Invincible VS devs would like to have guest characters like Spider-Man and Sub Zero: ‘If we have that opportunity, we will definitely take it’

Invincible VS, a superhero tag battler based on Robert Kirkman's Image comic series, is exploring the possibility of character crossovers, with game director Dave Hall and lead combat designer Bau Bautista expressing enthusiasm for such ideas. They noted that Spider-Man has appeared in Invincible comics, making crossovers feel like a natural evolution. Hall and Bautista also expressed interest in including characters from the Mortal Kombat franchise, specifically Sub-Zero and Scorpion. Currently, the game focuses on characters from the Image comic universe, with Immortal and Universa set to join on June 30, coinciding with the launch of its first season.

Grand Theft Auto 6 ‘VIP early access’ scam sites are already popping up, Malwarebytes warns

The scams target younger audiences, using persuasive language to encourage impulsive decisions. Consumers are advised to be cautious, as there is currently no legitimate early access available.

On the launch day, technical issues caused a delay of "an hour or two" before the game was released on Steam after a countdown. The game is currently available at a 21% discount for two weeks.

Steam finally found a way to recommend new games that doesn’t feel like I’m getting KO’d by a fire hose

Steam has introduced a "personal calendar" feature that highlights upcoming game releases for the next five days based on individual wishlists and preferred game tags. The calendar shows games released in the past month and previews up to six games per day for the next two months. Users can filter by specific game tags and hide games already on their wishlist. Notable upcoming releases include "Beast of Reincarnation" on August 3, "Big Walk" on August 4, and "Fields of Mistria" on August 5. The feature aims to enhance game discovery without overwhelming users, allowing them to find smaller indie games like "Cat Isle." Feedback indicates that the calendar effectively showcases a variety of titles tailored to user preferences.
