A second trailer for Haikyuu!!: Cross Team Match is now online. Check out the new video below.

A lengthy video is in containing 30 minutes of footage from Pokken Tournament. We’ve attached it below.

System: 3DS
Release date: February 16, 2016
Developer: Monolith Soft
Publisher Bandai Namco


The original Project X Zone that released back in 2013 was a pleasant surprise to fans of Capcom, SEGA, and Bandai Namco alike. It brought characters from each respective publisher into a strategy RPG format where they band together and go across space and time to defeat villains across multiple series, as well as original characters, to save the world from collapsing into itself through the constant overlapping dimensions colliding. Project X Zone 2 doesn’t veer to far from the original, featuring a lot of the same characters, maps, stories, and more. It almost makes this feel like more of an expansion than a true sequel, but that’s not such a bad thing. The fan service of bringing all these iconic characters into one game is what keeps an experience like this special, and the humor on top is a bonus throughout.

Pokken Tournament’s main lineup of content won’t be expanded – at least right out of the gate. It’s been said that there are currently no plans to release more Pokemon or stages via downloadable content. Will that change at any point in the future? That remains to be seen.

Update: The Pokémon Company has stated that there are currently no plans for DLC stages or Pokémon.

A slew of new support Pokemon have just been announced for Pokken Tournament. The lineup includes Espeon, Umbreon, Magneton, Quagsire, Cubone, and Diglet.

Below are details about each:

– Espeon uses Morning Sun which removes status conditions as well as healing Hit Points
– The less time on the clock, the more it raises
– Umbreon uses Snarl which sucks up the opponent’s Resonance Gauge and prevents them being able to land critical hits
– Cubone uses Bonemerang
– This is a quick long range attack that hits multiple times and brings opponents to you
– Diglett uses Dig which makes it easy to land combos when the opponent has been hit
– Magneton uses Tri Attack which aims upward
– It lowers opponents’ Speed & Attack and is good against jumping opponents
– Quagsire uses Mud Bomb
– It is effective on players on the ground and damages even if guarded against

– The Ferrum League is a feature exclusive to the Wii U version
– Beating stages adds more support Pokemon and battle areas

New information about Shadow Mewtwo in Pokken Tournament has emerged from this month’s issue of CoroCoro.

The magazine notes that Psywave attacks can be used in multiple ways. It can go on the offensive with Power and Technical moves that keep shifting in order to confuse the opponent. While Psywave is mainly a close combat move used for setting up combos, it can also be used as a vortex to suck in opponents. It can be used as a projectile, too.

A new interview with the developers of Project X Zone 2 has been published by Nintendo Life. The site spoke with Bandai Namco producer Kensuke Tsukanaka and Monolith Soft development director Soichiro Morizumi about the new 3DS game. Topics include how some of the new characters were chosen, the influence of fan feedback, and the series’ future.
