What a better day than a Tuesday to announce some game stuff. Why? Don’t ask me. Here’s that news.
- Guacamelee is Coming to Nintendo Switch
- Borderlands 2 gets PSVR Treatment
- Pikachu Wears a Douchey Hat
Guacamelee on Switch
According to developers Drinkbox Studios, the luchador style platformer (Metroidvania, I suppose) will be coming to the Nintendo Switch. The first game is actually available now in the Nintendo eShop, with the sequel to be made available later this year. If you’re a fan of the genre, and of Mexican food, I recommend taking a look.
Borderlands 2 VR
Gearbox has announced plans for a PlayStation VR adaption of their hit shooter from 2012, Borderlands 2. The game will feature standard VR controls, as well as a new BAMF mode, which temporarily slows time for everyone but the player. The VR adaptions will not support multiplayer, however. It releases on December 14 for $49.99. It’s a bit steep if you ask me. But Skyrim did the same thing, I suppose.
If it cost $30, I’d have been much more inclined to get it.
Pikachu’s new hat
Do you ever look at your Pokemon and wonder what it’d be like if they smoked JUULs and didn’t tip their waitress? Don’t worry! There’s a Pikachu for you. A new outfitted variation of the electric mouse has appeared in Pokemon GO recently, sporting a new, tilted cap. Players will also discover a new selection of clothing items for their avatars, also sporting the same thunderbolt logo.
Apparently, this is part of a collaboration between clothing company Fragment. Dubbed “Thunderbolt Project,” the company is releasing a line of real life, Pokemon-themed clothing some time next year. To promote the crossover, players can get these items in their game.
That’s all for today, folks. Thanks for tuning in. Come back tomorrow for another news post thing of the news. Yes. Otherwise, have a great day!
