Marvel Snap Update for October 3 Brings New Features and More

Second Dinner Studios has pushed out the Marvel Snap update for October 3, and this brings new features alongside other improvements, which are listed in the official patch notes.

Marvel Snap Update for October 3 Patch Notes:

PATCH HIGHLIGHTS

  • New Refresh Time: Daily and Weekly Refresh Times are being moved from 3AM UTC to 7PM UTC (+16HRS). Please note, it’s likely that you’ll see a one-time extension on countdown timers when updating to this patch.

GENERAL UPDATES

  • Card Quality Preview: When previewing cards in the Shop (Bundles, Daily Offer, and Token Shop), players will be able to view a card at any Quality Level (Epic, Legendary, Ultra, etc).
  • Earn Rare & Super Rare Avatars: Collector’s Reserves can now reward Rare Avatars with art from Rare Variants–including Avatars for Variants you do not yet own! Additionally, once you own all Card Variants for a Rarity (ex: you own all Super Rare Variants), you will be able to earn those Variant Avatars from the Premium Mystery Variant. We plan to add additional ways to acquire Rare and Super Rare Avatars in the future.

FEATURES

  • Location Emoji Reactions: Show your feelings about Locations the same way you’ve been able to express them on Cards with Emoji Reactions. In the Location detail view (accessed by tapping on a Location), tap on the Emoji to bring up the Emoji selector. Currently, there are three options: Starry-eyed, Shocked, and Angry.
  • News Feed Notification Pip: You will now see a red notification “pip” on the News Feed icon in the Main Menu when there’s a new item listed in the News Feed.

 

AUDIO

  • Added SFX to Morbius

ART & VISUAL EFFECTS

  • Added VFX to Morbius
  • Updated Cable’s VFX to draw the card from the top of the deck instead of the bottom.

BALANCE UPDATES

CARD UPDATES

  • Mojo
  • [Old] 2/2 – Ongoing: If both players have 4 cards at this location, +6 Power.
  • [New] 2/2 – Ongoing: If both sides here are full, +6 Power.

Developer Note: This is just a minor consistency adjustment, bringing Mojo in line with Dazzler and the way she cares about full locations vs. a specific number of cards at those locations. We’ll continue exploring exactly where and how to draw that line. For example, Ant-Man requiring his teammates to get his buff feels slightly more resonant, but it’s more likely than not he’ll get this treatment next.

  • Uatu
  • [Old] 1/2 – Once this is in your hand, you can see the unrevealed locations
  • [New] 1/1 – At the start of the game, shows the right location to you.

Developer Note: The combination of Uatu’s effect being significant very early in the game but also dependent on drawing him has left this card in a tough spot. We’ve decided to start adjusting him by exploring a remedy that functions regardless of whether you draw him or not. We have some particular philosophies around this space, as it disrupts some of the tension we value in locations and we’re not looking to make Uatu a staple of Series 1/2 play. This is definitely an overly safe adjustment, and we may return to the card again based on how it goes.

  • Mantis
  • [Old] 1/2 – On Reveal: If your opponent played a card here this turn, draw a card from their deck.
  • [Change] 1/2 -> 2/3
  • Cable
  • [Old] 2/2 – On Reveal: Draw the top card of your opponent’s deck
  • [Change] 2/2 -> 3/4
  • Maria Hill
  • [Old] 2/3 – On Reveal: Add a random 1 or 2-Cost card to your hand.
  • [New] 1/2 – On Reveal:Add a random 2-Cost card to your hand.

Developer Note: These adjustments are all related, so we’ll go over them as a group. These three cards, along with Agent 13, Sentinel, and Snowguard, make up a cadre of characters that all add a card to your hand for a cheap cost under different circumstances. However, they’re also all overlapping one another a fair bit, existing in a tight range of Cost and Power combinations. We’d like to break that up a little bit to build in some differentiation as to how they’re used and where they might be played. It’s unlikely that this is the last tweak to this group we’ll make, but it should get the ball rolling and let us see more clearly how the live game values what each card is uniquely capable of bringing.

Persona 5 Tactica Characters Spotlight Shows Off Ryuji, Ann, and More

A brand new Persona 5 Tactica character trailer is here to show off the latest group of playable characters in the upcoming strategy game. Players can dip into Persona 5’s extensive roster of Phantom Thieves to blaze through tactical strategy combat scenarios. Each character has their own special abilities and a Persona that can help turn the tide of battle.

Here’s the new character trailer for your viewing pleasure:

Don’t feel like watching the video? No worries, we’ve got the breakdown for you here:

Persona 5 Tactica Characters

  • Ryuji – Matching his big and bold personality, Ryuji uses a shotgun to deal damage to multiple enemies in its field of fire. As for his Persona, Captain Kidd specializes in attacks that inflict shock. With his unique skill Brigantine Blitzkrieg, you can eliminate multiple enemies in a straight line—even if they’re behind cover.
  • Ann – With her submachine gun, Ann is able to hit several enemies with her basic ranged attack. With her Persona Carmen, Ann can hit groups of enemies as well as inflict burn on them. Try out Ann’s Femme Fatale attack to deliver a bomb directly to enemies in cover.
  • Yusuke – Yusuke can take down legionnaires with his assault rifle dishing out damage from across a wide distance. If that wasn’t enough, he relies on his Persona Goemon to unleash the ability Bufu to attack a small area with ice and inflict a freeze effect to enemies in the blast zone. He can also use the ability Like a Phantom to create decoys on the battlefield to keep enemies off balance.
  • Makoto – In combat, Makoto isn’t afraid of getting up close and personal to deliver punishment to her enemies. Also, with the aid of her Persona Johanna, she uses abilities like Full Throttle to damage enemies across a straight line in front of her with the added bonus of knocking foes aside and potentially out of cover altogether.
  • Futaba – Though not actively in the field, she assists the team from the sidelines using her Persona Necronomicon to heal teammates as well as restoring their SP so they can pull of more powerful attacks.
  • Haru – While she may appear gentle on the outside, legionnaires won’t want to underestimate her in combat. Haru uses a grenade launcher to deal damage to multiple enemies on the battlefield, then follows up with her Persona Milady, which features the ability Noble Lady’s Invitation that draws her foes closer for a big AoE attack.

Excited to hop into the world of Persona 5 again? Let us know in the comment below.

If you want to know more about Persona 5 Tactica, check out the latest gameplay details here. If you’re more interested in mainline Persona, you can watch the TGS trailer for Persona 3 Reload here.

Persona 5 Tactica releases on November 17 for PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC.

Dead by Daylight Halloween Event, “Haunted by Daylight,” Launches October 18: Roadmap Detailed

The spookiest 4v1 horror game is about to get spookier. The 2023 Dead by Daylight Halloween event has just been teased by developer Behaviour Interactive. Titled “Haunted by Daylight,” the update will arrive to the game in just a few short weeks.

We’ve got a teaser for the update here:

Right off the bat, the ethereal blue setting of this event sets a pretty different tone from much of Dead by Daylight’s maps. The space looks much more isolated and, well, haunting. The teaser is brief, but it’s already got us excited.

We’ve even received a brief description of what the event will include:

Dare to enter the Void that is Dead by Daylight where your favorite horror characters coexist, ruled by a dark force in never-ending Trials. The Fog thickens this year as Haunted by Daylight, the unmissable in-game Halloween event returns, bigger than it’s ever been.

Players should get amped up on their jump scares thanks to Void Zones, new, terrifying gates to a mysterious Realm where the Entity’s victims – or Haunts – are dismissed and await to be released. The stakes will be even higher as players will find themselves face to face with these Haunts for the first time…

Dead by Daylight Halloween Roadmap

Additionally, Behaviour shared a roadmap of upcoming content for the month of October.

dead by daylight halloween

  • October 3 – Setting things off on October 3 is the arrival of some brand-new Dead by Daylight merch, coming exclusively to the online store. They’ve got new baseball shirts, t-shirts, 3 Halloween-themed Charm keychains (Moon Cat, Bat Cat, and Scarecrow Jake), a Gaming Mat, and a limited-edition poster. Check out the store right here and see them for yourself!
  • October 11 – October 11 marks the release of Tome 17: COMMITMENT, featuring new Outfits for The Oni, Feng Min, The Dredge, Adam Francis, and much more. Not only that, but there’s also plenty of Charms to unlock, as well as memories for The Oni and Feng Min.
  • October 13 – A few days before Haunted by Daylight, Behaviour will be hosting a jam-packed livestream highlighting everything you can expect from the scariest event yet. Not only that, but they’ve arranged for an epic surprise that will explore the world of Dead by Daylight like never before.
  • October 18 – Haunted by Daylight returns, bringing a new Event Tome, the unsettling Void Realm, and plenty of tricks and treats to uncover. For the duration of the Event, they’ll also be running daily rewards until November 6th, so don’t miss out. Need a costume? They’ve got several Cosmetic Collections releasing just in time for Halloween: Void Touched, Tricks and Treats, and the return of all previous Halloween Outfits.
  • October 24 – Nothing can stop The Blight from concocting his sinister experiments. The Hallowed Blight Collection returns with new Outfits for The Xenomorph, The Onryō, and Yoichi Asakawa.

And there you have it. Players can expect new store items, an event reveal livestream, and even a new Tome release, all in the month of October. There’s plenty of content for survivors and killers alike to chew on here.

If you’re looking to dive back into Dead by Daylight, you might want to know what’s been added to the game lately. Check out the latest Alien crossover update here.

Dead by Daylight’s Haunted by Daylight event launches on October 18. To keep up to date on everything the update will include, stay locked in to us here at MP1st.

Report: The Last of Us 2 Multiplayer “On Ice” Following Naughty Dog Layoffs

Another day, another video game company making cuts. According to a new report, Naughty Dog layoffs have begun recently as the studio has let go of “at least 25 developers.” What’s more, these layoffs are directly affecting the development of the currently untitled The Last of Us 2 multiplayer game, which the studio has been quietly working on since they announced it in June of 2022.

The report from Kotaku has claimed that all of the developers who were laid off were contract workers and that the majority of them were quality assurance testers. Additionally, these workers and those still employed by Naughty Dog have been asked to keep the layoffs under wraps. It’s unclear whether this pressure comes from Naughty Dog themselves or higher up, but either way, it seems shady.

What’s more, these employees reportedly received no severance pay of any kind. Instead, they are expected to continue their work through October and keep their heads down. If all of this is true, then it isn’t a great look for Naughty Dog.

All of these cuts have also resulted in a near halting of the development of the The Last of Us 2 multiplayer game. A source of Kotaku’s reportedly claimed that the game is “basically on ice” at this point, meaning it’s not being actively developed. After Bungie was called in to give an internal review of the game back in June, they had pretty negative feedback. This latest slew of layoffs might have been the nail in the coffin for the time being.

We say this every time, but layoffs are not surprising given the current state of the gaming industry. We just saw Epic Games lay off nearly 900 employees. That was hot on the heels of a whole heap of Embracer Group restructuring that resulted in the death of beloved studio Volition and major cuts to Tomb Raider developer Crystal Dynamics. Letting people go seems especially prevalent right now. We hope that the trend slows soon and game devs can feel more job security in what they do.

At this rate, it’s unlikely that we’ll hear about the Last of Us multiplayer game any time soon. If you’re interested in seeing Naughty Dog’s last statement about the game, click here.

We’ll update this post if Naughty Dog or Sony end up commenting on the layoffs. Until then, stay tuned in to us here at MP1st.

Batman: Arkham Trilogy Delayed to December 1, 2023

Warner Bros. Games has announced that Batman: Arkham Trilogy has been delayed. Originally scheduled for October 13, the trilogy’s launch date has been pushed back to December 1, 2023.

https://twitter.com/BatmanArkham/status/1709029767851245954

Batman: Arkham Trilogy bundles together three iconic titles from the franchise, Batman: Arkham Asylum, Batman: Arkham City, and Batman: Arkham Knight. It also includes all previously released downloadable content, making it an exciting package for the fans.

One notable aspect of this release is that the porting is being handled by Turn Me Up Games, who are known for their expertise in bringing the game to Nintendo Switch. If they are delaying the game this close to release, there is bound to be a good reason for it.

The good thing is that wait is not that long as Batman: Arkham Trilogy will launch on December 1, 2023.
