Updates! Updates! Updates! It's Wednesday, which means it's time to take a look at what marvellous updates have dropped so far this week.

You'll know about a couple of them, especially the absolutely awesome Fortnite crossover event, but we're really spoiled for choice this time. Be it new characters, new events, new levels, or more, it's time to freshen up some of your ol' favourites.

Clash Royale

As I'm sure you're aware, Clan Wars dropped a couple of weeks back and brought a new sort of gameplay with it. While this update isn't a big one, it's an important one as Supercell's looked at fixing up a few bugs AND hopefully helped in extending your phone's battery life while playing.


Dan the Man

This addictive platformer just got even more exciting following the addition of its Adventure Mode. Now, you've got two new bits of content - Medieval Adventure and Knight's Costume. Joust through castles and look the part while doing it.


Episode

As well as diving into a new episode of Love & War, there's a new tale on the cards. After waking in the night to find your sexy neighbour in your room holding your bra, what would you do? I mean, I know what I'd do, but it wouldn't be sexy.


Fire Emblem Heroes

This one really is an update and a bit. Not only can you get addition weapon skills and upgrades, FEH's had adjustments made to Tap Battle/Rival Domains, and tutorial and Arena updates, too.


Fortnite

Ho'boy, this update's a pretty cool one. In celebration of Infinity War, Epic launched a limited-time mashup mode where you can claim the Infinity Gauntlet and become Thanos. I've spoken about it in greater detail here and did have a chuckle when I found out Thanos has been nerfed a bit already.


Honkai Impact 3rd

There's a new Valkyrie to get to know this week as Yae Sakura joins the fray, along with two of her battlesuits. Along with her arrival, there's a new open world game mode (Sakura Samsara), a new 'Nine Realms Sanctuary' event, and a batch of weapons and stigmata.


Hotel Hideaway

If you're sick of things feeling a little flat this new update will be right up your street. Kick things into AR with Hotel Hideaway's shiny new Augmentarium and take your avatar all over the world.


Hyperscape

Let's keep is short 'n sweet like the official page has done. In this reaction-based arcade game, you've got some brand new ball characters to mess around with - Snake, Rabbit, Devil, Mushroom, and Crystal.


Lineage 2

It's a mixie bag of goodies in version 1.04.16 as there have been a bunch of tweaks and additions. You can now enjoy a Castle Siege mode, new worlds with new players (thanks to the servers merging/new servers), and more.


Marvel Puzzle Quest

It's about time that Marvel Puzzle Quest caught up a little as the game's got Infinity War fever. There's not a ton of information on what that entails, but I reckon you'll be looking at fresh looks for the primary Avengers and maybe some other film-based changes.


Meteorfall: Journey

At long last, the Necrodude update is here. We've covered it before on Pocket Gamer, but the TL;DR is that you've got a new hero, Muldorf the Necrodude, new shop bundles, a new option for leveling up, and tons of tweaks and balances. That's simplifying it massively, just go check it out.


Shadow Fight 3

There's a brand new event to take part in this week as the Cursed Swamps call you forth. In Menace of the Swamp you've got an event battle, an event boss and his minions to fight, trophies to collect, and you might even get your hands on some unique Maces.


Snipers vs. Thieves

This latest update may be simple, but it's more a telling of things to come. You've got a little bit of balancing going on, including bag capacity and drip rate, some bug fixes, AND the promise of new masks coming really soon.


War Dragons

This one's another teeny update as War Dragons prepares for the next part of Harbinger Tier. Apparently there'll be some new dragons flitting about the place, so keep your eyes open, folks.
