Nintendo has launched its new online Mii creation tool, enabling anyone with a My Nintendo account to fashion their own avatar using nothing but an ordinary web browser.
The Mii creation feature was originally announced at the start of May, in a message sent out to all users of Nintendo's social-focussed Miitomo app - just prior to its closure. "With the end of Miitomo service," Nintendo explained, "it will no longer be possible to create or edit Mii characters using Miitomo, but we are planning to add a feature in late May 2018 which will enable you to create and edit Mii characters for your Nintendo account via your web browser of choice.

Final Fantasy 15 has now sold more than 10m copies worldwide since its launch back in November 2016. The new sales milestone was announced today via the official Final Fantasy 15 Twitter account. While a sizable number, it's interesting to compare it to the 11.8m copies sold by the Square Enix-published Rise of the Tomb Raider, launched back in 2015, or the 14.5m copies sold by the 2013 Tomb Raider reboot - especially in light of Square Enix ditching its western game studios, such as Tomb Raider's Crystal Dynamics.

New tricks will make the headlines, but Sports Interactive's best move is to breathe new life into the brilliance that's already there. I'm writing this after losing my first game of the season. I'm managing United, as always - I'm an 'always manage the team you support' kind of FM player, as opposed to your Bundesliga hipsters or local club saviours, whom I have infinite admiration for but not a shred of envy - and of all teams to finally collapse against, I've lost away to Liverpool.

Recovering the missing Battle Bus Plans is one of the challenges you can complete in Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 2.
This challenge is classified as a Resistance challenge, which means it's part of Season 2's storyline and requires you to find a beacon in either Condo Canyon, Coney Crossroads or the Daily Bugle to start. Completing it will reward you with 23k XP, which will help you unlock some new skins from the Battle Pass, but, first, you need to know the Battle Bus Plans locations.

There's a lot to admire in Arc System Works' latest, but it's undone by some familiar faults. There's a widely held belief that fighting games are hard to get into. That their steep learning curve, niche appeal and high skill ceiling are just too much to swallow. Arc System Works, developer of both the hardcore Guilty Gear and the more accessible Dragon Ball Fighterz, has come up with a sweetener with Granblue Fantasy Vs.

In previous Soulcalibur games, Inferno used a mimic ability to copy the moveset of his opponent, in combination with a few unique moves of his own.

'No' is actually a longer word than 'Yes'. You know, my biggest fear whenever I'm ploughing my Euro-dollar into new toys from Japan is that my frankly negligible grasp of the local dialect - very much summed up in that first sentence - will leave me floundering somewhere not so far beyond the title screen. In the case of Katamari Damacy however, I had no trouble getting my head round things - mostly because the game's only real concern is getting other people's heads wrapped around me.

Struggling with Lost Ark's Tytalos Guardian raid? You're not alone. That's why Smilegate has taken the surprising step of telling players that it "strongly suggests avoiding" the raid until it's fixed. "We are aware of an issue within the Tytalos Guardian Raid that makes defeating Tytalos in the time frame alotted extremely difficult for the power level required to participate in the Guardian Raid, creating a blocker for progression," the team explained in a brief update shared over the weekend.

With this surprise Switch exclusive, Nintendo has taken an old-school approach - for better and for worse. A decade after Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 came out, the series returns in curious circumstances. This isn't an Activision gig, published to all the platforms of the time. Nor is it a Raven Software or Vicarious Visions development, as the originals were respectively. Rather, Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3 is developed by Team Ninja, the people behind Dead or Alive, Ninja Gaiden and Nioh, and published by Nintendo exclusively for the Switch.
