I have two kids, and so my hopes and dreams for LEGO sets over the years have slowly shifted from “Dragon Roost Island playset” to “adequate storage solutions”. And the new and surprising collaboration between LEGO and IKEA is definitely taking care of the latter.

Up until this week, Amazon Games wasn’t exactly batting a thousand. Its most notable achievement of the year was releasing Crucible, a team-based shooter that flopped so hard it had to be un-released. Its upcoming MMO, New World, is off to a much stronger start, in part because Twitch streamers are involved in a…

One of the most jarring things about the new Avengers game is that, since we’re all so used to everyone’s faces from the movies, seeing other faces just doesn’t feel right. So here’s what the game would look like if it had somehow got the rights to use the likenesses of Scarlett Johansson, Chris Hemsworth and Robert…

Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War’s debut trailer—which has already attracted controversy—gives a lot of airtime to Soviet defector Yuri Bezmenov and his views. Views which have, in recent years, become a dangerous rallying cry for far-right conspiracy theories and the people who peddle them.

And so, nearly two years after I first lamented the absence of the great Yaddle from ALL the Star Wars games, my suffering has ended. Finally, those cowards have released the first in-game footage of Yaddle from 2021’s LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga.

From hedgehogs to superheroes, and everything in between, Roger Craig Smith’s voice has helped tell hundreds of video game stories.

I bet you wouldn’t mind something fun and absolutely unrelated to all of this (gestures vaguely around with arms) mess around us all right now? Of course, you would. You’re human. And, as a human, I suspect that you also have a special love for well-crafted pixel art and old Japanese Domestic Market Cars. If you…

Summer Game Fest, the not-E3 months-long event created by Geoff Keighley, wrapped up today with a big, live event kicking off Gamescom 2020.

We got our first look at Destiny 2's new Stasis subclass and its abilities in a new trailer during Gamescom today, and it looks absolutely wild.

We’ve seen glimpses of PS5 gameplay before—including in one seriously impressive tech demo from May—but today’s Gamescom “Opening Night Live” showed off a deeper look. Capping off the two-hour (!!) event was a lengthy gameplay demo of Insomniac Games’ PS5 exclusive, Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart. Here’s a look:

If you ever wished your local Renaissance Faire was more colorful, you’re in luck. Fall Guys’ second season will be themed after the medieval era, developer Mediatonic revealed today during Gamescom’s “Opening Night Live” event.

Murder mystery 12 Minutes re-emerged at Gamescom 2020 opening night with even more polish and an all-star voice cast that includes Daisy Ridley, James McAvoy, and Willem Dafoe.

Come September 9, scouring the mod scene to turn your Sims into Jedi and Stormtroopers becomes a thing of the past. The Sims 4 Star Wars: Journey to Batuu game pack will give players the chance to officially make their own Star Wars story.

Given the track record for comic book adaptations, Damon Lindelof’s Watchmen series, an adaptation of the Alan Moore graphic novel, stood an equal chance of telling a ripping action-adventure story as it did ending up like so much space squid on a windshield. But with the help of producers like Stephen Williams and…

I never thought I would be afraid of beavers. But after playing a legendary animal mission recently, I’m terrified of the buck-toothed bastards. However, I’m also excited that Rockstar finally seems to be adding more creative, exciting, and silly content into Red Dead Online.

Hurricane Laura made landfall over Louisiana last night, causing hundreds of thousands to lose power and severe damage to infrastructure like chemical plants even as the storm weakened over time. But from the safety of the virtual clouds, Microsoft Flight Simulator players spent the last day exploring the storm from a…

Early this morning, Hurricane Laura made landfall near Cameron, Louisiana, battering the region with winds up to 150 mph. There is already one confirmed fatality, and Louisiana Gov. John Bel Edwards says he expects more to be reported over the next few days. While there is already extensive damage in Louisiana, Laura…

Gamescom’s “Opening Night Live” is the last major not-E3 event of the summer. Hosted by Geoff Keighley, pretty much every heavy hitter in the industry—from EA and Gearbox to Bungie and Bethesda—is making an appearance. Expect to get a taste of upcoming games (Ratchet & Clank: A Rift Apart, Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold…
