Image: SEGAIn some surprise news in the land of Puyo Puyo, it's today been announced the Switch eShop release Puyo Puyo Champions will be getting a hard copy here in the west.Pre-orders for this new physical release will be distributed by Limited Run Games, with orders opening on Valentine's Day (14th February) and closing on 17th March. There's the standard edition for $34.99 USD (or your regional equivalent) or the Classic Edition featuring a game case, double-sided poster and soundtrack for $64.99 USD.Subscribe to Nintendo Life on YouTube795kWatch on YouTube The estimated shipping date of the standard edition of Puyo Puyo Champions is 24th - 31st July 2025.Image: SEGAWhen this game first dropped locally on the Switch in 2019, we called it a "fine puzzler" even if it was missing some content - awarding it seven out of ten stars:"Puyo Puyo Champions ably covers the essentials of the series at a great price point. The inclusion of the Fever ruleset provides something of interest for veteran players and the most enthusiastic of new fans created by Puyo Puyo Tetris, and should be at least considered for any party game library. However, the lack of other single or multiplayer modes or a real tutorial make this less of a definitive entry-point or second helping for newly created casual fans than it perhaps could be."And if you don't want to wait for a physical release, this game is currently on sale on the eShop for just $1.99 USD. It's normally priced at $9.99 / 7.99. No time for losers?Will you be adding this one to your physical library?

Sprinklr, a U.S. firm providing a customer experience management platform to global brands, has laid off about 15% of its workforce around 500 employees due to business performance not meeting expectations, the company confirmed to TechCrunch.The new layoffs come less than a year after the company cut about 3% of its workforce in May and after it earlier reduced its headcount by 4% in 2023. The two earlier layoffs impacted roughly 200 employees altogether.The New York-headquartered company, which counts Microsoft, P&G, and Samsung among over 1,800 global customers, started notifying affected employees about the cuts this week, TechCrunch learned and confirmed with the company.We will refocus and rebalance our investments, talent, and resources in order to better serve our customers and partners and help them realize the full value of our AI-powered platform, a Sprinklr spokesperson said in a statement.The spokesperson confirmed to TechCrunch that the move does not impact C-level positions.The company will continue to hire in prioritized areas to focus on its strategic priorities, the spokesperson said.Last week, Sprinklr appointed former PwC partner Jan Hauser and former Lenovo CEO and C3.ai founding member Stephen Ward as new board directors amid its shifting focus toward developing AI-led experiences. In a related announcement, Sprinklr said that current board member and audit committee chair, Ed Gillis, who has served since November 2015, is stepping down from his position at the end of March.Per its most recent annual report released in March of last year, Sprinklr had 3,869 employees, including 2,276 in India and 787 in the U.S.We will support departing teammates with the greatest care and respect, acknowledging their contributions to Sprinklr, and assisting them in their transition, the spokesperson said.Alongside Sprinklr, Workday, Okta, Sonos, and Cruise are among other companies announcing job cuts in recent days as businesses face challenges amid dynamic shifts.

The same can be said for Weili Zhang and Tatiana Suarez.Suarez, the challenger, was actually a half-pound under the 115-pound weight limit, so all systems are a go for the intriguing co-main event clash.The opening fight on the early prelims was set to feature Hyun Sung Park vs. Ayamjargal Tumendemberel. However, Tumendemberel suffered some complications during his weight cut, and the fight was canceled.The card will now move forward with 12 fights.

On paper, this fight figures to be an exciting scrap, as both men are known for their all-action styles.However, Rongzhu was the last fighter to make weight, coming in at 156 pounds. Steele is a monster, and being in anything less than top condition could be bad for any opponent. Itll be interesting to see if Steele is able to get the finish quickly on Saturday or if Rongzhu is ready and able to test the highly touted newcomer.SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA - FEBRUARY 07: Colby Thicknesse of Australia poses on the scale during the UFC 312 ...

He has an interesting skill set and enviable length. Considering how weak the current heavyweight scene is in the UFC, Teixeira has a chance to rise quickly in the ranks.Hell get his first test on Saturday. If he wins impressively, dont be surprised if he is ranked in the top 15 in the next UFC rankings.

NASAs Mars Perseverance rover acquired this image of its 26th collected rock sample, named Silver Mountain, using its onboard Sample Caching System Camera, located inside the rovers underbelly. The camera looks directly down into the top of a sample tube to take close-up pictures of the sampled material and the tube ahead of sealing and storage. NASA/JPL-CaltechNASA is getting excited about a special rock that its Perseverance rover has just scooped up from the surface of Mars.This sample is a one-of-a-kind treasure, the space agency said, referring to a rock known to be abundant in low-calcium pyroxene (LCP). This makes it one of the most fascinating samples of the mission to date, as it was taken from the sole site along the planned route where this low-calcium pyroxene area was identified from orbit.Recommended VideosA post on Perseverances X account described the sample named Silver Mountain by NASA as unlike anything weve seen before, adding that its sealed the rock core in a sample tube that will be transported to Earth for analysis at a later date.Please enable Javascript to view this contentNow that I've completed my climb out of Jezero Crater, I'm back to #SamplingMars!My 26th sample, known as "Silver Mountain," has textures unlike anything we've seen before. I've sealed the rock core in a sample tube so it can be analyzed in labs on Earth in the future. pic.twitter.com/YqEPZnDnfR NASA's Perseverance Mars Rover (@NASAPersevere) January 29, 2025NASA called this particular sample collection an important milestone in our mission to uncover the geological history of Jezero Crater.It also marks a return to full-time exploration by Perseverance after it spent the closing part of last year climbing up the side of Jezero Crater, which its been exploring since its dramatic landing there four years ago.The six-wheeled rover took three-and-a-half months to complete the 1,640-feet (500- meter) climb, taking a few scheduled breaks along the way to carry out science observations as part of its ongoing search for signs of ancient microbial life on the distant planet.NASA is currently considering the best way to carry out its Mars Sample Return mission, which will attempt to bring to Earth all of the material gathered by Perseverance during the course of its Mars mission. Its a highly complex process, as it involves landing a spacecraft on the planets surface, collecting the deposited samples, transferring them to an orbiting spacecraft, and then getting them to Earth.But a successful Mars Return Mission will allow scientists to study the Martian material in laboratory conditions, potentially revealing whether the red planet once harbored life, as well as telling us more about its geological history and evolution.Editors Recommendations
