Game Mill Entertainment and Nickelodeon have announced more details for the upcoming Nickelodeon Kart Racers, which is coming to Switch, Xbox One and PlayStation 4, later this year.

The iconic Nickelodeon green slime, which made its debut in 1979, plays a critical role on the race track. Players will fill their slime bar by driving over the fluorescent green goo to activate speed boosts. Slime patches come in many shapes and sizes and do not come without risk; it is very slippery, so watch out! Other patches are so big, your kart will transform into a jet ski! If you're lucky, you might just unlock a shortcut. Thanks to the slime valve and item boxes, you never know when your favorite Nickelodeon character might get slimed!

• • Choose a racer from 12 of the most iconic characters: SpongeBob SquarePants, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Hey Arnold!, Rugrats and MORE!!!

2K has announced that Carnival Games will be launching on Switch on November 6th, but also it will now hit both PlayStation 4 and Xbox One the same day.

The game is only launching digitally on the 6th, those who want a retail copy will need to wait until November 20th.

Like a real-life county fair, Carnival Games allows players of all ages and experience levels to enjoy classic games like ring toss (“Post Master”) and alley ball horse racing (“Roll-R-Derby”), as well as brand new attractions like drone racing (“Light Speed”) and cosmic bowling (“Cosmic Strike”).  Four uniquely themed alleys – Jungle Lane, Saturn Station, Vulture Gulch and Nuts & Bolts – provide a different look and feel for the games within them.  Players have the chance to win tickets by playing any of the 20 games and redeem them for new games and outfits for their customizable carnival guest characters.

Koei Tecmo has announced that four classic fighters are joining the roster of Dead or Alive 6 and a new stage will also be included.


The first fighter returning to the fray is Ayane. Ordered to hunt down her half-sister, Kasumi, Ayane’s Mugen Tenshin Hajinmon style of Ninjutsu is as fierce as it gets. Dubbed “The Killer Kunoichi,” Ayane’s ever-changing moves are polished to the point that her opponents have a hard time seeing what is coming next. Forced to live in the shadows, she attempts to fight through her conflicted feelings toward her half-sister, while also fighting her way to the top of the tournament.



The second combatant marking her return is Swedish martial artist, Marie Rose. Marie, known as “The Wicked Lil’ Servant,” boasts a Russian military style emphasizing constant fluidity of movement, enabling the fighter to utilize her small frame to her advantage, outmaneuvering enemies with a variety of tricky moves while turning her opponent’s attacks against them.




Next up is the “Super-Secret Fighter Chick” known as Honoka. This 18-year-old fan of professional wrestling and martial arts movies invented her own fighting style known as Honoka Fu; an art where she combines her favourite moves from fighters she has observed. While in her Hissatsu-no-Kamae stance, she is imbued with unbelievable strength, making her capable of delivering attacks the likes even she has never seen before as her right hand emits a mysterious glow.


The final fighter re-entering the arena is former professional assassin, Bayman. Known as “The Man Who Overcame Death,” Bayman stands inside the ring with the same kind of cold-hearted professionalism that made him such a successful mercenary thanks to his devastatingly-dangerous skills in Combat Sambo.



Those looking for a fight can do so on the new stage Lost Paradise. The magnificent jungle is mixed with the decaying remains of man-made constructions, with some surprising secrets popping out of all corners. Collide with the extremely large eggs and you will not only disturb whatever’s inside, but also alert their mother – a giant Pteranodon who will swoop in for the attack. But that’s not the only danger lurking, as the fence separating the fighters from the jungle is sparked with electricity. Fall to the bottom level and a Tyrannosaurus awaits, ready to rip into anyone within biting distance.

Earlier today, Bandai Namco announced new characters were joining the roster of Jump Force and it seems that they were not done, as they have now announced a release window and dropped a new trailer while they were at it.

At Gamescom last month, attendees were able to catch a presentation of Just Cause 4, now Square Enix have released a video of that very presentation. The game is being played live, (well live when recorded) by Producer Bryan Rodriguez and Game Director Francesco Antolini talks about the action on screen. At 19 minutes, the video is lengthy, so grab your drink of choice and sit down and enjoy.



The game is releasing on December 4th for Xbox One, PC and PlayStation 4.

While we are a little under a week away from the release of Life is Strange 2, Square Enix have released the games launch trailer now, giving players a final sneak peak into the first episode of this new series.

Razer have announced a new device for those who stream games, or just want to avoid messing up their hair, the Ifrit.


The Razer Ifrit has a low-profile dual earset design with a professional-grade, adjustable condenser microphone and flat frequency response in-ear headphones – perfect for broadcasters needing minimal visibility of their audio equipment but still deliver professional quality audio to their recordings.

Nintendo have announced that when Pokemon Let's Go Pikachu and Let's Go Eevee release this November, players will have the chance to capture the original legendary Pokemon, Zapdos, Moltres and Articuno.

Not content with adding Yugi from Yu-Gi-Oh, Bandai Namco have also announced that Kurapika and Killua from Hunter x Hunter are joining the roster in Jump Force. We only have a few screens, but it is better than nothing.




The game is set to come to Xbox One and PlayStation 4 in 2019.

Bandai Namco announced that Yu-Gi-Oh was coming to Jump Force and now we have our first proper screens, including a few card summons.

The game is set to launch in 2019 for Xbox One and PlayStation 4, but set date has been given as of yet.
