There was a situation earlier this year that made everyone question whether the Google Stadia version of Terraria would ever see the light of day. Now, the Terraria Stadia port is officially on its way. After much turmoil and discussion, it seems like Terraria finally got the all-clear to launch on Google Stadia. However, there’s still quite some history between

Originally launched back in 2011, Portal 2 is one of the critically acclaimed puzzle games of seventh generation of consoles and one of the Valve’s greatest IPs. For a single-player game, it would seem odd to receive a brand new update after ten years, but Portal 2 update 2021 is real and it brings some
Animal Crossing: New Horizons has been a sales juggernaut since its release. The island living sim had sold 26 million copies when Nintendo last released their figures and that was before it had graced a holiday season. Nintendo’s latest set of sales figures were released today and surprising nobody, New Horizons has continued to fly.
Earlier in the month, Bloomberg published a story that detailed how Microsoft had attempted to purchase Nintendo many years ago. When the discussions occurred, Nintendo apparently laughed Microsoft out of the room, according to Kevin Bachus, Xbox’s former director of third party relations. During the same interview, Robbie Bach, former president of the entertainment and
Historically, PlayStation’s DualShock and now DualSense series of controllers have always used an inbuilt rechargeable battery, whereas, at least since the Xbox 360, the Xbox controller range has had the option for AA batteries. Allowing replaceable batteries gives the player options, and Microsoft the opportunity to make a few more dollars by selling their own
All good things must come to an end. It looks like online services will be coming to a close for Halo on Xbox 360 in December of 2021. Announced via Halo Way Point, 343 shared that the studio will begin to sunset Halo Xbox 360 services to fully focus on the future of the franchise
Xbox is currently undergoing one of its biggest game sales this year. This week is the Ultimate Game Sale where titles are up to 65% off giving some incredible deals right now if you’re an Xbox owner. For those with Xbox Live Gold, you can save an additional 10% on select titles making them even
It’s been 13 years since the last true Def Jam game. 13 years too long. It seems like Def Jam Recordings — or at least the person behind their Twitter account — agrees. Monday night, the official Def Jam Records Twitter account posted a screenshot of the Def Jam: Fight For NY character select screen with
After a short break due to a wild summer of video games so far, we’re back with our next iteration of our ongoing “Making a Video Game Hero” series. Thus far, we’ve tackled the Action-Adventure, Platformer, and Sports genres. Today, we dip our toes into the shooter side of things. Now, usually these experiments have
For me, Rare is one of my favourite developers of all time, who have created some of my favourite games. The British studio has just turned 35, after forming back in 1985, and has decided to celebrate the milestone with a gift to their fans. Revealed via a Tweet and subsequent blog post, Rare has
Take-Two Interactive recently reported its financial performance during the first quarter of the fiscal year 2021, sharing new data on the sales of the Grand Theft Auto V, Red Dead Redemption 2, and all the other titles from its different branches in the world.

No More Heroes 3 is now deep in development. The game was announced at E3 last year and has since been shown off by creator Suda51 in the sneakiest of manners. Aside from the brief glimpse of the game though, No More Heroes 3 news has been slightly hard to come by recently. In lieu
This afternoon, Microsoft announced the suite of games available to Xbox Live Gold and Game Pass Ultimate subscribers for the month of August. This comes following widespread rumors that Microsoft might be pulling the plug on Xbox Live or that it might be absorbed into Game Pass after Microsoft pulled 1-year Xbox Live Gold pre-paid
Even though games have come a long way since running on 512MB of RAM and using cartridges as a preferred format, hardware still defines what a game can be. For games on PC, that’s a quite literal definition — you can find the PC requirements of most titles sold on Steam right on their store
NBA 2K21 current-gen cover boy Damian Lillard is pulling double-duty this year. Not only is he a major player in the on-court action, but he’s also joining the game’s soundtrack with two unreleased tracks. One of the game’s marquee guards, Lillard is also a successful recording artist. So, it makes sense for him to drop
While Marvel might be the king of superheroes at the box office, DC and Batman are clearly giving their video game sales a run for their money. Twitter user Timur222 discovered through the LinkedIn profile of a Warner Bros’ employee that the sales of Rocksteady’s Batman: Arkham City reached a whopping 12.5 million copies sold and
The Xbox Series X is around the corner, and we still don’t know a ton about it — what is the price going to be? What colors will the console come in? When can I buy it? And while those questions remain unanswered, content creators and fans are busy mocking up their own dream consoles.
It’s undisputed that Halo 3 was a pretty big game-changer when it released in 2007. It capped off a now-legendary trilogy of games, bringing with it technology that would influence some of the best first-person shooters for years to come. Even now, almost 13 years after the launch of Halo 3, I still find new
What is Phil Spencer up to? Recent eagle-eyed fans have noticed that Microsoft Store has quietly removed the option to purchase 12-month subscriptions to Xbox Live Gold. With a few months away from the launch of Xbox Series X, it seems like a strikingly anti-consumer move — making Xbox gamers purchase more costly 3-month or
The time has finally come — after sustained criticism from developers, publishers, and dedicated fans, Metacritic has changed their user review system to prevent review bombing. Following blowback following the release of Naughty Dog’s flagship PS4 title, The Last of Us Part 2, Metacritic implemented a new system prohibiting fans from reviewing titles within 36 hours
The Scott Pilgrim franchise has been beloved for years across several different mediums, from the original series of graphic novels to the acclaimed 2010 film starring Michael Cera.

As the leaks and rumors have suggested for quite some time, Microsoft has been developing a second Xbox that will be cheaper and less powerful then the Xbox Series X codenamed Lockhart.

Ah, the sequel. It is inevitable nowadays that any successful product will eventually get a sequel. Video games, movies; hell, even the Big Mac got a sequel. Technically a prequel too with the Junior Mac. It is just something that is unavoidable. Studios want the dream of something like a Star Wars or Lord of
I started playing the Fallout games about a decade ago. My first experience with the series was playing Fallout 3 when I was 14. I got the game through Gamefly, and admittedly, I sent it back pretty quick – the feral ghouls got me spooked. But eventually, I revisited the game, realized ghouls were easy
Thus far, these lists have been relatively easy to put together. After all, whether you’re platforming in 2D or 3D, you’re still jumping around. Action-adventure is a little murkier, but even there, you basically know what you’re getting yourself into. However, when trying to build the ultimate sports game star, we ran into some obvious
It’s no secret whatsoever that The Witcher franchise has been a massive success for CD Projekt Red over the past 10-plus years. Originally debuting in 2007, The Witcher has since gone on to spawn two sequels, with the third installment, Wild Hunt, proving to be the most successful of the bunch. Now, CD Projekt Red has announced
When you hear the term “immersive sim,” Arkane Studios is usually the first studio to come to mind.
