The Among Us free trial event runs from July 21–27 on Nintendo Switch Usually, that realization happens when I’m in the mood to play some random Super Nintendo game and I browse through the wacky list of featured fluff. This paid service hasSuper MetroidandSpanky’s Quest— but noEarthBound? Sure, whatever, Nintendo. You don’tneedto woo me. I’m probably only going to play for a few minutes, anyway. The other “Oh yeah, I’m paying for this” reminder pops up whenever Nintendo hosts one of its week-long game trials....

On sale today Nearly a year ago now (time flies) I saw a re-release of the originalBladein theaters, and it still holds up. Wesley Snipes just embodies the character (a little too method in later years!), and it quietly managed to make superhero movies cool way before the original 2000X-Menbroke the dam. The daywalker is about to get even more relevant too, as he’s been recently confirmed for the MCU....

We wish you well It’s the end of an era. Composer Go Shiina has decided to leave Bandai Namco after 20 years working there to pursue other projects. Shiina has worked on several major series for Bandai Namco over the years, includingTekken 5,theGod Eaterseries, and much more. His music has always been something special, and he’ll be missed in future Bandai Namco projects such asCode Vein. Shiina left on good terms, saying in a tweet that Bandai Namco was “good company” and that his 20 years spent there were “very good....

‘Prototyping’ Valorant, Riot Games’ new shooter, is out: but only on PC. While Riot’s history implies that they’re only going to be focusing on PC, their recent actions tell a different story. The company is working on embracing multiple platforms as of late, perhaps best shown through their commitment toLeague of Legends: Wild Rift, which is coming to mobile devices and consoles (TeamFight Tacticsis also found on mobile). Speaking of consoles though,Valorantmay make its way there eventually: but not anytime soon....

The missing piece… The Robot Masters to surpass Metal Gear Did you know that in the classicMega Manseries, every entry except the first,9, and10had boss design contests that ended up shaping the Robot Masters that were used in each game? It’s true! And so, in honor of the recent releases ofMega Man Legacy CollectionandMega Man Legacy Collection 2, I figured it would be interesting to ask the Destructoid Community to try this exercise for this special edition of Destructoid Draws....

This year’s Evolution Champion Series is well underway, and I’m sure you’ve settled on which tournaments you want to keep tabs on. One of the ones I’ll be watching closely isSuper Smash Bros. for Wii Ubecause it’s got much more of a variety in character selection than competitiveMelee.And this year, the finals are just a bit more awesome....

The originalDOOMis 30 years old now. That means it has been a little over thirty years sinceNintendo turned down Id’soffer to port their games to the PC and began a chain reaction that would result in Carmack, Romero, and co. creating the FPS genre. Thanks, Nintendo! I should also thank John Romero since the co-creator and level designer of the originalDOOMhas just releasedSIGIL II, an all-new unofficialDOOMcampaign completely free of charge....

LEGO Fortnite Odysseyhas some great fights and some not-so-memorable, but if you come across the Storm King, he will certainly test your abilities. Being the final boss, he presents an incredibly difficult challenge, which is impossible to do alone. In fact, I would recommend a proper team of around eight people who are all well-equipped and maxed out in terms of weapons and armor. If you do that, you might have to chance to fight and live to tell the tale....
