A new Pokemon Sun/Moon mode just debuted during Nintendo’s E3 Treehouse stream. Through what was shown, we were given a first look at “Battle Royal”.

Battle Royal is a new multiplayer mode. In it, four players compete in a free-for-all with three Pokemon that are sent out one-by-one. As soon as someone loses all of their Pokemon, it ends and players are tallied by defeated Pokemon and remaining Pokemon. This determines who wins.

The first day of Nintendo Treehouse: Live @ E3 2016 is set to begin in about an hour from now. We should see the broadcast begin at 9 AM PT / 12 PM ET / 5 PM in the UK / 6 PM in Europe.

Assuming what Nintendo said recently still holds true, Pokemon Sun/Moon should be kicking off the stream. Zelda Wii U / NX will then be shown after.

You can watch it all as it happens below. When any big news comes in, we’ll be putting up new posts on the site.

* Note: we’ll likely swap out Twitch for YouTube. Nintendo should hopefully have a YouTube option up before the show starts.

During Sony’s E3 2016 media briefing tonight, it was announced that Crash Bandicoot will be joining Skylanders Imaginators. But as it turns out, the character isn’t exclusive to PlayStation.

If you obtain the figure, you’ll be able to play as Crash in the Wii U version of the game. Right now there are only plans to offer it in the PlayStation 4 Starter Pack version, but you’ll probably be seeing the figure pop up on eBay. Activision will likely give Crash a standalone release at some point in the future as well.

Here’s a trailer:
