After much speculation, The House of Mouse today finally announced that the two lead characters from their upcoming animated, comic book adaptation; Big Hero 6 will be joining the rest of the cast in Disney Infinity 2.0: Marvel Super Heroes.

Hyperdimension Neptunia Victory II’s teaser trailer highlights Neptunia H

As we previously reported, Hyperdimension Neptunia Victory II will feature three different dimensions that players can travel between and each one will feature a unique story. Today Compile Heart released a new teaser trailer for their upcoming PlayStation 4 game and this trailer happens to focus on Heart Dimension Neptunia H: Trilogy Final Into the Legend.

It is worth noting that the trailer, found below, gives us very little information on Hyperdimension Neptunia Victory II but some of the words that appear on the screen include light, heart, friendship, “awaken from the nightmare,” and “center of the world.” The final message in the video reads roughly as “I will follow you anywhere if you wish for it… and then well will see the same dream.”

Resident Evil HD comparison screenshots released

As you may or may not have known, Capcom is planning on releasing a high-def version of the first Resident Evil, which was already given an upgrade back in the day. As such, today Capcom posted a few new screenshots of their Resident Evil REmake, some of which are standard HD screenshots while the real eye-catchers happen to be the comparison images.

As you can see below, these screenshots show a major improvement over the original, though it is worth noting that the blurriness of some of these screenshots might be due to the way that they were taken, unless my memory of the title somehow features a blur-reducer.

Have you ever wanted to tackle those dangerous dungeons with a friend? Well, turns out in Dragon Age: Inquisition, you’ll be able to do just that! With up to three others! EA and BioWare just announced a four player co-op multiplayer mode for the highly anticipated RPG sequel.

The quests available are completely separate to the single-player campaign. Collecting loot, salvaging items, crafting new weapons and armour, and unlocking new characters along the way (up to twelve of them across the three classes – Legionnaire, Reaver and Mage), players will enjoy the standalone multiplayer-focused experience for what it is. Aaryn Flynn, General Manager, BioWare, said of the mode;

For Dragon Age: Inquisition, a special team of veteran developers from the Dragon Age and Mass Effect franchises created fun, fast-paced multiplayer gameplay that requires strategic teamwork on top of Inquisition’s party-based combat and extensive loot and crafting system. It was early in the game’s development that we realized how much fun fans of our series were having, with so many players teaming up in Mass Effect 3’s multiplayer mode. We can’t wait to give Dragon Age fans an even bigger and deeper experience.

Check out a bunch of fresh-off-the-presses multiplayer screenshots below. Dragon Age: Inquisition releases on November 20 in Australia and November 21 in New Zealand for the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, Xbox One, Xbox 360 and PC via Origin.
