E3 2018: 10 Ups & 5 Downs From Microsoft's Conference

There has been scuttlebutt about a new Battletoads game being in development for quite some time now...but did anyone ever really expect it to get revealed at a major E3 show?

Well, it happened.

The brief trailer didn't show any gameplay, but it did confirm that the new Battletoads will feature three-player couch co-op, hand-dawn 2.5D graphics and release next year.

It'll be interesting to see exactly what direction the new game takes - especially considering the infamous difficulty level of the 1991 original title - but it's certainly an amusingly bizarre and unexpected reveal either way.
