Mortal Kombat X: New DLC teased to make story unplayable characters playable

After the previous announcement of about four new characters being added to Mortal Kombat X as a DLC, it looks like more can be on their way to us.

Ed Boon, series creator, recently replied to a tweet about these story mode unplayable characters and the possibility of them, being added with the availability to play to the game with the following: “[You] mean like a ‘Story Pack’?”

In previous Mortal Kombat releases, characters like Rain, Sinder and Baraka were playable. Characters that not only are story mode characters but also challengers that you have to fight. Even being available previously, these aren’t playable on MKX. Good news? A modder got them working on PC (but not entirely).

This tease doesn’t make anything 100% clear as in that the so called ‘Story Pack’ will be released, but after the microtransactions for easy fatalities got added, it’s not wrong to presume this.

On a side note, following the free costume that came with the latest MKX patch, more will come with future patches, according to another one of Boon’s tweet.

Better Late Than Never – Valve Working on CS:GO Hitboxes

Three years after the release of Counter Strike: Global Offensive, Valve has finally confirmed it’s working on it’s long-running issue of flawed hitboxes.
Hitboxes are an invisible part of character models that register collision with bullets, and have been a huge part criticism flung at Valve for their latest iteration of their first-person shooter, Counter Strike: Global Offensive.

CS:GO’s hitbox issues were further pushed into the spotlight of both Valve and the playerbase when a video emerged of a player firing point-blank at an enemy and dealing absolutely no damage. The video was pushed to the top of the CS:GO subreddit and was quickly sent to Valve employees after the community showed it’s outrage to how ridiculous it was.

Valve coder Matt Wood responded by saying the hitboxes are “being worked on”, but added that the company as of right now has no specific release window for any update that would change the current hitboxes. It could be in a month, or several years. We sadly have to deal with jumpscouts in Dust 2 being invincible for a bit longer. As well as point-blank firing not working and blankly staring at each other while you reload. Below is the video in question that shows the point-blank (yet zero damage) spray of gods.

Expansion Confirmed For Bloodborne

The highly acclaimed (and slightly frustrating) game from Sony has as of today been confirmed to get an expansion.

More info regarding this new expansion for Bloodborne should be released later this year.
Bloodborne was released as a PS4 exclusive on March 24st. It was developed by ‘From Software’, the creators behind the excellent games Demon’s Souls as well as Dark Souls. Most people who played any of these games, as well as Bloodborne, will realize that From Software does one thing incredibly well: Pose a challenge to the player to overcome. Not a huge amount of gimmicks, just learning how to play your character in every situation. And whether or not your computer can get through the loading screens after dying fast enough.
