Yesterday it was rumored that Deus Ex: Human Revolution would be coming to the Wii U and today Square Enix confirmed that rumor and released various details about the game. Deus Ex: Human Revolution – The Director’s Cut as it is called will be a Wii U version of the game that features various touch screen features such as touch screen hacking, interactive map editing, sniping, grenade throwbacks and more.

The game will also feature something Square Enix is calling “in-depth Miiverse integration” as well as developer commentaries, in-game guides and overhauled boss fights for everyone who complained about it. It will also support improved AI, a few visual improvements and more game balances.

Also included in Deus Ex: Human Revolution – The Director’s Cut is the Tong Rescue Mission and Missing Link DLC chapter, both of which have been “integrated seamlessly into the narrative flow” of the game.

Atelier Meruru Plus’ final countdown trailer says Rorona Plus will “not be released”

Meruru-Plus-swimsuit- (20)

Today the final countdown video for Atelier Meruru Plus was released on Gust’s official channel and this time around we have not only the game’s director Yoshito Okamura providing text narration, the game’s producer Keisuke Kikuchi shows up as well.

However there is some bad news for his visit, it seems that Atelier Rorona, the first game in the Arland series, will not be given the Plus treatment. He states that it “doesn’t have the kind of content” that the series requires for a Plus version. He does say that the company wants to make the game “an expansion that conveys the reason why we left it for last.” Whether this means that there may be a final ultimate version for Rorona sometime in the future is currently unknown.

Anyways, Atelier Meruru Plus will be released in Japan this week, and since Atelier Totori Plus was stealth released onto the PlayStation Network in the West yesterday, perhaps Meruru will show up too. Only this time, let’s hope Tecmo Koei actually announces their plans on localizing the game.

Jump-Screen-0

For those who don’t know; “Jump VS” is an upcoming collection of 12 one-shot, action packed manga “Chapters” all collected into one magazine based around the heroes of the Shonen Jumps Universe.

Set for release in Japan on the 22nd of March, which happens to be tomorrow, this incredible idea of a manga will pit character against character from the weekly Shonen Jumps lineup. Naruto, Bleach, Toriko, One Piece and others could all be going head to head (Depending what artist draws/writes the chapter) within this mag making for some explosive and question answering battles! Who would win between Naruto and Ichigo? Keep your eyes open for this one…you might just find out!

The magazine will feature specials by well known artist along with a few one off drawings and panels from newcomers to Jump!

Check out some of the previews we’ve gotten below.

Steam introduces “Early Access”

Steam-Beta-game

Steam has launched a new programmed called “Early Access”, where Steam community involved games are available to play while in Beta. You can either play a free game, or purchase one with money. This is not the same as a pre purchase, with Early Access when  you buy the game you get full access to it in its current playable state. Discretion is encouraged on purchasing a game that is in Beta.

There are currently 12 games in this program, including AMRA 3 Alpha and Under the Ocean. One should check the previous updates to games to make sure your purchase will be well worth it, and official release dates of games are completely up to the developer. For more detailed information on Early Access, check out the Early Access FAQ.

One Piece: Pirate Warriors 2 Has An English Trailer!

OnePiece-Screen-1

And the name of that trailer is “Will United”!

Namco Bandai Europe began streaming this trailer last friday, this same trailer was shown in Japan a month earlier.

Japan has already gotten their release of the game, Namco Bandai released it  last Wednesday, and it’ll find its way onto our store shelves sometime during Summer this year.

This game is based within the New World Arc of One Piece but as we can see from the trailer a great deal of older characters, dead or alive, make a return this is because of the added mode called “Pirate’s Log” where new and old characters and story Arcs like Punk Hazard can be unlocked and played. Something else that is different from the first game is the mass amount of playable “Baddies” something they didn’t exactly give us to play around with in the first one.

Go and check out the trailer in the featured video section below and give us your opinions in the comments section just under it!
