A whole mess of people played the Battlefield 1 beta. 13.2 million, to be more precise. While many of us just used the limited experience to find out if Battlefield's move to WWI was indeed a good one (and to have fun with horse-related hij...   read

I loved Orcs Must Die! and its sequel. I haven't played Orcs Must Die! Unchained, the third game in the trap-laying, crossbow-firing tower defense series, and I get the sense that I'm hardly alone. The player-versus-player focus combined wi...   read

Alien: Isolation in virtual reality -- need I say more? Besides the inherent potential for terror in a game about evading a lone Xenomorph, even the more mundane sequences could work wonderfully in VR. Creative Assembly nailed the retro-fut...   read

I'm not expecting every big PlayStation 4 release to end up with a patch enabling it to take advantage of the PS4 Pro's more powerful hardware, but it is surprising to hear that a hugely successful game like The Witcher 3 -- a title that ha...   read

Nioh would've been such a fitting end-of-the-year game for me. Based on everything we know about Team Ninja's brutal action-RPG and what we've played first-hand, I think it's going to be not only a time sink, but one that requires our darn-...   read

Capcom has locked down a date for our main man Urien's arrival in Street Fighter V, and it's not far off now. He'll be available to season pass holders and sold standalone (purchasable with either Fight Money or real-world money) on Thursda...   read

If you're an Xbox Live Gold member, you have some downloads to queue. Besides this month's remaining Games with Gold offerings -- Assassin's Creed Chronicles: China (Xbox One) and Mirror's Edge (Xbox 360), both of which recently joined the ...   read

The remaster of Grasshopper Manufacture's debut game, The Silver Case, is set for an October 7, 2016 launch on Steam, GOG.com, Playism, and the Humble Store. This represents our first chance to (officially) play an English-language version ...   read

Today marks my first time really looking at Paladins, the new team-based shooter from Smite maker Hi-Rez. So, excuse me if this is well-worn territory by now, but boy does it look familiar. The game comes across as a veritable hodgepodge o...   read

The new Pokémon Generations shorts are, well, exactly that, but they're a nostalgic delight. Particularly this first episode, "The Adventure," which has a cool transition from the Red and Blue opening on Game Boy into a battle into ...   read

The long-awaited Death Star expansion for Star Wars Battlefront drops this Tuesday for folks who have the season pass (and those who are about to give in at last). Finally, everything's coming up [you]! The DLC's main addition is Battle St...   read

Simulation game controller brand Saitek has been with Mad Catz since 2007, but as of this week, it has found a new and arguably much better home: Logitech. The company just paid $13 million for Saitek, which, given the lucrative resurgence ...   read

Square Enix's Tokyo Game Show trailer for Final Fantasy XV delves further into the plot than the last few videos have, so if you're trying to keep that mostly a surprise until November's launch, you may want to hold off. Needless to say, t...   read

[Update: Bandai Namco is now saying that Digimon World: Next Order will be available digitally on PlayStation 4 and PlayStation Vita next year. There will also be a physical PS4 version at retail.] [Update #2: The situation grows weirder! ...   read

The Silver Case feels like a recovered piece of gaming history. Not only had I never played the game due to its Japan-only 1999 release for PlayStation, I hadn't even heard of it until recently, despite the fact that it was Grasshopper Manu...   read

Earlier this year, Capcom drove clue-hunting Resident Evil fans mad with its cryptic "Beginning Hour" demo for Resident Evil 7, but the scavenger hunt is far from done. Break's over! Today, the company issued a "Twilight Version" update for...   read

Before I woke up, a news tip came in today that Ubisoft has begun offering The Crew, its open-word multiplayer-centric racing game, for free on PC. It's a limited-time offer through Uplay, and it doesn't come with the worth-having Wild Run ...   read

I can appreciate that this game, Birthdays the Beginning, won't be for everyone. But as someone totally enamored with ecological simulations in which you watch over living organisms with a careful eye and raise the ecosystem into something...   read

Digimon World: Next Order saw a Japanese PlayStation Vita release back in March, but from the sound of it, Bandai Namco isn't done with the monster-raising RPG quite yet. A listing for a PlayStation 4 version has shown up on the Brazilian r...   read

Oh my gosh, there's another What Did I Do to Deserve This, My Lord!? game in the works. I don't know how that keeps happening, but I'll continue to play this wacky series, even if it drifts away from the monster-breeding dungeon simulation...   read

I didn't always like the Dead Rising series. Far from it, actually. My dour experience with the original wasn't exactly out of the ordinary given its rough edges. I liked the concept, particularly back in 2006, of an open-world zombie game...   read

Nintendo is producing an obligatory limited-edition New 3DS XL as a precursor to Pokémon Sun and Moon. The games themselves won't be out until November 18 (a fact I'd rather stay blissfully ignorant to given just how into 'em I am ri...   read

While Grasshopper Manufacture was at PAX West to show off Let it Die and The Silver Case, during an interview with creator Goichi Suda regarding the latter game, I had to ask about the future. What's next for him? For the studio? More often...   read

The minds behind Rick and Morty and The Stanley Parable are collaborating on a free HTC Vive game called Accounting. If you know anything of their prior work, you'll understand that despite outward appearances, this title isn't just about ...   read

Well, this is a pleasant surprise! I had forgotten there was a new Hot Shots Golf (Everybody's Golf in Europe and Japan) coming to PlayStation 4. While I'm a fairly casual player by superfan standards, I still feel like this is one of thos...   read
