It took a few days for the Mongols to get ready again, and at the beginning of June, both fleets had departed. Only, the Korean one did not wait again to join with its Chinese allies and sailed for Iki Island, where the combined weight of Korean and Mongol numbers managed to overwhelm the defend

For those looking for an even more thorough analysis, however, research firm SuperData has quickly made a name for itself in video games due to the company’s willingness to examine more online-oriented data like microtransaction sales and the like. Recently, SuperData finally released its findings for the September 2016 period, and it appears that the dominance of some of gaming’s biggest titles will not be broken easily – Pokemon GO , Destiny , and League of Legends topped the cash grossing charts for mobile, console, and PC gaming respectiv

Even though SuperData’s reports confirm more of the same kind of results video game fans have come to expect in 2016, there are still a number of interesting insights to be gleaned from what the firm has found. Bolstered by sales that were stronger than Destiny ‘s initial launch period, the release of Destiny: Rise of Iron in September rocketed Bungie’s shooter to the top of the console charts over traditionally dominant fall releases like FIFA

On the mobile platform, the continued dominance of Pokemon GO is also the most unsurprising, as the title’s status of global phenomenon has not been in jeopardy despite the development team’s slow response time in updating or implementing key design features. Pokemon GO sits comfortably ahead of its compatriots on mobile, much like League of Legends does its competitors on PC – World of Warcraft is the closest to Riot’s cash cow, with the nearest genre competitor being DOTA 2 a full six ranks behind Leag

In a market as complex as the one that video games are developed, marketed, and sold in, the research data regarding their respective successes or failures is equally complicated.

Announced back at E3 2016 from the long dormant Sony Bend Studio, fans have been able to see multiple substantial demos from the open-world apocalypse Strategy Game News|Https://Strategynewsbase.Com/ despite the title having no release period yet to be attached to it. Days Gone skipped last year’s PSX event, and with no confirmed panels or playable demos, a similar fate could likely befall Sony’s less anticipated zombie title. At best, fans could expect a trailer that perhaps dives further into the story and characters that Sony Bend has kept mum on thus far.

It’s been a month since we announced our newest title, Ghost of Tsushima. Here at Sucker Punch, we’ve watched so many reaction videos and read many of your comments with smiles on our faces, so we thought PSX was a great opportunity to share a little more with you

Interestingly, there are conflicting accounts on how effective Japanese archery and tactics really were against the Mongols, with mentions of sniping officers from afar being definitely successful. Some sources also suggest that Mongol formations weren’t as cohesive as others allege. Yet, one detail is interesting: the early Tachi blades used by the Samurai were too long and thin, causing them to often snap when impacting against the thick boiled leather armor worn by the Mongols. This triggered a process of revision of the Japanese sword that would lead to the creation of the shorter and sturdier Katana as we know
