Cast your minds back to 2013 and more innocent times. Phantom Breaker had been released in a special edition for the 360 and PC and Co-Optimus gave it an impressive 4 out of 5 in our review. If you have been holding on since then for some DLC to extend the game, then you are in luck as it is finally here! The DLC has finally come to 360 - joy!
]]>The big deals here are the Legendary and Digital Collector's editions of Destiny, which include all of the content that's been released thus far for the game, for 50% of their normal asking prices of $59.99 and $79.99, respectively. That's a good chunk of content and with the Rise of Iron expansion just around the corner, chances are good you'll find some players getting back into the game.
Japanese developer 5pb Games has revealed that there is an Xbox LIVE update for arcade beat-em-up Phantom Breaker: Battle Grounds currently in the works, and will be in gamer’s hands shortly. We have the full patch notes of changes that are to be made, so read up and be ready for when they arrive.

Since its announcement, we’ve known Battle Grounds would feature 4-player co-op, but details were scarce – partially because the tiny developer doesn’t seem to have an English-speaker on staff. At last they have released a couple of trailers highlighting the game’s cooperative and competitive modes, so now we know what to expect!

However, the game's actual developer 5pb remains in good shape. They're hard at work preparing a spin-off called Phantom Breaker: Battle Grounds for Xbox Live Arcade. Even if you were unfamiliar with the series before now, this lovely new batch of screens should peak your interest.

It seems 5pb likes all kinds of fighters, as the follow-up game Phantom Breaker: Battle Grounds will be a side-scrolling beat-em-up. Such games usually benefit from 2-player co-op, but Battle Grounds goes above and beyond the call of duty with both online and offline 4-player co-op. A Battle Royale versus mode will round out the multiplayer offerings. Not too shabby!
