Splatoon 3's Drizzle Season 2023 Comes with New Content - Hardcore Gamer

Devolver Digital just recently announced the release dates for two of their most anticipated games this year, Gunbrella and Wizard With a Gun, and considering the common link between the two games, the release window, and the release dates only being a month apart, it looks like the publisher is officially preparing to make this the Autumn of Ammunition. Or the Autumn of Unorthodox Guns, if you want to be a bit more accurate, but that doesn’t have the appeal of alliteration. But yes, Gunbrella is now primed for a September release, with Wizard With a Gun to follow in October.

Splatoon 3 was already going to have a big month in September. It wasn’t too surprising to learn that due to how the game’s 1st anniversary would be this month. Since its launch, the title has been one of Nintendo’s biggest games, especially in Japan, where it’s been selling like hotcakes for a year. We found out a little while back that today would be the arrival of the new “season” content via “Drizzle Season,” which you can enjoy right now. But Nintendo has decided to reveal even more stuff for gamers to enjoy today, including the arrival of a new Big Run event.

Seeing as Gamescom is now over and fans still haven’t gotten any news about Hollow Knight: Silksong, it’s looking like metroidvania enthusiast still have a while to wait until they can get their hands on what many suspect will be the genre’s next top-tier release.

Infinity Strash: Dragon Quest The Adventure of Dai was announced last year and the launch date is growing ever closer. Dragon Quest: The Adventures of Dai debuted as a manga back in 1991 and has more recently been adapted into an anime. Players of the mobile game Dragon Quest Tact are likely familiar with Dai thanks to a couple crossover events that occurred over the last couple years. Infinity Strash: Dragon Quest The Adventures of Dai is an action RPG based on the manga and anime. In this upcoming game players will be able to reenact events from The Adventures of Dai. Those who have been curious about the different game modes and what this title will look like in action will have their curiosity at least partially satisfied by the action packed trailer before.

Today, EA and Codemasters have announced a celebration to the restart of the Formula One season. After the summer break, the F1 calendar returns as F1 23 will offer new content for its F1 World. From August 29 to September 4, players can race against the lap time of back-to-back World Champion Max Verstappen at Circuit Zandvoort. Those who beat Verstappen’s lap time of 1:10:621 will earn his special Formula 1 Dutch Grand Prix 2023 helmet in-game that shows off the victory. After that time on September 5, players can then go head-to-head against Charles Leclerc to win a special Scuderia Ferrari item for the Formula One Pirelli Gran Premio D’Italia 2023.

Today, Sony officially announced and named the PlayStation Portal remote player and it will launch by the end of the year. The retail price for the remote play device is slated at $199.99 and pre-orders will begin soon. The PlayStation Portal offers an 8-inch LCD screen that will run at 1080p resolution at 60 FPS. Smaller screens don’t require as many pixels due to the lesser area that needs to be covered, so 1080p for this will bring out excellent visuals. Players can expect the key features of the DualSense wireless controllers with adaptive triggers and haptic feedback. It will also include a 3.5mm audio jack for wired audio.

The much-anticipated Alan Wake II is only a couple of months away at this point, feeling so soon all of a sudden despite a lengthy wait. Among the unique draws of Remedy’s latest horror game is the use of dual protagonists in the form of writer Alan Wake and FBI agent Saga Anderson. And while the last bit of gameplay we saw from Summer Game Fest focused on Saga, a larger focus was put on Alan this time around during the new trailer that debuted during Gamescom Opening Night Live, and as Saga’s adventures are in the real world, Alan finds himself dealing with the surreal realm of the Dark Place.

There have been a few Paper Mario clones on the market, but none of them have quite nailed the combat flow of the fist two entries. Bug Fables came the closest of matching the tone and art style, with the combat coming pretty close as well. One thing that hurt it though was the all-bug cast and that making it a little harder to get into the story and the attempted drama.
