As a way to say "sorry" for Fornite's server outages and a delay of the 50v50 mode, Epic Games is kicking off a double XP weekend. Unfortunately there was a database issue last week, and when the system went back online it buckled under the...

Capcom is putting some effort into Mega Man's 30th anniversary, mostly in the form of the first brand new Mega Man game in ages (11), but also by way of re-releases and events. One example of the latter is the newly announced Mega Man ...

Capcom TV did another one of its lively streams, and in addition to showing off some upcoming features for existing games like Monster Hunter: World, they also gave some screentime to the Mega Man X Collection series, which will be hos...

CCP Games, creator of the equally famous and infamous EVE Online, had a lot to celebrate last week. Mere minutes from their offices in Reykjavik Iceland, at the Harpa concert hall, they hosted their 14th Fanfest: a celebration of the game a...

The Wii U and 3DS have a single title each release this week on the Nintendo eShop (Aqua Moto Racing Utopia and Cycle of Eternity: Space Anomaly respectively), but once again the landscape is dominated by Switch. The now dominate ...

NIS has revealed the look for Disgaea Refine, its upcoming remaster of the original Disgaea, set for PS4 and Switch later this year. You can get a quick comparison shot below between the two visual styles (old and new), and I have to say it...

You might not get bloody fingers trying to best the new God of War, but there's definitely a learning curve, especially if you start with the hard difficulty setting. Go ahead and do that by the way, as you can swap between easy, normal, an...

Although the Eureka zone of Final Fantasy XIV arrived roughly a month ago, it's taken me a really long time to process just how I feel about it. Billed as a return to old school Final Fantasy XI sensibilities, the landscape has dr...

For what feels like decades Diablo fans have wanted a playable Deckard Cain. The old loremaster was an immediate favorite after his debut in Diablo, and his involvement in future iterations on top of his classic rap only helped fuel th...

Immortal Redneck came out last year on PC and hit PS4 and Xbox One several months ago, but the jury was still out on the "TBA" Switch edition. Well wonder no more, as developer Crema has confirmed that the Switch version is set for a May 10...

In four days you can grab yourself a shiny (well, we can't really use that turn of phrase freely in Pokemon as it means something completely different) new legendary Raikou or Entei if you're a 3DS Pokemon player. The distribution even...

Competitive platformer TowerFall has enjoyed a long, long lifespan. What started off as an Ouya release in 2013 eventually blossomed into PS4 a year later, then Vita in 2015, Xbox One in 2017, and Switch this year. We've know...

It's weird to watch the dichotomy between the DeNA mobile Nintendo realm and the traditional portable and console Nintendo universe we've known for decades play out before our eyes. Although the Big N has slid comfortably into the skin...

The new Pokemon is as exciting as hell. We're finally getting a fully-fledged console Pokemon that isn't an arena-style variant, and if the Switch really takes off and spawns a Switch 2.0 or a future Switch 2, consoles could be th...

Do you remember Microsoft's new avatar system? It was supposed to arrive last year, but was unceremoniously pushed back to 2018. Now it's set for an imminent rollout, and this new leaked video (from YouTube, which was taken down but mirrore...

Psyvariar has been around for a long while. Originally it debuted in Japanese arcades in 2000 from developer Success Corporation, but it's since gone on to develop an audience on PS2, spawn several upgraded iterations, and a sequel. It was ...

Zelda is one of the most conducive series for amazing fan art. It's not just that most of the games in the series, 2D or 3D, are gorgeous, but the fact that there's so many different art styles to choose from. Artist Raerega opted...

Zelda: Breath of the Wild had a glorious aesthetic to it: bright and vibrant, to the point where even the mechanical aspects of the game felt like they had life. But this concept art from the Master Works 30th Anniversary book are something...

Not every game needs to be open world. Although open world projects have been around for a long while, in recent years we've seen publishers take things to the extreme (Ubisoft, most notably) -- to the point where nearly every one of their ...

Anthem is due out in early 2019 and we still don't know a whole lot about it. Initially slated for 2018 on PC, PS4, and Xbox One it's seen at least one delay, and may very easily see another. A recent update from BioWare General Manager Cas...

Cosmic Star Heroine was a definite example of a Kickstarter success story, raising a modest $132,000 back in late 2013, and delivering the project on PC and PS4 in April of 2017. There's still more work to be done though, including the upco...

It feels like progress on Octopath Traveler has been moving quickly, as Square Enix and Acquire didn't announce it until 2017 -- now it's almost out. We've gotten a decent look at the art, soundtrack, and general idea of the game (you ...

Bad news, everyone -- Bandai Namco has just announced that Dark Souls Remastered on Switch has been pushed back from May 25 until summer. Everything else (PC, PS4, Xbox One) is still on target for May 25, it's just Switch that's been moved ...

So I'm sure someone noticed this since June 30, 2017 when the Master Trials DLC first launched for Zelda: Breath of the Wild, but this is the first many are hearing of it. As discovered by Kamuilyn on Reddit, the poses that the monks are ma...

Sometimes I don't really have the words to explain my admiration for folks in the MMO community. A lot of folks have a great deal of passion for the genre, and it shows in all sorts of amazing ways. For Lensecandy, it's recreating the Blood...
