Was Sabo in Loguetown when Luffy was almost executed by Buggy in One Piece? It’s a question that has plagued anime fans for almost 30 years.Sparked by a teasing panel in Chapter 98 of Eiichiro Oda’s beloved manga, which was published in July 1999 and depicts the silhouette of a mystery figure wearing a tall hat and fair hair in the city’s square, readers have long believed that Luffy’s blond-haired “brother” Sabo was there. It’s never been confirmed, though… until now that is, thanks to a surprise cameo from the character in One Piece season 2.The silent introduction comes in…

Things have moved on, though. With magnetic switches taking over the high-end…

As someone borderline dependent on Animal Crossing for my nighttime wind down, there’s no way I could turn my back on my island fam – my sweet Chester, my kibble-loving Nibbles. But I have to say, I haven’t been this jealous of an adjacent cozy community in a minute, as Pokemon Pokopia players have been sharing some of the most wonderfully unhinged dialogue I’ve seen since the early ’00s, back when the original Animal Crossing’s villagers would send you letters with musings like, “I fear oblivion.”Anyway, back to Pokopia. Poking around on social media, it seems like Nintendo really let…

Samurai Champloo is one of the best action anime shows ever (at least in my opinion), and it’s returning after over 20 years as a live-action Netflix series from the studio behind the smash-hit live-action adaptation of One Piece. What’s more, original series creator Shinichirō Watanabe is on board.The news comes via Variety, with One Piece Netflix creators Marty Adelstein and Becky Clements offering a few insights into how they got the original creator to offer his guidance.”We had dinner with [Watanabe] in Japan and said, if we move forward on doing ‘Samurai Champloo,’ we really want you to be…

Palworld maker Pocketpair won’t suddenly end major updates after the upcoming release of Palworld 1.0, but publishing head John Buckley says big patches can’t realistically go on forever, or even for a decade.Speaking with GamesRadar+ at GDC, Buckley recognizes, “A lot of our hardcore fans and players would love for Palworld to be this No Man’s Sky situation where it’s like a decade of continuous, massive updates. But realistically, that’s probably not on the cards for Palworld, not only because of engine limitations, but also, it’s a survival crafting game. I think there’s only so many times you can add…

Even with characters from one of the biggest and most beloved IPs of all time, Marvel Rivals maker NetEase was still taking a significant risk releasing a live-service hero shooter in 2024, just months after PlayStation launched and then subsequently killed its own similar game, Concord.Unsurprisingly, that risk was not lost on NetEase, with publishing and marketing lead Yachen Bian telling GamesRadar+ at this year’s GDC that the team felt “panic” stepping into the live-service graveyard. But instead of expecting failure, the team set out to ensure it didn’t step into the same pitfalls of the dead live-service shooters laying…

Whether it’s Todd Howard’s many coy remarks in recent months, or the steady flow of speculation from insiders and leakers, remasters of classic Fallout games seem inevitable. While Fallout 76’s ever-evolving world has benefited greatly from the buzz around the TV show, the absence of a brand-new Fallout game has been pointed out by, well, pretty much every one. Reviving some of its post-apocalyptic RPGs would be one way in which Bethesda could capitalize, and with The Elder Scrolls Oblivion’s remaster being a huge success last year, there’s proof that it’d be a worthwhile exercise. New Vegas and Fallout 3…

Diablo 4’s upcoming Lord of Hatred expansion will address the long-running issue of overpowered builds from a new angle. Instead of countering those builds with nerfs, which everyone hates, Blizzard is adding a whopping eight new Torment, or difficulty tiers, in an attempt to give players a better excuse for their stupidly overpowered characters.The news was quietly revealed in a recent interview with YouTuber Wudijo, in which associate game director Zaven Haroutunian explains the reasoning for adding so many new Torment tiers beyond the current four. “Big numbers feel cool, they feel good for players to get. Just, you know, ‘oh…

It’s no secret that those shadowy guys with all the money to fund games generally don’t have much interest in narrative heavy, singleplayer games. And yet even still, games like Dispatch continue to do very well for themselves. Even still, for developer AdHoc Studio, the funding process doesn’t sound like it was an easy one, but in their self-admitted “arrogance and stupidity,” they went on to make it anyway. GDC kicked off yesterday (sorry, GDC Festival of Gaming, whatever that means), and Dispatch creative directors and AdHoc co-founders Nick Hermand and Dennis Lenart took part in a talk…

What are the Elden Ring bosses in order? The most defining moments in soulslike games are the tough boss fights. They can be tricky for several reasons; some are hard to hit consistently, while others can annihilate you with just one attack. The Lands Between boasts over 200 Elden Ring bosses, but you only need to beat 12 bosses to finish the game. In addition to an ordered list of mandatory boss encounters, our list of Elden Ring bosses includes where to find them and what rewards they drop. We’ve also collated the top five Elden Ring bosses in order of…
