Call of Duty: Black Ops III mixes the series’ familiar first-person shooting with a wild cyberpunk storyline. The narrative breaks apart the further the player progress unless it finally explodes in a level that mixes World War II, zombies, and dying dreams. That level, Demon Within, is both the high point of the campaign and…
I’m a big fan of action games, and the cream of the crop is Devil May Cry. The series has always had the right mix of tricky combo creation and carefree fun. When developer Ninja Theory reimagined the series in 2013’s DmC: Devil May Cry, an anarchic mood and redesigned Dante upset some fans, including…
From Metacritic scores to How Long To Beat completion times, there are plenty of numbers that players reference when deciding to buy a game. Gaming storefront Green Man Gaming has another metric: Average Cost Per Hour. 2015’s Doom is said to cost $1.24 per hour. Frostpunk is $4.57 an hour. These are strange numbers that…
The dangerous dragon Kulve Taroth is coming back to Monster Hunter: World from May 25 until June 1. If you were just one scale short of that armor set, now the chance to finish it. (Also: wow this was much sooner than I expected.)
Sea of Thieves’ first content expansion, The Hungering Deep, will release on May 29th. The trailer above teases horrible monsters under the waves that some people (probably players eventually) can summon. Which sounds like a pretty awesome way to troll that solo player in their sloop.
Sometimes it’s the little things that bug players. And sometimes those little things are worth fixing. That’s the case with Battlefront II, a game with a playerbase that’s been frustrated by microtransactions and a lack of new content but at least has had their call answered to get rid of the holograms in the game’s…
Star Wars: Battlefront II is working to overcome its image problem following a controversial release. A new season of content, related to Han Solo, hit the game today. Its smattering of character skins and a map lifted from 2015’s Star Wars Battlefront provide little for those hoping the game will bounce back from its rocky…
Spartan Fistis a first person brawler where you have to punch your way through randomly generated maps. Along the way, there’s tons of special attacks and silly upgrades that turn each new playthrough into a hilarious beatdown of hapless enemies. Developed by Seattle based developer Glass Bottom Games, Spartan Fist’s origins spring from personal tragedy.…
PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds is still working the kinks out of its new map, Sanhok, adding more and details with each new test period. The most recent test opened the map to all players, who have discovered strange golden chests lurking around the island. Sanhok started as a test map called “Savage,” a 4×4 grid island much…
Sea of Thieves is adding some welcome features that will keep crews together and help them on their plunder-filled quests. The pirate game now allows players to make their crews private and sail even the biggest ships with only a few hands on deck. One of the most annoying things in Sea of Thieves was…
Twitch now lets you filter PUBG matches by the number of players alive If you’re impatient and want to jump right down to the final 25, you can skip right to the action. And thus we are one step closer to a establishing a real-life Hunger Games TV channel.
A new glitch for Breath of the Wild helps break the game for casual players and speedrunners alike. A few quick buttons presses in the pause menu can recharge runes, making it easy for anyone to conquer some of the game’s toughest hurdles. Everyone playing Breath of the Wild has found themselves wishing they had…
After playing through Destiny 2’s campaign and conquering the player versus player gauntlet Trials of the Nine, I thought I was done with the game. The release of the Warmind DLC has given me a reason to return, and I’m finding it incredibly awkward to be a powerful Guardian who doesn’t remember game basics like…
The weekend is for finally cleaning your room because you’re pretty sure that luggage from your February trip back to New England doesn’t need to be there anymore. Also, video games. I’ve powered my way through Yakuza 6: The Song of Life and God Of War over the last few weeks and learned a lot…
Monster Hunter: World’s Ryu armor was a silly trophy costume that was underpowered. The good news is that hunters looking to buff their gear can finally get an upgraded version. The bad news? You’ll have to fight one of the game’s most tenacious—and annoying—monsters. The new Monster Hunter has been crossing over with Street Fighter…
The Wisdom and/or Madness of Crowds is an interactive game by Nicky Case all about how ideas and trends spread. Short puzzles teach the player how popular perception changes as groups grow smaller or larger. It’s an important lesson wedged between devious brain teasers and a perfect Indie Pick. We’ve featured Case’s work before, which…
It’s tempting to want to see our favorite characters in fiction again, maybe in a sequel or prequel. But sometimes I wonder if it’s best if they’re left alone. According to everything that Rockstar Games has shown, the upcoming game Red Dead Redemption 2 will take an extensive look at the Van der Linde gang,…
Over a year after its discovery, a long-locked puzzle door in Battlefield 1 is finally open. Inside? Why, more puzzles, of course. The so-called “Zombie Door” was discovered shortly after the release of a map called Fort Vaux in March 2017. In real life, Fort de Vaux was attacked by the Germans during World War…
Star Wars: Battlefront II’s long delayed second season of new content kicks off on May 16th. The Han Solo inspired season brings back Jabba’s Palace and adds bounty hunter inspired skins for heroes. Additional content based on Solo: A Star Wars Story will come in June.
