The first of these releases at the end of this month, on March 30 and will be themed around Greed....

Epic Games has said that the Fortnite B.R.U.T.E. mechs won’t be nerfed any further and will stay overpowered so that ‘anyone can win’, in a news post on the Epic Games site. The mechs have been criticised for skewing the game balance, because once two players have hopped in a B.R.U.T.E., the competition is annihilated with its speed, abilities, and heavy armaments. If — and that’s a really tiny if — the B....

Debuting at the start of the event on 21st July, this is a two-part quest that has you visit one of the festival-laden locations on the map.

It seems like just yesterday that Fortnite was sucked into a black hole. Now, the game is in week 3 of Chapter 2, which brings a series of new challenges to an entirely new island. One of the newest challenges tasks players with finding a hidden ‘R’, and we’re here to point players in the right direction. Currently, Fortnite is offering players a series of Forged in Slurp challenges. These include elinating opponents, marking items, as well as the standard “dance at this location” quests....

By now, Fortnite fans will be familiar with live events. With the visuals, sound effects and more, live events provide a unique experience for players. In the past, Epic Games has put on the Rift Tour featuring Ariana Grande, film festivals, and more. Whatever the live event holds, they usually end up a hit among players. Now, another series of concerts have been announced and the first one is just around the corner....

New designs for both characters have been implemented, although there are similarities no matter which gender is chosen....

A new 40-minute Nintendo Direct presentation will be broadcast tomorrow, Tuesday 13th September, at 3pm UK time. We’ve been waiting a while for an update from Nintendo on the company’s end of 2022 plans - as well as a sneak peek into 2023. Over the summer, we’ve heard various updates on new projects in a rather piecemeal fashion. And now the autumn’s first big launch - Splatoon 3 - has arrived....

Do you yearn for the days of old when you’d get home from school and turn on G4 TV? The channel hosted a suite of shows all about games, from the industry to gaming culture — along with tech shows and reruns of COPS. It was revealed last year that G4 would be returning in some way, although details on what would be included were sparse. However, a tweet yesterday from the revived G4 account revealed that two staple programs, X-Play and Attack of The Show!...

In a year of innovative games that didn’t quite stick the landing or super polished blockbusters that left me cold, when it comes to considering game of the year contenders, I’ve found it ever more important to prioritise my heart picks. In 2022, Hindsight was that game for me. I’d argue it’s gotten more difficult to find a game that can hit you in the feels when many indie games feel compelled, at times mawkishly, to make players cry....

With Genshin Impact rolling along the road to Inazuma, miHoYo addressed a few controversies and issues. Chief among these was related to a passive talent for Kazuha, the newest character to join the roster (you can learn more about him in our character build guide). For reference, the original wording of the “Poetics of Fuubutsu” passive made players think that Kazuha could buff every other character with their own element (i....

Sucker Punch Productions has apparently gotten into the holiday spirit with the release of a free PS4 dynamic theme for its upcoming action-adventure game Ghost of Tsushima. Though not holiday-themed, the free dynamic theme definitely feels like a gift for the season and will be available until January 31, 2020. The silhouette of the game’s samurai protagonist stands motionless in a dimly lit forest as his cloak flutters in the breeze....

Google Stadia is an upcoming streaming platform that will allow people to play games at high-performance settings without requiring expensive hardware, as all of the hard work will be done in Google’s data centers....

Grand Theft Auto is certainly a fantastic series on its own. Rockstar created the quintessential open world video game, and even to this day, the name Grand Theft Auto is synonymous with open world gaming, and gaming in general. But there’s no denying that they are even more fun with cheats. The GTA series contains what are arguably the wackiest cheats in the history of gaming, and they helped elevate 10/10 games into 11/10 games....

Grand Theft Auto 5 has now shipped an eye-watering 95 million copies worldwide, publishing giant Take-Two announced in its earnings call overnight. The company revealed just three months ago that the critically acclaimed crime behemoth had moved 90 million copies, so it’s obviously still as popular as ever despite being nearly five-years-old. GTA 5 was originally released on the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in September 2013, before arriving on PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One the following year....

It’s a game that no one expected to come from developer Obsidian Entertainment, but after two years Grounded has finally reached its full release. To mark the occasion, the developer has provided a detailed post about all the new updates players can expect to enjoy with Grounded 1....

The first time Grounded killed me, I was beaten to death by a lawn mite. You know; those teeny, tiny little red bugs that could line-dance on a head of a pin and scurry along paving stones, looking like they couldn’t hurt anything? Yeah. One of those. Emphasis on the “one”, too, as this lad had been alone. And yet he’d taken one look at my sassy side ponytail and (correctly) presumed I was an easy target....

When Hayao Miyazaki stepped into a Tokyo conference room and announced his retirement from feature filmmaking on September 6th, 2013, it marked the end of a career which stretched back to the early 1960s. Through such films as My Neighbor Totoro, Spirited Away, and Howl’s Moving Castle, Miyazaki entertained and beguiled a global audience with his lighter-than-air storytelling and captivating characters. Somehow, his films managed to be both universal and deeply personal....
