Kemco has announced that a remake of Death Match Love Comedy! is coming to PS4, Switch and PC on June 25th in Japan! Death Match Love Comedy! is a popular romance comedy visual novel on iOS and Android, being remade for consoles and PC. Here’s an overview of the game courtesy of Gematsu:

“Get confessed to and explode!” A school romantic comedy novel adventure game!

This is a madcap school romantic comedy where the protagonist, who is cursed to explode if anyone confesses their love to him, must avoid the confessions of the girls that approach him as he confronts the school’s curse and mysteries.

This is a full remake of the smartphone game that boasts 4.5 stars on the App Store and Google Play, now with completely new graphics.

Key Features

  • The Long-Awaited Full Remake of Raging Loop‘s Sister Title – A unique romantic comedy title by Amphibian, who previously wrote the scenario for the popular adventure game Raging Loop, now with completely new graphics. It shares the same world view as the popular Raging Loop, and even features some of the game’s characters and settings.

  • Suddenly Popularity is Tied to Exploding?! A Unique Story of Laughter and Madness – Kei Yagi is a high school student whose body will explode if someone confesses their love to him. If the madly in love heroines confess, he will immediately explode. A unique school romantic comedy story full of laughter and madness will unfold. It is about 30 hours in length.

  • Play Comfortably with the Scenario Chart – The Scenario Chart system popularized by Raging Loop has been improved, allowing you to re-read dialogue and make new choices with one touch. With dramatically improved and stress-free playability, there is no longer any need to save for each choice you make.

Destiny 2’s power cap reaches past 1000, Trials of Osiris is back and much more in Season of the Worthy

Season 10: Season of the Worthy is approaching and Bungie has outlined a ton of changes coming to Destiny 2 next week. As expected, more exotics, legendary weapons and armor are coming to Destiny 2 so the loot chase never ends!

One of the most important features of the game is the power cap, a goal that players chase as they acquire more loot. The power cap is moving to 1000 in season 10 with 1010 power being accessible through pinnacle activities (high score nightfalls, raids, etc).

In addition, Trials of Osiris is coming back to offer skilled players a challenge in multiplayer. Getting to the lighthouse for the highly prized loot takes commitment. More activities are coming alongside Trials of Osiris including:

  • Grandmaster Nightfalls
  • Seraph Tower
  • Guardian Games
  • Legendary Lost Sectors

Lastly, bright engrams will no longer be purchasable starting with Season 10. Instead, bright engrams are earning through season reward tracks just like in the previous seasons. Destiny 2’s Season of the Worthy begins on March 10th. Stay tuned at Final Weapon for the latest gaming news and updates!

iam8bit resigns as Creative Directors of E3 2020

Production company iam8bit — most known for creating merchandise for games such as Hyper Light Drifter, Monument Valley, and INSIDE — has resigned as Creative Directors of this year’s E3 floor.

In a tweet, the company stated that the decision was made with “mixed emotions” and that their E3 experience was supposed to be “evolutionary.”

E3 2020 has received mixed reactions from the gaming community, as it attempts to shift to a “fan, media and influencer festival” with “celebrity gamers.” Coupled with Sony pulling out of the convention for the second year in a row, Geoff Keighley not hosting E3 Coliseum for the first time in 25 years, as well as ongoing coronavirus concerns, members of the community have been left scratching their heads wondering if the convention is even necessary anymore.
