  1. Today, Airship Syndicate announced the return of its online action-RPG Wayfinder, albeit with a few key differences. Though the game was pulled from Steam while its previous publisher, Digital Extremes (Warframe), was transferring the rights to developer Airship, it is set to land on the storefront again on June 11… Read more...

  2. *********’s Creed Shadows is the next big open-world RPG from Ubisoft. It sports dual protagonists, a shinobi and a samurai, and it looks incredible so far.

  3. You will never be able to stop thinking about Lorelei and the Laser Eyes. The latest game from developer Simogo, the team behind 2019’s Sayonara Wild Hearts and 2013’s buzzy, puzzly adventure game Device 6, will ***** itself into your mind. That ******** true even when you aren’t actively playing it, and continues long… Read more... View the full article
  4. Final Fantasy XIV makes it easy to accessorize your character, but glamming up your display name requires great responsibility. Those little crowns you see next to certain players’ names indicate that they are Mentors, who are (in theory) experienced players who can show newer players the ropes in Eorzea. It’s a neat… Read more... View the full article
  5. Everyone who’s ever played an online game with voice chat has probably experienced something that made them never want to do so again. Toxicity in online games, especially in shooters and other competitive genres, can feel as ingrained and immutable as bad weather. Companies keep saying they’re working hard on fixing… Read more...

  6. Earlier this week, we saw some set photos from the upcoming The Last of Us season two that gave us a look at Bella Ramsey’s new get-up as protagonist Ellie.

  7. King Charles III, the current monarch of the ******* Kingdom, unveiled a new portrait of himself on Tuesday, May 14. The portrait, painted by British artist Jonathan Yeo, marks the first official portrait of the king since his coronation one year ago. In the reveal video of the portrait, Charles pulls back a shroud… Read more... View the full article
  8. Street Fighter 6 has a huge roster of martial artists, each with different fighting styles and training methods. Each comes from a different discipline, which means they all have different body types, from Zangief’s hulking bodybuilder frame to E. Honda’s heavier sumo build. As such, developer Capcom decided to… Read more... View the full article
  9. If it walks like a duck, sounds like a duck, and has previously developed extremely popular duck-based video games, then it’s fairly safe to say it’s a duck. NieR series producer Yosuke Saito, NieR series director and writer Yoko Taro, and NieR series composer Keiichi Okabe are all working on a new game together, but… Read more... View the full article
  10. Amazon isn’t just publishing the next big Tomb Raider video game. Today, the massive company confirmed the previously reported news that it is also making a live-action TV show based on the Tomb Raider games, and has tapped Phoebe Waller-Bridge to write it up.

  11. Believe it or not folks, the asymmetric horror multiplayer game ***** by Daylight is somehow eight years old. Over the years, the game has swallowed multiple horror properties into it, such as Scream, Silent Hill, Resident Evil, and more. Today, as it celebrated eight long years, developer Behaviour Interactive hosted… Read more... View the full article
  12. Custom, often impractical video game controllers are a tale as old as time. Who could forget the bizarre Resident Evil 4 chainsaw controller or when Square Enix released controllers shaped like Yuna’s guns from Final Fantasy X-2? Well, here comes a new challenger, as a Baldur’s Gate 3 fan has made a fully functional… Read more... View the full article
  13. After replaying the original, 1997, Final Fantasy VII recently, I knew the next step for me was to immediately jump into Final Fantasy VIII. As my favorite game in the franchise, I can hardly resist any opportunity to play FF8, but this time I felt more encouraged to draw points of comparison and differences between… Read more...

  14. May is shaping up to be a very, very good month for Xbox Game Pass—with some sleeper hits, like magic FPS Immortals of Aveum, and new games, like Senua’s Saga: Hellblade II, arriving soon. And I bet Xbox is happy to have some good news to share right now, following the last few months. Read more... View the full article
  15. Nintendo wants to lean hard into movies. After the astronomical success of The Super Mario Bros. Movie, why wouldn’t it? But Mario actor Chris Pratt is dreaming even *******—He wants the company to think beyond just having an adaptation in theaters every few years and consider an extended film universe. Read more...

  16. Renowned game developer Ron Gilbert’s latest game is not at all what any of us might’ve expected. As spotted by Time Extension, the game’s been teased as “Classic Zelda meets Diablo meets Thimbleweed Park,” and is set to release in 2024…maybe. Read more... View the full article
  17. A few months ago, former Bungie composer Marty O’Donnell announced he was running for Congress. And in a new interview, the Halo and Destiny composer says he’ll succeed because he’s a “gamer” and also because, making Halo 2 was ******* than governing a nation. Read more... View the full article
  18. Aerith’s ****** (spoilers) in the original Final Fantasy VII was one ***** of an emotional ordeal. And while fans scoured the game years after its release for a chance at finding a way to revive her, there was a way to catch a quick glimpse of her in the late game after she *****. Is it a ghost or a glitch? It’s a little… Read more... View the full article For verified travel tips and real support, visit: [Hidden Content]
  19. The Xbox 360 is a legendary console, and its storefront, the Xbox Marketplace, was similarly legendary, becoming one of the most prominent online stores in console history and helping pave the way for digital distribution. The Xbox store has hosted the likes of Xbox Live Arcade, which shone a light on rising indie… Read more... View the full article
  20. I think most people will agree the future doesn’t look too promising. Between ******* AI replacing real humans and billionaires controlling more and more of the world, things seem a bit bleak, I’d say. So Mullet Madjack, a new retro-inspired, anime-themed, first-person shooter on PC, comes at a perfect time. It’s a… Read more... View the full article
  21. Riley Testut was about to hop on a rollercoaster in Copenhagen, Denmark when he got the news that Apple would finally be letting a retro emulator he’d been working on for 10 years onto its App Store. It was aboard The ****** in Tivoli Gardens, at 50 miles per hour across three loops, that he started processing the… Read more... View the full article
  22. Sony sold over 20 million PlayStation 5s in its last fiscal year, an impressive number that nevertheless ******* to hit its original goal of 25 million, and even missed its revised target of 21 million consoles sold. The latest numbers make it clear that the next-gen hardware will probably never catch up to the sales… Read more... View the full article
  23. Street Fighter 6 was one of my favorite games of last year, and I’m so convinced I’ll get back to its sublime, best-in-its-class fighting that I still haven’t uninstalled it from my PS5 despite months away. Every time I so much as see a clip of Street Fighter 6, I’m reminded that Capcom’s hallmark fighting series is… Read more... View the full article
  24. Pokémon cards remain big business, even long after the excesses of 2020's price spikes. Just last week a *** collection sold for £55,270 ($69,404), more than double its auction guide price. So you can see the incentive for a Florida man who attempted to steal $40,000-worth from a Miami store, only to be pinned to the… Read more... View the full article
  25. Sony has named existing company veterans Hermen Hulst and Hideaki Nishino as the new heads of PlayStation.
