Sindel’s inclusion in Mortal Kombat 11 has been teased for months, but we’ve barely seen her.

Fortunately, we won’t have to wait much longer to see her in action as NeatherRealm Studios’ Creative Director
Love it or hate it, Rockstar Games’ Red Dead Redemption 2 is one of the most ambitious and graphically stunning games to ever release. With the PC version, players were probably hoping to get to play the cowboy simulator at the highest quality possible. Instead, it has been marred by a slew of technical issues.
Hi-Rez Studios’ SMITE remains an incredibly popular MOBA and is supported with consistent updates to this day, even as the company introduces new games like Rogue Company. The latest battle pass for SMITE is one of the most notable in a long time as Rooster Teeth’s popular show RWBY has taken over the battle pass’ contents.
In the days since Death Stranding has released, we’ve started to get a better picture of how the game has been selling in various regions around the world.

When I first heard about Doraemon Story of Seasons, I definitely thought it’d be a good idea. The game’s atmosphere, music and art direction all mix both the worlds of Doraemon and Story of Seasons in the best way possible. You can tell the developers at Studio Brownies, led by ex-Mana series artist Shinichi Kameoka,
Stardew Valley is an incredible throwback to Harvest Moon games of old that lit the indie scene on fire when it released in 2016. With a massive success on his hands, developer Eric “ConcernedApe” Barone could have done pretty much anything he wanted. It turns out, he wanted to make Stardew even better. In the
Prior to the launch of the PS5 and Xbox Scarlett next year, it seems as though Grand Theft Auto and Red Dead Redemption developer Rockstar Games is looking to beef up its current staff. Over on Rockstar’s website, a variety of new jobs just appeared for the studio’s office in the UK known as Rockstar North. Over
Ever since its introduction almost one year ago, the Epic Games Store has been a controversial storefront. While it lacks some of the features of a platform like Steam, it has courted developers and publishers with enticing deals to make their games exclusive and a better revenue split. Some people see this approach as unfair
I played a fair amount of Death Stranding this weekend. I delivered a whole lot of packages, I threw some poop grenades at some oil-whale-things, and I maxed out my social link with Geoff Keighley. I also smashed a Monster Energy drink or two with my own version of Sam Porter Bridges and I gotta admit
One of the big benefits of being an EA Access member is the timed early access period (a.k.a. Play First Trial) for the publisher’s new games. With Respawn’s single-player Star Wars game arguably being EA’s biggest game of the year, surely, it would be part of this service. Unfortunately, the Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order
We have known about Wattam, the latest game from Katamari Damacy creator Keita Takahashi, for some time.

With Monday coming in hot, we’ve seen the latest UK physical sale charts arrive.

Death Stranding is certainly causing quite the discourse online. Players are going through the game and noticing small details, laughing at certain choices such as going to the toilet standing or sitting down, and enjoying or disliking the vast hiking experience.

It looks like there may be a new promotion on the horizon for new Xbox Game Pass users as Neowin has reported that it received a tip showing a “string” from messaging service Discord indicating a new promotion.

A promising Kickstarter for a promising 2D platformer, with a pedigree of being worked on by one of the main Sonic Mania developers, tragically couldn’t find its success story. Vertebreaker was an upcoming hopeful that mixed fun looking 2D 16-bit graphics with Sega Genesis-like sound and style. Unfortunately the campaign only raised 5 percent of
Hideo Kojima, the director of both the Metal Gear Solid franchise and his latest IP Death Stranding, has received a pair of interesting awards from an unlikely source: The Japanese Guinness World Records. Kojima was given twin awards for having the most Twitter followers (at the time of certification total was 2,813,385) and the most
It always surprises me when a live game, like League of Legends or World of Warcraft, can manage to keep its audience with new content that actually alters how the game is played. It may not be on the same scale, but Rainbow Six Siege is one of these games that reinvigorates the formula constantly,
At the Rainbow Six Pro League Finals in Japan, the next content update for Rainbow Six Siege titled Operation Shifting Tide has been revealed.

The wizards at Stree Level Zero have been keeping fans up-to-date with their excellent-looking, physics-based VR title Boneworks.

Where the Water Tastes Like Wine is Dim Bulb Games’ well-regarded narrative adventure through Depression-era America. The game launched on PC in 2018 to solid reviews; however, it did not perform nearly as well commercially. Of course, the hope is that by bringing the game to more platforms, they can increase sales even more. If
