Genshin Impact players finally narrow down the Primogem count for Version 4.7, revealing that the update adds up to a lot more Intertwined Fates than was initially expected. Though open world exploration in Genshin Impact is one of its biggest strengths, the main appeal for most players has always been its colorful cast of characters. This ever-growing roster has added plenty of fan favorites in Fontaine, such as Furina, Neuvillette, and Arlecchino. However, Version 4.7 is expected to have a star-studded cast on the Event Banners, which will demand a hefty sum of Primogems from a majority of Genshin Impact players. View the full article
After claiming Ubisoft purposefully creates controversies around their games to disguise their steep pricing scheme, Asmongold has come under ***** from some of the company’s fans. One X user in particular, after celebrating the passing of YouTuber twomad, wished the same upon Asmongold, who has now responded. The streamer weighed in on the situation surrounding Ubisoft’s upcoming game, *********’s Creed: Shadows. He claimed that Ubisoft purposely creates discourse and controversy so players’ attentions aren’t focused on the company’s sharp prices, which often go to $130 for ultimate editions of its games.

Image: John William Evelyn “I couldn’t walk away from the pen and ink thing,” says John Evelyn, creator of The Collage Atlas, a dreamlike storybook adventure recently released on Steam. The entire game is hand drawn, from tiny flowers and insects to huge buildings and the clouds that float over them. Exploring this world unwraps its dreamlike story, with environments folding out in response to your approach. “I had been drawing for many years before that […] and I’d always draw with ink straight away, without any kind of prior pencil work or sketching,” he says. “I liked all the incidental details and the accidents that come out along the way.” He compares it to improv music — “actually, sometimes it goes horribly wrong!” — but says that the feeling of getting...

Rockstar is slowly gearing up for Grand Theft Auto 6's release, and as it does so, some new details about co-founder Dan Houser's new game have been confirmed. Back in 2020, Houser left Rockstar 22 years after founding the company, revealing his new studio Absurd Ventures in Games the following year. The company was described as providing "ready-made interactive leisure and entertainment software development," and since its announcement, not much has been confirmed in the way of what it's actually working on. Well, as spotted by GamesRadar, we do now have some details on the studio's first game, thanks to some recent job listings. The listing for a lead gameplay designer role noted that the role will see the selected candidate become "the primary vision holder and hands-on contributor for character, controls, and camera design in an open world action-adventure game." It also makes mention of the role needing to deliver "best-in-class combat and third person action across multiple game modes" so it sounds like the game might not just be a single-player title. Following this, Absurd Adventures announced its first project, which isn't actually a game at all, but an audio fiction series called A Better Paradise, a sci-fi story "set in the near future" that "tells the story of the ill-fated development of an ambitious but addictive digital game-world project led by inventor and psychologist, Dr. Mark Tyburn."

***** might have cancelled Hyenas, but you shouldn't count Creative Assembly out just yet, as it's reportedly working on a Total War Star Wars game next. Last year, ***** announced it was cancelling Hyenas as part of some "structural reforms", a move that felt like a real shame for a game that didn't even have the chance to get its foot out the door. A couple of months later, ***** then made it seem like Creative Assembly was back doing what it knows best, which is making real-time strategy games like the Total War series. Now, a new report from DualShockers appears to have shed some light on just what Creative Assembly is working on. According to a "reliable source" that spoke with DualShockers, Creative Assembly is currently working on three new Total War games, with one of them being an officially licensed Star Wars title. Star Wars would honestly be a pretty great fit for a series like Total War, given the broad range of factions it has had across all of its media. Details in DualShocker's report about the game are slim, only noting that "it's possible that Creative Assembly is gearing up to release Total War: Star Wars in the next couple of years," but there's no precise timeline as to when it could come out. The report notes that as of October 2023, the Star Wars entry was the second of the three new Total War games in the works. Since 2014, apart from 2021, Total War has been an annual series, with the most recent entry being Total War: Pharoah, so the Star Wars entry being released within the next couple of years does seem feasible.

The first trailer for the ***** Cells animated series is here, and it's looking like one of the most exciting video game adaptations to date. I've not actually played much ***** Cells, I know it's high up there in the pantheon of roguelikes for many out there, but you know, there's just a whole lot of games out there, so where am I meant to fit it in? But earlier this week the first trailer for the animated adaptation of the beloved indie game, ***** Cells: Immortalis, dropped, and I'm thinking I'll have to make time for it. The trailer is a short one, only running for around a minute and a half, but it packs a whole lot into the limited amount of time it does have. Right off the bat I should note that it's going for its own artstyle different from the one used in the game's animated trailer, though it is made by the same animation studio, Bobbypills. You will have to read some subtitles as the trailer is dubbed in French, but an English version is expected later this year. The ***** Cells series is out next soo too, next month actually, on June 19, where it will be available on the streaming service Animation Digital Network. This is a French streaming service, to be clear, and there doesn't seem to be word on where else it will be available just yet, so you might have to wait a while before you can check it out in other territories.

The official Elden Ring Twitter account has dropped a new look at one of Shadow of the Erdtree's many terrible monsters, and the Bloodborne vibes are very strong. Much like every other Bloodborne fan under the sun, I too am bitter that it never got a sequel. Given the fact there's only one of them, it still stands as one of FromSoftware's most unique games, and even now I hold out hope we'll get another, even if that is entirely misguided. Luckily for me, Elden Ring had a touch of Bloodborne vibes here and there, what with the occasional Eldritch horror the RPG contained and all. Think bosses like Astel Naturalborn of the Void - you can't convince me it wouldn't fit in perfectly with Bloodborne's boss fights. And thanks to a newly shared image from the official Elden Ring Twitter, it seems like those Bloodborne vibes will stretch into Shadow of the Erdtree above. You can see in the tweet above what this new monster looks like, and uh, yeah, the vibes are truly and wonderfully effed on this one. Anyone with an ounce of biology knowledge can probably tell what the specific posing of who or whatever this is is referring to, a perfect fit for Bloodborne's themes. It also looks like it could truly mess you up with those blades, so I'm looking forward to dying to it 30 times in a row. Read more View the full article
Dragon Ball: Sparking! ZERO has fans of the franchise hyped for a return to the Budokai Tenkaichi style of gameplay, and thanks to a small datamine this week, we might be gearing up for a familiar release window too.

But, while the community expects a ******* announcement for the game is coming soon, a dataminer may have discovered the release date ahead of time. View the full article
It’s only natural that every developer wants their game to become popular. You certainly have to be careful what you wish for, though; not all popularity comes via word-of-mouth, and in the gaming world, a title destined for the scrap heap might go viral for the worst reasons. Fans gathered to discuss the unlikely champions of gaming history in a May 17 Reddit thread. Sometimes unintended success is a good thing, like in the case of GoldenEye 007 and its famous split-screen multiplayer which was added at the last minute without the consent of Rare or Nintendo according to a 2018 Vice interview with programmer Steve Ellis. It’s almost unbelievable a game mode that forever changed the first-person shooter genre barely made it into the game, much less without the permission of the publisher. View the full article
