Whilst you can obtain one of the Hidden Leaf Village’s greatest shinobi as a playable character in Naruto to Boruto: Shinobi Striker for free, there’s a small price to pay if you wish to fight under Jiraiya’s tutelage as a Master.

We already know that Yu-Gi-Oh’s very own Yugi Muto is set to be a part of the JUMP FORCE roster, but today’s brand new trailer gives us a better look at his fighting abilities. You certainly won’t want to miss the dragon he can summon!

Each and every week EA Sports decides upon a FIFA Ultimate Team – Team of the Week (TOTW) based on players performing well in the real world for that particular week. Take a look at the official Team of the Week that will be available in Ultimate Team packs for one week on FIFA 19 from 3rd October at 6pm. Is there anyone you’d fancy adding to your team?

The Premier League season is well underway, the Champions League is already throwing up some tasty fixtures and Manchester United are wondering if David Moyes really was the man for the job after all. The excitement of football is always at one of its highest ebbs during these early months of a season and EA Sports attempt to capitalise on that every year with their annual instalment of the FIFA series. Some may say that a yearly release makes it difficult to alter too much about a game, but can FIFA 19 prove that it’s a worthy addition to the series, or are you going to be paying over the odds for an experience that’s past its best?

Having a fair few instalments of the Ultimate Ninja Storm series, it’s about time that the Naruto games tried something different. Bandai Namco obviously thought the same as they teamed up with developers Soleil to produce Naruto to Boruto: Shinobi Striker. You’d be forgiven for thinking it’s a sort of zany football hybrid given the name, but in fact it’s an online multiplayer team-based battler with ninja worldwide vying to be the greatest shinobi ever. Does Shinobi Striker get the most out of the online battling arena scene, or has it scored an own goal with a poor attempt at freshening up the Naruto offerings?

Han Solo has been a regular character in the Star Wars films over the years, with Harrison Ford playing the part of the quick-witted smuggler to perfection in four major movie instalments. Recently though, the origins of the character were delved into for Solo: A Star Wars Story – with Alden Ehrenreich taking over the titular role - and Zen Studios decided to design a set of tables inspired by the blockbuster. There are already lots of tables from this franchise available to purchase in Pinball FX3, but can the Star Wars Pinball: Solo Pack deliver a pinball experience worthy of shedding out even more cash for?

In less than two weeks, WWE 2K19 is set to make its grand entrance on Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC. 2K have promised to reveal a whole load of information before then about what to expect from the game, with their latest blog post covering new match types and gameplay improvements.

With October creeping up on us, it’s that time once again where we get to find out what the chosen additions are for the Xbox Game Pass scheme next month. There may be seven new arrivals, but one stands out way more than any other and it’s a racing enthusiasts dream come true.

To celebrate the launch of the latest Neverwinter expansion on consoles, Ravenloft, we’ve partnered up with Perfect World Entertainment and Cryptic Studios to provide you with yet another giveaway. As a result, we’re giving away Xbox One codes for an in-game fawn mount. So, who would like to be the proud owner of one?

Each and every week EA Sports decides upon a FIFA Ultimate Team – Team of the Week (TOTW) based on players performing well in the real world for that particular week. Take a look at the official Team of the Week that will be available in Ultimate Team packs for one week on FIFA 19 from 26th September at 6pm. Is there anyone you’d fancy adding to your team?

The demonic preacher of Enigmatis has been a thorn in our side ever since we ventured into Maple Creek, popping up once more in Ravenwood too. Artifex Mundi have delivered us a third and final chapter to conclude the hidden object adventure, which will hopefully see us ridding the world of the preacher in the process. The previous instalments of Enigmatis leave the finale with a lot to live up to though, so can Enigmatis 3: The Shadow of Karkhala really end the trilogy on a high point?

Just when you thought you had everything Bandai Namco were offering in terms of DLC for Sword Art Online: Fatal Bullet, they only go and announce an epilogue – separate from the Season Pass – to provide one last expansion for the game.

Looking for a new game to add to your library? Well, if you’re into a bit of football, the hardcore rally racing scene or just fancy heading into an epic war, then there’s something for you hitting the stores in the next seven days. It’s time for us to get stuck in and find out what’s ‘In Stores This Week’ for Xbox One.

Out with the old and in with the new; that’s generally how it works in regards the Xbox Game Pass library and now it’s time to go over the titles on the verge of exiting the service. Could one of your favourite games be leaving Xbox Game Pass in September?

Artifex Mundi are synonymous with hidden object, point-and-click adventures that often see you investigating the disappearance of someone and then subsequently rescuing them from the clutches of demons, beasts and evil preachers. But now it’s time for something rather different as My Brother Rabbit aims to deliver a heart-warming adventure that delves into the imagination of children and the surreal worlds they often conjure up in their minds. Does it actually leave you all warm and fuzzy though, or should Artifex have just stuck with their tried and tested formula?
