EVO is making an exciting return in 2017, and we've now received details about when and where the event will take place.
EVO is one of the biggest fighting game tournaments in the world. It supports events for some of the most popular current fighting games, as well as some older titles. While the full game lineup is yet to be announced, the trailer has shown footage for Guilty Gear Xrd - Revelator, Street Fighter V, Super Smash Bros. Melee, Tekken 7 and Mortal Kombat X.
We wouldn't be surprised if other titles make their way to EVO 2017, including Smash Bros Wii U.
In 2016, EVO took place in Las Vegas for the first two days, whilst the final day of the event took place in Mandalay Bay's arena. It was a bit difficult for all fans to attend the entire EVO event, so this year the organizers have put the effort in to accommodate everybody for the 2017 event.
In 2017, the EVO event will take place on July 14 and will end with the final matches happening on July 16.

It looks like we may be getting Injustice: Gods Among Us 2 after all. Recently, a poster which seems to be leaked material for the upcoming sequel to Injustice was posted online. Whether or not the artwork is real or not is hard to confirm at this point but as you can see above, the quality of this artwork is exceptional.
It seems crazy to think an individual would go out of their way to create a poster of this quality just to fake a leak like this. But if you're not entirely convinced, we have some information to add further legitimacy to the image.
This poster hasn't just appeared from one source - multiple sources from various GameStop retail stores across the US have shared this online. Some sources have gotten in touch with online gaming news sites including Kotaku, Polygon and Game Informer. Plenty of the websites seem to cite different sources so it seems very likely that this poster really is sitting in the back of hundreds of GameStop stores across America.

Season 3 for the Mortal Kombat X Pro League has now been announced and it will feature 16 players from across the world. This time round, players from Latin America will get their first chance to qualify for the top 16 spots, whilst other regions will include CIS, Europe and North America.
In the previous two seasons, SonicFox managed to take the trophies but this time there is even more on the line and more chances for up and coming talent to get in on the action. After the qualifiers, the 16 man tournament will be held in Burbank, California and players will be fighting for a $200,000 first place prize, twice that of the previous season. Altogether, $500,000 has been put on the line in season 3 and the other $300,000 will be awarded to runner up players.
Absolutely anybody can sign up for the Challenger Cup and by doing so they'll be able to get the chance to fight their way into the qualifiers. ESL has also confirmed that a later season will be coming for Mortal Kombat

It's a brand new month and that means a brand new set of free games for all PS Plus subscribers. The PS Plus games will be available for all players for the entirety of their PS Plus subscription.
The first title on the list of free games this month is GRID Autosport for the PlayStation 3. GRID is a simulation style racing game and offers a lengthy campaign mode and great racing physics. Despite being on PlayStation 3, the visuals in GRID Autosport are pretty spectacular too. Unfortunately a PS4 port is not available.
The second PlayStation 3 title that is available for free in February is Persona 4 Arena Ultimax. Persona is a fighter franchise and number four offers decent gameplay, although the story is a little lacking.
Helldivers: Democracy Strikes Back is also available for the PlayStation 3 but this title can be picked up for the PlayStation 4 and the PS Vita too. Nom Nom Galaxy is the only PS4 exclusive title in February, whilst PS Vita owners will be able to

A brand new season pass has been announced for Mortal Kombat X and it will be available throughout 2016. The new season pass has been dubbed the Kombat Pack 2, and as the name suggests, it will add new characters to the current character roster, just like the previous Kombat Pack DLC.
Just like the previous Kombat Pack DLC, there will be two characters from previous Mortal Kombat games and two characters from outside of the Mortal Kombat universe. The first announced character will be the Xenomorph from Aliens. We've already got the Predator so I can't wait to see these two battling it out in Mortal Kombat X next year. The second guest character in the Kombat Pack 2 DLC will be Leatherface from Texas Chainsaw Massacre, and yes, he does have a chainsaw.
The first of the returning Mortal Kombat characters will be Bo Rai Cho who uses a fairly plain and simple drunken fist master fighting style. The final character is a little more interesting. The new character isn't returning,

After months of teasing and game trailers, the release date for Street Fighter 5 has finally been set. Street Fighter 5 has been anticipated by fans for a very long time now so it's great to see the date finally being revealed.
So when will Street Fighter 5 be released? The game will come on February 16, 2016 for North America and Europe. Other regions have not had their release dates revealed, but if you're in a region that usually gets releases near the time of North America and Europe, then you can expect to see Street Fighter 5 around February 16 next year.
On top of the February 16 release date unveiling, some DLC information was released. It was mentioned that 6 DLC characters would be released in the following 12 months after the launch of Street Fighter 5. It was also revealed that Dhalsim will be in Street Fighter 5 - it's expected that he'll be a playable character at launch.
As for the rest of the fighters available at launch, we're not quite sure about this.

A brand new patch has been released for Mortal Kombat X and it brings a number of different tweaks to a variety of different characters in the game. The latest patch is already available on the PlayStation 4 but it's not quite ready for either the Xbox One or the PC.
Most of the changes are quite small, but you may notice small tweaks here and there whilst playing. Nearly all of the changes fall into one of two categories - bug fixes or game balancing.
Below, we have a list of some of the more important character tweaks made.
+ D'Vorah (Venomous) - Adjusted the Poison Stack algorithm to prevent the top end from getting so high
+ Ermac (Spectral) - Fixed a bug in which he could get stuck in flight controls
+ Goro - Fixed a bug which was preventing Krush from having its landing location chosen
+ Goro - Slightly increased the input window to meterburn PunchWalk on hit
+ Jacqui (Full Auto) - Decreased the block advantage on Up Rocket by 5 and

Mortal Kombat X will soon be getting another DLC character added to it's roster and this time round the character will be a special guest star.
If you've been paying attention to the DLC plans for Mortal Kombat X, you may already know that the next planned DLC character for the game will be Predator. This character has been planned to release at some point next month, and like previous DLC characters, is available for free to any players that have purchased the $30 Kombat pack.
Players can also purchase characters separately, or alternatively they can try out the DLC characters for free whenever their corresponding player tower is rotated into the game.
Unfortunately we don't know too much about Predator just yet. A reveal trailer has not yet been released so we have no details about Predator's move set. What we do know is that Ed Boon has revealed one single promotional image of Predator fighting Jax. If you've got a keen eye you may have noticed that the promotional

For the most part Mortal Kombat X has been released without too many problems but it seems nowadays you can't have a game release without some kind of bugs or issues. Fortunately, NetherRealm Studios has been working round the clock to ensure everything is as smooth as possible.
Recently, the 1.02 patch was applied to Mortal Kombat for the PC, Xbox One and PS4 and it brings a number of changes and bug fixes to the game.
Perhaps the biggest noticeable changes to Mortal Kombat X in 1.02 are some tweaks to general gameplay and certain character’s move sets. Below the major game changes have been listed.
General - Throws (regular or command grabs) will no longer sometimes connect on a grounded reacting opponent off a counter hit
Shinnok (Impostor) - He can now control the location of a stolen Goro Stomp.
Subzero (Grandmaster) - Combos on a grounded opponent frozen by the Ice Klone will now scale properly.
Takeda (Ronin) - Added a new move "Quick Kall"
