Overview & Key Takeaways

In a time when we're more interconnected than ever, it can still be strange to see collaborations which cross oceans. And in this case, it's Supergaming, the creators behind Indus, and Spacecaps who have teamed up to bring the Brazilian-inspired battle-royale/extraction shooter Prime Rush to mobile! You may remember us covering Prime Rush a few weeks ago, and now it's in the hands of players across Brazil as it hits iOS and Android. Inspired directly by Brazilian culture, with a setting and characters that'll be familiar to that audience, as well as offering widespread appeal with its fast-paced shooter action. ... [MORE]

  • Prime Rush, the Brazilian-themed battle royale/extraction shooter, is out now
  • It brings a mixture of win conditions and limited-time modes, not to mention ranked play
  • Supergaming and Spacecaps partnered to deliver Prime Rush to a primarily Brazilian audience

In a time when we're more interconnected than ever, it can still be strange to see collaborations which cross oceans. And in this case, it's Supergaming, the creators behind Indus, and Spacecaps who have teamed up to bring the Brazilian-inspired battle-royale/extraction shooter Prime Rush to mobile!

You may remember us covering Prime Rush a few weeks ago, and now it's in the hands of players across Brazil as it hits iOS and Android. Inspired directly by Brazilian culture, with a setting and characters that'll be familiar to that audience, as well as offering widespread appeal with its fast-paced shooter action.

But for the moment, it's Brazilian players who will be enjoying the debut content of Prime Rush. That includes a variety of game-changing tactical abilities, a roster of exciting characters, the first-ranked season and reward-packed battle-pass, not to mention plenty of limited-time modes to dip into.

Rushing in

What really stood out about Prime Rush, for me at least, was the fact that this is being developed in collaboration between an Indian and Brazilian studio. And if anyone doubts Supergaming's chops in that regard, it's well worth having a look at Indus, and the effort they went to in order to translate real-world Indian culture into an exciting shooter.

Prime Rush's big selling point is its mixture of win conditions, where you can either compete to be the last squad standing or escape with the in-game resource Cosmium to win the day. I can see both that and its culturally relevant themes, making it a majorly appealing new release for Brazilian fans.

And I can certainly see a potential place for Prime Rush on one of our major ranking lists, like that of the best battle royales on Android, where we rank some of the best shooters on mobile for competitive multiplayer action, where it's a matter of being the last man standing!

Heroic Legends Reborn is the product of two brothers rebuilding an MMO from the ground up

We all get nostalgic for games which other people seem to overlook. For me, it's Two Worlds (yeah, I know), and for two brothers, it's the now fifteen-year-old MMO Heroic Legends! So, what do you do when that game has disappeared? Well, if you're like them, you rebuild it yourself. With blessings from the original creators and access to the artwork used to create the hand-painted MMO, two brothers known as SonOfBoo and Andepher have recreated Heroic Legends from the ground up. Rechristened as Heroic Legends Reborn, it's slated to arrive on iOS and Android on September 5th. ... MORE(https://www.pocketgamer.com/heroic-legends-reborn/coming-soon/)

Nintendo’s War On Switch Emulators Continues With 400 More GitHub Takedowns🍄 Nintendo Switch, Mobile, Multi-platform

Nintendo’s War On Switch Emulators Continues With 400 More GitHub Takedowns

Nintendo is doing what Nintendo does: issuing DMCA takedown notices to anyone who illegally offers access to any of the company's games. That's exactly what happened earlier this week, as Nintendo wiped out over 400 Switch emulators from GitHub. According to an August 21 TorrentFreak report(https://torrentfreak.com/nintendo-wipes-out-400-switch-emulator-repos-in-single-day-github-sweep/), the Mario maker sent the proprietary developer platform seven DMCA takedown notices targeting Nintendo Switch emulator repositories. This includes Suyu (the Yuzu successor that became popular after Yuzu shut down(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/nintendo-lawsuit-shuts-down-switch-emulator-yuzu-and-3ds-emulator-citra/1100-6521589/) in March 2024), the Android emulator Skyline, and a few lingering Yuzu forks. In total, some 401 repositories were nuked off GitHub, with 311 of them being Suyu. Now that they're removed, if you attempt to visit the repository on GitHub, you'll receive either a 404 error or a pop-up notification that it's been taken down. In the DMCA pop-up notification, Nintendo states that the targeted repositories "offer, link to, or otherwise provide access to Nintendo Switch emulators." The company said these emulators violate Technological Protection Measures (TPMs), which act as digital locks controlled by copyright owners to prevent copying data illegally. "Specifically, these Nintendo Switch emulators illegally circumvent Nintendo's TPMs in order to run illegal copies of Nintendo Switch games," the notice reads. "Nintendo Switch games are encrypted using proprietary cryptographic keys (prod.keys) which protect against unauthorized access to and copying of the copyrighted games. During operation, the emulators at the reported repositories necessarily use unauthorized copies of these cryptographic keys to decrypt unauthorized copies of Nintendo Switch games, or ROMs, at or immediately before runtime without Nintendo's authorization." With Nintendo summoning the Eye of Mario on 401 repositories earlier this week, and over 8,500 repositories in May 2024(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/nintendo-shuts-down-yuzu-clones-in-ongoing-quest-to-kill-switch-emulation/1100-6523158/), this brings the company's repository death count to almost 9,000 on GitHub alone. And with Nintendo filing a lawsuit against Yuzu creator Tropic Haze in February 2024(https://kotaku.com/nintendo-zelda-tears-kingdom-switch-yuzu-emulate-pirate-1851293463), which resulted in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom(https://www.gamespot.com/games/the-legend-of-zelda-tears-of-the-kingdom/) being pirated over one million times before it launched, the company's war on emulators continues.
