Elder Dragons enter Monster Hunter: World, Free Update details and final Beta revealed

Jan 06, 2018 // Yuri Araujo

Happy New Year, hunters! 2018 is here and Monster Hunter: World is less than 3 weeks away, but today we debuted even more details to fuel the hype train leading up to the PS4 and Xbox One launch on January 26.

As you can see in the trailer above, the New World is filled with a vast roster of unique monsters for you to hunt and craft gear from. Today we’ve revealed a new monster called Dodogama, a crystal-eating wyvern that can coat its favorite snack with a unique saliva that turns them into explosive projectiles, as well as returning fan-favorites from a calamitous category of monsters: the Elder Dragons!

Enter the Elder Dragons

The main plot of Monster Hunter: World centers around uncovering the mysterious migration patterns of Elder Dragons, dubbed the Elder Crossing, and has you chasing the trails of the colossal Zorah Magdaros. But the New World is also home to some of the fiercest and most formidable elders of the Monster Hunter universe:

Kushala Daora, the steel dragon, will bring the harshest storms and strongest winds you’ll ever encounter to the fight.

Teostra, the flame king dragon, will burn anyone who dares approach him using his hellish flames.

As a huge fan of both of these majestic beings, I am ecstatic to go toe-to-toe against them in the New World.

Final Beta

And if all this talk about Elder Dragons got you itching for a challenge, then get ready to face off against our newest flagship monster Nergigante in the final Monster Hunter: World PS4 Beta, starting on January 18 at 6pm PST and going until January 21 at 5:59pm PST. This last Beta will be available for preload on January 17, but no need to download anything new if you’ve kept your download from either of the first two Betas; this one will update with the new quest automatically when you log in.

Free Post-Launch Updates: Deviljho

As we approach the release of Monster Hunter: World on January 26, we want to emphasize that it’s only the beginning. You’ll enter a new world completely filled with new adventures, but our development team is already hard at work at expanding that experience even further with free regular content updates, as well as free major title updates. Coming up this Spring is the first major title update featuring everyone’s favorite raging pickle brute wyvern: Deviljho!

Hold on to your butts!

Puzzle Fighter gets Platinum Leagues

Jan 04, 2018 // Jeffery Simspon

Competition has been fierce in Puzzle Fighter since our launch, with players battling to reach and then dominate the Gold, Super Gold and Ultra Gold Leagues. Those that looked would have seen another level of excellence, not yet ready to be released.

This week we have opened up the Platinum Leagues which include Platinum (RP 3200 – 3500), Super Platinum (RP 3500 – 3800), and Ultra Platinum (RP 3800+). The higher the League you reach the greater your rewards are so be sure to fight your way as high as you can!

Don’t forget your Season rewards are based off your highest reached League during that season, so if you manage to break into a new League you’ll still get those rewards even if you eventually drop back down.

All-in-one Look at the Major Features in Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition!

Jan 04, 2018 // Andy Wong

Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition is launching in just a couple weeks on January 16, 2018! We’ve been revealing that there will be new modes, V-Triggers, and extra content coming with this new version, and are now compiling it all in one place for easy reading. Continue below for our overview of what you can expect in just a week and a half!

ARCADE MODE

As the mode Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition is named after, Arcade Mode expands on the classic fighting game staple to provide an experience unlike any other. You’ll choose between six different paths, each representing a main title in the series: Street Fighter, Street Fighter II, Street Fighter Alpha, Street Fighter III, Street Fighter IV, and Street Fighter V. Each path contains characters faithful to the respective title or in some cases representative of other characters – for example, Zeku represents Geki in the first Street Fighter. The barrel-breaking Bonus Stage also returns in their respective paths to give you a chance to get a higher score.

As you progress, you’ll accumulate scores in Arcade Mode, which are then uploaded to the online leaderboards where unique titles are on the line. In order to increase your score, finish your opponents quickly, perform special moves such as a Crush Counter, get a Perfect, etc. Once you reach the end, you’ll be treated to one of over 200 ending images, which come in the form of both character story images and all-new, custom illustrations. In fact, here’s a sneak peek at two of them.

We’re also streaming an entire path of Arcade Mode along with showing off Sakura and more V-Trigger IIs on January 9 at 3pm PT on the Capcom Unity Twitch channel!

TEAM BATTLE MODE

Gather your friends, form teams of characters, and get ready to partake in Team Battle Mode! Two local teams of up to five characters battle it out to see which one will be victorious. You can alter your preferences to fit your desired battle, such as whether the winning player keeps their EX Gauge, if any Vitality is recovered between matches, if the losing team’s next player will gain any V-Gauge, and much more!

There are two types of Team Battle Mode options: Elimination and Best of Series. In Elimination, teams continue fighting until all members of one team have lost. In Best of Series, each team member will match up against their corresponding opponent until one team wins the majority of the matches.

This doesn’t have to JUST be for teams though! You and a friend can choose your own teams and see who can win in a 3v3 Elimination match similar to past Capcom crossover titles!

Watch as our friends at UpUpDownDown and WWE Superstars play through Elimination!

EXTRA BATTLE MODE SCHEDULE

We recently revealed Extra Battle Mode for Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition, a mode which allows you to obtain costumes, titles, EXP, and Fight Money! In this blog, we’re listing out the Extra Battle Challenges for the first month of Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition.

THE TURBULENT WIND BECOMES A MOVIE HERO

The first Crossover Costume you can obtain is Viewtiful Joe for the equally spunky Rashid. Here are the four challenges, deadlines, and rewards you’ll run into.

We hope these charts help in planning how you’ll spend your time in Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition! We’ll continue to publish these blogs so you’ll know what is coming in the near future. In addition, we’ll keep everyone informed every week on our social channels, so make sure to follow us on Twitter and like us on Facebook to stay up to date on the Extra Battle challenges and missions! 

V-TRIGGER II

All 28 characters – 29 with Sakura included – will have two V-Trigger options to open up different ways to approach each battle. You’ll select which V-Trigger to use once both players have selected their character. In training mode, you can easily switch between V-Trigger I and II by going into the Options menu and going to Version Select.

We won’t be going into each character’s V-Trigger II in this blog, but check out the complete list of them in our previous blog here: V-Trigger II . In the meantime, here are some screenshots with a few of them in action.

Kolin (Absolute Zero) – While active, Kolin’s punch attacks and Hailstorm will be strengthened. Additionally, she has a forward dash where she will slide across the floor on a sheet of ice.

She can also press HP + HK to perform Frost Edge.

During this move, Kolin’s attacks will be given dash properties, similar to medium Vanity Step.  She can perform a high-speed Frost Edge from her forward dash, and if it hits, press HP + HK for Reverse Javelin, which will freeze the opponent and prevent them from recovering stun meter.

Rashid (Easifa) – Easifa strengthens Rashid’s kick special moves while active. Press HP + HK to perform Haboob, a wind projectile that has a different trajectory than his Whirlwind Shot.

Easifa strengthens the forward movement and hit properties of the kick special moves, increases range, and provides for other strengthening effects. It also increases the jump speed and distance of his front flip and allows Rashid to perform a wall jump after EX Eagle Spike hits, giving him more options in the neutral game and in combos.

Akuma (Shiretsu Hasshi) – Using Shiretsu Hasshi, Akuma can link together powerful attacks using the V-Timer instead of the EX gauge. Grounded HP/HK attacks and each of his special moves can be canceled into EX special moves.

There are many moves he will be able to cancel into the EX special moves, giving him the ability to deal great damage from a number of situations.

We’ll also be posting the complete list of patch notes very soon!

GALLERY

The aforementioned 200+ Arcade Mode Endings can all be viewed in the Gallery once unlocked, which can be accessed from the main menu. If you’re yearning to listen to some tunes, stage background music, character themes, and DLC background music can be listened to under the Sound option. You can also view movies like the epic Cinematic Opening we first unveiled at Capcom Cup 2017 – or you can watch it below!

We hope this summary helped you freshen up on all the major features included in Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition! Those who purchase Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition will get all Season 1 and 2 characters in the form of a code! If you pre-order the physical edition in select retailers in North America, you also get the nine bonus costumes below. For more information on this bonus, head to our previous blog here: Pre-Order Bonus .

In addition, if you purchase the Season 3 Character Pass from 1/16 at 8am PT to 1/29, you’ll also receive nine costumes: the 30thAnniversary Costumes for M. Bison, Guile, Ibuki, and Karin, along with the Nostalgia Costumes for Alex, Ibuki, Juri, Kolin, and Akuma! This promotion is only available in the Americas and Asia (Japan is not included).

Remember, current owners of Street Fighter V will get all gameplay-related content for free as part of a large update on January 16 alongside the release of Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition! As always, follow us on Twitter and like us on Faceboo k to stay up to date on all the latest news.

Introducing Team Battle Mode for Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition!

Dec 20, 2017 // Andy Wong

Hot off the presses, or in this case, the fight ring, Team Battle Mode has been revealed for Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition! Our friends at UpUpDownDown and WWE hosted a special episode to help unveil this exciting new addition to the variety of modes coming on January 16. Learn more on how Team Battle Mode works after the jump.

Team Battle Mode allows local teams of up to five players to fight it out to see which side will come out victorious. To start it up, head to the main menu, select Versus, which will take you to another screen allowing you the option to choose Team Battle. Once you select it, you’ll be prompted with a list of different options to match your desired Team Battle, whether it’s against a team of players or CPU.

  • No. of Team Members – You can have a team of up to five members. Each team must have an equal number of players.
  • Match Format – Choose between Elimination and Best of Series
    • Elimination – The winner stays on as the teams fight to the last man standing.
    • Best of Series – Each team member will match up against their corresponding opponent until one team wins the majority of the matches. If the number of battles won by each team is even, the result will be a draw. Draws can only occur in teams of two or four.
  • Vitality Recover – Choose how much vitality the winner recovers after each round. You can opt for Partial (recover green health and some gray health), Partial Green (recover actual health), or Full Recovery.
  • Retain EX Gauge – Allows whether the winner will be allowed to carry over their EX Gauge into the next round.
  • V-Gauge Advantage – In Elimination, determine whether the losing team will be given V-Gauge in the next round. Two bars will be given for a difference of two fighters, and three for a difference of three or more.
  • Change Order – The losing team can change their character order before the next fight. Selecting random will randomize the order, including who goes first.
  • Throwaway Matches – In Best of Series, choose whether to play all the battles even if the winner has already been decided.
  • Round Setting – Adjust the number of rounds required to win a game.
  • Match Time Settings – Set the time limit for a round.
  • CPU Difficulty – If playing against the CPU, determine their difficulty.

Before each match begins, there will be a quick intro to show which character and V-Trigger was selected. Though you will choose all characters on the team beforehand, you’ll only choose the V-Trigger as each match begins, allowing you to change your strategy depending on which opponent you’ll face. During the match, the HUD will show how many players are left on each team, including the order they’re in.

In between matches, the winner will recover Vitality, keep EX Gauge, or gain V-Gauge depending on which option was selected in the beginning. Under the Elimination format, the losing team will decide which of their players will go up next to fight the winner. In a CPU game, you’ll decide which character will fight you next.

Once the match ends, a battle summary will appear on screen detailing who won and lost each round, the win streak, and the win rate. Bragging rights are on the line! You can then choose to play the same battle over again, switch characters, or start from the very beginning.

It may be called Team Battle Mode, but that doesn’t mean you need more than two players – or even one, if you’re against the CPU. If you want to play all five characters in the team, go right ahead! This is especially useful if you’re learning multiple characters and want a quick way to use them all without having to return to the Character Select screen.

Team Battle Mode opens up more ways to flaunt your fighting prowess, especially if there’s more than one opponent waiting in the room. Get ready to round up your friends and call them over on January 16 when Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition launches on PlayStation 4 and PC with Team Battle Mode! Current owners of Street Fighter V will get a free update on January 16 that includes Arcade Mode, new V-Triggers, Extra Battle Mode, Team Battle Mode, and more!

——————————

Last week we hosted the first ever online hands-on play session where you could have a go at Monster Hunter: World from the comfort of your home, the PlayStation 4 PS Plus beta. Hunters all around the world tried out the game’s new mechanics, weapon tweaks, and their luck together against fearsome monsters. I spent most of that weekend on Twitch watching people play and, all I can say is… it was a total blast!

We’re going to be hosting a second Monster Hunter: World beta as we continue to prepare for next month’s launch. This time the beta will be open to all PS4 players (no PlayStation Plus subscription required) and will be live from December 22 nd at 9am PST until December 26 th at 8:59am PST. You’ll be able to preload it beginning Monday, December 18 th , but if you still have the beta on your system from last weekend, keep it on your PS4, it’ll work just fine. =)

——————————

The Monster Hunter: World beta brought joy to many hunters out there that were dying to get their hands on the game. Hunters in their collaborative giving spirit returned that joy right back to the world with amazing videos and GIF creations. Below is a full hunt, featuring Arekkz , TwoSixNine , Welcome to Paradise , and my European counterpart Josh “Socks” , where they take down all three of the monsters in the Ancient Forest in under 20 minutes! Truly impressive example of teamwork and an impeccable performance.

And just in time for the holidays, @bleukitsune adds one finishing touch to their Christmas tree:

——————————

STICKY NOTE: Did you make something cool? Send us a note or drop a comment below; we would love to feature your work here! Same goes for any awesome stuff you may see in the wild; we always welcome more fantastic fan work. =)

This will actually be our last Capcom Recap of the year 2017 because, as you may have guessed by reading the word “holiday” about a number of times throughout this blog entry, we’re going to be offline for some of the holidays for some much-needed recovery time from this busy December.

So happy holidays to all of you and we’ll see you in 2018!

SFV: Arcade Edition “Extra Battle” Mode Details and Changes in Earning Fight Money

Dec 15, 2017 // Andy Wong

Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition is just around the corner and will feature a great deal of exciting content to bring in the New Year. Extra Battle will be a free addition coming on January 16 for Current Street Fighter V players and will be included in Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition. This new mode will amp up how we do weekly challenges and will award special costumes we know you’ll be craving. Learn how Extra Battle will work and get a sneak peek of said costumes after the jump!

HOW DOES EXTRA BATTLE WORK?

Every month, there will be at least one Crossover Costume up for grabs, which can only be obtained by playing Extra Battle mode with Fight Money. Here’s the flow of how to go about getting these exclusive costumes:

  • Each Crossover Costume requires you to complete four challenges that take place over the span of a month – one challenge per week.
  • Each time you attempt one of these challenges, you must spend 2,500 Fight Money, In other words, if you successfully complete each of the weekly challenges in one go, you can get that Extra Battle Costume for 10,000 FM!
  • Once you complete all four challenges, the Crossover Costume for that month is yours!
  • These challenges are time exclusive, so make sure to log in each week to complete them, especially if you have your eyes on that month’s Crossover Costume.

When we say these costumes are worth your time, we mean it. Take a look at some of your favorite fighters dressing up as characters from other favorite Capcom franchises!

Rashid’s acrobatic move set makes him the perfect candidate to don the Viewtiful Joe costume. This will be the first Crossover Costume you can attempt to obtain!

With the shared tragedy of having their parents killed by the hands of evil madmen, Chun-Li dresses up as the cheerful gymnast June from the Star Gladiator series.

Blond hair, glasses, and mission-driven, Nash embodies the legendary Captain Commando in this Crossover Costume.

LOOK OUT FOR SHADALOO SOLDIER CHALLENGES


Extra Battle will also offer a way to obtain Fight Money so you have enough to attempt each week’s challenges. Every few weeks, a Golden Shadaloo soldier will appear separately from the weekly Crossover Costume challenges, giving you an opportunity to earn a decent amount of Fight Money throughout 2018! Bust out your skills against these goons and replenish your Fight Money stash.

CHANGE IN WAYS TO EARN FIGHT MONEY

Beginning January 16, modes that offered one-time finite batches of Fight Money will no longer do so. This includes Character Stories, the General Story (A Shadow Falls), Trials, Survival, and Demonstrations – if you haven’t completed these modes yet, there’s still a few weeks left to do so before the changes occur in January!

If you’re a new player worried about getting enough Fight Money to get the Crossover Costumes, you still gain experience points from all modes except for the General Story. You receive Fight Money each time a character gains a level, and playing through each Character Story is a great way to quickly gain experience points for each character. Do this for all 28 characters and you’ll be the proud owner of at least 200,000 Fight Money. Combine this amount with Fight Money earned through online battles and recurring Missions and you’ll have plenty to use for Extra Battle Mode, additional characters and costumes!

For anyone worried about your current balance of Fight Money and League Points, they will remain intact and will not be affected by these changes.

Also beginning on January 16, when you purchase a new character with real money or via the Character Pass, you will receive that character’s Battle Costume and additional colors 3-10 for their Standard and Battle Costumes. If you earn Fight Money, you can also obtain characters’ Story Costumes.

COSTUME PREVIEW

Starting with Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition, 3D previews of costumes will be displayed every time you select a costume from the shop. You can also use this to take a look at the various color options for that costume.

In addition, there will be a costume sort feature for each character implemented into the store. You can now check and see what costumes are available for your favorite characters in one go.

Keep an eye on our Twitter and Facebook accounts for reminders on the golden Shadaloo soldiers and each month’s Crossover Costume once Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition launches on January 16, 2018! We’ll be revealing more details on other modes and costumes very soon, so stay tuned!

The holiday season is upon us, and what better gift to your love ones (that includes you, btw!) than an awe-inspiring adventure filled with charm and wonder? And did I mention you get to play as Amaterasu in the body of the legendary white wolf Shiranui (basically a big puppy)?

Alright, tell you me you don’t want to just stop everything and pet a dog who saved the world after watching that trailer. Or better yet… step in the paws of said dog and reenact that heroic feat. I can’t promise the dog petting, but you’ll definitely get to relive Amaterasu’s divine deeds of restoring life to the world in Okami HD !

This critically acclaimed adventure is now available on Steam (PC) , PlayStation 4 and Xbox One , with 4K support on PS4 Pro, Xbox One X and supported PC hardware. If you get the Steam version, you’ll also get Amaterasu as a courier in Valve’s Dota 2 for free (for a limited time) along with some Steam wallpapers to pretty up your profile.
