  1. Grammy Award-winning producer Timbaland is going to make us listen to his AI music if it’s the last thing he does. Today it was announced that he will be launching a new AI entertainment company, Stage Zero, and introducing the world to his first AI-generated artist known as *****. Read more...

  2. Cyberpunk 2077 patch 2.1 arrived in December 2023. It seemed like the last major update the open-world RPG would get before CD Projekt Red moved onto other priorities, including a Cyberpunk sequel and The Witcher 4. Instead, the developers released patch 2.2 a year later that included new cars, character customization… Read more... View the full article
  3. I want to be excited for Persona 5: The Phantom X. I played about two hours of the game, and it’s got a lot of the staples of the RPG social sim fans know and love. It even adds a few new bells and whistles to the series’ turn-based combat, lending new dimensions to a typically straightforward system. However, mapping… Read more... View the full article
  4. The Switch 2 is more powerful than its predecessor and a lot *******, but can it take a beating? That’s what one YouTuber tried to find out, wasting absolutely no time before putting a stomach-churning beatdown on Nintendo’s new hardware. Read more... View the full article
  5. The Nintendo Switch 2 is all about iteration, opting to expand on what helped make the original Switch one of the best-selling consoles of all time. LIke before, the new console lets you switch between handheld and docked mode any time you see fit, giving you plenty of freedom in how you approach gaming sessions. So,… Read more...

  6. Nightreign’s Raider class is for anyone who just wants to beat ***** up. It’s the most straightforward class that focuses on pure damage output and nothing else. He has simple mechanics that are geared to give enemies as much of a hard time as possible. Read more... View the full article
  7. Boy howdy, there sure are a lot of video games suddenly getting September or October release dates. It’s almost like a very big video game that was expected to arrive around that time recently got delayed, and every publisher is trying to rush in and grab a release date ahead of the holiday season.

  8. This month’s State of Play presentation was a certified banger for PlayStation, with a ton of exciting games coming to the PlayStation 5 in the next year. Final Fantasy Tactics remaster? Check. The first look at IO Interactive’s James Bond origin story? Got it. But perhaps the biggest announcement was Marvel Tōkon:… Read more... View the full article
  9. Final Fantasy Tactics is a game about flawed people struggling against wave after wave of entrenched injustice and evil, hoping that at some point their small contributions might one day ripple outward to create a better world. It’s a message that the PS1 classic’s director says remains all too relevant ahead of a… Read more... View the full article
  10. You’ve conquered all of the other Nightlords. Now you’re ready to face the final challenge that Elden Ring Nightreign has in store: Heolstor the Nightlord. Read more... View the full article
  11. Magic: the Gathering’s Universes Beyond Final Fantasy set is almost upon us, with a scheduled release of June 13, 2025. However, if you simply can’t wait to collect or play with all your favorite characters and creatures from the legendary RPG series, you are in luck as this weekend, local game stores across the… Read more...

  12. It’s rare to see a tagline so perfectly summarize the heart of a show like, “We were safer in space.” FX’s sci-fi horror series Alien: Earthhas put out its first full trailer, and those two-and-a-half minutes set this up as a contender for the scariest show of 2025.

  13. Happy Nintendo Switch 2 launch day! Did you get one? Are you still waiting on a delivery? Hopefully it all works out for you, like it did for some folks who pre-ordered a Switch 2 via Walmart. Not only did their consoles arrive early in the morning, but they showed up with snacks and other goodies, too. Well, for some… Read more... View the full article
  14. As I write this, I’m in an Uber on my way to the airport to fly to Los Angeles for Summer Game Fest. Odds are, there wasn’t really going to be a good window for me to use my Switch 2 if it had showed up on time, but this doesn’t change my disappointment that it still has not arrived at my home in New York City. I… Read more... View the full article
  15. The original Switch version of open-world superhero game Batman: Arkham Knight is a giant technical mess, featuring massive performance problems that make it borderline unplayable in many sections. But on Switch 2, things are much better, with some caveats. Read more... View the full article
  16. Mario Kart World features a massive map to explore full of puzzles, challenges, and other quests to complete. Players can wander around it to their hearts content in Free Roam mode. But they won’t be able to do it with a friend sitting next to them. Unlike the rest of the Switch 2 exclusive’s game modes, this one… Read more... View the full article
  17. Of everything that came out of yesterday’s PlayStation State of Play, the thing that’s stuck with me—in all the worst ways—is the announcement of Thief VR. Thief is, on most days, my favorite gaming series (it’s Deus Ex on the others). The idea of getting a new game in the franchise, even after the woefully irrelevant … Read more...

  18. Imagine you were up at midnight to pre-order the Switch 2. You waited months for the official launch day. Then you waited again in line at midnight to be one of the first to pick it up and play the new Nintendo hardware. But as you open it, the long-awaited moment of joy turns to horror as you find that someone… Read more... View the full article
  19. Recluse is one of the Nightreign’s magic-based classes, and she’s arguably the most complex character to master. When played right, Recluse is an absolute killer, able to take down enemies and bosses with relative ease. Read more... View the full article
  20. For the past 20 years, the Money In The Bank briefcase has become one of the WWE’s most powerful narrative tools the company has in its arsenal. In a few days, the legacy continues as the two wrestlers will be the 38th and 39th MITB winners to join a long history of opportunists. Read more... View the full article
  21. Today, Sony held its latest State of Play and while it didn’t include some of the ******* games that people were likely hoping for, like a new God of War spin-off, it did include some cool suprirses, including what might be the best-looking fighting game I’ve seen in years and a remake of beloved Final Fatnasy title.

  22. Today, during Sony’s big State of Play, IO Interactive revealed a new trailer for its upcoming James Bond game, 007 First Light. The big news out of the trailer is the first official reveal of the game’s new James Bond, which you can see in the image above. Read more... View the full article
  23. The rumors were true: Final Fantasy Tactics is getting a remake on modern platforms. The incredible PlayStation 1 strategy RPG will be graphically overhauled so new audiences can fall in love with its meaty combat systems and tragic storytelling all over again this September.

  24. I’m nervous. We missed two churches and lost a level in the mines. The Gaping Jaw Nightlord is weak to poison but no poison weapons spawned on the map. I spent my final runes on hitting level 12. We’re cooked. Oh my god why are we watching the final cutscene before the boss encounter AGAIN. Read more... View the full article
  25. AMC, the largest theater chain in the United States, will soon start showing even more commercials before the start of a movie. This is on top of the usual 20 minutes of trailers and ads already shown before most films. Read more... View the full article
