It’s been nearly a year since Animal Crossing: New Horizons took us away from a world of stress to a relaxing island getaway.

When thinking about the best online multiplayer shooters, Counter-Strike: Global Offensive is one of the first games people remember. Despite launching nearly ten years ago, the game’s player base was well over 23 million in January of this year. Thanks no doubt to its spot as a pillar of eSports, it clearly still has a devoted
It’s been an exciting few weeks for Animal Crossing: New Horizons fans.

Apex Legends has been one of the big names in the battle royal gaming bubble since it released back in 2019. Holding a solid and rapidly growing player base, the game has been a big hit for Respawn Entertainment. Today, a patch was issued for the game, but it’s a little unclear as to what the

Yesterday’s Nintendo Direct had a lot of surprises. Although many people were upset about the lack of Zelda and Metroid news, I thought that, overall, it had some exciting announcements. Skyward Sword, Splatoon 3, and even the Switch edition of Fall Guys all have me excited for what’s to come. However, as a big fan of detective games, I was very
It’s hard to believe that EverQuest is still around, but the fact that it is makes me happy.

It’s no secret that Animal Crossing: New Horizons is wildly popular. It’s a game full of events corresponding with real-world dates so it acted as a stand-in for a lot of canceled holidays in 2020 as a result of the pandemic.

I think it’s safe to say that Persona 5 Strikers is one of DualShockers’ most anticipated games of the year. Now that reviews are out and saying that the game is a worthy sequel to 2017’s Persona 5, the hype is real. For those of us who haven’t preordered it yet or are waiting until release
