Kage is Street Fighter V’s Newest Challenger
Just in time for the holidays, Capcom unveils Kage as the latest fighter to join the battle in Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition. While this new world warrior might look like Evil Ryu at first glance, he’s actually a completely different incarnation of evil. Over the course of Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition‘s story, Ryu learned to calm his emotions, spelling an end to his evil counterpart. That energy that used to overtake the series star has instead taken physical form as Kage, and he’s out for revenge. Kage’s main focus in Street Fighter lore is taking out the warriors that Ryu clashed with most often. That means clashes with Sagat and Akuma among others, both of which you can see in the character introduction Capcom posted to YouTube. You can also see Kage perform all his techniques to his former vessel, as Ryu takes some bloody hits with a well-timed Critical Art and several other devastating attacks.

Mega Man Legacy Collection Sales Reach A Million In First-Ever Milestone
Capcom’s Mega Man Legacy Collection sales have reached a million for the first time ever in the history of the franchise, a big milestone especially for such a long-running franchise that’s had so many video games come out for it.

Monster Hunter: World is a perfect introduction to difficult games
Capcom had a Rathalos-sized goal with Monster Hunter: World: Use its launch on consoles to bring the rest of the world into the seemingly impenetrable, yet dearly beloved franchise. It needed to streamline the series’ systems enough so newbies could not only understand the thrill of battling the diverse army of its bestiary, but also enjoy all the steps required to actually reach its climactic battles.
