For all the trials, tribulations, and controversies that Destiny 2 has suffered at the hands of controversial updates and strange vaulting of content, it remains one of my favorite sci-fi FPS games on the market. Few developers can nail atmosphere and gunplay as Bungie can, and while recent expansions haven’t been as good as I hoped, they’re still plenty of fun – especially the Star Wars-inspired Renegades. If you’re looking to completely catch up with the story so far (at least, the story that’s still available), the Destiny 2 Expansions Bundle from Humble Bundle is a budget-friendly way to do…

It’s no secret that games like Starfield and Fallout 76 stand out among past Bethesda Game Studios greats, shaking up the developer’s usual formula for something new – and Todd Howard knows it, too.The Bethesda boss himself admits as much during a recent roundtable interview. Our own Josh West posited that Starfield and Fallout 76 are more divisive than RPG gems like Skyrim, and Howard agrees to an extent – but that’s not unique to them, as series like Fallout and The Elder Scrolls came across similarly different at first. “If you look back at the beginning of Elder Scrolls,…

Classic World of Warcraft got another dose of nostalgia this past February, as Burning Crusade was re-introduced into the experience. First released almost 20 years ago, players have been jumping right back into the old school slab of MMORPG, though with the caveat they can’t powerlevel like they used to any more thanks to a post-release patch.Back in the day, dungeon-boosting, whereby you’d benefit from a more experienced player doing all the hard work in a raid, allowed people to level up alt characters much more efficiently. Sadly, on the back of Burning Crusade Classic: Anniversary, Blizzard’s picked up on…

Diablo 4’s upcoming Lord of Hatred expansion has been rated for Nintendo Switch by an Indonesian ratings board, hinting at a potential handheld port.This is from the same Indonesia Game Rating System purportedly behind the recent 007: First Light and Assassin’s Creed Black Flag remake leaks. However, in this case it’s not so much a leak as publicly available information. You can see the rating for yourself right here, complete with a general description for Diablo 4 and ‘Nintendo Switch’ listed clearly as a platform alongside PS5, Xbox Series X, and PC.While this is far from official confirmation, Diablo and…

Despite some debunking from James Gunn, it looks like Adria Arjona is playing Maxima in Superman sequel Man of Tomorrow after all.The announcement comes from Variety, who were one of the outlets that reported that Arjona, among other actors, had screen-tested for the role. Gunn shot down the screen-testing report, which listed Marisa Abela, Ella Purnell, and Arjona as finalists. Even more curious is the fact that Gunn has previously stated that Arjona would make a great Wonder Woman, but the Amazonian warrior has yet to be cast in the new DCU.Maxima is an alien queen from the planet Almerac…

The sadistic killer Muse played a big role in Daredevil: Born Again season 1. And though he didn’t make it out alive, his memory still looms large in season 2, particularly for psychiatrist Heather Glenn (Margarita Levieva) who nearly fell victim to Muse.But is Muse’s haunting legacy hinting at something far more sinister for Heather as Daredevil: Born Again season 2 goes on? There’s some comic book precedent to suggest we’re looking at a big evolution for Heather Glenn.We’ll explain it all below, but beware, we’ll be getting into spoilers for Daredevil: Born Again season 2, so turn back now…

Disney has suddenly delisted over a dozen older games on Steam. Most of them are licensed movie and TV tie-ins to properties that have not exactly stood the test of time, though one title in particular stands out. Star Wars: Rebellion is a 4X real-time strategy game the scale of which has rarely been seen in video games set in the galaxy far, far away. Sadly, there’s now no official way to play it.These delistings all happened without warning, as they suddenly showed up as “retired” on SteamDB earlier today. (Thanks, Wario64.) The Steam store pages for the games are…

YouTuber Seán “JackSepticEye” McLoughlin has published a video in which he addresses the newly announced Bloodborne animated movie, and in it he talks about his love for the game, his role on the movie adaptation, and his thoughts on taking on such an integral responsibility.First, a quick ICYMI: Late last night at Sony’s CinemaCon panel, the company revealed that an R-rated animated movie adaptation of FromSoftware’s beloved action-RPG is in the works, and that it’ll be “very true” to the game. All of this came as a surprise to attendees as well as off-the-clock entertainment reporters, but perhaps the biggest…

Get in here, stalker. STALKER 2: Heart of Chornobyl just got its meatiest patch in months, the Sealed Truth update, which has added a spooky, story-based new questline along with various bug fixes. The new quests, which take you deep into the monster-infested bowels of the X-18 laboratory (previously visited in STALKER: Shadow of Chernobyl), seemingly play up HoC’s horror side, and word is it’ll loosely tie into the plot of the incoming Cost of Hope expansion. Which sounds good, although you might need to fire up an older save to kick it off, as it’s seemingly only available for…

After asking Rockstar to cough up $200,000, a hacker group has made good on its threats to release what it had dug up of the company’s internal data. But the release of that information seems like it might actually have been a good thing for the Grand Theft Auto studio, as its parent company, Take-Two, just saw a massive boost to its stock price alongside the news.Take-Two shares closed on April 13 at $201.36, representing a total market value of $37.28 billion. But that was before the leak had started to disseminate. Among other things, it revealed financial data suggesting…
