Overview & Key Takeaways

PUBG Mobile has never been a stranger to collaborations, but I think it's fair to say that many of them are a little boring. But recently, that's been changing with newer collaborations, such as with the hit anime series Naruto Shippuden! And to build anticipation for the event, PUBG Mobile and Studio Pierrot have dropped a new teaser animation. Studio Pierrot will be instantly recognisable to fans as the original animators behind the series, based on Masashi Kishimoto's hit manga. The new teaser gives us a look at what the upcoming collab will feature, not to mention confirmation that a longer tie-in animation will also arrive alongside it on July 9th. ... [MORE]

  • PUBG Mobile has released a new teaser animation for its upcoming Naruto Shippuden collab
  • The event sees the introduction of fan-favourite characters, locations and abilities this month
  • And with the launch of the collab next week a full-length version of the animation will be made available

PUBG Mobile has never been a stranger to collaborations, but I think it's fair to say that many of them are a little boring.

Dial 'n' for ninja

The upcoming Naruto Shippuden collab is certainly promising to be one of the most ambitious events PUBG Mobile has hosted in a while. Fan-favourite characters, locations and weaponry are all slated to make an appearance, not to mention the signature abilities wielded by the characters.

Previously, it felt as if PUBG and PUBG Mobile often played second fiddle to Fortnite in terms of collaborations. That event featuring luggage brand American Traveller certainly felt like a bit of a low point. But since then, PUBG Mobile has hosted many other hit franchises in the battleground.

If nothing else, for fans of the anime, it'll be exciting to see Studio Pierrot return to one of the biggest hits in their catalogue, and with a longer short promised on the 9th, I've no doubt many of you will be checking in just to see that!

In the meantime, while you're waiting for the arrival of this new collaboration, why not take the edge off with some exciting releases available to play right now? Our latest list of the five new mobile games to try this week is the place to start!

Slots & Daggers sees you leaving things up to chance in this dark fantasy Balatro-like

Ever since Balatro combined the roguelike with poker, it seems that many developers have tried their hand at coming up with a similar combination. And the RPG has been a favourite to try and put a twist on, as you can see with the newly released Slots & Daggers for iOS and Android! Already releasing on Steam to rave reviews, Slots & Daggers combines a strange dark fantasy world with slot-machine style spins to acquire weapons, armour and equipment. Each battle you go into is as dependent on luck as your own ability, with small microgames to activate your weaponry and abilities. ... MORE(https://www.pocketgamer.com/slots-daggers/out-now/)

The Convergence is a dark fantasy auto-battler that uses an isometric perspective

As we head towards midday, there's an interesting little iOS auto-battler that's just crossed my desk. That's a genre I've often expressed confusion about the appeal of in the past, but if there's one that can justify why people like it, I reckon that The Convergence, out now on iOS, may just be that! With its isometric perspective and dark fantasy world, it's easy to see that The Convergence may have taken some significant inspiration from the world of Diablo. In it, you equip your heroes and send them out, watching as they either succeed or fail based on your preparation. ... MORE(https://www.pocketgamer.com/the-convergence/out-now-on-ios/)

MoonDust: Cosmic Journey is an atmospheric sci-fi side-scroller with lush graphics

It's hard to really communicate the majesty and grandeur of outer space in gaming. I mean, there's only so many times you can stare in wonder at stars and nebulae before it all gets a bit samey. Fortunately, MoonDust: Cosmic Journey offers a truly visually attention-grabbing take on worlds of sci-fi and outer space! Available now on iOS, MoonDust is described by the developer as an atmospheric sci-fi exploration game. What that means is you'll have basic side-scrolling action in the foreground as you pilot your ship and avoid obstacles while collecting different elements, as in the background a gorgeous vista of strange alien worlds goes by. ...
