For the past week or so, some folks playing Spider-Man: Miles Morales on the PC have been encountering a bug that, at the end of the game's dialogue sequences, would just go ahead and play a honking loud air horn.

The Last Of Us TV series has had a couple of trailers, one very short and one a bit longer, but both of those were very much of the teaser variety, keeping things close to their chest and only showing brief flashes of scenery and action. HBO released a third trailer over the weekend, however, and this one has a lot

Genshin Impact Scaramouche Voice Actor, Character Demo Shared

There's yet another Genshin Impact trailer for The Wanderer, the playable version of Scaramouche, and this time it is a character demo. The new video focuses on setting the stage for him, before showing him enter a battle against members of the Fatui. In addition, HoYoVerse officially confirmed the English voice actor and Japanese voice actor for Scaramouche in another tweet on the Genshin Impact Twitter account.

First, here's the Genshin Impact "Wanderer: Of Solitude Past and Present" character demo for Scaramouche. Like another character close to him, a bird seems drawn to him during more quiet moments.

In English, Patrick Pedraza is the voice actor for Scaramouche in Genshin Impact. He's also played Yun in Onyx Equinox and Mike Tiller in Fallout 76's Steel Dawn DLC. In Japanese, Tetsuya Kakihara plays the character. Kakihara is known for his roles as Natsu Dragneel in Fairy Tail, Jin Kisaragi and Hakumen in BlazBlue, Lloyd Bannings in Trails of Cold Steel, and Prompto Argentum in FFXV.

Genshin Impact is available for the PS4, PS5, PC, and mobile devices, and the Scaramouche (The Wanderer) banner will appear on December 7, 2022.

Genshin Impact Scaramouche and Itto Banner Details Shared

As expected, HoYoVerse shared Genshin Impact banner details for the new Scaramouche (The Wanderer) and Itto rerun ones debuting on December 7, 2022. The company already confirmed Faruzan would be a four-star focus unit on both. However, it turns out Gorou and Yanfei will also join them.

Scaramouche, now known as The Wanderer, is a five-star Anemo character in Genshin Impact. He'll use a catalyst in-game. The Epitome Invocation weapon banner running on that date will include the five-star Tulaytullah's Remembrance catalyst designed with him in mind. Itto is a returning five-star Geo character. He wields claymores. Likewise, the weapon banner will bring back his Redhorn Stonethresher five-star claymore.

While the focus five-stars are always different on these banners, they share the same four-stars. New Anemo archer Faruzan makes her debut on both. Gorou is a returning Geo archer. As for Yanfei, she's a Pyro character who uses catalysts.

For the meantime, two other rerun banners are available. People can get Childe and Yae Miko again until December 6, 2022. He's a five-star Hydro archer, while she's a five-star Electro catalyst-wielder.

Genshin Impact is available for the PS4, PS5, PC, and mobile devices, and the Scaramouche (Wanderer) banner and Itto rerun banner will appear on December 7, 2022. They will end on December 27, 2022.

Soccer Story's Best Feature is Its RPG Mode

Soccer Story showed up on multiple platforms, blending the idea of a soccer game with RPG and minigame elements. As the concept and whimsical designs suggest, it doesn't take itself too seriously. (After all, you have a panda as a team captain.) But while the soccer segments are capable enough, what really makes the game stand out is the RPG side of things.

Soccer Story begins in a world in which only officially licensed soccer matches from a big name corporation are allowed. At a past match, a goal exploded and disaster struck, providing the perfect excuse to tear it away from the masses. The player character, one of two twins that the player can pick between, loves the sport though! Especially since their father was a player in that fateful calamity of a game. When a futuristic ball crashes into their room, they end up getting an opportunity to pull together their own team.

Soccer Story's Best Feature is Its RPG Mode

This means a number of things for the RPG segment. There's light adventuring here! You'll travel around different areas, advancing a story and making soccer dreams come true. This initially manifests in just finding the ball, scoring your first goal, and getting a team back together. Once you get a team, you can invest in them to build up attributes like speed to improve their performance in soccer matches. Since the ball is an electronic marvel, you can summon it while running around to complete certain objectives for rewards or complete challenges involving skills like dribbling. It's got personality.

Now, the thing is, someone shouldn't go in expecting Inazuma Eleven-style RPG antics from Soccer Story. This isn't that. Yes, you can upgrade your characters' skills, do a bit of recruiting, and it is a story-heavy adventure. However, the actual soccer matches are more traditional and don't have the same tactical approach as the Level-5 series. It also lacks some of the earnestness of that title.

Instead, it's better to compare Soccer Story's elements to Golf Story. While they're from different developers, it's a far more apt comparison. Both offer more traditional takes on their respective sports' actual activities once you start taking part in matches or heading out on the course. There's also the same sense of humor in each, as well as the inclusion of little minigames and challenges tied to soccer or golf.

Soccer Story's Best Feature is Its RPG Mode

Especially as the actual soccer games aren't incredible. Matches are relatively basic, skills aside. You can take part in matches on their own, with teams made up of ordinary players, toddlers, and the elderly. But it isn't particularly in-depth and it can take quite a bit of time to score.

Novel is a good way to think of Soccer Story. It's a fun passing amusement. It isn't the Inazuma Eleven successor I'd hope for. But if you liked Golf Story and are waiting for something to play before Sports Story shows up, it is a good fit.

Soccer Story is available for the Nintendo Switch, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and PC.
