After Bungie opted to part ways with Microsoft and the Halo franchise following the release of Reach, there were many questions about the future of the Halo series.

Last October, Capcom revealed that it would be porting Resident Evil 4, Resident Evil 0, and the Resident Evil Remake to Nintendo Switch. All we got then was a vague 2019 release window, and we haven’t heard much since. That all changed today though, as Capcom took to Twitter in order to unveil the release

Despite the victory, the first reported physical sales for Anthem may be raising some
It’s no surprise that when Respawn Entertainment’s new Battle Royale launched earlier this month, there were a lot of players deciding on playing Apex Legends or Epic Games’ hugely popular Fornite. Whatever game you decide to play is fair enough, however, the popularity of Apex Legends hasn’t gone unnoticed it seems. Fortnite developer Epic Games often runs a Reddit Q&A, the most recent
I’ve always loved the Trials series. It’s fun, goofy ragdoll physics combined with the challenging but not disparaging gameplay always makes for a fun time. When I was able to get my hands on an early version of Trials Rising at E3 2018, I noted that all of the above aspects were still present, but I was worried that it
We really do love Mads Mikkelsen and The Witcher‘s Geralt here at DualShockers, so having both morphed into one place can cause more excitement than teenagers at a Justin Bieber concert.

From Reddit user Jachael123_, using the power of video editing software, a whole lot of creativity, and tons of time,
Red Dead Redemption 2 was one hell of a game. I don’t think there have ever been so many hidden secrets or whatever you want to call them in any video game I have ever played. Whether it is how Arthur Reacts to his longtime horse dying or even having to clean your rifles from
It’s been a busy time for Metro Exodus this year, and it’s certainly not over as more review bombings have taken place…although a more positive review bombing. If you’re unaware, or just fancy a recap, earlier this year Metro Exodus pushed the game heavily as it approached its release month. We saw posters, trailers, and a week of
We are days from the release of Koei Tecmo and Team Ninja’s Dead or Alive 6, and we are treated to a sneak peek of the deluxe edition costume packs.

Nobody asked for a figure that merged Devil May Cry protagonist Dante and legendary game developer Hideo Kojima. But just because nobody asked for it doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist. A fan has bafflingly merged the Death Stranding creator and DMC‘s central protagonist in a collectible figure that I need for my desk. The project was cobbled together by Hideo Kojima-obsessed
What in the world is Bethesda doing? They are already swamped with projects, but new placeholder listings on Amazon may indicate that the Fallout and The Elder Scrolls developer has something up their sleeve.

Would you look at that, the complaining actually worked out in our favor. After an extensive amount of complaining from fans over the past three days or so, Treyarch has decided to not only revert back to the old Tier system in Call of Duty: Black Ops 4, but to improve upon it in new ways, thanks
Despite being advertised in the original trailer for the Operation Grand Heist update, there was one feature that didn’t make it into Call of Duty: Black Ops 4’s latest update. Well, until now that is, as Treyarch has finally implemented the new Blackout limited-time mode (LTM) Hot Pursuit and to celebrate, the developer released a brand
After releasing what can only be described as a beefy update for Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 on Tuesday, Treyarch decided to release a new tutorial type video that went over some of the new changes that made their way to Blackout, but there was no indication that it was going to be more than just
