PREVIEWS
Have you ever looked at a wacky-wavy-inflatable-arm-
flailing-tube-man and thought ‘hey, I’d love to be that
guy?’
ARMS
(kinda) gives you the chance. You can
choose from a number of different, well-armed fighters
– each with individually customisable boxing Arms – to
take to the ring and non-fatally knock out your opponent;
it is a Nintendo game, after all. The blood and gore of
titles like Mortal Kombat and Street Fighter have been replaced with
Mario-friendly combat that the whole family will enjoy – especially
spectators. Get your gloves on and get ready to get physical, ‘cause
ARMS
is quite the handful.

Get ready to get n-sane in the membrane with the
long-awaited return of Crash Bandicoot! You asked, and
the people have delivered – the orange marsupial is
returning to our PlayStations at the end of this month,
with shiny new versions of
Crash Bandicoot, Crash
Bandicoot 2: Cortex Strikes Back,
and
Crash Bandicoot
3: Warped
all on the way. You’ll be able to relive all your
favourite levels and fights from a younger PlayStation era – wumpa

The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind
was released 15 years
ago. Heralded as one of the best entries into the Elder
Scrolls series, many were wondering if we would get
a remastered release for its anniversary. Instead, what
we’re getting is over 30 hours of new content for
Elder Scrolls Online
. We’ll have the chance to return
to Vvardenfell – and the rest of the ESO universe – in
a new add-on expansion for Zenimax’s MMORPG.
They’re also adding a new player class – the Warden – into the mix,
so even if you aren’t interested in the wonders of Vvardenfell’s island,
there’ll be plenty of new stuff to enjoy.

Hold on to your butts – and every other limb for that
matter – as world renowned fighting sim Tekken
returns this month, bigger and more badass than
ever.
Tekken 7
focuses on the Mishima family saga,
and is the first to make use of Unreal Engine. You
can look forward to answers surrounding the feud
between Heihachi Mishima, Kazuya Mishima, and Jin
Kazama, and don’t forget, too, to keep an eye out for
a special appearance from Street Fighter’s Akuma. It’s all bite and not
much bark. Get ready to fight for your right to, uh, fight.
