It looks like Apex Legends might be off to a great start. Respawn’s free to play shooter managed to notch a million unique downloads within eight hours of its launch, and video streaming sites are filed with nothing but channels broadcasting the hottest new chicken dinner on the block. Currently available on PC, Xbox One and PS4, here’s the quick breakdown on the game and its current contents.

For many of you, Wargroove scratches an itch that you’re more than familiar with. A spiritual successor to Advance Wars, Wargroove is a very particular stretch of strategy that incorporates tried and trusted tactical elements with a few simpler ideas. Simple doesn’t mean easy of course, and Wargroove’s cute facade actually hides a deceptively complex game beneath the surface. So if you’re new to the formula or even in need of a refresher course, then we’ve got you covered!

The greatest villain in all of anime history is finally stepping up to unleash the power of ZA WARUDO in Jump Force. Oh, and Jotaro Kujo will be there as well.
