Last year, Platinum Games tweeted an image that very clearly teased The Wonderful 101 for Nintendo Switch. It seemed like an announcement was coming and fans got excited about the possibility of having one of the Wii U's overlooked gems mak...

I was highly skeptical of the soft God of War Norse reboot. I'm always willing to give something a shot, but taking the fast and frenetic combat of the original series and slowing it down to focus on a father and son relationship? It's...

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...

PlatinumGames' first ever mobile game, World of Demons, was just revealed. (Well, its first mobile game outside of the Japan-only RPG Lost Order.) Both the developer and publisher DeNA have one clear goal with this project: To make this fee...

If there's one consistent thing that Platinum has proven in the 10 years since it was founded, it's that the Osaka-based studio knows how to make one hell of an action game. For its next project, Platinum is venturing into unknown waters to...

I finished Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice and felt like something of a failure. This is an incredibly well put together experience, and I -- a guy whose job it is to have interesting thoughts about games -- have no real interesting thoug...

It's a heck of a week for Monster Hunter World. Capcom is prepping a free update for April 18 at 5:00pm Pacific that adds the shiny Elder Dragon Kulve Taroth. The beast will only be around for a limited time as part of a new Siege quest typ...

Maelstrom is a cool, well-executed idea for game. It pits humans, orcs, and dwarves against each other in naval combat. Players will shoot, ram, and sink one another while trying to find loot and maintain a safe distance from gigantic sea m...

You'll find a lot of debate on what the best version of Mega Man X3 is, but for the purpose of Capcom's upcoming Mega Man X Legacy Collection, the SNES original is going to be represented over the PS1, Saturn or PC ports. Maybe this has to ...

Is it the right time for Onimusha to return? Earlier this month, Capcom filed trademarks for Onimusha in multiple regions, rekindling hope for fans of the early 2000s action-adventure series. With games like Nioh catching on in a surprising...

Spin-off pseudo-sequel Terraria: Otherworld has officially been cancelled. In a post on the official Terraria forms, the developer Re-Logic has detailed that the quality of the product after three years of development was not where they wan...

Thunder Lotus Games was onto something as soon as they released the art for Jotun. Set to a Norse mythology backdrop with action puzzle framing, Jotun is a gorgeous hand-drawn adventure. With a short five hour-ish runtime it's a nice way to...

When you're a child of four, you do everything with your brothers and sisters. You play together, you eat together, you even get haircuts together. And, if one of you is due for a dentist appointment, all of you are. There needs to be an or...

Netflix has renewed Jessica Jones for a third season only a month after the release of the second. Yes, that's right. Everyone's favorite PI/vigilante/alcoholic will be back for more in the near future. Jessica Jones Season 2 released las...

Fatshark's co-op melee action game Warhammer: Vermintide 2 pulled in half a million sales in its first week and now, five weeks in, the PC title has passed the million-units-sold milestone. That timetable is "far quicker than we ever expect...

Microsoft have announced that, as part of next week's Xbox Live Gold Free Play Days promotion, Xbox One owners will be able to run around in battle royale title PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds without dropping a dime.Between April 19 and Apri...

The stealth action genre used to be fertile grounds. You didn’t have far to look for an experience catering to that very specific niche. Syphon Filter, Tenchu, Thief, Metal Gear Solid, Splinter Cell, Hitman; these were all games that ...

Nintendo Switch owners won't have to wait indefinitely for Joakim Sandberg's wonderful action-adventure title Iconoclasts. As confirmed by the developer today, it's officially coming over. The Switch version is being handled by MP2 Games, ...

God of War releases in a mere 10 days, but developer Sony Santa Monica did some last-minute scrambling recently. After showing a new gameplay video last week, many viewers fixated on one thing: This game looks dang good, but that on-sc...

For months I've been anticipating Moonlighter, a beautiful looking top-down action RPG that deals with dungeon delving and shopkeeping. The latter has been done before but not as often as it should be, and now we only have to wait a month a...

I'm surprised that in the four years it's been since the anime has blown up (which in turn reinvigorated the older manga), we haven't seen more Attack on Titan homages. The idea of one warrior versus giant Godzilla-esque creatures is t...

One of the main selling points for Dark Souls: Remastered is a smoother and more stable frame rate, and even though recent footage has been encouraging in that regard, we've still wondered how Blighttown would fare given how poorly it ran i...

Watch Dogs 2 was a pretty good representation of the hacking community that has grown over the years, but it did have one big flaw. These supposed nobodies were running around with near superhuman bullet resistance and blowing shit up with ...

I hate feeding into the stereotype of press comparing things to Dark Souls. When giving Dark Devotion a shot at PAX this weekend, I couldn’t really think of what else to call this at first glance. There is a stamina meter that gove...

While I pride myself on being open to new things, one of the few styles of gaming I’m just not a fan of is the burgeoning survival genre. These games aren’t similar to how some might associate "survival" in gaming (Resident Ev...
