With its release set for this May, Naughty Dog surely has their work cut out for them with The Last of Us Part II having to follow up one of the most acclaimed games of all time. With its original release in 2013, The Last of Us not only was a huge critical and commercial success, but
Month: February 2020
As a black gamer, there are very few examples of main protagonists in gaming that make me feel seen. When it comes to this generation alone, there are only two notable characters that I can think of: Lincoln from Mafia III and Marcus from Watch Dogs 2. There are also great black characters where their race doesn’t have
With its latest entry now at more than 5 million copies sold, the Luigi’s Mansion series has become another household name in Nintendo’s stable of franchises. Turns out it has also produced one of the company’s rarest pieces of memorabilia. Mario fan blog Supper Mario Broth posted pictures to Twitter late Thursday of a promotional
Since jumping into the publishing side of the industry, Team17 has put out hits like Overcooked!, Yoku’s Island Express, and My Time at Portia. Their next game is Bad Yolk’s Main Assembly, a game that meshes robot-building and physics-based gameplay. It boasts that classic Team17 charm and some nifty-looking building tools. Give the new trailer
It is no secret that WWE 2K20 was not up to snuff, even compared to its previous entries. However, it seems the game’s quality has definitely affected its expectations, both in sales and quality. During Take-Two Interactive’s third-quarter earnings call, Executive Chairman and CEO Strauss Zelnick discussed WWE 2K20‘s performance and their plans for the
While Super Smash Bros. Ultimate has finally allowed for many much-requested fighters such as Banjo & Kazooie, Ridley, and King K. Rool to finally join the fray, there are still quite a few others that have still been left out in the cold. One such character is that of Sora from Square Enix’s Kingdom Hearts series. Despite
If you thought the first Future Stars team added to FIFA 20 Ultimate Team last week was good, you haven’t seen anything yet. Team 2 adds some absolutely banging cards to the mix, especially with its top two players. On top of that, the new objective player is the cream of the Future Stars crop.
2018’s Mutant Year Zero: Road to Eden for PC, PS4, and Xbox One was a surprisingly good strategy game by The Bearded Ladies and Funcom. While publisher Funcom has had its eyes set on the Conan and Dune franchises since then, The Bearded Ladies unveiled what they have been working on since then: Corruption 2029.
Sony has received endless praise this console generation for the number of stellar first-party titles that it has released, and rightly so. Games like God of War, Horizon Zero Dawn, and Marvel’s Spider-Man stand as some of the most well-received from both critics and fans alike over the past few years. But for all of Sony’s success in
The Video Game Awards 2019 will be remembered by most as our first look at the Xbox Series X. However, for myself, it will be the year that one of my game dreams came true with the announcement of Bravely Default 2. As an avid fan of RPGs, particularly the turn-based Japanese variety, I quickly
Sony is once again what the best-selling games were in the prior month on PlayStation Blog. In this case, they are covering January 2020, which was a generally quiet month for game releases. Because of that, an evergreen game that continues to top sales charts was the best selling digital game: Grand Theft Auto V.
It’s 2011. Uncharted 3 made its way to store shelves just a month before, and it’s the night of the Spike Video Game Awards. The title I was the most looking forward to learning more about was The Last of Us. At the time, we had no details; not even a developer. There were rumblings that Naughty Dog
The road to Diablo Immortal’s release has been a rocky one, but we now have a better idea of when we can finally expect some players to gain access to the game.

It’s an exciting time to be an Animal Crossing fan. With the upcoming release of Animal Crossing: New Horizons and a new Switch coming out themed after the game, what’s not to look forward to? Well, losing your save for starters. Nintendo has already made it painfully clear that the newest Animal Crossing game will be given the same treatment as Splatoon
The success of Crash Bandicoot’s N. Sane Trilogy and Crash Team Racing: Nitro-Fueled has led many fans to believe that Activision has been priming gamers for a brand new game to the classic series. Activision’s CEO Bobby Kotick further fueled that thirst last August when he stated that there were “a lot of opportunities” to
Soon after officially confirming that the Fire Emblem Three Houses DLC includes exclusives Classes, the Fire Emblem Japanese Twitter account shared extensive details one of these Classes, the Trickster. First off, as you already know, the Three Houses DLC is a side story that includes four new characters, the Ashen Wolves. We learned today that
The Nintendo Switch is no stranger to video game ports. The ability to take AAA titles with you wherever you go has made the allure of porting old favorites incredibly tempting to consumers. It appears that Atlus may now be toying with the idea of bringing over their long-running Shin Megami Tensei, and spin-offs, to
Somewhere in the early aughts, there was this incredible resurgence of zombies in media. Whether it was movies like 28 Days Later (which debatably started this reinvigoration), comics like The Walking Dead, or games like Dead Rising, zombies were everywhere. It was really neat for a while, but like all good things, it inevitably became
The Final Fantasy VII Remake official Twitter accounts, both the English one and the Japanese one, tweeted a new key visual artwork for the game. It shows the initial party together.

Back in December, Take-Two Interactive and 2K Games announced that the fourth entry in the BioShock series was finally in the works at a new studio by the name of Cloud Chamber. There wasn’t much to say about the forthcoming BioShock title at the time (a formal name, release window, etc.) and now it seems that we
In what can only be considered the least surprising announcements ever, Activision has officially confirmed during their fourth-quarter 2019 conference call that we will be getting a brand new Call of Duty game later this year. Interestingly, however, the publisher DID NOT confirm which studio or studios are working on the title. While we usually
Capybara Games’ Below originally launched on PC and Xbox One. The tough-as-nails roguelike was met with mixed reviews critically; however, there was a lot there to admire.

Publisher Private Division announced
Six years ago at E3 2014, we were first introduced to Ori and the beautiful forest of Nibel. The original trailer for Ori and the Blind Forest perfectly foreshadowed the game’s emotional tone. It was clear, from Naru’s loving relationship with Ori, Gareth Coker’s divine composition, and the few platforming segments presented in the trailer, that
Earlier today, we reported on the new information that Ubisoft is planning to release five AAA games within its coming fiscal year which will start on April 1, 2020, and wrap up on March 31, 2021. While we had a good idea of what most of those games would end up being, it now seems
