Today, the Bungie Community Manager known as “Cozmo23” officially revealed that Crimson Days will return in the video game developer’s second entry of its science fiction shooter series, Destiny 2. Prior to this announcement, a fresh datamine of the title’s PC version discovered new details in relation to the forthcoming holiday-themed event that seem to confirm it will focus primarily on cosmetic rewards and will mostly be connected to the Eververse Trading Company....

It has been ten days since Destiny’s major expansion, The Taken King, was released, launching players into Year Two of Bungie’s loot-driven first person shooter. Players have been grinding for dozens of hours since launch, becoming well acquainted with the improved loot system to collect the gear to help boost their stats to the maximum. So, when something goes awry with the loot system, players notice. And unfortunately, a new hot fix that came to Destiny yesterday accidentally added a bug that removed the loot drop from one of most “bullet-spongey” bosses in the game....

Escape From Tarkov has received a new update today, although this one is somewhat minor compared to others. The update mainly consists of bug fixes and a couple optimization changes for increased performance, but doesn’t bring any new major or minor features to the table this time around. Optimization changes were made to Escape From Tarkov in an attempt to counter the occasional light freezing and stuttering that players had been encountering recently, and it seems that those problems have been addressed....

Capcom has released over seven minutes of Monster Hunter Rise footage, showing off the deadly Great Sword in action. In the clip, you’ll witness the beginning of a typical Monster Hunter mission, showing off map traversal, resource collecting, and a bit of heavy-hitting combat once the target is finally tracked down. The footage starts out slow, showing off mechanics we’ve already seen – such as the Wirebug, a cool new grappling hook that helps with the map’s added verticality....

Capcom has filed trademarks for Onimusha in several regions around the world, prompting speculation and anticipation that the developer might announce a new game in the series. The Onimusha trademark is once again active in countries like Mexico, The Philippines, Canada, and Australia, along with the European Union.

A new Planet of the Apes film is on the way and many have been questioning what exactly the new film is going to be. In a recent interview, director Wes Ball gives provides fans some relief on “when” it takes place. Ball confirmed to Discussing Film that his entry into the hallowed science-fiction franchise will be within the continuity of the most recent trilogy of films. This means that the new film will not be a reboot but continue the timeline of Rupert Wyatt and Matt Reeves’ highly regarded films....

It’s non-stop over at Games Workshop with the announcement of new releases for Warhammer 40,000, with new Codex Supplements, accessories, and units for Deathwatch and Space Wolves. When tabletop war game Warhammer 40,000 9th Edition released earlier this year, GW announced the end of Space Marine Chapter specific Codexes, stating that the popular Chapters would instead receive codex supplements. The difference is subtle and while it may feel like nothing more than a marketing gimmick, at its heart is an attempt to unify and streamline the fielding of different Space Marine Chapters....

Another Call of Duty: Warzone weapon is making headlines after streamer NICKMERCS introduced a new build into the mix. While Call of Duty: Warzone’s meta has been in flux since the last wave of nerfs, the community has been searching for replacement weapons. This has opened up the door for plenty of alternate builds and loadouts. The focus of NICKMERCS this time is the underrated Assault Rifle AS VAL. This weapon has mixed receptions in the Call of Duty: Warzone community, but it is widely known to be the fastest killing weapon in Warzone....

Though the Nintendo DSi is nearly 13 years old now, some of the hardware’s downloadable content in the form of DSiWare has been available for many years on the Nintendo 3DS eShop, which is now nearly 10 years old. Originally available on the DSi Shop, DSiWare was the name given to a variety of games and applications available for download on the DSi, marking Nintendo’s second big venture into digital games after the Wii....

Nioh 2 was quietly released in March with a story that acts as both a prequel and sequel to its previous entry. It’s a part of a ranking of Japanese action RPG games with high difficulty like Sekiro and Dark Souls, but it is the least-known series of the bunch. Like its contemporaries, Nioh also takes a dark look at fantasy, specifically ancient Japan and its classic folklore around Yokai. However, its story and voice acting are sporadic and messy, with many points missing out on necessary logic for it to flow correctly....

The ambitious No Man’s Sky is now less than a week away from release and the game continues to exude an air of mystery as many continue to figure out how it will ultimately play.

The game stars a cleric named Ophelia, who is going on a holy pilgrimage; a scholar named Cyrus, who is searching for a stolen book; a merchant named Tressa, who wants to prove that she has what it takes to make a lot of gold through adventures; a disgraced knight named Oberic, who is seeking revenge against the man who killed his king; a dancer named Primrose, who is hunting the three assassins who murdered her father; an apothecary named Alfyn, who is traveling the world in search of a cure for a disease; a thief named Therion, who is blackmailed into searching for rare jewels; and a hunter named H’aanit, who is on the trail of a monster named Redeye....

The COVID-19 pandemic hit the anime industry as hard as anybody else, pushing back an entire slate of shows leaving spring and summer a little fallow. If there was ever a sliver of good to come out of all of that its a list of returning shows released by Crunchyroll that shows many old favorites returning to the air. Among the list are two popular shows pushed back due to COVID-19: the phrenetic volleyball anime Haikyu!...

With Overwatch’s ranked mode just around the corner, one author takes a look at what makes the game stand out from many of the other shooters on the market. Blizzard’s new first-person shooter Overwatch has been out for a little over two weeks and it is already topping my list for 2016’s Game of the Year. While other shooters haven’t been able to hold my attention for a good 3 or 4 years at this point, there’s something about it that sets it apart from other titles – and that’s the teamwork....

Seth is one of the Altered you can encounter in Outriders. The earliest one you will meet, in fact. Seth’s whole story as a character in the game is riddled with mystery. Not much is known about the character and that only adds to the level of intrigue surrounding his background and story. The world of Outriders is fantastical and incredible. 99% of those who get hit by the Anomaly’s storm energy, instead of dying, gain extraordinary abilities instead....

Ahead of its release in April, Outriders will be giving players the chance to dive into the game with its forthcoming demo. One of the best parts is how this demo will support cross-play across practically all platforms, including PS5 and Xbox Series X. However, this demo and all of its features aren’t the only reasons Xbox Series X players have to be excited. During the fifth Outriders Broadcast, People Can Fly unveiled its collaboration with Pope Art to release six custom controllers related to the game....

Every week, Overwatch’s Hero Pool system bans the four most played characters of the week prior. The purpose of the system is to keep the game’s competitive meta from getting stale. But it seems the Overwatch Team didn’t quite take into account new character releases when designing the Hero Pool algorithm, as the latest pool just banned Echo, a character that at the time hadn’t even been out for a full week....
