EVO, the year’s biggest fighting games event, went down over the weekend, and in terms of news perhaps the biggest announcement was that not one but two games will be getting Rollback Netcode improvements over the next 12 months. Don’t know what that means, or why it’s important? I got you!
Bandai Namco has shared just a glimpse of an upcoming Tekken project.
On stage at EVO 2022, after the Tekken 7 Grand Finals, Bandai Namco shared a trailer for its next Tekken 7 update. At the conclusion of a trailer, they showed the iconic Tekken cutscene of Kazuya Mishima throwing his father, Heihachi Mishima off a cliff.
At the point when the cutscene zooms in on Kazuya's face, it instantly swaps from 1994's PlayStation version of Kazuya to a very modern-looking version of the character. "Get Ready" then appears on the screen, before the trailer fades to black. You can skip to the 1:40 mark in the video below to watch the teaser.
Ready your fists for more 👊
📣 A free update with battle balance adjustments will be implemented in #TEKKEN 7
🗓 The Global Finals of the #TWT2023 will be held on February 4-5, 2023 in Amsterdam…watch until the end! pic.twitter.com/47cMCc0VXI
Wind Waker is, I am very proud to say, my favourite video game of all time. I’ve played it through so many times that I like to think I’ve seen every line of dialogue the game has to offer. So I’m very excited to try this mod out that takes every one of those lines of dialogue Nintendo put in the game and throws them …
Arc System Works creates some of the best fighting games in the business. From Dragon Ball FighterZ, to Guilty Gear Strive, to the recently released DNF Duel, there's no shortage of great fighting games coming from the studio.
However, beyond recognizable titles like Dragon Ball FighterZ, the studio's offerings are relatively niche when you travel outside of the hardcore fighting game audience, especially in the West. Arc System Works CEO Minoru Kidooka wants to change that.
At EVO 2022, IGN spoke with Kidooka, who said that in the past, Arc System Works had been very passive with regards to collaborating with other IPs, with IP holders being the ones coming to them with the offers for collaboration. Kidooka wants to change that attitude. Moving forward, Kidooka said the studio plans to be less passive in pursuing partnership opportunities. Specifically, Kidooka wants Arc System Works to create games that will resonate with western audiences. Whether that means licenses with global appeal like Dragon Ball or working with franchises that originated in the West remains to be seen.
"We need to expand fighting [game] communities through IP," Kidooka told IGN. "In the future, if we have such an opportunity, we are actively pushing to collaborate with new IP owners."
In the long run, Kidooka's dream is to develop a new Arc System Works IP planned and developed in the US.
Beyond Dragon Ball, Arc System Works has collaborated with a number of different IP owners in the past, working on games featuring Granblue, Persona, One Piece, and more. But the next step for the studio could be partnering with companies to create new fighting games featuring characters with great western appeal.
Today, following the Street Fighter 5 grand finals at EVO 2022 in Las Vegas, Capcom revealed two playable characters that will appear in Street Fighter 6
First of all, we get Kimberly, a brand new character from the United States
Then we get to take a look at a returning fighter, Juri Han from South Korea, who has become pretty much an established entry following her debut in Street Fighter IV and her return in Street Fighter V.
This is actually the second reveal made by Capcom at EVO 2022. During the tournament’s first day the publisher revealed Tasty Steve and James Chen as commentators for the game’s real-time commentary feature adding to the already revealed Vicious and Aru.
Incidentally, the tournament was won by Kawano from Japan, who defeated Idom from the United States following an extremely pitched grand final fought to the very last round.
You can check out the trailer below both in English and Japanese, letting you enjoy both voice-over options.
It wouldn’t be an EVO without some character announcements, so Capcom took the opportunity this evening to show off the next two characters making up Street Fighter 6’s roster: the return of Juri, alongside Kimberly, a fighter making her series debut.
Today, during the finals of the Guilty Gear -Strive- tournament at EVO 2022 in Las Vegas, Arc System Works has a few reveals to make.
First of all, we learn that the game has sold over 1 million units as of a few days ago.
We then get a new trailer showcasing a returning DLC character that will join the roster as part of Season 2, and it’s Bridget. She will be released on August 8, 2022.
We also get to see the “Find Your One Way” music video created to celebrate the 1st anniversary of the game’s release.
You can check out both videos below, with Bridget’s Trailer in both English and Japanese version depending on your voice-over option of choice.
Capcom has announced two new additions to the Street Fighter 6 roster. Revealed on-stage at EVO 2022, and later posted to Twitter, the trailer shows off Kimberly and Juri.
Juri first appeared in Super Street Fighter IV, and is described as a sadistic thrill-seeker. The spunky ninja Kimberly is brand new to Street Figher VI. You can check out both characters in the new trailer below.
Kimberly, the spunky new ninja, and Juri, the sadistic thrill-seeker, join #StreetFighter6 when it arrives in 2023! Spray cans, a portable cassette player, and motorcyles have never looked more fresh. 🎵👁️ pic.twitter.com/Lnw87p27aP
— Street Fighter (@StreetFighter) August 8, 2022
Kimberly's moveset seems to focus on fast-paced jabs and aerial kicks, with a number of devastating bicycle kicks shown in the trailer. Juri rides into battle on a motorcycle, before unleashing a flurry of tornado kicks on her opponents.
Arc System Works has announced the release date for Guilty Gear Strive Season Pass 2 alongside its first DLC character, Bridget. The Second Season and Bridget will be released on August 8.
At EVO, Arc System Works’ previously announced Season Pass 2 for Guilty Gear Strive begins with the launch of Bridget, the yo-yo’ing attacker. This is the character’s first playable appearance since Guilty Gear XX Core Plus R.
Alongside the playable new character, Bridget will come with two new battle stages and a second color pack. Arc System describes Bridget as an “easy to pick up” character with both long-range attacks and excellent movement.
Guilty Gear Strive Season Pass 2 will feature 4 new characters in total, so expect three more characters to be added in the future.
Guilty Gear Strive is the latest game in Arc System Works’ popular fighting game series and the studio recently announced that it has surpassed 1 million units worldwide. It is the first game in the Guilty Gear series to achieve this milestone.
To celebrate, Arc System Works has released a new original music video for Sol Badguy’s theme. Additionally, starting on August 8, Guilty Gear Strive’s standard edition will be available for a new lower price of $39.99.
The season of Love and Thunder is coming to a close in a day, which means that there’s a brand new Season Pass to look forward to in Marvel Snap soon after that. Developers Second Dinner have yet to reveal the theme of the upcoming season, but Marvel Snap designer Stephen Jarrett may have just dropped some big hints in his latest tweet.
The tweet teases the best lawyer in the Marvel universe, which could very well point to Matt Murdock, AKA Daredevil. However, given that the She-Hulk TV series is set to premiere on Disney+ just a week later, it’s looking more likely that She-Hulk will be the featured card for this season instead. We could still possibly see Daredevil as a reward in the season pass, considering that he’s going to have a cameo in the She-Hulk series as well.
Only time will tell, and it’ll be exciting to see how She-Hulk fits into current deck archetypes. Her ability is that her card will cost one less for each unspent Energy last turn, which makes her a decent fit with other cards like Sunspot and Infinaut which encourage players to skip turns.
Ready to start guessing smarter in Wordle and not waste those six guesses? In this guide, we’ll go through all the 5-letter words starting with UN to lend you a hand on your quest to maintain a hot streak.
Note that the following list of words has been tested and will work in Wordle. However, if you spot any missing or incorrect words, please inform us via the comments below so we can take a look at the list and update it if necessary.
It’s okay to get some help for Wordle when you’re stumped. In this guide, we’ll go through all of the 5-letter words starting with U and ending with T to give you a good idea of where to start and aid you on the quest to maintain your streak.
Note that the following list of words has been tested and will work in Wordle. However, if you spot any missing or incorrect words, please inform us via the comments below so we can take a look at the list and update it if necessary.
Having prepared yourself with our help, it is time to take on the game proper. In addition, learn to gauge your guesses using the color indicators. Green will represent a letter in the right spot, yellow for a right letter in the wrong spot, and grey means you should omit that letter entirely.
Keep plugging away; eventually, you will get the right answer in six guesses or less. If you’d much rather skip the hassle, here is the answer to today’s puzzle.
Since Dead by Daylight’s Dating Sim is a decision-based game, there are many different outcomes throughout the storyline. So, we’ll explain how you can get all the endings in Hooked on You by either romancing or breaking the hearts of the Killers. In addition, we’ll tell you how to achieve the secret conclusions that some players may have missed.
In total, you can do eight possible endings to get the Completionist Achievement in Hooked on You. However, there are other storylines you can unlock to gain hidden rewards that reveal the secrets of Murderer’s Island.
Before we start with this list of conclusions, players should know that the questionnaire at the beginning doesn’t affect anything and we won’t include any answers for that part of the storyline.
Arguably the most interesting aspect of Digimon Survive, and the franchise as a whole, is Digimon Digivolving. What sets it apart from Pokemon is that a Digimon evolving is never permanent; if you so choose, your Digimon can revert to a previous stage. But if you’re having trouble making it happen, here’s how to Digivolve in Digimon Survive.
Digimon Survive essentially has two separate ways for your Digimon to Digivolve and it comes down to the importance of that creature. Digimon that are linked to the story, such as Agumon and your friends’ Digimon, are “Partner Digimon.” Digimon you recruit are “Wild Digimon” and they have their own way of Digivolving.
Unfortunately, Partner Digimon can’t evolve until you’ve reached a certain point in the story, and that’s applied to the Digimon your friends have as well. You won’t see Agumon Digivolve until the end of chapter one, for example. While you can’t force them to Digivolve as soon as possible, you do have a say in what their next stage is.
The beta for Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 is set to arrive next month across PlayStation, Xbox and PC, and will include a map on a grand-prix track.
The Marina Bay Grand Prix map is inspired by the Singapore F1 street circuit of the same name, but with a much darker tone of course.
The open beta will take place across two weekends, with PlayStation players able to access the first exclusively.
There’s something brilliant about tabletop evenings with friends. My Thursday nights usually involve Dungeons & Dragons. Playing an Arcane Archer from the Feywild, I’m joined by a lively party that includes a Firbolg Druid, Minotaur Barbarian, Goblin Ranger, and Tiefling Warlock. We’ve had some fun adventures these last few years. Defeating mind flayers and a lich, fighting servants of Lolth, I got shanked on a bridge - many memorable moments. Never solved that mysterious case of stray arrows hitting teammates though, very peculiar.
D&D inspires creativity, stimulating imaginations through the theatre of the mind. As a popular adaptation target, it left me wondering how game developers capture the spirit of these game. Nick Pechenin, lead systems designer at Larian Studios, happily answered my questions regarding Baldur’s Gate 3, which works off of D&D’s fifth edition. And I didn’t stop there. I can’t claim to be nearly as familiar with Warhammer as I am D&D, but I also approached publisher Slitherine over Black Lab Games’ Warhammer 40,000: Battlesector.
Speaking with Battlesector's executive producer David Sharrock, he informs me, "When we were coming to the end of our plans for Battlestar Galactica Deadlock, the Slitherine and Black Lab teams sat down and had a chat about where we should go next. The Black Lab Games team were looking to make use of their skills in making great strategy games that look amazing and the Slitherine team had already been in discussions with Games Workshop about how to follow up previous 40k Strategy titles like Armageddon and Sanctus Reach."
Capcom has shared a small Tekken 8 teaser at Evo 2022. This clip shows Kazuya carrying Heihachi up to the edge of a cliff and depositing him off the side, before smiling at the camera.
The scene then cuts to a close-up of a new model of Kazuya doing the same smile, before the teaser tells us all to "get ready". You can see it for yourself at the end of the clip below.
This brief preview of things to come was then quickly reshared by The Game Awards Twitter account.
The mysterious new Call of Duty Warzone will be revealed next month on 15th September, as part of a presentation which publisher Activision has bombastically described as an "era-defining livestream franchise event".
The livestream, dubbed Call of Duty Next, will also fully reveal the multiplayer mode featured in the upcoming Modern Warfare 2, and additionally feature Warzone on mobile.
But its Warzone 2.0, or whatever it ends up being called, that is the most intriguing part of this year's Call of Duty offerings. This is the refreshed version of Activision's COD battle royale that we know won't carry over much of your progress - and sounds like it will be an entirely separate entity.
Bridget returns! Arc System Works had a surprise announcement for Guilty Gear fans at EVO 2022, and it involved the return of a beloved character. Bridget joins the Guilty Gear Strive roster on August 8, 2022, not even a day after the announcement itself. This is the first time Bridget is playable since 2003's Guilty Gear Isuka.
Check out ArcSys' Bridget Guilty Gear Strive announcement trailer below.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BWOUBwWMakg
Bridget is seen in a new outfit. Rather than the stylized nun outfit worn in previous incarnations, Bridget's new clothing blends everyday wear with nun-like outlines and patterns. Bridget wears a jacket with a hood that resembling a nun's habit, with a sweater, short skirt, and athletic shorts underneath. Bridget's handcuff belt and yo-yo are still used as accessories, with the yo-yo functioning as a single-foot skate, as well.
Activision Blizzard has announced Call of Duty: Next, a livestream event that will include information on Call of Duty: Warzone 2, Modern Warfare 2, and Warzone on mobile. The showcase will air on September 15, and a public beta for Modern Warfare 2 will follow.
Announced on the Call of Duty blog, Activision Blizzard calls Next an "an era-defining franchise event showcasing the immediate future of Call of Duty." No specific timing has been announced at time of writing.
The event will include:
The event will be followed by two sets of open betas for Modern Warfare 2's multiplayer mode. The first set, September 16-20 will be PlayStation exclusive, while the second (September 22-26) will take place across all platforms, with crossplay.
Early access will be offered to those with pre-orders for the game – you can get full details on how to access the beta on the Call of Duty blog.
Star Wars Battlefront 2 launched a few years ago and was much maligned for how it treated progression and micro-transactions. Now though, the game has improved drastically and it was one of the free PS Plus games back in June 2020. If you’re now jumping into the game, here’s everything you need to know about whether there is crossplay in Star Wars Battlefront 2.
Becoming more and more common place over the last year or so, crossplay allows players on all platforms to play together.
In short, no, there is no crossplay in Battlefront 2, which means you will only be able to play with or against other PS4 players if you’ve just downloaded it with PlayStation Plus. Similarly those playing on Xbox consoles will only be able to play with one another, and PC players will be restricted to playing with other PC players.
However, now more than ever, there is the possibility for that to change. For the first time ever, EA has added crossplay to one of their games, adding the functionality to Need for Speed Heat on the day this article was written. More recently, the upcoming FIFA 23 was announced to also feature crossplay in 1v1 online modes.
Of course, Heat is a more recently released game than Battlefront 2, so it makes more sense that crossplay would come to that, but it suggests that EA are becoming more open to adding the feature to their games.
The legendary fighting game series is coming back. SNK announced at EVO 2022 that it "green-lit" a new Fatal Fury / Garou project for development. This would be the first such project in the works since 1999's Garou: Mark of the Wolves (a.k.a. Fatal Fury: Mark of the Wolves).
Check out SNK's new Fatal Fury teaser trailer below.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7YP3wVygHLg
All in all, the teaser reveals very little about the project. Its naming to Fatal Fury/Garou and the use of Rock Howard in the teaser art implies that it's a follow-up to Mark of the Wolves, at least. In Garou, Rock Howard, son of longtime villain Geese Howard, is a student of series hero Terry Bogard, as well. SNK's announcement also trumpets the project as "the long awaited sequel". Besides the art, the teaser trailer displayed cryptic hints as to the nature of the story. Lines like "The City of Legend Still Breathes," "Hungry Wolves Back on the Prowl," and "A New Destiny Hidden in the Darkness" promise new plotlines spinning off from the narrative of 20 years ago.
Though a Fatal Fury game hasn't made an appearance in over two decades, its characters have kept busy in other games. They've often shown up in the rosters of various King of Fighters titles. Terry Bogard himself even joined Super Smash Bros. Ultimate in 2019 as a DLC fighter.
At Evo 2022, Capcom introduced us all to Kimberly, the first female African American fighter to come to its Street Fighter series.
Kimberly has a moveset that makes the most of "traditional ninja techniques" but with an added "urban twist". This includes a rather creative use of spray cans and her "trusty portable cassette player". As you would expect, this girl can pack a punch!
Along with Kimberly, Juri will also make her return on Street Fighter 6's release. Apparently she will be "as wicked as ever", with a moveset that will be both new and yet still reassuringly familiar. You can see the ladies' full reveal below.
Blizzard is attempting to scrub the internet of Diablo 4 leaked footage and screenshots, which were posted over the weekend.
It seems these stem from an ongoing Friend and Family beta version of the game, which is labelled as a "private test build".
Images and video currently circulating show the game's title screen, character customisation and other initial options, such as game creation and difficulty selection.

Anyone wishing Elden Ring had guns, well now there's a mod to fix that.
The brand new mod from Garden of Eyes adds gun parrying to the game, inspired by the same mechanic in Bloodborne.
The mod makes the Soldier's Pistol and Tarnished Bullets available in crafting, which can be shot to counter enemy attacks. Yes, that includes bosses like Malenia.
Following Kratos' short-lived debut on the Microsoft store, Master Chief has arrived on Sony's territory to exact revenge.
And he hasn't come alone. Doomguy has also joined the fray, just to beat up Master Chief.
God of Console War footage was posted last week on YouTube by modder MarcosRC. Watch them go up against each other in the game's final battle below, with Master Chief replacing Kratos and Doomguy taking over for Baldur.
Blizzard is doing what it can to alleviate any concerns its community may have about microtransactions in Overwatch 2.
This follows on from the news that the company is ditching its predecessor's lootboxes in favour of a seasonal battle pass and in-game store.
As shared by Twitter user Portergauge, earlier this year Blizzard asked those taking part in the Overwatch 2 beta their thoughts on paying $45 for the new, highest rarity, skin in the upcoming sequel.
Nintendo has revealed that it will live stream a Splatoon 3 Direct this week.
More specifically, it will begin at 6 a.m. PT on Wednesday, Aug. 10, and will feature roughly 30 minutes of updates. Check out the announcement for yourself below:
Tune in on August 10 at 6 a.m. PT for a livestreamed #Splatoon3 Direct presentation. Join us in the Splatlands for roughly 30 minutes of updates! pic.twitter.com/iFfaU3V6vM
— Nintendo of America (@NintendoAmerica) August 8, 2022
As you can see, there’s not much else to glean from this news. If you’re the kind of person who anticipates game-focused Directs to reveal information about other anticipated titles, I would say you should not do that with this one. It seems very much a “we’re only going to talk about Splatoon 3” kind of Direct announcement. Of course, I could be wrong, but you know, expectations and all that.
However, if you’re a Splatoon fan, it sounds like Wednesday will be an excellent day. Not only are you getting new Splatoon 3 details and information, but “roughly 30” minutes of it – that’s a lot! As for what to expect, new weapons, characters, maps, and story details will likely be showcased. This will probably be the last Splatoon 3-focused Direct, too, considering the game hits Switch less than a month after it on Sept. 9.
SNK revealed during the Evo 2022 fighting game tournament held in Las Vegas that a new Fatal Fury game has been greenlit and is now in development.
This news comes from a short teaser trailer that showcases a new look at some Fatal Fury art alongside the following message, which plays on screen: “The city of legend still breathes. Hungry wolves back on the prowl. A new destiny hidden in darkness. New Fatal Fury/Garou green-lit.”
Check it out for yourself below:
As you can see, SNK didn’t reveal much else, and if you’re a Fatal Fury fan, you probably have many questions. Will this new game adopt a 3D art style like other modern fighting franchises such as Street Fighter 6, or will it stick with traditional 2D art? Which fighters are returning? Will there be new fighters? Only time will tell.
If you’re unfamiliar with Fatal Fury, you might recognize the name Terry Bogard, who regained some popularity after his inclusion in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. He’s the protagonist of the Fatal Fury fighting game series. If you don’t recognize that name either, nobody can blame you – the last Fatal Fury game came out 23 years ago, with Fatal Fury: Mark of the Wolves’ release in 1999.
Capcom has revealed that Juri will join the roster of Street Fighter 6 alongside newcomer Kimberly.
Returning competitor Juri is a “sadistic thrill seeker who enjoys the suffering of others, taking immense joy in obliterating her foes,” according to PlayStation. She first appeared in Super Street Fighter IV. Before SF6, her primary motivation was exacting revenge on M. Bison, but since his fall in Street Fighter V, she now waits for a new motivation to arrive. If you’re a fan of Juri, don’t sweat – she retains many of her past moves in Street Fighter 6, although you can expect them to have “different properties” now.
Infinity Ward and Activision Blizzard have revealed that Call of Duty: Next, a “franchise showcase,” will be broadcast next month, revealing the future of the series.
More specifically, it will air on Sept. 15 and will “feature robust information drops detailing innovations, live gameplay, and a whole lot more,” including the following:
To say the My Hero Academia series has reached a key turning point would be a massive understatement.
In the latest chapter of the manga, Katsuki Bakugo met his match while fighting against the All for One-controlled Shigaraki. Despite having the assistance of Best Jeanist, Endeavor, UA’s Big Three and several other heroes, he was forced to face down the final big bad in a near hopeless confrontation to buy even a little more time before Deku could arrive. Though he put up a good fight, he paid for the decision with his life and is now among the first major casualties of the final arc.
Though not unheard of in Shonen manga and certainly not the first loss in the series, the death of a character as major as Bakugo is a huge moment for My Hero Academia. While past deaths carried weight, none of them felt as personal as that of the hotheaded Class 1-A member. Fans got to see him grow and learn from Chapter 1 on, going from Deku’s key antagonist and rival to arguably his closest friend. They got to see him truly learn what it means to be a hero, and give up his dreams so that others could pursue theirs.
Seeing his character arc come full circle in this way is a masterstroke that easily puts the series over the top. Or at least, it does so long as Kōhei Horikoshi and Shonen Jump have the courage to stick with the decision.
Naruto is one of the most beloved and iconic anime out there, instantly recognizable to both anime diehards and more casual observers of the medium. It tells the story of the young ninja Naruto Uzumaki on his journey to becoming Hokage, the leader of the ninja village Konoha. In order to use the many cool abilities the show is famous for, ninjas use a complicated series of hand signs in order to activate them. Let’s take a look at these Naruto hands signs and explain how they work.
The hand signs in Naruto (also known as seals) are a way for a ninja to summon and mold the chakra required to perform a specific ninjutsu or genjutsu technique. Each technique varies, but generally, multiple hand signs must be performed, in rapid succession, in order to activate an ability, such as Naruto’s Shadow Clone Jutsu. As these hand signs must often be performed under extreme duress, such as during battle, memorization of the exact sequence is required.
There are 12 basic hand signs, each associated with a different constellation of the Chinese zodiac. This means there are potentially thousands of combinations for aspiring ninja to master.
Demons happened. There's your plot. More specifically, they apparently happened to everyone except you, but the process still messed with your tv, so there's nothing for it but to fight your way through them to some kind of solution.
Demons Happened is a curious blend of very rapid action faintly reminiscent of Hotline Miami, and an Abe's Oddysee type of puzzle game. Such disparate genres don't often blend as well as this, and I'm disappointed that it hasn't got a bigger reception.
Capcom have announced a pair of characters who will be squaring up to battle in Street Fighter 6. A trailer premiered at Evo showed off the moves of returning brawler Juri and newcomer Kimberly.
During EVO 2022, Dragon Ball FighterZ producer Tomoko Hiroki announced that the game will have rollback netcode. This will only be for the PS5, Xbox Series X, and Windows PC versions of the game. During the same announcement, Hiroki said that the game will no longer receive updates in the forms of new characters or balance updates. [Thanks, HD_Kirin!]
Here is a clip of Hiroki announcing rollback netcode during EVO 2022. You can hear the cheers of the audience as soon as she says the words, even before the translator can translate for her:
https://twitter.com/HD_Kirin/status/1556206791318376448
As a reminder, rollback netcode is a function that helps to smooth out online multiplayer experience. Rather than waiting for your opponent to input their commands, it predicts the movement and self-corrects if the prediction is wrong. This means that your gameplay experience should feel smooth regardless of ping. Other games that introduced rollback netcode include Street Fighter 6, BlazBlue Centralfiction, and King of Fighters 2022 Unlimited Match.
Bandai Namco made an appearance at the Evo 2022 competitive event this year, making a handful of important announcements. In addition to a few updates and adjustments for Tekken 7, the company may have also teased an upcoming Tekken 8 at Evo 2022. While yet unconfirmed, the official Tekken account has acknowledged the teaser and urged fans to "watch until the end".
The teaser appeared just after a series of updates for Tekken 7 and the announcement of the global finals dates. The update for Tekken 7 will release on August 17, 2022. The free update will reportedly include balance adjustments and new tactics. Furthermore, the Tekken World Tour 2022 Global Finals will be making its return in Amsterdam, Netherlands, on February 4 and 5, 2023.
At the end of the video, after a Tekken 7 title card, the ending scene of the original Tekken appears. After defeating his father in battle, Kazuya throws Heihachi off of a cliff and then smiles. Notably, this also mirrors the ending of Tekken 7. Suddenly, the video changes from the original polygonal graphics to a modern, high-definition version of Kazuya. Kazuya's left eye glows red as he smiles into the camera, with the words "Get Ready" appearing beside him.
You can check out the possible Tekken 8 Evo 2022 teaser in the video below (Starts at 1:38):

Pokémon Go has created an eye-catching 3D billboard to celebrate International Cat Day.
The billboard is situated in Tokyo - specifically, outside Shinjuku station - and features Pikachu, Meowth and a variety of other cat Pokémon.
Alternatively, you can just watch the billboard from the perfect angle yourself via the video below.
A special Splatoon 3-focused Nintendo Direct will air today, 10th August at 2pm UK time.
Nintendo will offer a deep dive into its ink-based first-person shooter, with around 30 minutes of news set to be broadcast online.
Splatoon 3 is set to launch worldwide on 9th September, though we've still only had details in dribs and drabs - such as this Turf War gameplay footage below.
