If you’ve been on the Internet at all in the last couple weeks or months, you’ve likely heard Lil Nas X’s song Old Town Road. The country rap track which was originally released back in December 2018 first started getting popular on the video app TikTok and has since blown up to such a degree

Shadow of the Tomb Raider may have ended the three-game arc of Lara Croft’s journey to becoming the Tomb Raider we all know and love when it released last fall, but each month since then, Crystal Dynamics has continued to deliver a variety of new adventures for Lara (and the player) to traverse through with
Bethesda’s Rage 2 is finally slated to release in just about one month and to make the wait until launch day a little bit easier, today a new gameplay trailer for the title was let loose. This new video for Rage 2, entitled Everything vs. Me, is just about that: fighting everything you see. The world of Rage
It seems that Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice isn’t just doing incredibly well critically, but it has been selling it a fantastic pace, too. As announced today by Activision via a press release, Sekiro has sold over 2 million copies worldwide across PS4, Xbox One, and PC in fewer than 10 days after release. These numbers are based on
Last February, God Eater 3‘s producers at Bandai Namco commented that they’re listening to those willing to play God Eater 3 on the go, on the Switch, and now it actually happened. God Eater 3 will be released on Nintendo Switch on July 12. Pre-orders are open now, and those who do pre-order will receive bonus
A couple of weeks back, a listing for Yakuza Kiwami 2 on PC via the ESRB seemed to all but confirm that the Dragon of Dojima would once again be headed to a new platform. As of today, this leak has turned out to be true. Sega announced this morning officially that Yakuza Kiwami 2 is indeed
During the 2004 Evolution Championship Series (EVO), two players came together to produce one of the most iconic moments in fighting game history. Against Justin “JWong” Wong, Daigo “The Beast” Umehara pulled off an incredible comeback to advance to the Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike Grand Finals. Thanks to EVO’s Mark Julio, we have brand new
The success of titles like A Hat in Time shows how much players treasure games that invoke the bright and playful atmosphere of 3D platformers from the 90s. And from what I’ve seen so far, Ary and the Secret of Seasons is a title that encapsulates the vibrations of the 3D platformer era near perfectly.
On Tuesday, Black Ops 4 received an update that added in a brand new game mode that’s been a Call of Duty staple since the Modern Warfare 3 days: Infected. Now, to celebrate its launch on PlayStation 4, Treyarch has released a brand new trailer for the mode. The trailer, as expected, gives players a look at the survival mode and all
The Earth Defense Force series has made a resurgence in the west over the past couple of months. Yuke’s and D3 Publisher brought Earth Defense Force 5 for PS4 west in December 2018, and today the pair have released the more western focused Earth Defense Force: Iron Rain exclusively for PS4 as well. To accompany
Earth Defense Force has always won its fanbase over by being one of the most self-aware games out there. It’s simplistic and straight to the point, but that’s all part of its charm. The series has been a ton of fun in the past, but if you read my review of Earth Defense Force 5 you know that
Hot off the heels of announcing the release date for Samurai Shodown, SNK has today released a new trailer showing off the move set of one of the game’s fighters. Today’s video highlights Nakoruru, a female fighter that comes with an eagle companion to battle against foes. Through the use of her eagle pal, Nakoruru can
No Straight Roads is the first game from Metronomik, the studio founded by Wan Hazmer, lead designer of Final Fantasy XV, and Daim Dziauddin, a concept artist for Street Fighter V. Their first release is coming to PC and PS4. If the new trailer is anything to go by, it looks incredibly weird, in the best
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. While the long-awaited and highly-anticipated sequel to the 2003 classic took over a decade to finally enter development, Ubisoft’s CEO recently explained a bit about why the company thought it was the right time to bring the series
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
Ubisoft first unveiled the UbiArt Framework engine in 2010, and it has since led to several beautiful looking games. At total of 11 games across PC, consoles, and mobile devices were created with the engine, most notably Rayman Origins, Rayman Legends, Valiant Hearts: The Great War, and Child of Light. While the artistic styles this
The top-downloaded games in March from the PlayStation Store have now been revealed and Ubisoft’s loot shooter The Division 2 has come out as the big winner.

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.

Splinter Cell has long been one of Ubisoft’s most iconic and popular franchises, which makes it all the more strange that the series has been dormant for the entirety of this current console generation. In a new conversation, Ubisoft’s CEO Yves Guillemot explained more of the reasoning as to why Sam Fisher has been away
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
Today was the usual monthly Super Robot Wars stream. The latest console game of the series, Super Robot Wars T, has been released on March 20, so the stream was mostly dedicated to toys and the mobile games: Super Robot Wars Cross-Omega, and the upcoming Super Robot Wars DD. In Super Robot Wars X-Ω related news, the
