One of the primary examples is Jeremy, a Descendant whose unique Arche ability is teleportation. Right from the start, Jeremy makes himself an annoyance to work with, making it clear that he does not like the player. This makes his eventual betrayal an incredibly predictable twist.

Darksiders, the slightly edgy take on the Zelda format, is getting a brand new game though don't expect much from it just yet. It's been six years since the last entry in the main Darksiders series was released, Darksiders 3, which received some pretty mixed reviews upon its release. Aside from the spinoff title Darksiders Genesis that was released a year later, it pretty much felt like the series was ***** in the water, perhaps because it just couldn't fit in in the previous console generation. Well, mixed reviews or not, that doesn't matter much, as publisher THQ Nordic announced a brand new entry in the series during its 2024 Digital Showcase, with this new entry once again being developed by Gunfire Games. A thing to note is that Gunfire Games is led by David Adams, who founded Vigil Games, the original developer behind the first two Darksiders, so it sounds like the series is sticking with those who know it best. An Xbox Wire blog post said of the new game: "The foreboding rumble of caverns eons old. Embers swirl through the air, cast up from pools of bubbling lava. Three enormous heads, hewn from otherworldly stone suddenly burst into life with mystical flame. The Charred Council roar a single word in unison: HORSEMAN. It won’t be long until we reveal more about where the Darksiders series is going next, but for now, know this… the Four Horsemen will ride again." Read more View the full article

It looks like that rumoured mobile version of Final Fantasy 14 is on the way, as one has just been approved for release in China. Last month it was reported that Tencent was working on a mobile version of the immensely popular MMO Final Fantasy 14, and it appears that said report has been confirmed. Niko Partners shared a report this week stating that China’s National Press and Publication Administration (NPPA) approved 15 import games on August 2, which includes some pretty big titles. As stated by Niko Partners, "A mobile game based on Final Fantasy XIV is being developed by Tencent and Square Enix and was approved." Obviously the language there suggests that it'll be its own game, rather than an outright port of the game. Daniel Ahmad of Niko Partners shared on his personal Twitter account that this mobile take on Final Fantasy 14 is "expected to be a standalone MMORPG separate from the PC game," so it doesn't exactly sound like you'll be able to take your warrior of light with you in your pocket, at least not for the time being. When asked by someone on Twitter if the game is already done, Ahmad further explained that it "should be close to done" but "it could be another 3 to 6 months before we hear about it from Square Enix."

You shouldn't be getting your hopes up over Dragon Age: The Veilguard releasing before October, because EA says that's the soonest it will be out. It's been 10 years since BioWare last put out a Dragon Age game, that particular title being Inquisition, with fans eagerly awaiting a sequel, with only the poorly received Mass Effect@ Andromeda, and the even worse received Anthem to fill the gaps in the meantime for those that'll play anything the developer makes. Dragon Age 4, then later titled Dragon Age: Dreadwolf, and more recently retitled to The Veilguard, was at the very least revealed in 2018. But that still begs the question: when the ***** is it coming out? It's supposedly out sometime in "fall" according to BioWare, which just about covers the end of September, but as spotted by Eurogamer, it appears that the game won't be out before October 1. This comes from EA itself, with the publisher now listing the upcoming sequel RPG as set to launch in its third financial quarter. For context, EA's first financial quarter of the year ended June 30, with its second ending September 30. Essentially, you can probably expect it out sometime between October and November, assuming there isn't any kind of delay (which wouldn't be all that surprising in this day and age). That isn't a precise release date, obviously, but it's better than nothing, right? Plus, it won't be all that long until you'll know exactly when it's releasing anyway.

It’s been a resurgence like no other for Enchantress in Dota 2, with the hero receiving a few huge boosts in the past couple of patches, and yet despite her success in pro play recently the hero just isn’t catching on in ranked play. What gives? Elite League Season Two wraps up later today, with this being the last look at a few Dota 2 teams ahead of The International in September. Among the top picks is Enchantress, who has recorded a solid 66 percent win rate from 42 picks according to stats site Spectral. Most teams want little to do with the support either; she’s been banned 66 times, making her one of the most contested heroes at the event. View the full article

The Team Liquid Counter-Strike 2 project copped heavy criticism at its end but dubious pundits have been silenced following the team’s explosive start to their season at BLAST Premier Fall Groups, which included back-to-back wins against world number one squad NAVI. The Twistzz-led outfit shocked NAVI—and the wider CS2 world—by booking an early ticket to the Fall Final after two 2-1 wins over the reigning Major champions this weekend. Liquid opened their BLAST ledger with a relatively clean 2-0 against Virtus.pro off the back of brilliant performances from ********* duo Twistzz and NAF before new Polish AWPer Roland “ultimate” Tomkowiak stepped up against NAVI in the upper bracket final.

Counter-Strike 2 has had its fair share of game-ruining bugs of late that Valve has quickly squashed, but a new glitch using a console command to hold the ***** after an attacker’s ****** has popped up this week threatening to spoil matches. The new CS2 console glitch was picked up by X/Twitter user @aquaismissing almost two weeks ago but went viral today after content creator dima_wallhacks showed off the exploit in a short clip. While holding the *****, dima_wallhacks tested the exploit by dropping a Molotov and grenade on himself, and after dying and before a teammate could collect the *****, entered a console command that allowed him to pick up the *****.

Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree's latest patch seriously shook up the ******* meta and modified some of my favorite toys: Mr. Market is bullish on the Backhand Blades, Rakshasa's Great Katana, and ****** Spot ash of war, but if you're still holding on to your Swift Slash stock, you'll want to sell now. A curious change made it into the patch with no mention in the notes, however: A fine wooden throne was quietly added to Rellana's boss room, the Ensis Moongazing Grounds. What could it mean?..

The video game industry has heavily relied on licensed titles to adapt popular franchises from movies, TV shows, and other media into interactive formats. However, the rush to cash in on a brand's popularity has led to the development of many disappointing modern licensed games, like Marvel's Avengers and The Lord of the Rings: Gollum. This highlights the importance of quality in game development, as these titles not only let down fans but also stained the reputation of the franchises they are based on. View the full article
