Super Smash Brothers

The latest edition of the Nintendo Direct was held in early September, and fans of the gaming console manufacturer are eager to get a glimpse of all that it has to offer in the days to come. There have been quite a lot of title reveals, as well as announcements for the company’s future plans. Some of the key franchises from yesteryears are also making a comeback, and there are also going to be some exciting new titles for gamers. Let’s have a look at everything that Nintendo revealed at this month’s Direct.

Monster Hunter Rise DLC

Nintendo has announced that there will lots of downloadable content for its hit game, Monster Hunter Rise, coming out in the summer of 2022. Titled Monster Hunter Rise Sunbreak, this version of the game will introduce players to new hunting scenarios, actions, storylines, locations, and many new nemeses that players will go up against.

Disco Elysium – The Final Cut

Another title that is about to make its way to Nintendo is Disco

SNK fans rejoice, fan favorite and gaming icon Terry Bogard has been added to the lineup of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate for the Nintendo Switch.

Terry is the latest addition to the fighting game, having been announced on September 4th during a Nintendo Direct. He is now the fourth downloadable character that can be obtained using the DLC Fighters Pass, and is labeled as the 74th fighter in the game.

Terry has a long history of appearing in fighting games, having made his debut in the 1991 game Fatal Fury: King of Fighters. Since then, he’s made appearances in countless Fatal Fury and King of Fighters installments. He’s appeared in Neo Geo, arcade, Game Boy, PlayStation, and Xbox consoles, along the way.

Known for his long hair and red trucker cap, Terry Bogard is almost a mascot of sorts for SNK, as he appears on a slew of different merchandise associated with the Japanese gaming giant.

Developers for Smash implemented Terry’s fighting style from the 1990’s games,

EVO 2017 has now slowly shifted to a halt, and the winners for both Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and Super Bros. Melee have now been revealed.

If you don't want spoilers, you can check out recaps on the EVO 2017 Twitch channel before reading our EVO 2017 finals overview below.

We'll first start with the least surprising turnout of the event. In the Super Bros. Melee tournament at EVO 2017, Armada and Mang0 ended up facing up against each other in the grand finale.

Armada managed to pull out an almost clean 3-1 victory over Mang0 to take the grand final win after coming from the winner's bracket. This is now the third year in a row that Armada has made it to the EVO 2017 grand finals.

In 2016, Armada came second after losing in the grand finals. Armada also took the 2015 EVO Smash Bros. Melee win.

The results for the EVO 2017 Smash Bros. for Wii U tournament were a little more interesting.

As expected, ZeRo made his way to the grand finals after staying

After recent events, ZeRo has built a new tier list for Super Smash Bros 4. The list includes each of the SSMB4 characters, besides the Miis, and has listed each one based on their performance in competitive events.

Whether you play competitively or simply want to know which characters to pick to give yourself a better chance at beating your friend when they come round to play, this new tier list is worth taking a look at.

Before we share the entire Smash Bros 4 tier list, let's first take a look at the top 10 picks from ZeRo. The top ten characters in ZeRo's tier list have been showcased below:

• 10: Mario
• 9: MarchCina
• 8: Fox
• 7: Sonic
• 6: ZSS
• 5: Diddy Kong
• 4: Sheik
• 3: Rosalina
• 2: Cloud
• 1: Bayonetta

Bayonetta was an interesting choice for number 1, especially considering that not a single Bayonetta player has won a major tournament with that character.

As ZeRo is

It's going to be a big year for the Super Smash Bros. competitive community. Dreamhack has 6 events planned for this year alone.

If you're a viewer or player of any of the Super Smash Bros. games then you've got a lot to be excited about this year. Dreamhack has just confirmed that a total of 6 events will feature Super Smash Bros. tournaments this year. 4 of these events will be in North America and the other 2 will be on an international level.

The first Dreamhack event will be Dreamhack Austin. It will take place from April 28 to April 30 and will feature both Melee and Smash 4. The prize pool will be $10,000 for each game.

The next event will be Dreamhack Summer, featuring just Smash Bros Melee and will take place from June 17 to June 19.

Following this will be Dreamhack Atlanta from July 21 to July 23, Dreamhack Montreal on September 8 to September 10, and Dreamhack Denver from October 20 to October 22. All three of these events will feature both Melee and

The game lineup for the next major fighting game event has been revealed.

CEO 2017 has now published information about what games they will be hosting tournaments for, along with other important details on event dates and attendance.

There's no doubt that CEO is one of the tournaments the fighting game community loves the most, so if you're interested in some epic matches to tune into, or are interested in attending the event yourself, pay close attention to the information provided below.

It's now been confirmed that CEO 2017 will have a total of 11 different fighting games. First things first, both Smash Bros Melee and Smash Bros Wii U will be making an appearance. Street Fighter V and Tekken 7 will of course be making a show. Unfortunately Mortal Kombat XL will not be on the agenda for CEO 2017, but there are a number of other games that will take it's place.

This includes both Injustice 2 and Killer Instinct as well as the following: The King of Fighters

BeyondTheSummit has released the key dates and details for the upcoming Smash Summit 4.

It has now been confirmed that the event will take place from March 2 and will end on March 5. To begin with, the prize pool is sitting at $15,000, but it will grow depending on how many fans attend the events.

Even with a $15,000 base prize pool, this will be an important event to take the win, and it could perhaps be the event that could be open to absolutely anybody.

Whilst both Hungrybox and Armada are still performing incredibly, Hungrybox's recent broken finger has put some doubt on his upcoming performance. Armada is still looking like a strong contender, but his most recent Smash Summit win was at Smash Summit 3 doubles, at which point he had help from the formidable Mew2King. Mang0 has also been in great form this year, even if he hasn't managed to hit as many first place wins as Hungrybox and Armada.

In total, there will be sixteen players to attend the Smash Summit

After going full-time Smash pro, the worst thing that could happen to a Smash player would be to have their finger or hand broken.

Unfortunately for Hungrybox, exactly that has happened. During a game of Dodgeball, Hungrybox ended up breaking his index finger, which might just be one of the most important fingers for playing games on a controller.

The injury was a fracture in the top knuckle of Hungrybox's index finger. With Genesis 4 just around the corner, it was first rumored that Hungrybox would not attend the event at all.

However, Hungrybox is going to soldier on - he will remap his controller so that use of his index finger is kept to an absolute minimum. As a result of this, Hungrybox may not be at top form, but we still feel he has a good chance at ranking high at Genesis 4.

It's frustrating to see such a thing happen, but we can't wait to see how Hungrybox performs despite his injury. Fortunately, the injury should heal within a few weeks, so he won't

After an incredible performance from ZeRo this year, it was a surprise to see that a player managed to outperform him in an event sporting ZeRo's name.

Funnily enough, this wasn't the first time ZeRo has lost at his own event. In fact, every event in the past that has included ZeRo in the title has seen ZeRo fail at getting a win.

This particular event was 2GGT ZeRo Saga, and it saw some of the best Smash players across the globe fight it out for a $10,000 prize. Whilst it was surprising to ZeRo not take the win, it was perhaps even more surprising to see the actual winner.

MKLeo managed to take the grand prize after fighting his way through, Larry Lur, VoiD and plenty of other players. In fact, Leo originally found himself in the loser's bracket earlier in the tournament. It wasn't until MKLeo beat ZeRo in the loser's finals that he saw himself in the grand finals against Larry Lur.

MKLeo took the first set of matches in an impressive fashion with a 3-1 score

ZeRo has been at the top of his game for far too long, and his top form has given him another win at the Smash 4 event at UGC Open.

Whilst ZeRo took the win, he didn't get away with the prize as easily as he had done earlier in the year. This is the fifth win ZeRo has had in a row now, but the close 3-2 victory at UGC almost threw ZeRo's chances of beating his 52 win streak down the drain.

If you've been following the Smash Open scene for a while now, 2016 has perhaps been the best chance competitors have had at beating ZeRo. This is especially true in Abadango's case, who fought against ZeRo in the UGC Open Smash 4 grand final.

Earlier in the tournament, ZeRo took a clean 3-0 win against Abadango, which pushed him straight into the loser's bracket. Abadango managed to closely fight his way back into the grand finals though, and the 3-2 defeat was the closest any player had come to taking a game win from ZeRo at the UGC Open.

Previously ZeRo managed to beat Mr.
