Kame House is the latest point of interest in the new Fortnite x Dragon Ball event (opens in new tab) , which runs until September 17. As part of the new Power Unleashed challenges, you'll need to visit a familiar training location . This training location is, of course, Kame House, which doubles as a hiding spot from opponents if the area is quiet. It's relatively easy to find and once you're there, you'll meet a familiar face who'll have some special abilities on sale that could make or break a match. Where to find Kame House It's up to you whether you want to set a waypoint for Kame House before you begin a match or forge a path there if the closing circle allows it. Kame House can be found in the east of the battle royale map on its own little island. It's a hotspot for players right now, so be careful and try to avoid being blasted by a Kamehameha (opens in new tab) . Once you arrive at Kame House you'll find Bulma walking around.

Microsoft inclusive lead reveals there’s a ‘bit of a plateau’ in accessibility tech
Accessibility Week This feature is part of PC Gamer's Accessibility Week (opens in new tab) , running from August 16, where we're exploring accessible games, hardware, mods and more. I've been speaking to Bryce Johnson, Inclusive Lead at Microsoft Devices and co-inventor of the Xbox Adaptive Controller (XAC), about the process behind and reception of the accessible gaming device. And although he's happy about where the project ended up and where the accessibility industry is going as a whole, he's a little concerned about where things might go from here. The XAC is Microsoft's answer to making games more accessible for players with disabilities. That description makes it sound so simple, but making an accessible controller is definitely not straightforward, even with backing from a company whose net worth is about $1 trillion. Johnson explains that it was first important to recognise the limitations of current controller configurations. Without full fluid range of … [Read more...] about Microsoft inclusive lead reveals there’s a ‘bit of a plateau’ in accessibility tech
How She-Hulk Fits An Ultra-Serious Daredevil Into Its Comedic World
When the She-Hulk: Attorney at Law trailer debuted at San Diego Comic-Con, fans got quite the shock with the reveal that Charlie Cox is reprising his role as Matt Murdock/Daredevil in the series. This is incredibly exciting--especially when you consider the upcoming standalone series for the character on Disney+. However, Cox's portrayal of Daredevil so far has been decidedly serious and often dark. She-Hulk: Attorney at Law , on the other hand, is a half-hour sitcom about a lawyer who just happens to turn into a big, green rage monster. How, exactly, do those two pieces fit together? According to showrunner Jessica Gao, it wasn't as hard as you might think. "It's so fun to take these characters that you've only seen in these kinds of very serious dramatic roles and situations and [bring] them into our show where they get to kind of take a break from all that because in our show the universe isn't going to end," she told GameSpot. "It's slice of life. It's daily life. It's like a … [Read more...] about How She-Hulk Fits An Ultra-Serious Daredevil Into Its Comedic World
She-Hulk Bosses And Star Comment On Overworked VFX Artists Working With Marvel
Over the past few months, there's been a discussion online about VFX artists being displeased when working for Marvel Entertainment. According to one Reddit thread , some artists are done working with Marvel, and they've been harboring those feelings for quite some time. However, the cast and crew of the upcoming She-Hulk: Attorney At Law Disney+ series stand in solidarity with these talented artists. During the TCA summer press tour She-Hulk panel, the showrunner discussed what's happening with VFX artists Marvel has hired to work on its movies and TV shows. "I feel incredibly deferential to how talented these artists are and how quickly they have to work," said EP and showrunner Jessica Gao. "Obviously, like much quicker than probably [the amount of time] given to them, in terms of like churning these things out. "I know that there's a lot of eyes on the CG and a lot of critique or whatever, but I do think that we have to be super conscious of, like you're saying, how the … [Read more...] about She-Hulk Bosses And Star Comment On Overworked VFX Artists Working With Marvel
Dungeon Munchies is an RPG platformer where you’re a zombie, and worse, an unpaid intern
Sometimes, a whole game sprouts from a tiny seed of an idea. In the case of Dungeon Munchies, it's a simple, jokey premise: you're an unpaid zombie intern. A necromancer-chef named Simmer raises you as part of her plan to unleash a new generation of magical cuisine on the world. Why? How? You're not being paid enough to ask those questions, because you're not being paid at all. So off you go, searching the dungeon for ingredients. Don't worry about dying: endless, inescapable revival is part of your employee benefits package. This concept dovetails neatly into a mechanical foundation. You explore an (almost completely linear) side-scrolling world, marching along, avoiding traps and fighting monsters. Then you harvest ingredients from those monsters and cook magical dishes that visibly mutate your body, Binding of Isaac-style. That would be a fine little game by itself—maybe some sort of roguelite. But that's not what we've got here. During the three years Dungeon Munchies spent … [Read more...] about Dungeon Munchies is an RPG platformer where you’re a zombie, and worse, an unpaid intern
Dead Island 2 is alive and coming in February
Audio player loading… Nine years after its initial reveal, Dead Island 2 will release on February 3, according to a listing for the PS4 version on Amazon. That's naturally subject to change and could just be placeholder—this being Dead Island 2, I wouldn't be surprised—but it does line up with recent hints by Embracer Group's CEO that the open world zombie game will be released in the company's 2023 fiscal year. The Amazon listing (opens in new tab) reiterates some of the points we've known about the game during its long stint in development hell. It's set in a version of Los Angeles "stained with horror", which means you'll get to bludgeon zombies in "the verdant suburbia of Beverly Hills" and "the quirky promenade of Venice Beach". Combat is "visceral and gory", naturally, and there will be "dozens" of different kinds of zombie to eviscerate, all with an LA theme, of course. It's been confirmed since 2014 that Dead Island 2 will have at least four playable … [Read more...] about Dead Island 2 is alive and coming in February
Galadriel Actress Morfydd Clark Passed Out When She Learned Her Role In The Rings Of Power
Morfydd Clark, who plays Galadriel in Amazon's upcoming The Rings of Power series, revealed she literally passed out when she found out she was cast in the Lord of the Rings show. Clark told Variety that she was informed of her casting as Galadriel during a screening and Q&A for her 2019 The Personal History of David Copperfield movie. "I suddenly realized what a big deal it was for me, and I passed out during the Q&A. I was caught by a lovely security guard," Clark said. "I knew I was auditioning for an elf but I didn't know which one," Clark said. "So me and my sister went mad trying to figure it out. I never dreamed it would be Galadriel." Galadriel was played by Oscar winning actress Cate Blanchett in Peter Jackson's Lord of the Rings film series. Clark said she hasn't reached out to Blanchett as of yet, but she praised her performance. "Her performance was such a big part of my life. Those films have gotten me through exams, troubles, teenagehood. She was … [Read more...] about Galadriel Actress Morfydd Clark Passed Out When She Learned Her Role In The Rings Of Power
Nintendo Won’t Raise Switch Prices, Despite Growing Costs
Nintendo president Shuntaro Furukawa has said Nintendo will not raise the price of the Nintendo Switch. In any other timeline, that wouldn't be surprising at all. Console prices tend to come down over time--not increase--but due to supply chain issues and other factors, manufacturing costs are actually going up these days for Nintendo. Nintendo will not pass these increased costs along to the consumer and charge more, however. Speaking to Nikkei (via NME ), Furukawa said Nintendo wants to avoid "pricing people out," and will not raise the selling price of the Switch. Furukawa said raising the MSRP of the Switch is not something Nintendo is considering "at this point." Whether or not that changes in the future remains to be seen. "Our competition is the variety of entertainment in the world, and we always think about pricing in terms of the value of the fun we offer," Furukawa said. The executive went on to say that the Switch OLED model will remain "less profitable" than … [Read more...] about Nintendo Won’t Raise Switch Prices, Despite Growing Costs
