Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice is just a month away at this point and although I've been avoiding the chance to take in every gameplay video I am okay with digesting this 30-second clip. It gives us a quick look at Lady Butterfly, a boss shown o...

Capcom is once again focusing in on the musical aspect of the Devil May Cry series for its latest entry. Every main character has their own theme, and of course there's going to be a lot of music to kick some ass to. The best part? It ...

Remakes in the gaming space have kind of gone the way of the dodo. With HD remasters being a lot easier to produce, most publishers don’t feel the need to commission full-on restorations of their back catalogs anymore. The last time w...

Just last week Nintendo and Platinum revealed Astral Chain by way of a Nintendo Direct and man I was immediately taken by it. The neo-Tokyo feel is right up my alley, especially when combined with what seems to be a varied combat system.&nb...

Crackdown is a franchise that's built on a hollow structure. It's unapologetically open-ended, encouraging the player to get distracted by whatever flashes across the screen. Crackdown doesn't funnel anyone toward anything. This approach pr...

Earlier this year, the Destructoid staff posted their list of the 2019 games that we're most excited about. A variety of diverse and interesting games made the list, including a few that have already launched to critical acclaim. For m...

Go through video game history with this contest for Evoland for Switch, Xbox One, and PS4! Now this one looks pretty interesting. I've played plenty of 8-bit, 16-bit, 32-bit, and 3D RPGs throughout my life, but never one game that tried to ...

In a pretty awesome marketing stunt, Capcom Japan has partnered with Triumph Motorcycles to create a replica of Dante's sick ride from Devil May Cry 5. Sporting an incredibly slick paint job and custom details like "Ebony & Ivory" on th...

If you held off buying Dead Cells for Nintendo Switch because you knew the developers were going to tighten up the less-than-perfect frame rate, today's the day to see what the fuss is about. Motion Twin has brought its game-changing 1.1 up...

Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night has had a long development cycle: at least, longer than most people expected. Originally, the 2015-launched Kickstarter was set for a March 2017 release, but things changed and several delays came into the ...

I didn't expect to play a mech action game and a Tetris battle royale on my Switch this evening, but then again, it's a Nintendo Direct day. Despite tuning in for years, I still never know exactly what to expect. Daemon X Machina, that siz...

Little more than two weeks ago, I took a tempered approach to a retailer leak that the Assassin's Creed III remaster was being developed for Switch. With Assassin's Creed Switch rumors stacking up, it was tough to wholehearte...

While the big Nintendo Direct news that turned heads today was most definitely, without a shadow of a doubt, the Link's Awakening remake, I was the guy who went "yeah but what's Astral Chain though," as I tilted my head in amusement. T...

Anyone willing to play Assassin's Creed Odyssey a second time will get the opportunity to see how the other half lives while still retaining level, stats, and gear from their original playthrough. New Game+ is coming to Assassin's Cre...

Wonderful 101, like many Wii U exclusives circa 2013, was enjoyed by a quiet collective. It was a nice within a niche: that just so happened to be developed by PlatinumGames, who increases their cachet on a near daily basis (even more ...

Everyone knows I love options. I'm the kind of person who plays things for life, so if I can completely customize my experience with something, I'll likely do it at some point. Having just replayed several old school Resident Evil games two...

Assassin's Creed Odyssey is a long-ass game, to say nothing of its DLC, but if you're somehow looking for an excuse to go through the island-hopping adventure again, Ubisoft is prepping New Game+ mode. Look, I just do what the tea tells me!...

Dante, like Bayonetta, is a character a lot of people want to see in just about any action crossover. He has such a huge arsenal of moves at this point that a team would have to even pare him down, allowing for all sorts of technical c...
