A new clip from Bayonetta 2’s Tag Climax mode can be found above. You’ll also find a summary of information below, which includes a few bits about the Fox McCloud costume.

Fox McCloud costume

– Game refers to it as Star Mercenary
– If you select the guns, the weapons change into Arwing-shaped blasters
– Slash with them
– If you perform a combo, the classic Star Fox shooting sound emits
– Lock-on cursor is the one from Star Fox

Tag Climax

– Cooperative competitive mode
– Each character works together to defeat hordes of enemies while also striving to get the most points
– Each match has 6 missions
– The ones that you can choose are unlocked throughout the game
– These are formed from previous encounters in the story mode and put on a new spin on them to make a bit more challenging
– Choose the amount of Halos to bet beforehand
– Bet more Halos to increase the chaotic nature of the battle
– If the other person falls down and you don’t revive your opponent in 15 seconds, you both lose automatically
– All the Halos you earned in previous missions are worthless and you have to start over
– Play with friends or random opponents
– If you don’t have many online friends, you are kind of forced to play it against the computer
– Can’t play locally

Xenoblade Chronicles X is the first HD game from Monolith Soft. As such, executive producer Tetsuya Takahashi says the game is laying the groundwork for Monolith’s HD development “so as to not overreach ourselves and cause problems.”

Takahashi told EDGE this month:

“Xenoblade Chronicles X is the first HD project for Monolith Soft, so instead of setting a number of hard-to-achieve targets, we are working on steadily building up key skills. Our goal with this game is first to lay the groundwork for [our] HD game development, so as to not overreach ourselves and cause problems.”

We’ve seen listings on retailers over the past few weeks, but Little Orbit and Bandai Namco have made the Penguins of Madagascar game official. It’s due out for Wii U, Wii, and 3DS on November 28.

Below is an official overview:

The four web-footed operatives, Skipper, Kowalski, Rico and Private, uncover a nefarious plot by the evil octopus, Dave (Dr.Octavious Brine) to destroy the penguin world as we know it. Players will travel to top-secret locales and embark on covert missions to thwart Dave’s evil plans.

Players will be able to play as the four penguins and instantly swap between them depending on the situation encountered. For example, Rico, a demolitions expert, loves to blow things to smithereens while Skipper can dish out his stun slap to give enemy octopi high-powered smackdowns! Players can solve puzzles by choosing the penguin whose natural skills are best suited for the task.

Screenshots from the Penguins of Madagascar game can be found above.
