Welcome to the Rollback: a frame-by-frame look back at our past week’s most notable news — and our favorite SRK articles — from April 6 to April 12, 2018!

Frame 3:

… and they’re still teasing at the moment, with no official reveal as of yet.
Frame 4:
Siegfried, the cursed knight, steps into SoulCalibur VI!
Siegfried mains, rejoice — meanwhile, everyone else is wondering why a roster slot is being spent on Siegfried, as opposed to one of the other yet-unannounced characters that could return.

Frame 1:
BlazBlue: Cross Tag Battle will be publicly available to play at GameStop stores next week
I am eager to hear the hands-on impressions of players. I have always believed pre-release scrutiny makes better games, period.
Frame 2:
The King of Fighters XIV’s version 3.0 update brings a boatload of balance changes, on top of new characters
For the moment, it certainly seems like SNK’s latest update has given KOFXIV the shot in the arm it needed. Or maybe that’s just the power of Blue Mary.
Frame 3:
NorCal Regionals pumps up the jam with this replay of Windjammers top 8
Long live Windjammers.
Frame 4:
New Pokkén Tournament DX “Air-Ground” glitch sends standing attacks flying
It’s not so much that I think the Air-Ground glitch is useful or game-breaking, I just think it’s hilarious.
Frame 5:
Brace your wallet for the “Diamond Dream” Deluxe Edition, available for SNK Heroines: Tag Team Frenzy
I don’t even want this game — and the thought has crossed my mind to get this edition just for the hat.
