Metroid Dread "Report Vol. 9"

Nintendo and MercurySteam are back with another report for Metroid Dread. Rather than bringing along major reveals, this one is more about informing players about what to expect. It includes information about controls, exploration, and more.

Here’s the full rundown:

monster hunter rise Malzeno

At TGS 2021 today, Capcom confirmed that Malzeno is the flagship monster for the Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak expansion. It’s confirmed to be “a fierce elder dragon”, but Capcom didn’t have a whole lot else to say.

Outside of Malzeno, we do have a little bit of additional news. Shogun Ceanataur, a crab-like monster who first appeared in Monster Hunter 2, will be present in Sunbreak as well.

Here are a couple of videos for Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak teasing both Malzeno and Shogun Ceanataur:

Children of Morta ancient spirits

Support for the action RPG Children of Morta continues with a free update and upcoming Ancient Spirits DLC.

Today’s update includes Consecration, a new objective added to the combat-focused Family Trials mode. Two full language localizations have been added as well including voiceovers in Persian and Japanese. The Japanese voiceover features the talented Takaya Hashi, who has previously worked on Naruto and Sailor Moon. Hashi acts as the game’s narrator.

Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy - The Definitive Edition

A rating for Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition has just now surfaced. The game appeared in Korea’s classification database earlier today.

Grand Theft Auto III, Vice City, and San Andreas remasters were rumored just over a month ago. Based on a Kotaku report, the games have been redone primarily by Rockstar Dundee in Unreal Engine and will feature a mix of “new and old graphics”. The titles will supposedly have updated UI but will hold on to the same classic style. The goal is ultimate to stay true to the PS2-era GTA games as much as possible.
