Nintendo’s North American Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze teaser site is now open. Access it here. The full site is apparently coming soon, though the wait could be awhile given how Tropical Freeze was recently pushed back to February 2014.

The site houses Donkey Kong’s debut trailer as well as a first screenshot. There’s also a very brief overview with a confirmation that six islands are included, featuring Mangrove swamps, Savannah storms, ocean depths, and the frozen landscape of DK Island.

Thanks to Tytygh for the tip.

Ubisoft is bringing a pair of games to this year’s New York Comic-Con. Watch_Dogs as well as South Park: The Stick of Truth will have a presence at the expo next weekend.

Attendees can expect the following from Watch_Dogs’ appearance:

Watch Dogs – ctOS Mobile delivers revolutionary dual-screen gameplay and takes the player’s experience beyond the console. A real-time companion game, Watch Dogs – ctOS Mobile allows users to connect and compete with each other from anywhere, at any time.
