Dragon Quest of the Stars hit North America at just the wrong time earlier in 2020. Arriving almost five years after its initial release in Japan, the free-to-play, gacha RPG reached our shores right around the same time COVID-19 did. ...

Whenever someone needs to be digitally blown up, stabbed, or shot, the overlords at Destructoid always seem to deem me the person for the job. I'm not sure why, given that I'm very clearly the Bernadetta of the editorial team. Regardless, i...

I hope you still have Ghost of Tsushima installed on your PS4. If not, queue that download. Earlier today, Sucker Punch released Legends – a co-op mode with two-player story missions and four-player wave-based survival maps, both of w...

I kinda still can't believe it? Minecraft x Super Smash Bros. But it happened! For years folks have speculated that one of the biggest games on the planet is a no-brainer for an appearance in Smash, exacerbated by the fact that Microso...

I still remember listening to "Simple and Clean" on a CD player on a school bus. Now I'm married and have a family. That's how long Kingdom Hearts has been with us, through thick and thin: through some of the thicker storylines and thi...

There are a lot of schools of thought when it comes to microphone tech, but I've been a Blue (da ba dee da ba daa) man for many years now. The now-Logitech-owned company has a penchant for simplistic designs that are not only effective from...

Rez is absolutely timeless. I can't believe it came out in 2001, but the even crazier realization is that so many powers that be have kept this classic alive for so long. It easily could have died on the Dreamcast and PS2, becoming an urban...

Yakuza: Like a Dragon is the best and worst game to try and preview. On the one hand, there are questions – about the new protagonist, the shift to JRPG combat, and the English VO – that people want answered. On the other, Yakuz...

VR has been innovating for some time now, creating completely new spaces for experiences that demand more physical activity: perhaps best showcased with the 1v1 dueling subgenre. Insomniac did some amazing things in The Unspoken nearly...

Genshin Impact spent most of its time leading up to release as that game people couldn't talk about without mentioning The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. Now that it's out, the similarities and differences between the two titles ...

Two of Call of Duty's finest characters - Farah Karim and Nikolai - will finally arrive as playable operators in Season Six of both Modern Warfare and its accompanying battle royale title, Warzone.Farah made her series debut in 2019's Call ...

In case you missed it, Riot Games dove into the world of tabletop gaming several years back with Mechs vs. Minions, and it kind of ruled. It wasn't just that it had a pretty decent strategic foundation: it was also cleverly designed to prov...

Kingdoms of Amalur slaps. That is all. Wait you want more? Okay fine.

We live in wild, wild times when even Tetris and Bomberman are joining in on the battle royale craze. While Konami naturally doesn't enter the arena as gracefully as Arika did with the former, Super Bomberman R Online is a we...

Marvel's Avengers has been a roller coaster of a game from the announcement all the way up until its launch today: so long as you're a Digital Deluxe owner. We first heard it existed back in 2017, but when Square Enix showed it off at E3 20...

Rogue Company is a difficult game to write about. When I sit down at my computer to type, its bland and basic world begins to fade from my mind, and I struggle to think of anything meaningful to say about it. Despite its diverse cast o...

Little Nightmares was a fun little game. I feel like I can't say that much more than that without spoiling anything: but it was a fun little afternoon romp and a great rainy day activity to have in your back pocket. Based on our brief time ...

Amazon has more money than God. Why can't it get a first-party release right? I...I don't know. But something tells me that they're going to put a little more oomph into New World than their prior efforts.

Tony Hawk is back. Not the man, the game. Well, he's kinda back too, making the rounds promoting the new game. He's also part of a rad new documentary called Pretending I'm a Superman, which is finally hitting general release after a debut ...

Warehouse. Two minutes. Show me what you've got.

It's hard to believe that Horizon Zero Dawn is over three years old at this point, but Sony has so many great new IPs this generation, it's hard to keep track of them all. Bringing Horizon Zero Dawn back into the limelight makes a whole lot...

[Update: Bethesda has since made adjustments to The Legendary Run from when I originally began writing this. They've now increased the amount of SCORE rewarded and the number of daily challenges each day. So, pretty much disregard the math ...

It's time for yet another Magic: The Gathering set, which means that it's time for another Magic: Arena set. As the two formats — paper and digital — debut together, we enter yet another busy year with four sets to jug...

World of Warcraft expansions can be like Star Trek movies: every other one nails it, at least in the eyes of the community. While I adored many aspects of Battle for Azeroth, it was one of Blizzard's most heavily criticized expansions yet, ...
