In the year 2042, the genius scientist Dr. Yui Rich Atsuga unveiled her greatest invention. After that, the world was never the same. [GEAR System] This was the name given to the groundbreaking power system that allowed vehicles to surpass all prior speed and mobility limitations. Scientists around the world scrambled to utilize the highly advanced technology for themselves. With the new system, they built pilotable humanoid robots. These bipedal walking robots, once a distant dream, could outspeed ordinary vehicles. They possessed greater agility than humans, thanks to balancers utilizing the system, and a race to build the best units had begun. These robots were known as [GEAR], derived from the name of the system that unlocked their potential.

However, Dr. Atsuga’s invention would ultimately lead to humanity’s extinction. The year is now 2097. The [GEAR] turn on their human masters. Within two weeks, 80% of the world’s population is annihilated. The remnants of humanity have been forced to live underground. In order to fight these rogue machines, mankind turns once again to the [GEAR System]. The fate of humanity rests on the upcoming war to recapture the surface.

KAIO: King of Pirates Officially Cancelled

After being announced for release in 2012, then delayed until sometime in 2014 only for no footage or updates to be made throughout all of last year, it shouldn’t come as much of a surprise that KAIO: King of Pirates, a 3DS action RPG led by Comcept and Keiji Inaune, has been officially cancelled by Marvelous.

In the official press release it was stated that the decision to cancel KAIO: King of Pirates came from a sudden change in the marketplace that convinced the publisher that it was best to give up on the game despite believing that it could be a strong IP for the company and was originally meant to be the start of a trilogy.

Everyone knew it was coming and it was pretty much a given that it would be multi-platform this time around but an official statement never hurts. Respawn founder and CEO Vince Zampella recently told IGN that Titanfall 2 is in the works, though no official name has been settled on as of yet, and that the game will be “multiplatform.” Meaning of course that the title will likely be arriving on the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC this time.

Other than the confirmation that EA and Respawn do have a sequel in the works, Zampella had no extra details to reveal at the time, though he did say that he did not like how the map pack DLC was splitting the community up which means things may be handled a bit differently next time.

Also shown off are Johnny and Sonya’s new moves and if you stick around to the end you’ll notice that a certain four armed creature is returning as a pre-order bonus.
