Hogwarts Legacy players disappointed by the inability to play as a "mean" character shouldn't miss out on some key interactions as one fan points out the best way to be a real bully. While Portkey Games' expansive open-world RPG does provide an authentic recreation of the ever-popular Wizard World, it's debatable how successful it is when it comes to role-playing. Despite a massive map and plenty of character customization, the game is largely insistent that players are, at the very least, polite, but that all goes out the window when one specific NPC is around.

It’s looking like the troubled Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time Remake has lost one of its most important assets: Yuri Lowenthal, the voice actor who played the prince, famously narrated the entirety of the original 2003 game, and is currently renowned for playing Peter Parker’s Spider-Man in the excellent Insomniac games. Yesterday, Tom Henderson, currently one of the most trusted voices in gaming leaks, reported that you should “forget everything you know” about the Prince of Persia remake — and revealed that Lowenthal would no longer be in the role. Ubisoft would not tell me whether he’s still attached to the project; Lowenthal’s agent said he can’t comment because he’s under an NDA. Those non-denials are not confirmation, but...

Pokémon Sleep is pulling the plug on older Android devices, and the game will no longer be supported on devices with Android 7 or lower. As stated by the developer, the reason for this change is to “create new features for a continually updated game,” thus, stopping the support is a way to introduce more potential features that are only supported by higher-end devices. Pokémon Sleep shook the gaming industry with an innovative playstyle where you could sleep and catch your Pokémon in the game. Upon waking up, you will receive different Pokémon based on your sleeping habits. View the full article
Every major update in Marvel Snap includes information about future cards and seasons, and the April 2024 update was no different, revealing what’s coming in two months. The April 10, 2024 update was data-mined by sites like [Hidden Content] and many others, and has shown what Snap players can expect for the June 2024 season. It stars the members of a comic book team that had their own MCU movie that people apparently didn’t like very much. View the full article
It’s not uncommon these days that a game gets overshadowed in a busy release season. Sometimes game release dates just happen to overlap, and in an era of ballooning AAA prices and ever-expanding length to justify those price tags, there’s only so much time and attention to go around.The latest victim of this phenomenon is Children of the Sun, a phenomenal puzzle game where a nameless girl wages a one-woman war against a strange cult armed with only a single bullet in her ******* rifle. After the bullet hits a target, whether that be the brain of an unsuspecting cultist, the gas tank of a car, or any other environmental hazard, she can redirect it in any direction, ultimately clearing entire encampments with just a single shot. Screenshot: PC InvasionIt sounds simple on paper, but several environmental factors and unique abilities make Children of the Sun one of the most inventive puzzle/shooter hybrids in recent memory. On top of that, the game is dripping with ...View the full article
The good news is that Diablo 4 players adored the Season 4 PTR. The bad news is that Diablo 4 fans would rather play the PTR now more than Season 3.Diablo 4 Season 4 PTR made players upset to return to Season 3After playing eight days of the Diablo 4 Season 4 PTR, fans are already wishing that they could return to playing the PTR instead of going back to Season 3.

Image: Prime Video In making successful video game adaptations, it feels more important to strike the right tone rather than follow the source material to the letter. “Tone” in Fallout is Walton Goggins’ ********-soaked cowboy drawl ripped straight from the age of Gary Cooper and John Wayne extolling the virtues of bucolic Vault-Tec living with a sign that says “Test Subjects” just a touch off-screen. In other words: perfection. Image: Amazon Studios Fallout strikes such a pitch-perfect tone and its vibes are so postapocalyptically immaculate, that it doesn’t really matter what story the show is trying to tell. Something about a daughter (Ella Purnell) looking for her kidnapped father (Kyle MacLachlan), a high-value scientist (Michael... Continue reading… View the full article

For over two years the Steam Deck has transformed how we interact with our game libraries. We can now play some of our favorite games wherever we like, with more convenience than a gaming laptop and more power than other traditional handhelds like the Nintendo Switch.

It may seem like nothing is original anymore. When watching the Triple-i Initiative, I wasn’t holding out hope for many original and new ideas. Until Dinolords came around.Sure, dinosaurs and Vikings aren’t exactly original concepts. But Vikings riding dinosaurs? What?Dinolords mixes Vikings and dinosaurs to the admiration of every young boyWhen I was a child, I had a pretty solid list of things that were “cool.” Dinosaurs and Vikings certainly made that list, and now I get to play with both in the same game as an ******. Very cool.Image: NorthplayOutside of the ridiculous and hilarious concept of dinosaurs and Vikings, Dinolords looks like a pretty solid RTS game of developing a castle and community whilst under siege by the Danes (Vikings) in 11th-century England. Dinolords isn’t the first to make an RTS game set in medieval times, so I’m looking forward to how it’s mechanically different and exciting (if you ignore the din...View the full article

Art from the Monopoly mobile game produced by Marmalade Game Studio. | Image: Marmalade Game Studio / Hasbro Monopoly — a board game about forcing people into bankruptcy by buying up as much real estate as possible — does not seem like something that would make for an entertaining cinematic escape from reality, but Lionsgate plans to test that theory. Variety reports that a Monopoly movie is in the works at Lionsgate that will be produced by Margot Robbie’s LuckyChap — the same outfit that backed Birds of Prey, Barbie, and Saltburn. In a statement about the new film, Lionsgate film head Adam Fogelson expressed his confidence in LuckyChap’s “clear point of view” on the Monopoly IP and excitement about the possibility of the game becoming another blockbuster for the production outfit.

The first showcase took place earlier today, and it was 45 minutes packed with announcements. There were big names like Prince of Persia and Palworld, as well as titles ranging from medieval strategy games (with dinosaurs) to futuristic action games... Continue reading… View the full article

Later this year, Blizzard Entertainment will launch a new game mode within WoW called WoW Remix that will breathe life into the Mists of Pandaria expansion, allowing players to re-experience it in full with a few twists.
