How do you make a fistfight taking place on top of an active volcano even more exciting? By tossing a woman who controls a tiger into the middle of things. Bandai Namco has announced that they will be adding Kazumi Mishima as a playable character in Tekken 7 and she will fight alongside a tiger who will appear in battle when called using certain techniques.

In the trailer below you can see Kazumi utilize moves similar to her other family members to take on Heihachi with the help of a tiger she commands. Kazumi Mishima will be added to the arcade version, only available in Japan, on June 2nd.

Late last year Blanc won a popularity poll held by Compile Heart and earlier this year it was announced that she would be getting her own spin-off game for the PS Vita called Extreme Dimension Tag Blanc + Neptune Vs. Zombie Army. While we have learned that the game will follow Blanc and the other main characters as they try to prevent a school from being shut down by trying to film a zombie movie on the premises before things go terribly wrong, we have seen very little gameplay footage.

That is until today when Compile Heart released a trailer showing that Extreme Dimension Tag Blanc + Neptune Vs. Zombie Army appears to play similar to Hyperdimension Neptunia U but with co-op modes and various other tweaks.

‘The Witch and the Hundred Knight’ Revival Metallia Trailer Released

When Nippon Ichi Software announced that they were working on The Witch and the Hundred Knight Revival, an enhanced version of the original game to be released on the PlayStation 4, the company announced that one of the bigger additions to the title would be the ability to play as the swamp witch Metallia.

Now they have released a new trailer showing off some of Metallia’s moves as she uses her magic and large blade to eliminate enemies. It is worth noting that Metallia appears to only be playable in a certain unlockable mode and likely will not be playable during the core story.

EA announced that the 12 Women’s National Teams are joining the FIFA 16 roster, just in time for FIFA Women’s World Cup 2015 in Canada! Teams from Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, England, France, Germany, Italy, Mexico, Spain, Sweden, and the United States of America will be playable in Match Day, Offline Tournament, and Online Friendly Matches. They will only be able to play against other Women’s National Teams, so we won’t be seeing Team USA play against Manchester United any time soon.

EA managed to bring in some of the biggest players participating in the tournament to do some motion capture for the game. Be sure to check out some awesome behind the scenes photos on the official mini-site. FIFA 16 launches in September 2015 for PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360, Xbox One, and Windows.

Kung Fury Available Now at Major Digital Retailers

One of the biggest film projects on Kickstarter is finally being released to the public. Kung Fury is a love letter to the golden age of action movies, the ’80s. The project started as a short film after David Sandberg quit his job to pursue film making. With the help of $650,000 in pledges from the popular crowdfunding platform, the movie was filmed over the last three years with plenty of assistance from friends and strangers around the world. Since then, the film has been shown at the famous Cannes Film Festival and had a music video starring David Hasselhoff.

Kung Fury is available to the public through YouTube (except in Sweden), SVT2/SVT play in Sweden, El Rey TV in the US, Steam, iTunes, Amazon, and Google Play.

Reality Check: Don’t Believe the Silent Hills on Xbox News You Hear

A lot of websites are covering the story that Microsoft is going to purchase the Silent Hills property to make it an Xbox One exclusive, citing someone at Rooster Teeth as a source. I think it is just time to bring a bit of perspective to this story as there is no way that will happen.

Not only is Konami trying to scrub the existence of Silent Hills, but they also were clear about a cancellation. Could we see a revival down the road? You bet. A Microsoft exclusive from a JAPANESE company that is kind of having a rocky path however is just not going to happen. We can always dream though…I suppose. Silent Hill is a lot like Mega Man to be honest. We want it, but the projects that were in the works are just too much of a mess now to be put back together.

AnimEigo’s Kickstarter for ‘Otaku no Video’ Otaking Edition Subtitled Blu-ray to go Live on June 2

Robert Woodhead has announced that following the recent draft proposal of a Kickstarter for a subtitled “Otaking Edition” Blu-ray of Gainax’s mockumentary Otaku no Video, the Kickstarter will go live at 10am ET on June 2. Woodhead is the co-founder of AnimEigo, the last of the original dedicated anime licensors and distributors in North America.

The Otaking Edition Blu-ray will include the Otaku no Video 1982 OVA and the sequel OVA Zoku Otaku no Video 1985 in Japanese with English subtitles. There will also be two subtitled commentary tracks, featuring Kikuko Inoue (voice actress), Shoji Murahama (Animation Producer and “cel thief” in the OVA), Hiroyuki Yamaga (Founding Member and President of Gainax) and Hiroki Sato (Anime Producer and “garage kit otaku” in the OVA). These will be curated by anime historian Toru Sano. An English language commentary track may be added. A Klingon subtitle track will be included if a stretch goal is met.

Physical bonuses will include a 9-panel insert sheet with mini-poster, printed program notes, colour artwork, line art (settei), scans of the original after-recording scripts and more. All non-digital-only backers will be credited on the disc. The packaging of the basic set will be a premium transparent Amaray case with a reversible sleeve insert. The character designer of the OVA, Ken’ichi Sonoda, will produce new artwork and graphics materials for use as stretch goals.

For a higher bitrate, AnimEigo will be using a BD50. The recent Japanese release used a BD25. All three subtitle tracks, the main feature and two commentary tracks, will be featured in both multicolour and greyscale variants. The Blu-ray will be region-free and can be shipped worldwide except to Japan.

Go Inside Out with Disney Infinity 3.0

So just yesterday we had some details about the upcoming Twilight of the Republic Play Set for Disney Infinity 3.0: Star Wars, but like many of you, I was eager to learn more about the Disney Originals that would be featured in the upcoming game. Well, not even 24 hours later, Disney have provided us with some killer new info regarding the Inside Out Play Set.

Based on the upcoming (in like two weeks I’m pretty sure) animated feature film from Disney and Pixar, the Inside Out Play Set takes place in Riley’s mind after she inadvertently catches a glimpse of a scary movie as she is falling asleep. Here, players will be able to place down the figures for one of her “emotions;” Joy, Fear, Anger, Disgust and Sadness and play through what looks to be an incredible platforming adventure.

According to Disney, there will be three different game modes that feature a twist on traditional platforming:

Clouds, which fade or emit lightning;
Musical platforms, which must be precisely timed in sync with the beat, and;
Gravity barriers, which flip the player and the world upside down.

I remember back when Disney Infinity 1.0 launched, and I commented in my review that I loved how the different Play Sets all seemed inspired by different games and genres. Well don’t get me wrong, I loved the 2.0 Play Sets, but I am absolutely thrilled to see the different genre games making a comeback in a big way this year.

Below we have a short trailer and a big of a gallery of images of the Play Set to check out, so feel free to do that and make sure you stay tuned to Capsule Computers because you never know when we will have the latest Disney Infinity news available.
