There’s been a bit of a commotion this week surrounding Borderlands 3 and actor Troy Baker, who just a few days ago talked about how seemingly unhappy he was that he wouldn’t be reprising the role of Rhys who originally appeared in Telltale’s Tales from the Borderlands. While Baker seemed to lay the blame at Gearbox’s feet,

It’s taken a long time to come about, but Ubisoft is finally developing Beyond Good and Evil 2.

Developer DONTNOD Entertainment and publisher Focus Home Interactive have announced that they will be again working together on a new “ambitious” project. The details of the project are scarce, but, given DONTNOD’s track record, it’s probably safe to assume the game will be narrative heavy. The two French studios previously worked together on Vampyr, a PC,
The Messenger is one of my favorite games from last year as it is so cleverly designed both from a gameplay and story standpoint. What seemed like a cool gimmick with the instantaneous 8-bit to 16-bit transitions becomes a story point that adds both Metroidvania and light puzzle-solving elements to what was seemingly just a Ninja Gaiden
Microsoft has today announced details on the next edition of Inside Xbox, which is set to take place just around the corner.

Ubisoft first unveiled the UbiArt Framework engine in 2010, and it has since led to several beautiful looking games.

Earlier today, Destiny 2 players on Xbox One and PC began noticing that they were able to get their hands on a PlayStation 4-exclusive weapon called the Wavesplitter, much to fans excitement. Of course, since gamers can’t have anything nice in this world (sarcasm, of course), this turned out to be a major bug that’s been
If you were hoping to hope in with one other friend in Call of Duty: Black Ops 4’s Blackout mode earlier this morning, then you would have found yourself out of luck. Earlier today, Treyarch sneakily removed the Duos playlist from the battle royale mode and, understandably, fans weren’t too happy. According to Treyarch, the developer removed the
Following the tragic closure of Telltale Games last fall and development that shifted hands over to the StillNotBitten team at Skybound Games, The Walking Dead: The Final Season finally brought the story of Clementine to a bittersweet close.

While there are a lot of similarities between both Rage and DOOM–same developers, publishers, similar shooting style, etc.–it seems that the upcoming Rage 2 will contain a more direct callback to DOOM. In a new video courtesy of IGN, it was revealed that the BFG 9000, the iconic demon-killing weapon that you can utilize in DOOM, will also be present in Rage
A little over four years after releasing, Pearl Abyss has today announced a remarkable new milestone for the MMORPG franchise Black Desert.

I’m a huge fan of horror films but, for whatever reason, horror games have never really clicked with me. I can’t exactly pinpoint why that is. I tend to get tired of the repetitive trial and error nature of first-person games in the genre. However, I found my short time with Layers of Fear 2 to be
2,000 straight days is right around five and a half years. Imagine working for that long with no weekends, no sick days, and no vacation. Heck, you don’t even get holidays. Sounds unbearable, but Twitch streamer CohhCarnage did exactly that. This titan of endurance played games every day for his growing Twitch audience. During those
Sniper Elite V2 Remastered was revealed for PC, PS4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch last month alongside Sniper Elite 3 Ultimate Edition for Switch, Sniper Elite VR, and a new mainline Sniper Elite game.

I remember the first time I played a Phoenix Wright game. It was back during a time where my local mall had both a GameStop and an EB Games. My pal Alex had been recommending this game where you play as a lawyer for quite some time. My parents had just reneged on letting me

Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice has been the talk of the video game industry over the past few weeks, for better or worse. The excitement around the latest FromSoftware action game though was so great for one fan though that they opted to create a real version of the game’s iconic prosthetic arm. In a recent
Of all the games I got to check out at PAX East a couple of weeks back, Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night was easily the title I was most looking forward to playing. Having already tried it out a few years back at E3 2017, I was curious to see how development on the long-awaited Kickstarter
