The stellar puzzle-platfomer Fez is now available on iOS [Video]

$5

Fez was released on the Xbox Live Arcade back in April of 2012 to critical praise. After a notably long development time, the game went on to sell over a million copies in the first year before it was expected to hit other platforms.

After the year-long exclusivity deal with Microsoft lapsed, the game went on to release on PS4 and PC. While announcements were made regarding an iOS port around the same time, the colorful puzzle-platformer never hit Apple’s mobile operating system. But, after a very long wait, the Phil Fish designed Fez is now downloadable for iPhone and iPad.

Capcom unveils Mega Man 11 for Nintendo Switch/PS4/Xbox One [Video]

Read more

(Update 5/29 2:40pm): Mega Man 11 is now available for pre-order at Amazon on Xbox One, PS4 and Nintendo Switch for $39.99. Amazon Prime members will only pay $23.99 shipped.

Mega Man is one of those game series that has been around forever and no one wants it to go away. But from some reason Capcom has, for the most part, failed to give gamers their fix of the iconic Blue Bomber over the years. We last saw a Mega Man proper was back in 2010 when Mega Man 10 launched. That game, as well as Mega Man 9 before it, was essentially an old school 8-bit throw back, basically along the same lines as all of the classic titles in the series. But this morning, Capcom shocked the gaming world with the announcement of Mega Man 11, the release of the debut trailer (loads of gameplay footage included) and a brand new visual treatment…
