  1. 2024 was one of the quietest years for first-party PlayStation games since the PS5 launched. Instead of a God of War Ragnarök or Spider-Man 2, there were excellent but smaller releases like Astro Bot and Lego Horizon Adventures alongside the historic failure of Concord. And yet despite no aces in the hole, Sony won… Read more... View the full article
  2. I never thought I’d become a lapsed Overwatch 2 player, but that’s what I’ve been lately. I barely touched season 14, and that lack of interest was the culmination of years of stagnation and broken promises finally pushing me away. Yeah, Marvel Rivals also showed up and took my time, but even if Overwatch’s most… Read more... View the full article
  3. Grand Theft Auto 6's next trailer isn’t here yet, but Rockstar Games does have something GTA 6-related to share with you: An official Discord server where you can chat with thousands of other fans who can’t wait for the next entry in the series. Read more... View the full article
  4. Novelty popcorn buckets have become an almost essential piece of movie marketing in the last year. We can probably thank the Dune: Part Two bucket for this, made to look like one of its grody sandworms but, well, becoming famous for other reasons, as its virality is what got every movie exec looking for the next big… Read more...

  5. There were a few big games that helped round out the end of 2024, but none were quite as surprising as the indie horror title MiSide. The game follows a programmer who gets transported into his latest mobile game obsession and comes face to face with Mita, the character he’s been taking care of. Things start to get… Read more...

  6. I didn’t expect one of the best low-key rivalries in gaming to make a comeback in 2025, but here we are. Both *****’s Shinobi and Capcom’s Ninja Gaiden are getting 2D retro revivals this year, they’re each coming from great studios, and so far they look incredible. Read more... View the full article
  7. Diablo IV’s first expansion, Vessel of Hatred, arrived a year and change after the game launched. That won’t be the case for its next big content drop, however. Franchise boss Rod Ferguson revealed at DICE Summit 2025 in Las Vegas this week that Diablo IV’s second expansion will be arriving sometime in 2026. Read more... View the full article
  8. Avowed features plenty of commentary about empires, religion, colonization, war, progress, and other weighty matters. But what Avowed is really about, when you strip everything else away, is simple: Who are you loyal to? That’s the question at the heart of this new role-playing game. And more than any other element or… Read more... View the full article
  9. Whether you’re a kid or an adult young at heart, toys are one of life’s purest joys. Horror and fantasy movies pose a dark idea: What if thoes stuffed animals, Barbie dolls, blocks, or race cars, were scary instead of fun? Read more... View the full article
  10. While Game Pass hasn’t exactly shone in the last twelve months, one feature that still stood out (despitemore recently being locked behind the highest payment tier) is its day-one releases. Big-name games like Indiana Jones and Avowed, coming straight into your account the moment they’re available to buy. Sony has,… Read more... View the full article
  11. Today, February 12, 2025, Sony held its first State of Play showcase of 2025. There weren’t any massive surprises, but there were a ton of really neat-looking games that just might snag your attention. In particular, there was a good chunk of third-person melee action, typically featuring swords slashing up some… Read more... View the full article
  12. I knew Saros was a Housemarque game the second its protagonist said “but after every death I always come back stronger.” The Finnish studio behind Returnal and a host of excellent arcade shooters is back with new entry in the same genre scheduled for release on PlayStation 5 in 2026 and I already can’t wait.

  13. Today, during PlayStation’s latest State of Play event Sony announced that Days Goneis being remastered. This new, expanded, and improved version of the open-world zombie game will arrive on PS5 in April. Read more... View the full article
  14. The fall release calendar for 2025 is finally beginning to take shape. Borderlands 4 is the first into the breach with a launch planned for September 23. With Grand Theft Auto 6 also planned for a fall release, the window is rapidly closing for the year’s other major blockbusters to find a spot. Read more... View the full article
  15. Imagine driving down the road in your car and stopping at an intersection. The moment you do, an ad pops up on your dashboard, covering your GPS and forcing you to close it. Then you stop again and it happens again. And again. Well, that scenario has been happening to numerous Jeep owners recently and is a great… Read more... View the full article
  16. Each role has a purpose in Marvel Rivals. But many would agree that the Support-based Strategists are the most vital. No team will last long without someone to heal them and grant other buffs. So who to choose? Well, if you want to use one of the best support heroes in the game, you can’t go wrong with Luna Snow. Read more... View the full article
  17. Captain America: Brave New World, the latest Marvel Cinematic Universe movie, is releasing in theaters later this week and reviews for the flick have gone live online. The consensus? Not great! Read more... View the full article

In a 30-minute-long Spotlight presentation, the company revealed several changes and new modes, as well as a new hero coming to the hero shooter in 2025. You can watch the full presentation below,… Read more... View the full article
  19. After Playdead released Inside in 2016, co-founder Dino Patti split off from the critically acclaimed indie studio amid a messy business breakup and ultimately went on to create Jumpship, another small studio working on similarly eerie and evocative adventure games. That mission now has a chance to continue after… Read more... View the full article
  20. Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 does not mess around. Go on a ******* spree or cause too much wanton chaos and the game will take notice, unlocking one of its most secret and surprising endings in the process. Read more... View the full article
  21. Elden Ring Nightreign was one of last year’s most unexpected announcements.

  22. Keeping a frequent eye on the Pokémon Center’s new releases page is often the only way to buy some of its best offerings. Sometimes, by the time the press releases have been sent out, they’re already gone. That’s true of two of the new cosplay Pikachu plushies already! Read more... View the full article
  23. Quentin Tarantino makes films with his own legacy in mind. “I just don’t want to be an old-man filmmaker,” he said in a 2012 Playboy interview. “I want to stop at a certain point. Directors don’t get better as they get older. Usually the worst films in their filmography are those last four at the end. I am all about… Read more... View the full article
  24. Nintendo is currently the only console maker that makes you pay for a monthly subscription to access its classic games instead of letting you buy them a la carte. That needs to change with the Switch 2. Read more... View the full article
  25. Vanguards are Marvel Rivals’ version of Tanks, the characters that distract the enemy and soak the damage so your softer, more high-damage-dealing characters can focus on what they do best.
