Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound Gets New Footage And A Release Date At Sony's State Of Play https://ift.tt/AWlu3Fo Koei Tecmo released a new trailer for Ninja Gaiden Ragebound at Sony's State of Play, as well as the official release date: July 31. Ragebound will have players taking not just one but two ninjas on a demon hunt: Ryu from the Hayabusa clan, and a kunoichi, Kumori, from the Black Spider clan. They'll be taking on a whole legion of demons with combo-based gameplay that aims to blend both the old-school side-scrolling gameplay of the NES games, and the hard-as-nails demon-slaying of the 3D games. Check out the new trailer above, which not only shows off some extremely pretty new gameplay, but also the fact that the soundtrack will include remixes of the original NES game's soundtrack from some of the original composers.

AEW: Fight Forever Review - A Midcard Debut https://ift.tt/G7KS5jx
In 2019, All Elite Wrestling opened its doors and immediately changed the professional wrestling world. For the first time in a long while, a promotion emerged which could rival the longtime king of American pro wrestling, WWE. There have undeniably been some growing pains, but four years later, AEW continues to be a popular alternative option for wrestling fans. Now, the company is trying to do the same in the video game world with AEW: Fight Forever, and much like those first AEW shows, the game is a promising debut effort--but with some noticeable room for improvement.
Fight Forever features 47 wrestlers--a far cry from the 218 wrestlers in WWE 2K23, for comparison--at the start, with more able to be unlocked via the in-game shop with currency earned through playing the game. AEW mainstays like MJF, Kenny Omega, Jon Moxley, Dr. Britt Baker D.M.D., "Hangman" Adam Page, and The Young Bucks are here, as well as a few surprising entries. Some of them are heartwarming tributes to wrestlers who have passed away--like Mr. Brodie Lee and Owen Hart--while others are names who have departed to the competition like Cody Rhodes. There are plenty of names missing--the current AEW Women's Champion Toni Storm, the previous women's champion Jamie Hayter, and two-thirds of the Trios Champion House Of Black, for example--but it does represent most of the top talent currently in the promotion.
What's cool about Fight Forever's approach to the roster is that everyone is on an even playing field. There are no ratings in Fight Forever; I can pick any matchup I want and have the same chance of winning no matter who I'm controlling. And I do mean "any matchup I want," as intergender matches--which aren't available in WWE's current game series--are completely fine here. The game treats its roster less like a wrestling simulation, with clear divisions and ratings that separate the big stars from the midcard talent, and more like a fighting game where anyone can fight anyone, no questions asked. Being able to book whoever I want in a match, regardless of gender, size, or any other factors, is a really cool approach and I love that Fight Forever opted for it.
