Microsoft just capped off its X019, the annual celebration of everything Xbox. Well, technically only the news reveal portion has wrapped. The rest of X019 is a fan event that runs through the weekend. Xbox used its 90 minutes mostly as an ...

I've seen every BlizzCon in the history of the company, and this one has got to be one of the weirdest. After the crowd turned on Blizzard last year over Diablo Immortal, we got Diablo IV in the best way possible: a really good horrifi...

Apple Arcade launched on September 19 on mobile devices, and as of today, is available in most regions for the iPad and Apple TV. That's a decent spread of devices for folks who don't own an iPhone, and a Mac rollout is scheduled for later ...

No Batman! It turns out the tenuous links between the recent Batman game teases and Sony's State of Play were just that: tenuous. I saw it coming from a mile away, so no worries there. We did get some actual news though today, in this sligh...

Man Nintendo's Indie World Showcases are such a breath of fresh air. I love the hosts and the chill tone, and we usually get a few big announcements in addition to a general celebration of the indie scene. The big ones this time are undoubt...

So uh, the Geoff Keighley is in Death Stranding Show Gamescom Opening Night Live ceremony just happened, and there were a few announcements worth looking at. We got another glimpse at Death Stranding, and even though so much of it was overl...

Each year Destructoid does our recaps a little differently. I lay my opinions on the line, provide full breakdowns of each and every story that happens in each conference/stream (it takes days from our lives to be this meticulous, I assure ...

Nintendo is usually the one to close out E3's conference run. And typically, they're the ones that get that last chance to wow us after so many other events, year after year, fail to delight. Last night Square Enix brought a much-needed spa...

So Square Enix kind of brought it right? Look at all of the goodness below and compare it to their E3 Showcase last year. Night and day! 2018 Square Enix had no Final Fantasy VII Remake. 2019 Square Enix had a truck load of it. We got a loo...

Keanu Reeves: you are John Wick. You're also the best thing about E3 this year. It's been a tepid E3 so far. I'm not saying that, you are, readers. Let's Pokemon go to the polls! Microsoft is "winning" so far by a wide margin, wit...

This is the chillest (and not the illest) E3 in recent memory. So many announcements, even from major publishers, are being jettisoned off rather than discussed in conferences (we got that today with a heap of news on Assassin's Creed, Stee...

So there were a lot of game reveals at the PC Gaming Show. Most of them were indie, but so what? We got reveal after reveal here without the constant interruptions from skits, goofy Drake's Cakes interlude commercials, and the hosts really ...

UploadVR's inaugural E3VR showcase was low key today (you may have missed it), providing a big roundup of a bunch of upcoming VR projects. We got a new look at some previously confirmed ones and a few announcements that ranged from new game...

So Bethesda isn't quite an industry giant like say, Microsoft, Sony, or Nintendo. They aren't going to bring the heat as much as a "big three" so to speak, so it makes sense to keep expectations in check. With Bethesda at E3, my expectation...

While EA technically kicked off E3 yesterday, Microsoft actually did it today. No, it wasn't as "oh hey Devil May Cry 5 was announced with a practically crying Hideaki Itsuno coming out on stage thanking his fans for sticking...

Thank God we don't have a billion proper live conferences at E3 this year with both Sony and EA pulling out. I mean sure, it's nice to laugh at blunders every now and then and really low energy stage hosts that look like they want to be any...

April Fools is here again, and for some the best way to fight the weaponization of it in the games industry is to log off the 'net entirely. I totally get it, even if I'm used to triple-checking things and even if April Fools jokes occasion...

My eyes are all melty and I'm dying to dig into Smash Ultimate, but let's take a moment to recap the major video game news from The Game Awards 2018. There were some genuinely surprising moments. For instance: a new Marvel Ultimate Alliance...

Microsoft just wrapped X018, its "celebration of all things Xbox." What went down? A lot of crowd cheering, an on-stage selfie with Square Enix's Shinji Hashimoto, and a release date for Crackdown 3. While much of the show's news was Game P...

Not bad, Blizzard. After a slow delayed start and a proverbial passing of the presidential torch from Mike Morhaime to J. Allen Brack, the show got rolling. The Lucio-Oh's cereal and the free Destiny 2 PC news came early on before...

Nintendo might not have dropped a ton of big reveals on us but we did get a whole lot of info on a whole lot of indie games today during their summer Nindies Showcase. Hyper Light Drifter arrives on September 6 (with pre-orders up toda...

Oh hey Nindie Direct, didn't see you in there. No one really did outside of random murmurs from indie studios that they were all mysteriously "showing something off" in the early morning today, which led to speculation of a Nindies Direct s...

Yesterday we summed up E3's conference situation so far, and it was looking really good for Microsoft. Towering over above the others with a 76.6% approval rating (for context, we provided polls at the end of every conference for readers to...

Um, yes? Nintendo brought it. I mean, you have to like Super Smash Bros. as that was the vast majority of the Direct today, but since nearly everyone on the planet has enjoyed that series at one point or another, I think you'll find so...

Let's recap E3 so far. It hasn't even started yet (technically that's tomorrow) but we've seen nearly all of the conferences it has to offer outside of Nintendo. EA went up first and pooched it. They're the lowest rated conference right now...
