Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity

Last week was pretty significant for Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity. Fans were treated to the first gameplay footage, a new trailer, and even the confirmation of young Impa being in the game.

Producers Yosuke Hayashi and Masaki Furusawa as well as director Ryota Matsushita were the team members representing Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity at the TGS 2020 Online presentation. To close things about, the three developers shared a few words about the game, including satisfying fans of Zelda: Breath of the Wild.

Mario Kart Live: Home Circuit

A bunch of new videos have just come in for Mario Kart Live: Home Circuit. We’ve rounded up a new trailer, developer interview, Japanese commercials, and gameplay below.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Minecraft

Another major third-party franchise is joining Super Smash Bros. Ultimate in the form of Minecraft. As one would expect, this isn’t something that came together rather quickly. You may be interested to hear just how long something like this has been in the works though.

Former Mojang Studios business developer Daniel Kaplan briefly weighed in on today’s news on Twitter. Apparently, talks of Minecraft in Smash Bros. began “at least five” years ago. When pressed further, Kaplan added that he has “no idea when implementation started.”

Minecraft’s addition to the Super Smash Bros. universe was revealed in a presentation earlier today. Director Masahiro Sakurai will be delivering a lengthy presentation on October 3 to further explain the DLC and will be providing a release date.
