Update: Maintenance has now ended. In North America, players will need to download an updated patch to play online. This should presumably fix issues with online worldwide play.


Pokken Tournament is affected by emergency maintenance at the moment. The game’s network services went down a few hours ago, and have not returned since. We’ll update this post when everything is back up and running.

Pokken Tournament version 1.2 is currently making it impossible for those in North America to play with others outside of the region. These users are not getting matched is because Shadow Mewtwo’s light pillar in field phase operates differently compared to the rest of the world. Since there are two versions of Shadow Mewtwo, the North American servers are unable to handle the conflicting data.

We’ll keep tabs on the situation. If the situation is fixed, we’ll be sure to let you know.

A pair of Pokken Tournament videos have landed on Nintendo UK’s YouTube page. Below you’ll find all of the matches from Hypespotting V – Scotland’s biggest fighting game tournament – along with some fan reactions.

Bandai Namco has come out with two more My Hero Academia: Battle for All character trailers. Check out videos for Tenya Iida and Ochako Uraraka below.

Pokkén Tournament will be undergoing maintenance on April 12th, starting at 9:50 PM (EST) and estimated to end at 11:30 PM. Online services will be down for the duration, and it is not indicated if this maintenance will include the previously announced Patch 1.2.

Update: The update might be coming tomorrow instead. Despite the trailer saying today (and Bandai Namco UK saying the same thing on Twitter), the press release says tomorrow. Regardless, it’s coming very soon!
