for a NIKKE you want.

【Version Update Maintenance Notice】
Dear Commanders, we are commencing maintenance to update the game version at the below timing:
Follow us on Twitter
Follow @GamerBraves
and Tweet us
Tweet to @GamerBraves

Maintenance period⌛10th Nov 15:00 ~ 18:00（UTC+9）
More Info👇🔗: https://t.co/yDO2o3VI86
※There may be delays to the end time#NIKKE pic.twitter.com/E9gcOqOlSO
— GODDESS OF VICTORY: NIKKE (@NIKKE_en) November 9, 2022

To obtain these Gold Mileage Tickets, you will need to pull on the Special Recruit which will also be introduced when the update drops.
Special Recruit is a banner separate to the normal recruit with the featured character to have an increased rate in appearing in your pulls, up to 2%. This time around it will be the new character, Helm.
1 pull on the Special Recruit will grant you 1 Gold Mileage Ticket. So you would need to make a total of 200 pulls to be able to get enough ticket to exchange for the unit you want.
What a pity system essentially is that you pull a certain number of times in special banners to the point that you are pretty much guaranteed the highest rarity character.
In Nikke’s case, its a variation to the pity system where you pull to get enough exclusive gacha currencies and exchange it for the NIKKE that you want.
No need to worry as unlike a few games with sharing the same system like Princess Connect and Granblue Fantasy, the Gold Mileage Ticket would not expire and you can carry them over across Special Recruit banners.

Since the game is still new, we cannot judge just how high of a number 200 pulls are and if the amount of pulls we get per month would be enough to pity in Nikke.

Tech King Ada Draws Fan Outrage For Bad Vtuber Takes

A Taiwanese TV personality named Tech King Ada has drawn some flak online after he came on a local TV show to explain the Vtuber trend, poorly.

In a segment meant to promote the ongoing trend of calling anything virtual the “Metaverse”, Tech King Ada introduced the topic of Vtubers, though fans found his segment poorly researched with some of his claims about the trend that now sees more than 16000 active Vtubers.

In particular, fans seem to have gravitated toward two claims in particular: the first being his condescending claim that Vtubers were making up for their lack of looks by using a 2d avatar.
“Some people may want to be a Youtuber, but maybe she doesn’t look as pretty”, he says during the segment.
Follow us on Twitter
Follow @GamerBraves
and Tweet us
Tweet to @GamerBraves

His other comment was about the nature of Vtubers, describing the vocal talents behind the characters as interchangeable, and easily replaced. The only real case this has happened was with Kizuna Ai, with the character having multiple voice talents behind her.
Naturally, Vtuber fans took to the comments to voice their displeasure for having their Oshi misrepresented, with the segment having 13,000 dislikes on YouTube against 405 likes.
“Once again, the Taiwan program shows a group of super unprofessional people who have no knowledge and responsible attitude towards their own profession.
A public-oriented program but repeatedly presents wrong information.As a member of the media, I really feel disgusted”, one YouTube comment writes.
Tech King Ada Apologizes Over Vtuber Row

Tech King Ada has since posted an apology over the incident, though fans described it as insincere as best, as he changes gears halfway to defending his original statement.
“As for this video really just apologize properly, some of the parts that are too much emotion is not very good, such as the content of the hope that we do not continue to burn or it will make others feel that the V circle is very aggressive this thing should not be you to say, but by a third party to say will be much better, and as long as a good apology for mistakes I believe that we will not continue to burn.”, one translated comment reads.
The apology video itself is sitting at 2.7k dislikes, against a paltry 171 likes.

HUAWEI Mate 20 X Review – An incredibly large and powerful smartphone for gaming

HUAWEI Mate 20 X is the latest flagship for the well-known HUAWEI Mate series. With a massive 7.2-inch display, the new smartphone is said to be designed for gaming purpose. We are lucky to try it out, and we do agree on that. Check out our HUAWEI Mate 20 X review below to know more about the device!

Here is our unboxing video:

The Design and Display
The HUAWEI Mate 20 X comes in two colour – Midnight Blue or Phantom Silver, the model we get is in Phantom Silver. On the back, we got an engraved glass panel that shows a unique texture glittering in the light along with the “matrix camera lens”.

With a body size of 174.6mm x 85.4mm, Mate 20 X is a pretty large smartphone compared to the normal ones (but much smaller compared to a tablet). It is quite heavy too at about 232g, but from our experience, its body is non-slippery and comfortable for one-handed operation.

The expansive 7.2-inch OLED screen with a resolution of 2244×1080 is undoubtedly the biggest selling point of Mate 20 X. The bezels are narrow, while the waterdrop notch design allows a larger screen ratio. Although the display might sound too big for a smartphone, it does offers a super immersive experience for both gaming and entertainment.

HUAWEI Mate 20 X Specifications

Size: 174.6 x 85.4 x 8.15 mm
Weight: 232 g
Color: Midnight Blue and Phantom Silver
Display: 7.2″ FHD+ FullView OLED display

Camera:

24 MP, f/2.0 aperture Front Camera
40 MP (Wide Angle Lens, f/1.8 aperture) + 20 MP (Ultra Wide Angle Lens, f/2.2 aperture) + 8 MP (Telephoto, f/2.4 aperture) Leica Triple camera

Battery: 5000 mAh
EMUI: EMUI 9.0

Camera
Inspired by the four-eye car lights of the Porsche 919, the matrix lens on Mate 20 X sports an AI-powered Leica Triple Camera of 40MP+20MP+8MP lens. The 40MP Wide-Angle Lens and 8MP Telephoto Lens allow you to take detailed shots effortlessly, while the new 20MP Leica Ultra Wide Angle Lens offers a perfect experience for taking landscape photos. Moreover, it supporting triple optical zoom and 5x hybrid zoom.

As it is AI-powered, you can expect Mate 20 X to feature the basic AI features such as AI scene recognition. It is recognising more than 1,500 scenarios and 25 categories, the AI video editor can even identify faces and create separate video highlights for each person.
Interestingly, the device also features the AI Vision and AI Shopping, where you can simply point your camera at an object and get its information or online listing from shopping platforms.

Performance and Battery Life
Powered by the newest Kirin 980 processor, 6 GB RAM and GPU Turbo 2.0 technology, Mate 20 X is capable to run most of the graphics-intensive games smoothly. So far we haven’t encountered any lags while testing the device with some of the trending mobile games such as Call of Duty: Legend of War, Epic Seven and Blade & Soul: Revolution under the best graphics and FPS settings.
Here is our Call of Duty: Legends of War gameplay recorded on Mate 20 X:

Overheating is a common issue for smartphones, but you can rest assured that Mate 20 X doesn’t heat up too easily. It features the HUAWEI Supercool technology that could keep the device cool even after few hours of non-stop gaming.
The battery life of Mate 20 X is impressive too, thanks to its 5000mAh battery and AI-driven resource allocation technology. From our experience, the battery still remains healthy (over 40%) after 4 hours of intensive gaming, you can expect it to last more than 1 days of regular usage too. The HUAWEI SuperCharge allows you to charge it up rapidly for more hours of gaming!
You can connect your device to a larger display via the desktop mode too.
The Verdict
Aside from the incredibly-large display, HUAWEI Mate 20 X is packed with powerful specifications which you will find gaming on it an enjoyable experience. If you are looking a smartphone for gaming, be sure to check out Mate 20 X!

HUAWEI Mate 20 X is available for RM3199 in 2 colours including Midnight Blue and Phantom Silver. You can find more information about the device on the official site and Facebook.

“You Generation” VR/AR game project announced

COLOPL has announced a new smartphone title dubbed You Generation. With the keywords “LIVE X GAME”, this game is meant to fuse the company’s game technology, Virtual Reality / Augmented Reality tech and “LIVE” for a “totally new experience”. The #ru is meant to represent a “connection”. Check out the teaser video below:

A teaser website for the You Generation project is also live, which you can visit here, along with associated official Twitter here. Bits of character design has been teased, though overall, details are very limited. Pre-registrations, however, are slated to begin sometime Winter 2020.

From the way the teaser mentions “connecting” game and real life, it could be something akin to popular AR games like Pokemon Go for real life interactions, or even something on the experimental scale like Micro Vibration of Galapagos, the latter being a Japan-exclusive paid AR game. You Generation will be a free to play title with in-app purchases.
Augmented / virtual reality games can still be considered a relatively newer space, so it’ll be interesting to see how this project will take flight. We’ll have to wait to see what’s in store as more details follow.

A mish-mash of schoolgirls and military combat, Blue Archive puts players into the shoes of a school club advisor. Specifically, the Federal Investigation Club. Expect the typical anime shenanigans such as school drama, romance and the occasional military operation or two, no big deal.
The game will be available for Android and iOS devices. Here are the recommended specs for the game:
Android

OS/Device: Android OS 9.0 or higher / Galaxy Note 8 or higher
RAM: Minimum 3GB required

iOS

OS/Device: iOS 13 or higher / iPhone 8+ or higher

The game’s pre-registration was announced on October 14 last month. Since then, the game has racked up over 1,000,000 pre-registrations, shattering the initial target of 500,000 pre-registrations at breakneck speed. The pre-registration rewards are as follows:

100,000: 200 x Pyroxene, 150,000 x Credit
200,000: 400 x Pyroxene
300,000: 800 x Pyroxene
