Reaching the third boss of Othercide and seeing her name is the “Maid” may make you think you’re in for an easy time. Make no mistake, this Maid is going to mop the floor with your blood if you go in without a plan. This is a boss fight unlike any other in the game, not only having more skills to use against you than any boss before her, but it also adds a new element to your team you’ll need to be ready to take advantage of if you intend to survive this wicked creature....

People Can Fly, the studio behind Painkiller and Bulletstorm, is having a modern resurgence. After years of remastering and porting Bulletstorm, as well as helping Epic Games with Fortnite: Save the World, People Can Fly’s prepared to put out its original game Outriders. It seems that People Can Fly’s partnership with Square Enix to create Outriders is now leading to bigger and better things. The studio recently confirmed that it’s working on not one, but two additional AAA games on top of Outriders....

Many of the biggest Xbox One games have received sizable updates to give them 4K resolution support and other enhancements when played on Xbox One X. Unsurprisingly, more games are in line to receive Xbox One X updates, with Blizzard preparing a patch for its popular hero shooter Overwatch that will give it 4K resolution when played on Microsoft’s latest console. According to Blizzard, an Xbox One X update is already in the works for Overwatch, though the studio stopped short of providing a specific date it will be available....

New information has been revealed in the case of former pro Overwatch League player Ted ‘Silkthread’ Wang and his fine for discussing ‘hate symbols.’ Silkthread has posted the email he received from the League, revealing the details of the accusations he received for posting about Pepe the frog. Back in season 1 of the pro Overwatch league, Silkthread was playing for the Los Angeles Valiant. It was during his time here that he posted a tweet asking, “Does anyone else love Pepe the frog?...

It seems Pathfinder’s goblin alchemist Fumbus is taking on a starring role in his own 40-page standalone comic book adventure fittingly named Pathfinder: Fumbus. While Fumbus - the “(not-so) shining example of what Goblin-kind can be” - is on center stage in this new chapter, players can expect appearances from other familiar characters like Seoni, Ezren, and a bunch more. This new Fumbus-y Pathfinder adventure was announced on Kickstarter a few days ago alongside a new campaign to help raise funds for it....

It’s been a busy few weeks for Monster Hunter World players as not only has Capcom brought back many of the previously offered event quests, but the developer recently added a brand new monster for players to hunt as well. Known as Kulve Taroth, players need to work together to track down and slay the golden monster. Outside of that and following on the heels of the Spring Blossom Festival as well as the Mega Man event, Capcom has now made its latest crossover event live featuring, Dante from Devil May Cry....

From the roaring introductory distortion of The Bends to the sweet but sombre opening of Street Spirit, Radiohead’s discography spans and transcends volumes (eh? eh? Sorry, please keep reading). Stapled by Thom Yorke’s haunting falsetto and Johnny Greenwood’s daunting but delicate synths, a lot of people are keen to dismiss this band despite being a major player in the shaping of a coherently dissonant ‘90s sound. I’m here to say that people should not only listen to Radiohead, but that game developers should look to them for inspiration....

Following the announcement of Mortal Kombat 11: Aftermath last week, NetherRealm Studios has continued to get fans hyped through new information and trailers. Earlier this week, the studio put out a brand new trailer showing gameplay for Sheeva, Fujin, and the next guest character, RoboCop. Many fans have wondered how the usually stiff robot cop from the future would handle and based on the trailer, he looks to fit right in....

Sometimes a long-running TV show finds itself linked to a certain holiday. Community had Christmas. The Simpsons has Halloween. Brooklyn 99 had Halloween, then changed it to Cinco de Mayo for scheduling reasons. Saturday Night Live has…Election Day, I guess? I probably should have thought this through a bit more. While Mystery Science Theater 3000 has done a handful of Christmas-themed episodes (one major one per host, at least), the series has a much deeper relationship with Thanksgiving....

That’s right. Jeff Goldblum, beloved snarky mathematician in the equally-beloved Jurassic Park movies, is reprising his role once more. Jurassic World Evolution just got at least 2000% more Goldblum. As fans around the world will know, the next movie, Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom, is set for release on June 22 this year. It promises to build on the dramatic spectacle that was the first, centering around the Dinosaur Protection Group and their efforts to rescue the rampaging reptiles, which had been roaming free on the island since the destruction of the Jurassic World theme park....

The Last of Us 2 can’t seem to catch a break as Naughty Dog continues to be called out for mistakes both perceived and real. The latest in this series of unfortunate events is the studio’s use of a cover of New Order’s “True Faith,” which it used without giving credit to the original cover artist. If the situation sounds confusing, that’s because it is to an extent. Lotte Kestner covered New Order’s “True Faith” for her album titled Stolen which released in 2011....

Netflix’s Resident Evil is kicking off a new era for the franchise on the small screen. After years of movie adaptations starring Milla Jovovich and directed by Paul W. S. Anderson, the franchise is shifting gears to tell a story unlike any we’ve ever seen on the big screen or in the games. This new Resident Evil series ditches Chris and Claire Redfield, Leon S. Kennedy, and Jill Valentine to tell a modern-day story about Albert Wesker and his family....

Another month of avoiding social contact lies ahead, which means our old pal Netflix is likely to keep us company a little more than usual in the warm month of June. If you’re planning to close the curtains, pop the popcorn and binge until you can’t feel feelings anymore, the streaming service will certainly have you covered. June will see the return of 13 Reasons Why for its fourth and final season, Queer Eye will be back for another a cathartic cryfest, a new season of F Is For Family also awaits, as do further blocks of Ryan Murphy’s The Politician and German time-bending sci-fi series, Dark....

With the deluge of details produced last week for Grand Theft Auto V, it would be understandable if Rockstar Games, revealing new information on the game for the first time since its November 2011 announcement trailer, decided to take a break; to relax, sit in the sun, and be a game studio like all the other game studios. But, well… you know how it is. After Rockstar finally offered a definitive portrait for Grand Theft Auto V’s characters (including three protagonists), mission structures, gameplay traits, and the open world of Los Santos, the studio has confirmed today that the second Grand Theft Auto V trailer – scheduled last week to premiere on Wednesday, November 14th – will be available that day starting at 11 AM EST....

After years of rumors, WB Montreal has finally revealed what fans have been waiting for - a brand new Batman game, Gotham Knights. The company has been teasing a new Batman game for roughly a year, starting with a symbol shared last September. Speculation for what the new title would entail has run rampant for years now, and fans finally have their answer. The game was officially unveiled during DC FanDome, which brought a slate of new information for DC properties....

There has been high demand from DC fans for another Batman game since Arkham Knight in 2015. While fans recently found out that Rocksteady, the developer of the Batman: Arkham trilogy, has moved on from Batman to make a Suicide Squad game, it seems there will also be another Batman game in the near future. In 2013, WB Montreal released Arkham Origins, a spin-off of the Batman: Arkham trilogy from Rocksteady....

Gamers looking for a good deal might be interested in listening to Sony’s latest idea. Starting October 4th, through the month of October, Sony will release new exclusive titles for download on the PlayStation Network, as part of a new program, aptly called “Only On PlayStation Network.” PlayStation Plus subscribers will be happy to know that each title released as part of this program with have a 20% discount for them, for a little extra incentive....

Level 5 and Studio Ghibli’s JRPG is getting a sequel, and fans got a new look at Ni No Kuni 2: Revenant Kingdom during the PlayStation Experience 2016 kickoff. The success of Ni No Kuni’s first title, Wrath of the White Witch, is something that was a little unexpected in the west. While a JRPG made by Level 5 with Studio Ghibli designs sounds like an instant recipe for success in Japan, there were a number of doubters when it came to whether or not Ni No Kuni would be able to make a splash in tougher markets....

Roughly one month after reopening its doors to the public, Nintendo NYC will now no longer require reservations for patrons to enter. Per New York City health guidelines in August, the official Nintendo Store was permitted to open for business, but had to limit its in-store capacity. To do this, the company set up a website where patrons would reserve a spot in various 30-minute intervals. While the store will still be following limited capacity guidelines, you’ll no longer need to plan a trip in advance....
