Magicmon: World, the fantasy-themed MMORPG that’s been making waves among pet-rearing enthusiasts in Asia, has launched worldwide on iOS and Android devices.

Developed by Magic Network Limited, Magicmon has emerged from pre-registration to invite players to take on the role of trainers to the eponymous magical creatures, which will fight, grow and evolve alongside them as they make their mark in a shared online world.

The game puts companion-based progression up front and centre, and combines this mechanic with open-world exploration, a robust levelling-up component and social interaction systems within a persistent multiplayer environment.

As a Magicmon trainer, you’ll travel across diverse fantasy regions including forests, frozen landscapes, and ancient ruins in search of the titular beasts, which come in numerous different species for you to capture, train and nurture along various evolutionary paths.

Magicmons evolve through several development stages, unlocking new abilities and enhanced combat skills on their journey, and player progression is tied closely to this.

This might all sound overly familiar to gamers who enjoy catching digital monsters, but fear not, Magicmons has plenty of original content to sink your teeth into. There are six trainer classes to choose between and a raft of customisation options to add a personal touch.

What’s more, co-op features and social systems such as party play and guild participation, make this a connected experience. The action takes place in a shared online world where trainers can explore, battle powerful enemies, and take part in shared activities.

Players who signed up for Magicmon: World’s pre-registration can claim a bundle of complementary gifts when they log in for their first post-launch session, which includes an exclusive Fairy Suit outfit, an Egg Magicmon and entry into a free prize draw.

Magicmon: World is now available from the App Store and Google Play worldwide.

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.
