Garlic, wooden stakes, the sun -- these are all things that vampires must avoid. For one specific vampire, "fall release dates" can be added to the list. Dontnod Entertainment's Vampyr has been pushed back from late 2017 to spring 201...

Bluepoint is putting in work on Shadow of the Colossus for PlayStation 4. Following our first look back at E3 and more recent word that game director and designer Fumito Ueda had sent over suggestions for the remake, we have a fresh trailer...

After an Amazon leak some Square Enix rep was like "no no Noctis isn't official yet please change your article." Yet, his inclusion in Dissidia Final Fantasy NT was officially confirmed in a new trailer revealed at Sony's pre-TGS...

Code Vein has been bouncing on and off my radar for a while now. That doesn't really change today with this boss fight playthrough from IGN. It's still a dodge-roll-heavy action-RPG with some vampiric stuff going on that's very clearly taki...

Earlier this year, Valve said goodbye to Chet Faliszek, a long-time writer for the company who worked on the Half-Life 2 episodes, Portal, its sequel, and both Left 4 Dead games. At the time, he said his departure wasn't "exciting or drama ...

We're getting closer and closer to a time when we can all say we've seen a Tomb Raider movies without Angelina Jolie, and as such we now have a poster for that movie. As you can see in the poster this new film takes its cues from the r...

There is so much happening in Biomutant that I'm at a loss for where to begin. Maybe calling it Jak and Daxter meets Devil May Cry meets Enslaved would be a good place to start. Or maybe a better jumping off point would ...

Back when Bandai Namco announced Kamen Rider City Wars for the Android and iPhone, the trailer didn't reveal how it would play. Thankfully, their second video confirms that it's a mix between a strategy RPG and a beat 'em up. Aside from bat...

This new trailer for Assassin's Creed: Origins makes one thing abundantly clear: Protagonist Bayek doesn't really know who he'll be fighting. A secret organization called The Order of the Ancients runs Egypt from the shadows. They hav...

Team Cherry has detailed its next free content update for Hollow Knight following Hidden Dreams. Befitting its theme, The Grimm Troupe is coming next month with a new quest and a number of other big-ticket items, and you'll be able to reach...

Today, September 13, is the one-year anniversary of ReCore's release. In our review, I scored it a 4 out of 10, citing a ton of technical issues and a needlessly drawn-out end-game as factors that overshadowed how good the first two-thirds ...

I went into Metroid: Samus Returns with what can only be described as pure caution. With such a storied pedigree as a whole and given my personal history with the series, I wasn't sure that Nintendo and MercurySteam could pull it off. ...

All the rumors have come true; Okami HD is officially happening and it's coming to PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC in 4K. All versions will be available both digitally and physically in North America and Europe on December 12, 2017 fo...

You might remember Patrick covering Children of Morta just over a year ago. He previewed the "narrative-driven" hack-and-slash game about a family of guardians fending off the spread of monsters and corruption to their mountain, noting it h...

Dungeon crawling is inherently selfish. They're a bit of video game risk versus reward in the sense that they exist to test the player and (theoretically) leave them better equipped for future challenges. They play to a loop of constantly i...

The main reason I wanted to get Cave Story+ on Nintendo Switch was the promise of two-player co-op. As these things often go, I grew restless and ended up buying the game early, working my up to Curly Brace before forcing myself to stop pla...

Maybe the strongest praise for Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor necessitates pointing out its most glaring flaw. The game was a darling, managing to please fans and earn critical acclaim. All of that in spite of the fact that the final b...

They're killing gods with peach pits. An ill bull was the motivator for my PAX West demo with Assassin's Creed: Origins, as he was a worshiped deity in ancient Egypt. Peach pits are apparently toxic when ingested. This livestock was on the...

After watching the well-acted Dark Tower movie (and the fact that I can only praise the acting tells you a lot about the movie) I decided to read the books all over again in order to wash the taste out of my mouth. Getting back into th...

Just the other day, I caught Nioh out of the corner of my eye and wished I had a clone to level up my character during the day, as I worked, so I could finally dig into the Defiant Honor DLC. I'm way behind, to say nothing of the heightened...

Code Vein is in the peripheral at the moment for me. I'm to going all in on it just yet, as Bandai Namco has produced some alright hack and slash games in the past, but with Shift (God Eater) at the helm, it'll probably turn out alright. Re...

As everyone patiently waits for Red Dead Redemption 2, Rockstar is bringing something to tide us over with enhanced ports of L.A. Noire to modern consoles. All versions release on November 14, 2017 and will include all the DLC previous...

My history with the Monster Hunter series is painfully, regretfully abrupt. I attempted to get into it years ago, on PlayStation Portable, but bounced off so hard that I can't even confidently say which installment I tried. That experience ...

One of the gimmicks on the Nintendo Switch is the ability to split the controller in half for instant multiplayer action. A bunch of games allow you to play with a single Joy-Con and apparently Travis Strikes Again will do just the same. In...

I couldn't be more thrilled that SteamWorld Dig is getting a follow-up. I loved its core loop of digging, collecting treasure, and heading up to the surface to buy upgrades that enabled you to delve deeper and more efficiently, opening up n...
