During a Q&A with investors, Shuntaro Furakawa, Nintendo representative director and president, warned that some games the company plans to release this fiscal year – including those not-yet-announced – could be affected by the COVID-19 global pandemic “if the impact is prolonged or worsens further” due to developers’ work-at-home environments. “… Many employees of Nintendo

What better barrier than the sea? Arriving next month, Prison Architect‘s next expansion is Island Bound, letting you trade out those impractical land-loving fortresses for the sheer simplicity of a big scary rock in the sea. Forget barbed wires and concrete walls, the roaring abyss will prevent even the most rebellious inmate from attempting escape

The Elder Scrolls Online brings us back to Skyrim in the upcoming chapter Greymoor, allowing players to experience Dark Heart of Skyrim.

Super Mega Baseball 3 is up to bat today—by which I mean it’s released—and oh my do these guys have some thighs. The third iteration of hyper turbo home runs is the “deepest on-field simulation yet,” say Metalhead Software. If you’re looking to take a test jog around the ballpark, there’s a demo available to

Sony and developer Sucker Punch are holding a State of Play presentation this Thursday, May 14 at 1:00 PM Pacific for the PlayStation 4 title Ghost of Tsushima in advance of its July 17 release date.

If you go around cramming your pockets full of monsters, accidents will happen. Just look at Cassette Beasts, a newly-announced Pokémon-ish battler where critters can temporarily fuse together into powerful new forms. Presumably they’re gummed together with lint, a Werther’s Original, and one of the old pound coins shops no longer accept. Come see some

Civilization VI is getting a lot of new stuff over the next year, including new civilizations, new leaders, units, and ways to play. New options are packaged as both free updates and premium updates, and the Civilization team expounds upon some details in a special video update today. It’s great to see games like Civilization VI

Hear ye! Hear ye! Ubisoft have announced E3 part 25: Ubisoft Forward to occur on July 12th, 2020. That’s all you need to know, right? Naw, alright fine. As we know, E3 was cancelled because of the Covid-19 coronavirus pandemic. June’s fast approaching though, so publishers and developers who would’ve been up on stages saying

Mafia is back online. Two years after its last post, longer still since the last piece of Mafia III DLC came and went, the open-world crime ’em up’s Twitter account has poked the hornet’s nest by tweeting out one word earlier today. Are they teasing a sequel? Lining up for a remaster? Or is this

For most of Doom Eternal‘s demonic foes, the best they can expect is to make a nice corpse. A particularly pleasing splash of gore on the Doom Slayer’s boot. But for those lucky few that manage to take down our man in green, a special reward will soon be in store. Doom Eternal’s first major

The Mandalorian, Disney Plus’ critically acclaimed Star Wars space-western series by Jon Favreau, continues to bolster its season 2 cast. In March, it was reported that actress Rosario Dawson would be taking on the role of Anakin Skywalker’s apprentice from Star Wars: The Clone Wars for the second season The Mandalorian. Now The Hollywood Reporter has a scoop that not only

As is often the case when a console manufacturer touts upcoming a third-party game for its new system, whether the title is exclusive or not can be confusing. In the case of Vampire The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2 from Paradox Interactive (developed by Hardsuit Labs), the game – which was showcased in yesterday’s Inside Xbox presentation for

During a home devstream today from Digital Extremes, players were treated to plenty of new developments regarding updates to the ever evolving online shooter. You can watch the full stream here (it’s over an hour long and features devs in their homes, it’s kind of charming for that aspect alone). However, among the announcements like

If you didn’t feel challenged enough by Indivisible‘s main platforming and punching campaign, here’s some good news for ya. Lab Zero have released a new DLC for their turn-ish-based RPG today that promises the “forty specially crafted levels await to test your platforming and combat skills.” The Razmi’s Challenges DLC is available now, so you

Tokyo Game Show organizers, the Computer Entertainment Supplier’s Association (CESA) in Japan have announced that there will be no physical event this year in Japan due concerns regarding the coronavirus. Instead, an online event is planned for an unspecified date, about which more details are coming in late May. Games for both the PlayStation 5 and Xbox

Following a little leak this week, Yakuza: Like A Dragon is now officially announced for PC, coming later this year. This opens a new chapter in Sega’s RPG series about mobsters with hearts of gold, starring a different wrestledad in another city. Like A Dragon also shakes up the action, going from a beat ’em

Welcome to the year of cyberpunk in which all games must have futuristic tech. Dark Light is another of the sort, though it’s calling itself a cyberpunk apocalypse instead of yer usual neon-splattered corporate dystopia. The Dark Souls and Metroid-inspired action game will have you hacking and shooting up invisible baddies when it launches in

Today, Bandai Namco showed off Ultra Instinct Goku in action with an action-packed new trailer. You know what they say when it comes to Dragon Ball – there’s just never enough Goku. Though I could go for a little more Ginyu Force. Check out the trailer below for a look at what this character has to

Cyberpunk 2077 is one of the most anticipated games launching this year, so any news comes with a lot of excitement. Today, CD Projekt Red teased an event called Night City Wire on June 11. While no other concrete details were revealed, it lines up with what would have been the last day of E3,

For the next two weeks, Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege is swapping out hostages and bombs for safeboxes full of… well it doesn’t actually say what they’re full of. I imagine it’s money, or gold, or something that old-timey English gangsters like, because it’s all part of the Grand Larceny event, inspired by 1920s British

After the official soundtrack for Doom Eternal was released on April 18th to Collector’s Edition owners, players quickly noticed that something sounded off. It turned out that there was a marked difference between the tracks Eternal’s composer Mick Gorden had mixed himself and those done internally by Id Software. At the time, it was unclear

E3 got canceled this year, but EA just announced a digital EA Play Live event full of ‘world premieres, news and more,’ which will take place on June 11. This would have been around the time that E3 would have happened, so hopefully this is a good way to kick off the summer and we’ll get some

The sea’s a pretty messed up place, ain’t it? A vast, practically-bottom expanse of mother nature’s weirdest and deadliest experiments, piled in together and told to work it all out themselves. A short, pay-what-you-want release from devs Maceo Bob Mair and Nicolás Delgado, Swallow The Sea (available on Itch) captures that horror by following a

Disappointingly, there’s not too much munching going on in the trailer for Noita‘s Feast update. Unless, of course, developers Nolla Games are serving up a banquet of roast witch. But rather than sausages or salads, Noita’s platter is a deadly one. Released this week, Feast adds a bounty of spells, artefacts, environmental overhauls and more

There are a hell of a lot of Warhammer games out there. But while we’ve got grimdark trash and genre-defining classics, there have been very few games set in Games Workshop’s newest setting. The Old World’s been dead a long time – and with few exceptions, nobody’s taken a real crack at Warhammer: Age Of

What the hell is going on in Destiny 2? Is a question I ask myself pretty much every time I jump back into Bungie’s space-wizard adventure. So much has happened since I last played full-time, and worse, so much is locked to the annals of history – seasonal content that’ll never return to Destiny 2.

Last month, the voice behind Team Fortress 2‘s Soldier, Rick May, passed away at 79, after contracting Covid-19 during rehabilitation from a February stroke. This week, Valve’s vibrant battlefields grew a little sombre, as an update brought official tributes to the voice actor across TF2’s farms, forts and fighting pits. For some, May will be

When you’re cooped up inside all day long (for forty-five days and counting), making a game can make for a good distraction. There have been more than a few quarantine-related game jams, each with their own themes and concepts. Isolation, social-solidarity, and “stay home” are common, and when the historians look back at the prolific
