A new tweet may have revealed that the partner Pokémon feature from Pokémon: Let’s Go, Pikachu! and Let’s Go, Eevee! may be making its way to Pokémon Sword and Shield for the Nintendo Switch.
The tweet, from Nintendo of America, says “It appears in #PokemonSwordShield that gyms in the Galar region are now bigger than ever! What types of Gym Masters are waiting for you to challenge them? You and your new partner Pokémon will have to train hard and find out!”
The H.P. Lovecraft-inspired investigation game The Sinking City has been delayed from its original March 21 release date back to June 27, 2019.
Developer Frogwares explained today that The Sinking City’s release has been pushed back three months due to its currently crowded launch window.
“The reasons for
are simple: we decided that we want to release our game in a less crowded time frame,” said Frogwares community manager Sergey Oganesyan. “With so many great games coming out around the same time, I’m sure this will also give you some breathing space for your playing time.”
“Hopefully while we are giving you less to worry about – which game you should or shouldn’t play – this additional time will also allow us to continue to optimize The Sinking City, making it a little bit better.”
On New Year’s Day 2014, I woke up to find three emails from Sony, thanking me for my purchases of in-game points for FIFA 14, totalling £30. This was smart timing from the hacker, because my first thought wasn’t “oh no, someone’s gained illicit access to my PSN account!”. It was “surely I wasn’t that drunk?” After confirming with a friend that, yes, I had been that drunk but no, I hadn’t insisted on playing Ultimate Team on New Year’s Eve, I changed my PSN password, deleted my card details from the account, and contacted Sony about the situation. Several days later, Sony asked me to call them, I was assured nothing like this would happen again, and my money was returned. Job done.
The previously-announced One Piece live-action series from Tomorrow Studios is seemingly coming to Netflix, if a new listing is anything to go by.
Via ResetEra, users have discovered a United States listing for One Piece on Netflix, which can be found here. While it currently doesn’t include any episodes or images, it does feature a synopsis, which reads “Monkey D. Luffy sets sail with his trusty crew to find the One Piece treasure and become the ultimate Pirate King! Based on the Manga by Eiichiro Oda.”
What do you get when you combine the moody paranoia of a spy thriller with a twisted, super-powered origin story? Starz’s new drama, The Rook, a stylish new drama that somehow manages to evoke both John le Carré and the X-Men.
IGN has an exclusive first look at the teaser trailer for the new series, which is loosely based on the Daniel O’Malley novel of the same name, published in 2012.
Per Starz, The Rook opens on Myfanwy Thomas (Emma Greenwell), as she wakes up in the rain beside London’s Millennium Bridge, with no memory of who she is and no way to explain the circle of glove-wearing dead bodies scattered around her. When Myfanwy discovers she is a high-ranking official in the Checquy, Britain’s last truly secret service for people with paranormal abilities, she will have to navigate the dangerous and complex world of the agency to uncover who wiped her memory – and learn why she is a target.
This month’s IGN First game is Yoshi’s Crafted World, the next big first-party platformer from the kings of the genre at Nintendo. In the above video, I played through the ‘Weighing Acorns’ stage in the Acorn Forest world with Nintendo Treehouse developer Lindsey Newman. You’ll see physics-based puzzle mechanics shown off as we try to find all of the level’s collectibles while still making it through the stage alive. We do plenty of accidental trolling of each other, but in the end, we make it – and then the stage flips! Yes, you literally play the opposite side of the level, as if you physically walked around to the other side of the left-to-right stage and ran it back the opposite way. But as you’ll see, the objectives change, which helps keep you on your toes.

Dark Souls creator and From Software Director Hidetaka Miyazaki reveals he’s got his eye on the Battle Royale genre.
Miyazaki, best known for his work on such titles as Dark Souls and Bloodborne, has revealed that he’s not only been keeping tabs on the Battle Royale and Live Services phenomenon, but that he’d “love to take a crack at them some day.”
In an interview with Telegraph, when asked if he and From Software would consider taking on gaming’s fastest growing genres, he said “There’s always the possibility.” He went on to remark that, “These games are definitely fun,” and, “If we did it, it might be a bit different! But we’re definitely interested and there’s definitely that possibility in the future. We’d love to take a crack at them some day.”
