Heroes of the Storm has been down in the past, but not out. As someone who has played it nearly every week since its alpha, it's very hard to actually call it "down" actually. Although Blizzard unceremoniously declared that it was winding d...

Hideki Kamiya, director of Resident Evil 2 and originator of such franchises as Bayonetta and The Wonderful 101, is no stranger to seeing his characters in the hands of other developers. Dante from Devil May Cry, Amaterasu from Okami, and o...

I forgot how much I loved The Wonderful 101. Though I only got to play the upcoming remastered version on Switch for ten minutes or so, it still left me impressed. Some of the puzzles that were specifically designed for the Wii U's dual scr...

Magic: The Gathering Arena has gone through a lot of changes. It's only been a few months since the "1.0" retail release, and Oko has been banned, some technical issues have been smoothed over and a friends list feature is on the horiz...

DJMax Respect catapulted onto the scene in 2018 on PS4, and cemented itself as one of the modern rhythm greats. Amid some recent half-baked efforts with scant tracklists, Respect was a powerhouse, offering over 100 songs and a lit...

Although I had a feeling Shovel Knight would take off, I didn't think it would take off as much as it did. I mean the little guy has a cameo in pretty much everything from puzzle games to rhythm romps now, and even managed to snag appe...

There's a reason you've seen so many EVE Online stories this past decade and change: the entire game is player-driven. If a war starts and someone loses items that amount to scores of time and money, that matters. If players are litera...

Fix your eyes at middle distance, that's where most of Stela -- but far from all of it -- takes place. This mysterious and eerie trek through the apocalyptic final days of an ancient world makes the most of its scenery by constantly pl...

The Genesis Mini is finally out in the wild and people around the world are reliving the 16-bit days. Meticulously modeled after the original hardware, this little device pays homage to Sega's legacy in glorious fashion. From the packaging ...

For a game so willing to crush you at a moment's notice, Dead Cells is a surprisingly feel-good story. Whether you first got into Motion Twin's roguelite action-platformer in 2017 with the Steam Early Access version, or you started playing ...

Control is the sort of game that you don't stop thinking about when it's finished. It invites retrospect and analysis -- a thorough rehashing of everything you saw and read along the way, all in pursuit of connecting every little threa...

Super Meat Boy Forever feels like it's taking, well, forever. Originally set for April, Team Meat had to delay and set a new imprecise launch date of "After but not too far after April 2019." Now five months later, the clock keeps tick...

Some new details about Yakuza: Like A Dragon have come out from this week's Famitsu Magazine and we're starting to get a clearer picture of what Ryu Ga Gotoku Studios is doing. This latest entry in the long-running series is definitely doub...
