Capcom fighting game guru Takayuki Nakayama and his te...

Some sad news for Guilty Gear Strive online players, sort of. Arc System Works has announced in its Developer Backyard blog that the game's crossplay beta session will be delayed, but only slightly.

Arc System Works and Neople just published the patch notes of DNF Duel's upcoming 1.06 update. If you main Swift Master, you may want to sit down.
