I'm Destructoid's resident Dog and Cat Games Correspondent Extraordinaire. You might have noticed I changed my avatar to match this distinction. So of course anything that comes through the tipline that mentions dogs or cats gets an instant...

Developer Frogwares has quietly been making a name for itself over the past dozen years or so with its take on the Arthur Conan Doyle’s iconic Sherlock Holmes. While its titles have never been the darling of games critics, the company...

I've made it no secret that while horror is my definite jam, I'm a gigantic wiener and don't play nearly as many horror games as I should/would like to. A weak constitution mixed with anxiety prevents me from enjoying the genre like I would...

Bertil Hörberg is probably the only Swedish name I know. I can't pronounce it to save my life, but it's a name that's been at the forefront of my mind when it comes to the games industry. Hörberg, if you are unaware, is the creato...

I’ve been pretty high on Lapis X Labyrinth since it was first announced by NIS America late last year. With its adorably cute characters, well-drawn levels, and fast-paced combat, it quickly became a game I needed in my Switch to play...

The first three chapters of A Plague Tale: Innocence paint a harrowing picture. Its vision of a 14th-century France is full of violence and death.  The Hundred Years' War and the Inquisition's looming shadow stand poised to unspool a w...

Each year, NIS America puts on an event in San Francisco for the press where the company highlights the games it's publishing in the coming year. Last February, the talk of the show was SNK Heroines: Tag-Team Frenzy, the bright and sparkly ...

For the past few weeks, I’ve been obsessing a bit about the Resident Evil 2 remake. Not the game itself which I’m sure is very fine, but rather the mod community that keeps thinking of ways to absolutely blow me away. Whether it...

It's been quite some time since the last Devil May Cry game came out. Even if you consider Ninja Theory's DmC as a proper sequel, almost an entire console generation has gone by since players were able to control Dante. It only makes sense ...

Viz Media is easily one of the largest names in anime and manga outside of Japan. Since its humble beginnings in 1986, its grown to become the largest publisher of graphic novels in the United States. Now, the company is dipping its toes in...

A few weeks ago, it was revealed NIS America managed to snipe away another well-regarded niche franchise from Xseed Games when it announced it would be localizing Trails of Cold Steel III for the PlayStation 4. That title is looking to cap ...

I have to admit my perception of Devolver Digital has been somewhat limited. Until just last week, I primarily knew the company for its candy-cane colored logo with the old-west font, its ostentatious E3 presentations featuring Chief S...

My lack of familiarity with the Metro franchise is painfully evident to everyone in the room less than 10 seconds after I’m handed the controller. As my comrades on the Aurora, the massive train jettisoning Artyom, Anna, and the rest ...

Depending on whom you ask, 2018 was either a great year for gaming or a veritable shit-hole. Yes, the year was lit up by some absolutely wonderful experiences from both indie and AAA developers alike, but there were also loads of misses, so...

2018 ended up being a better year for the Nintendo 3DS than I expected. In addition to seeing some strong ports of older games like Captain Toad and Luigi’s Mansion, it got an incredible compilation of microgames in the form of WarioW...

Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse hasn't even released yet and Sony is already planning sequels and spinoffs for the animated feature. According to THR, Sony is already in the planning stages of two new Spider-Verse movies. One movie is goi...

2019 is looking to be the year of retro FPS revivals. With Ion Maiden and Amid Evil both targeting Q1 2019, fans of labyrinthine level design and key hunting are in for a treat. If you just can't get enough of those old shooters, then the r...

[Update: After our story went live, Digital Extremes reached out to Destructoid to further clarify the early days of Warframe, offering the following quote: We've been making games for 25 years; we always knew we had something special with...

It's weird that I keep on forgetting about Alita: Battle Angel. At the beginning of the year, I couldn't wait to get the chance to see this movie for a whole host of reasons. Not only has it been a passion project for James Cameron and Rob...

The more I hear about HBO's Watchmen, the more intrigued I am by it. Whether it was showrunner Damon Lindelof's bizarre letter about the project or how Dave Gibbons quoted the series to temper fan expectation, I can't help but be excited. E...

Because we live in a world where no holidays exist between Halloween and Christmas according to candy cane filled psychopaths, we're already getting into the Christmas spirit! With The Grinch releasing this Friday, why not dump another...

Growing up in the early 2000's, Teen Titans was my jam. I distinctly remember watching it on Toonami on Saturday nights right alongside classics like Yu Yu Hakusho and Megas XLR. The action, plotlines, and comedy were all that my young, im...

Has The Purge franchise really been around for five years? It seems like the series has been around for much longer, but it never really made as big of a splash in the pop culture zeitgeist as people thought it would. I mean, with a premise...

There's no denying the greatness of Alan Moore's Watchmen. The 1987 story took a dark look at the superhero realm, filled it with riotous prerogatives and semi-retired heroes forced into a choice of underground vigilante or common...

Comic book adaptations are all the rage today, yet I don't think anyone was expecting CBS to announce that they just ordered a pilot for a TV series based on DC's Secret Six series. The series is somewhat similar to Suicide Squad, where a g...
