We initially heard that the ARMS Global Testpunch would include seven playable characters. However, fans were hopeful that the full roster would be in after the official eShop listing made note of seven.

Well, bad news. That listing has been updated, and now says seven instead of ten.

Here’s a screenshot:

So that’s it then. No Twintelle, Byte & Barq, or Kid Cobra. You’ll be able to play as Spring Man, Ribbon Girl, Master Mummy, Ninjara, Mechanica, Min Min, and Helix.

A rather silly rumor has been making the rounds over the past day or so. In the latest Boys’ Life magazine, a quote was found that led some people to believe that Nintendo will be announcing new Animal Crossing and Pikmin games for Switch at E3.

The quote is as follows:

“Since Nintendo already launched its Switch console and the epic Zelda: Breath of the Wild earlier this year, what’s left to announce? Updates on cool Switch games like Super Mario Odyssey, Splatoon 2, Animal Crossing and even a new Pikmin title.”

GameXplain reached out to the source directly for an answer. As expected, Boys’ Life did say that this was only conjecture. If new Animal Crossing and / or Pikmin games are announced, it’ll merely be a coincidence.

EA won’t have a traditional press conference at E3 this year. That’s in large part because the publisher is hosting its own event dedicated for fans, known as EA Play 2017.

The full lineup for EA Play 2017 was announced today. Interestingly, FIFA on Switch will be playable for the first time (as of now it’s not using the FIFA 18 name by the way).

EA Play 2017 will take place on the following days / times at the Hollywood Palladium:

Saturday June 10 from 4pm – 8pm
Sunday June 11 from 12pm – 6pm
Monday June 12 from 12pm – 5pm

EA Play 2017 will be fully open to the public. Free tickets can be ordered here.
