I made eggs this morning. That isn’t video game related, I just didn’t know how to start this one. Here’s the news.
- Fortnite to Invest $100m in Tournaments
- Yakuza 3, 4, 5 to be Remastered
- Rec Room Battle Royale
Fortnite Tournaments
In a recent announcement by Epic Games, Fortnite will be dedicating $100,000,000 towards Fortnite competitions held in the 2018-2019 season. That’s all they said, but it’s still a mind-boggling number all the same. Hows your Fortnite skills.
Yakuza Remasters
According to the latest issue of Dengeki PlayStation, Yakuza 3, 4, and 5 will be remastered in Japan. The Japanese magazine states that a Yakuza 3 remaster is expected to release on PS4 in Japan on August 9 for 3,990 yen, Yakuza 4 in fall of 2018, and Yakuza 5 in spring 2019. The announcement also made it’s way to Famitsu, who provided further details. According to them, the remasters will be the same as the originals, but running at 1080p resolution and at 60 frames per second.
Rec Room Battle Royale
In a recent announcement by developers Against Gravity, popular social VR game Rec Room will be receiving a battle royale mode.
“Rec Royale launches on Thursday, 7th June and will pit 16 players against each other in the wilds of a national park. The landscape holds summer camps, mountains, forests, outposts, ravines, lakes, and tons of loot for scavenging,” said Shawn, an Against Gravity employee.
They also will be updating their inventory system to better support the mode. What with all the loot and such. I’m actually pretty excited about this one. I love Rec Room, when it’s not lousy with children.
That’s all for today. Join me tomorrow for further news and such. Find me on Steam if you want to become Rec Room Battle Royale Bros. Otherwise, have a great day.
