Riot’s League of Legends MMO is going to ruin my life. As someone who has spent far too many hours battling it out on Summoner’s Rift, while also spending far too many hours wandering the emerald plains of Azeroth and Eorzea, a Runeterra-set MMO really is a dream come true. But the game looks like it’s caught in development hell, with Riot co-founder Marc ‘Tryndamere’ Merrill confirming that the project had been “reset” back in 2024, and was going dark as a result. We’ve seen some signs of life since then – Merrill has said the “team has a great direction” -…
Game Freak has shed more light on the development structure of its upcoming action RPG, Beast of Reincarnation.Shown in more detail during the Xbox Developer Direct presentation on Thursday, Beast of Reincarnation tells the story of Emma, an “exiled protagonist” accompanied by her wolf companion Koo, exploring a world where parasitic plants called “the blight” have overgrown around the world.Most of the human population has been lost due to the blight, but Emma has the ability to hunt Malefacts and seal their blight within her own body, so Emma and Koo have to prepare to defeat the titular Beast of Reincarnation…
Spider-Man: Brand New Day director Destin Daniel Cretton has recently teased a “tonal shift” for the upcoming Spidey movie, as he wanted it to be different from the previous instalments starring Tom Holland.”All the creatives involved when I came on board wanted to do something that felt different,” he told ComicBook. “Of course, it’s still the Spider-Man that everybody loves, but this is a new chapter in his life, and that tonal shift was something that was really exciting to me. It felt really different, and it was an extremely gratifying experience.”Cretton, who is the co-creator of the new MCU…
Who would have thought that a predominately single-player, non-live-service RPG would hit over 100,000 concurrent players two and a half years after it launched? Baldur’s Gate 3 is just built different, and the genre-defining fantasy game has done just that. According to SteamDB, the game hit 111,544 concurrent Steam players on Sunday, January 18, and Larian CEO Swen Vincke says that both it and Divinity Original Sin 2 have seen a spike in sales since the announcement of Divinity at The Game Awards. While these numbers pale in comparison to how popular Baldur’s Gate 3 was at launch, with nearly…
Forza Horizon 6 looked extremely impressive during today’s Xbox Developer Direct, with a gorgeous take on Japan and some seemingly smart tweaks to progression on display. If you’re ready to buy all the way in, you might want to take a little caution, however, as the game is going to be notably more expensive than its predecessor at pretty much every level.If you just want the game itself, Forza Horizon 6 is $70, up ten bucks from the $60 price point that Forza Horizon 5 launched at back in 2021. The Deluxe Edition has had an even bigger price hike,…
Unlike a lot of people, I’m holding back on forming a proper opinion on Highguard until I’ve actually, you know, played it. The trailer was fine, although perhaps in the wrong spot on the TGAs – the level of scrutiny you get for being in the highest-profile portion of the show didn’t really do the FPS game any favors, especially when it’s been radio silent since then. That is, until now (kind of). Exophase, a site that tracks videogame achievements, has posted what it claims is the full list of Highguard achievements. These achievements, if indeed real, give us a…
Fable is about to bring us into an open-world version of Albion that’s home to a living population of over 1000 NPCs, and I’m happy to confirm that you can romance almost all of them.With the Xbox Developer Direct revealing that we can get to know the NPCs, go on dates, get married, and even have kids, I took the opportunity to ask Playground Games’ general manager Ralph Fulton if we could feasibly woo and wed any one of NPCs we encounter in the world.”With a very few exceptions, the answer is yes,” Fulton says. “We went into this with…
It’s a tale as old as time; a new triple-A game releases on PC, and for many players, it barely functions. Such a huge range of PC builds means that many playing Monster Hunter Wilds have had, well, problems getting the game to run smoothly. That doesn’t negate the core experience, and it’s still one of the best RPGs of last year, but the reality is that most people can’t fully enjoy it. Fortunately, there’s an upcoming patch that will optimize the game, and you can finally give it a try – especially as it’s cheaper than ever before right…
Marvel Studios has been billing its upcoming Wonder Man streaming series as something different from the usual MCU fare, and it’s already bringing in some seriously eccentric characters and concepts from comics. That includes taking what could be the next step in assembling the weirdest incarnation of Earth’s Mightiest Heroes ever – the Great Lakes Avengers.Doorman, a relatively obscure mutant hero with the ability turn his body into a portal of dark energy, is confirmed as part of the cast of Wonder Man, making him the second member of the GLA to make it into the MCU alongside the unkillable…
Looking for Arknights Endfield guides? Arknights developer Hypergryph has broken out of its mobile tower defense shell, bringing the hit franchise into a rich 3D world. However, this isn’t another generic gacha-filled anime RPG. Instead, Endfield sticks to the series’ strengths by bringing base-building to the fore. Announced back in 2022, Arknights Endfield was on our radar for quite some time. Joining the likes of Genshin Impact and Wuthering Waves in the open-world gacha game arena, your gaming hours will now become a whole lot more stretched. To help navigate Talos-II, we’ve put together a comprehensive suite of guides that’ll…
