Tuesday 6-26-18: Captain Spirit is Out, Fallout for Charity, and Mario Kart Labo

Long day yesterday, I almost overslept. Here’s the news.

  • Captain Spirit is Available
  • Fallout 76’s Country Roads for Charity
  • Nintendo Adds Mario Kart Support for Labo

The Awesome Adventures of Captain Spirit


If you tuned in to this year’s E3, you may have heard about Captain Spirit. The demo game follows 9-year-old Chris and his endless imagination, taking place in the Life is Strange universe. The single chapter game is not available on Steam. Your decisions in this will reportedly have an impact on when you play Life is Strange 2.

Fallout for Charity


When Fallout 76 was announced, it was to the tune of John Denver’s Country Roads. Since then, the cover has become the flagship tune for the game. Now Bethesda is taking the revitalized passion further. On July 4 (yep, Independence day), they will be releasing the cover on iTunes, where all the proceeds will be going to Habitat for Humanity. They’ve won my patronage, for sure. You can hear a segment of the song in the Fallout 76 E3 trailer.

Mario Kart Labo


Don’t you wish you could play Mario Kart with cardboard? Will if you own the Nintendo Labo, then you can! Nintendo recently announced that Mario Kart 8 for Nintendo Switch will support the Toy-Con Motorbike build from the Labo Variety Pack. Simply select the Labo option in the game menu. Up to 4 people can play this way, though each will need their own joycons and Labo builds.


Neat news day, let’s keep it up! Tune in tomorrow for the latest video game news. Or don’t, I’m not your keeper. Anyways, have a great day!
