It may be a tad reductive to compare every horror game that features a small town filled with creepy fog and odd characters to Silent Hill, but Mundaun definitely has the vibe of Konami’s long-dormant series. Rather than outright jump scares - although it has its share of those - it instead aims to fill the player with dread and confusion as they wander around the countryside trying to solve puzzles and avoid odd-moving creatures made out of hay....

You might have seen various streamers complaining about changes made to Fortnite this week, but Ninja has not been one of them. The basic premise of Fortnite is incredibly simple. One hundred players land on an island, gather weapons and materials, and then proceed to eliminate each other until only one of them is left. With a premise that simple, Epic has had to constantly evolve Fortnite for it to become the juggernaut that it is today....
No Man’s Sky is one of the most comprehensive games out there when playing in the sci-fi genre. With its recent DLC Origins, players are not only given more upgrades to certain aspects of the game like the UI graphics, but Hello Games have also added billions of planets to the already burgeoning universe that has proven to be one of the largest maps in the known gaming universes. While there are tons of games out in the sci-fi genre, this one, in particular, goes above and beyond in ensuring that players get the best bang for their buck in terms of gameplay....
This update comes from one of the two guys responsible for the original game - Tarn Adams - during the recent Guerrilla Collective virtual games festival. In this video, he walks us through where things are at in the overhaul project. They’re still at a relatively early stage in the process, but things are already looking great. The original Dwarf Fortress, which came out in 2006, built up quite the reputation as being a particularly (actually quite mind-blowingly) impressive piece of gaming, primarily due to its sheer, granular detail....
A collection of the first three Oddworld games will be making its way to the Nintendo Switch on May 27, Microids has announced. The collection contains Oddworld: New N’ Tasty, Oddworld: Munch’s Oddysee, and Oddworld: Stranger’s Wrath all on the same cartridge. The games won’t be updated or enhanced from the already-released Switch ports, but the fact that they’re all bundled together will be good for fans. By far the most interesting element of the collection is the striking cover art that features Abe’s head blowing up as factories smoke behind him, with some art of Munch’s Oddysee and Stranger’s Wrath surrounding him....
Every year, fans of the Madden series look forward to not just news on gameplay features and changes, but also to who is selected as the game’s cover athlete.

Players are currently busy playing games of Lucioball and earning loot boxes as part of the annual Overwatch Summer Games, but Blizzard has not been resting its laurels during the event. The studio are currently testing a series of new character balance changes on the PTR, one of which involve some big tweaks to Doomfist’s fearsome Rocket Punch ability. The gauntlet-wielding Overwatch character has quickly become a fan favorite among players for his high mobility and ability to deal out massive amounts of damage, but with the implementation of the latest PTR patch, Doomfist’s painful Rocket Punch has had its hitbox shrunk, effectively nerfing the attack....
After months of speculating who the 32nd hero in Overwatch would be, we finally have our answer: Echo. The female-inspired AI character has been in Blizzard’s back pocket since before the game’s release, and it’ll soon be available within Overwatch for the very first time. We first got a glimpse of Echo within the 2018 Overwatch animated short, Reunion, where it was revealed that the character had been locked inside a payload before being rescued by McCree....

One Overwatch streamer stumbled onto a very interesting Discord server. While many who play video games on stream use the voice chat service to communicate and play with friends, it seems that some gamers are using it to sabotage steamers. Twitch streamer Arrge found a specific Discord server that hires “hitmen” to stream snipe popular players. Many of the players who were listed are popular Overwatch streamers on Twitch among others, with the list of priority streamers including TimTheTatman, Kephrii, and thebasti0nmain, while secondary targets include names like Holiwhirl and Violet....
A recent Overwatch update has addressed a controversy that has gained new traction due to recent events, leading to the removal of a character specific spray. Fortunately for Blizzard, this has less to do with any specific problems with Overwatch characters or from the company’s own actions, and more with the way that the view of certain images have changed lately. This latest controversy comes in the wake of the Black Lives Matter movement, which has brought a number of controversial images to public attention, including an otherwise popular spray in Overwatch....
