Gaming Furever - Furry Game News

 

Microsoft announced a new Killer Instinct game during their E3 Press Conference today. While we don't know much, what we do know is three of the playable characers: Jago, Glacius, and the anthro wolf, Sabrewulf.

Check out a trailer for the game below, complete with claw-filled furriness:

In an unexpected move, Frontier announced today that they will be releasing another Zoo Tycoon game, this time exclusive to Xbox 360 and Xbox One. Here's a blurb about the title, which was announced, oddly, through a YouTube Trailer:

The wildly popular "Zoo Tycoon" series is back and bigger than ever! "Zoo Tycoon" on Xbox 360 and Xbox One has all your favorite zoo animals available for a new level of up close and personal interactions with the animals and zoo, and with intuitive controls and fun tutorials that are enjoyable for players of all ages. From creating, caring and customizing, to building, sharing and socializing, "Zoo Tycoon" has something for everyone!

You can check out the trailer for the game below:

It's finally here! Animal Crossing: New Leaf was released today for the Nintendo 3DS! Of course, what's a town without a few neighbors? This is the primo place to find fellow mayors in New Leaf!

If you have the game, and would like to leave your Friend Code here (and maybe even our Furry Gamer Database as well) you'll be sure to receive a friend request or three from fellow furries! This will serve as GF's main place to find friend codes, since the comment thread here is able to be replied to and such, making it easier to keep up with who added you.

There's also an Animal Crossing group where you can post your code as well.

So without any further ado, just post below with your digits! Oh, and if you haven't registered, you'll need to to be able to add your code.

Just the other day, Masahiro Sakurai, the designer of the Super Smash Bros series, took to Twitter to announce some very special news:

WOOHOO! Aren't you excited?! 

Wait...are you saying you can't read that? Well fine. Here's what Google says it means:

DuckTales Remastered is an official remake of the classic DuckTales game that many remember from their gaming past. WayForward Technologies has been crafting each classic level piece by piece to be loyal to the original in every way posssible, with around 70% of the game being exact replicas of the original 8-bit adventure. Original Disney Character Voice talent backs the cutscenes and commentary, adding an extra level of immersion into the modern telling of the tale. 

The game is coming to XBLA, PSN, Wii U eShop, and PC and will be released...sometime. More news from E3, surely!

Recently, IGN did a side-by-side comparison of one of the levels from the original and that level remastered. It is embeded below!

Those of you waiting to play Dust: An Elysian Tail since its release on XBLA don't have to wait much longer. The XBLA hit is coming to Steam on Windows May 24th, 2013. That's Friday! Dean Dodrill, affectionately referred to as "Noogy", announced the news with a tweet on his official account. 

I gave the game a perfect score when it was released on XBLA. We'll surely have another review for the Steam version to let you know how it plays on the PC. However, if you're a furry and a fan of metroidvania-esque titles, you will not regret playing through this one.

Star Wars: The Old Republic Update 2.1 released today, featuring updates to the customization options in the game. Of these options, one is of very special interest to us furry gamers. The Cathar, the cat-like race from the planet of the same name, are now selectable as a race option from the Cartel Market.

Here's a little background on the highly-respected Cathar, from Wookieepedia:

"The Cathar were a species of feline, bipedal humanoids native to Cathar, a planet of savannas and rough uplands. They were known for their loyalty, passion, and temper. Quick and powerful, they were considered great warriors and dedicated, efficient predators. Cathar had high moral values, learned from both family and society. Their females were prized as slaves, whereas the males were generally regarded as too uncontrollable for slavery."

Go check out all of the other details about the update here.

Thanks to Jinxorskii for the tip!

Divekick is an indie-developed fighting game by One True Game Studios, a group of fighting game players who decided to make their jokes into a game. The characters in the game are parodies of other famous "dive-kick" using fighters, such as Yun, Yang, Rufus, Kung Lao, Wolverine and Doctor Doom. The game features a unique gameplay style, which uses only two buttons: one for dive and one for kick.

Of the announced characters, one of those is a female Skunk Bear, whose name has been Redacted. Really, that is the character's alias. She is a mother of three, and the PS.Blog recently detailed exactly what makes the anthro skunkette beary tick:

Redacted

Health: 1,800
Power: 1,219,000,004
Bio: A pregnant Skunk Bear was forced to flee her Canadian homeland due to hunting activities. While traveling south, tired, hungry and alone, she drank some toxic waste that mutated her into a much larger, smarter form. She caught the scent of a very rare type of cigar and followed it to the hills of Bel Air, where she settled and now lives.
Date of Birth: 01/10/2000
Place of Birth: British Columbia, Canada
Blood Type: Unknown
Likes: The smell of Sensei’s cigars, chewing on Sensei’s cigars, stealing Sensei’s cigars, protecting her young, the smell of jeans
Dislikes: Cajun spices, Swiss cheese, anything with only one eye

 

The game is available to be voted on on Steam Greenlight, and has a planned release window of Summer 2013.

In a Facebook post on Dust's Official Facebook page today, Dean Dodrill, the owner of Humble Hearts, detailed his progress on the Steam release:

"Not very nice of me to announce the Steam version of the game and leave everyone hanging, huh? Hopefully this update helps.

Right now the game is content complete, and I'm in the final stages of testing. While I don't have a launch date yet, I'm doing EVERYTHING in my power to have the game available sometime in May.

The game looks lovely at 1080p, and I'm actually really enjoying the mouse/keyboard controls with the revamped UI. Of course gamepad controls are in as well. The wait is nearly over, thank you for your patience!"

So, the game -may- be coming out in May, and the game now has confirmed 1080p and gamepad controls. In the comments for the story, Dean also discusses that he just started looking into pre-order/promo items, and we'll keep you updated on that. Also, he said that he's "talking to people" about fidget dolls.

Earlier this morning, a PAL version of the limited edition Animal Crossing: New Leaf 3DS XL bundle that had previously been released in Japan, was spotted available for pre-order on the UK shop ShopTo. Since then, it has been removed, predictably because it has not even yet been announced for a European or North American release. 

ShopTo had listed the bundle at £189.85 and with a release date of June 14th, the same day New Leaf is dropping.

The bundle also included a copy of Animal Crossing: New Leaf as a pre-installed digital download.

In what can't just be a coincidence, the listing comes just a day before a new 3DS-focused Nintendo Direct conference. We'll keep you updated on whether they announce this bundle then, and if it will be arriving in the States.

Gundog, the newest game from massive online game publisher OGPlanet, has now entered its beta test phase. The game features an undeniable furry influence, and includes only anthropomorphic canines as playable characters. You've gotta get in to play it quick though! It only runs from April 4-8!

The game features 6 different breeds of dogs, at least, and a multitude of classes. It is based on a card-collecting system, which allows you to craft a specific loadout for different classes. Looks very similar to TF2.

Check out the video below, and download the game on the official site.

In a panel at PAX East today, Dean Dodrill, chief creator of Dust: An Elysian Tail and owner of Humble Hearts, announced that he is excited about bringing the previously Xbox Live Arcade exclusive game to the PC. 

He hopes to have the game ready for Steam by as early as April. 

In another not-so-surprising tidbit of news, Dean added that he is definitely thinking about a sequel, stating, "I do have a lot of ideas for Dust 2." 

We'll keep you posted on release announcements, and if anything about a sequel crops up again.

Cave Story’s Daisuke “Pixel” Amaya has revealed his next gaming title, Gero Blaster. He's showing the game at BitSummit in Japan this weekend. Gero Blaster is the story of Kaeru, a frog, who is trying to find his girlfriend, a cat. It's a side-scrolling shooter that looks to make its way onto iOS and Nintendo 3DS.

The game has a planned release window of around May 2013. You can check out a trailer for the game below!

Looking for some games featuring furry friends? You've come to the right place! We've got a growing list of games/apps that feature anthros, animals, and anything gaming-related that we think you guys and gals would enjoy. If you discover a game that we don't have on this list that you think we should, just send us a poke here!

EA posted an image to their @EASportsGolf Twitter account yesterday with a picture attached that shows off their new "Night Golf" feature coming to Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 14. With the question, "Any ideas who the new 'scratch' golfer is?

What are your thoughts? Are those hooves or just makeshift shoes for a werewolf? Or is it a goat or some other ungulate?

Animal Crossing: New Leaf, at long last, has a release date. North American humans will be able to pickup the game on June 9th, while our human friends across the sea in Europe will get it 5 days later, on June 14th.

The announcement was made during this morning's Nintendo Direct Presentation, and the trailer from that presentation is available below!

Who else can't wait for the next installment of this classic series?
