This weekend, GameStop locations across the United States are hosting demo events for Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled. As part of this, Tiger Temple has been playable and fans have been uploading some of the first off-screen footage.

Here’s a look at the racing level:

Puyo Puyo Champions

Back in November, SEGA trademarked Puyo Puyo Champions. Some believed that this could be the English name for Puyo Puyo eSports. That speculation seems to have proven correct after all.

In the latest issue of Neo Magazine, a Puyo Puyo feature is apparently included. It includes commentary from director Mizuki Hosoyamada and the reveal that Puyo Puyo eSports is heading west. The game will be released as the previously-rumored Puyo Puyo Champions.

Brand new DLC is now available for The LEGO Movie 2 Videogame, and it’s entirely free. Warner Bros. has released the Galactic Adventures Character & Level Pack at no extra cost to current players.

Mortal Kombat 11

After Mortal Kombat 11’s launch next week, Warner Bros. Interactive and NetherRealm Studios won’t be finished with the game. More characters will be added to the game in the form of DLC.

The identity of those characters may have now been revealed. Interestingly enough, the information seems to have been uncovered by poking through the files of the Switch version. While Mortal Kombat 11 doesn’t launch until next week, it appears to have spread online with the game itself leaking and retailers selling copies early.

At PAX East 2019, Nintendo concluded two tournaments – one for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, and another for Splatoon 2. The Smash Bros. tournament was particularly noteworthy since it strayed a bit from community-organized events. Smash Balls were turned on, and items in general were allowed. Not all top players were happy about that, since they believe it goes against fair competition.

In an interview with Polygon, Nintendo of America senior director of product marketing Bill Trinen explained the decision. Trinen said that Nintendo was “trying to attract as many people who don’t normally play in tournaments.”
