While Spyro Reignited Trilogy was met with positive reception upon its release, there was one glaring omission: the lack of subtitles in the game’s cutscenes. When asked about their exclusion around the game’s launch, Activision stated that “there’s no industry standard for subtitles” to the dismay of many. This whole controversy led DualShockers to discuss why subtitles
Over the past few years, Dead Space has likely been the EA franchise that fans have begged the publisher to create a new installment of the most. Ever since the release of Dead Space 3 back in 2013, the series has been dormant. Combined with the fact that Visceral Games, the studio behind all three mainline
Power Rangers: Battle for the Grid has received a few gameplay videos in the past but they have been fairly reserved, only showing a couple of characters and the basic fighting mechanics. Today, a full-fledged gameplay trailer was released by nWay, Lionsgate, and Hasbro and it finally showcases several new characters as well as Zords’
At E3 2018, I had the pleasure of previewing Anthem, BioWare’s first foray into the loot shooter genre. Coming out of that small room, I was stoked. I really enjoyed the vertical slice they presented as it showcased its fantastic gameplay, a facet BioWare isn’t really known for excelling in. Even with the lack of
While Glen Schofield and Sledgehammer Games are probably best known for their work on the Call of Duty franchise over the years, some new information suggests that that almost wasn’t the case, at least at a certain point. In a new interview with Game Informer, the co-founder of the studio said that at one point he pitched
Say what you will about Treyarch, but no one can deny that they are adding a ton of content to Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 and this week seems like no different.

With Devil May Cry 5 having released last week on consoles and PC, fans new and old to the series are getting the chance to kick demon ass and land SSStylish combos to their heart’s content.

After so many years of anticipation, the long-awaited Devil May Cry 5 is finally out in the wild and so far, it seems like fans are loving it (myself included in our recent review of the game). However, it seems like there is still plenty more to come for those that have been playing the game,
The action-RPG Dragon’s Dogma has, over the years, gradually built up its reputation as a cult classic action-RPG thanks to its compelling mix of challenging combat and open-world exploration. While the game itself has been released on both last generation and current generation consoles, it appears that in the near future fans of the RPG will get
GDC 2019 is quickly approaching (man I gotta pack at some point) and ahead of the conference ID@Xbox has announced the thirty games they will be showing off in San Francisco from March 18-22, 2019 that includes 13 new titles. ID@Xbox (Microsoft’s indie-focused department) will be at the Microsoft Booth in the lower level of
Devil May Cry fans have waited well over a decade for the release of the long-awaited Devil May Cry 5, and even after all that time, it appears the game has delivered on everything that fans could have hoped for. In the case of one fan, however, that love of the latest entry in the series extended
Earlier today, a brief new trailer for the direct-to-video release of DOOM: Annihilation was released and let’s just say that it didn’t look so hot. The latest film based on the classic gaming franchise looked extremely low budget but also just didn’t come close to resembling much of anything we’ve seen from the video games other than
The Division 2 is set to release this week and we’ve already got our hands on the final product. Ubisoft pushed the game’s servers live this morning rather than tonight at midnight as originally planned, but we aren’t complaining. As a result, we’ve already played the opening of the game and made sure to capture
The Switch certainly can’t compete with the Xbox One or PS4 in terms of pure power. It is even farther behind the updated Xbox One X and PS4 Pro. But where Nintendo lacks in power, they normally make up for it with their creative artistic abilities. Now, Breath of the Wild wasn’t the most graphically inducing game
As you all probably already aware of, Fallout 76 got off to a rocky start and has been ripe with controversy since its November 2018 release. Many are hoping that Wild Appalachia, the name Bethesda has given to the game’s various Spring content updates, will make the game better. Today, we learned that the start

At E3 2018, Phil Spencer took to the stage during Microsoft’s press conference to announce that it had acquired several studios like Ninja Theory, Compulsion Games, and Undead Labs. At the same time, Microsoft also unveiled The Initiative, a brand new studio that created in Santa Monica. Today, we finally learned a bit more about
This past weekend, those playing Anthem found themselves getting far more loot than at any other time in the game’s short life. These more frequent loot drops were initially thought to have been a new addition to Anthem but it turns out that the drops were only occurring so often because of a bug. Come Saturday when BioWare
Daemon X Machina has a visual flair that’s astoundingly unique on the Nintendo Switch. A mech-based third-person shooter that has gameplay elements of Monster Hunter, Armored Core, Freedom Wars, and a dystopian-inspired storyline that culminates into something that feels wildly unique amongst the Nintendo Switch’s lineup of games. Needless to say, I’ve been shipping this game since its
Mystery is the heart of The Occupation, from both its larger goal of presenting a moral quandary for the player to navigate and discover, to the smaller portions of how to get past a locked door and discover more clues for various leads. Taking place in the late 1980s in a not too dissimilar version
Remedy Entertainment has been revealing a variety of new details on its upcoming project Control as of late, but the one piece of information that will still don’t have is that of the game’s release date.

Days Gone is just within reach for eager fans of the upcoming PS4 exclusive by Sony Bend Studio as it launches next month on April 26th. But something else that is up the studio’s sleeve is that the developers have confirmed that Days Gone will get an unannounced DLC post-launch – it’s a pretty exciting time
I’m a simple man. Like most bearded bald men in their late 20’s, I only have two hobbies: gaming and waifu pillows craft beer. And while these two do occasionally have crossovers, they are indirect: Super Smash Bros. or Mario Kart tournaments at the local taproom. However, I’m thinking about making a road trip to Canada to try out these Persona, Final Fantasy, and Yakuza themed
Game development is a tricky beast — regardless if we are talking about small indie titles or breakthrough AAA successes like Apex Legends by developer Respawn Entertainment and EA. There are a ton of tricks and smoke-and-mirror workarounds to deliver a smooth end-user experience to the player, which creates a cohesive end-product. But occasionally it is fun to
There are simply no limits to how far the Bloodborne community is able to take their dedication to the game. While some are able to show off their love of the title by finding the location from the opening cinematic or creating blood-soaked rune coasters, others are perfecting nearly unbeatable battles in the game. Even better, we
Fire Emblem fans are undoubtedly ready to jump back into Nintendo’s biggest strategy RPG with the upcoming Fire Emblem: Three Houses. This entry will be the first console release the series has had since Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn on the Wii. Which by the way, is still really hard to come by since it saw a limited physical release along
In my mind, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate is undoubtedly the best entry in the series as it appeals to both a casual and competitive community. However, you could say otherwise when it comes to Nintendo’s eSports efforts with the game. But that’s another article for another day. While Super Smash Bros. Ultimate definitely delivers as a fighting game, its
The Nintendo Switch is undoubtedly a hit compared to Nintendo’s previous console the Wii U. While the console-handheld hybrid still has a long way to go before it can reach the same sales numbers as the Wii, however, it’s nice to see Nintendo back in the limelight after what felt like years of disappointment in
Physical games publisher Limited Run Games has confirmed that they’ll be hosting a press conference at E3 later this year.
