Tekken 8 got a bit of an information blowout during Gamescom Opening Night Live. The title's latest trailer confirms a whole bunch of returning characters, and lifts the curtain on a brand new single player mode that takes inspiration from the arcade scene. In it, you'll create your own cartoony avatar and fight your way to the top. It all takes place in a hub-like arcade centre, and AI learning will apparently be utilised to keep your battles interesting. Cool!
Dark and Darker Enters Early Access After Delays, Nexon Lawsuit
08.08.2023 - 20:41 / mmorpg.com
Dark and Darker, despite continued legal issues via a copyright infringementlawsuit filed by Nexon, has entered early access. Developer Ironmace Games has created its own launcher and is selling the game independently.
Both companies are Korean, and the lawsuit alleges that Ironmace stole assets from one of Nexon’s projects and used them in the creation of Dark and Darker. Two high-profile Ironmace employees are former Nexon employees, who worked on the project in question, codenamed P3. The Ironmace team has denied the allegations, but Valve removed the game from Steam after the suit, which was filed in the USback in April.
The previously delayed Early Access launch from Ironmace is happening. Those interested can now purchase through the Dark and Darker website or through a digital platform, Chaf Games. However, the team is still waiting on approval from the Korean Game Rating Board, so they have not been able to release the game in Korea just yet.
In the official Early Access announcement, the team announced that there are still features that are missing, and acknowledged that the build someone purchases through the Early Access release is far from complete. Of course, that's part of the point of Early Access releases, so they're trying their hand at making some money to allow them to keep continuing on their project, especially since the legal trouble continues.
“Our assumption when we started this company was that you could still build a lucrative business while being true to your fans. The in-game shop is our attempt at being realistic with the business of running an online game but trying to find a way to do it without resorting to random loot boxes and FOMO items,” the announcement reads.
If you want to give Dark and Darker a chance, there’s both a standard and Founder’s Edition (with extra perks, like playertest access, the skeleton race, and cosmetics) available.
The website gametalkz.com is an aggregator of news from open sources. The source is indicated at the beginning and at the end of the announcement. You can send a complaint on the news if you find it unreliable.

Dark and Darker makes a deal with PUBG publisher Krafton for a mobile release
The sleeper hit PvP dungeon crawler Dark and Darker is still booted off Steam, and the legal dispute between developer Ironmace and Nexon means there's no telling when—or even if—it will come back. So I was a little surprised to hear that plans are now afoot for a mobile version of the game, being developed by none other than PUBG: Battlegrounds publisher Krafton.

Red Dead Redemption announced for Switch and PS4
Oh, and possibly, dear. If you were hyped up after all those rumours about a Red Dead Redemption remake then you are going to be disappointed as although the game has been announced it is for Switch and PS4 only. This is not a remake, this is not a 60fps 4K version for modern consoles, this is the old game but running on new consoles. Well, a ten year old console in the case of the PS4.
