Override 2: Super Mech League will be throttling its way to PS5, Xbox Series S|X, PS4, Xbox One, Switch, and PC on December 22, 2020, just in time for Christmas. This mech-based brawler with local and online multiplayer will be dropping down very soon, and it will be featuring the iconic Ultraman and three other characters from the Netflix show…but that’s only if you get the season pass. When it releases, there will be a standard edition for $29....

For all you D.Va fans out there, Overwatch introduces D.Va’s Nano Cola Challenge, which tasks players with completing certain goals in order to earn a variety of cosmetic goodies for everybody’s favorite MEKA pilot. The challenge is live now, and running until Sept. 10. In that time, Overwatch players can earn limited-time sprays, a new player icon, and the grand prize, a Nano Cola D.Va skin themed after the soft drink seen in the game’s newest cinematic short, “Shooting Star....

There is no doubt that Overwatch is a very popular game, with it now having more than 40 million players since its launch in 2016. Part of the reason for its popularity is the game’s frequent events that it has multiple times a year, one of which begins today. The new event starting today, May 22nd, is the Overwatch Anniversary event. It is a celebration, of course, for the anniversary of the game’s release....

Popular MOBA, Heroes of the Storm, gets the time jumping adventurer Tracer later this month and players can unlock her through a variety of ways including pre-ordering Overwatch. After officially launching last year, Heroes of the Storm has done a great job catering to fans of the three main Blizzard IPs of Diablo, StarCraft, and WarCraft. The MOBA has quickly gained a massive following along with recognition in the eSports community through events like Heroes of the Dorm....

The main gameplay in Monster Hunter Rise is broken down between two mission styles: Village Quests and Hub Quests. Village Quests are basically Monster Hunter Rise’s single player mode, teaching newcomers how to hunt properly before setting them on their own. Hub Quests are Monster Hunter Rise’s online mode, pitting players to work together on an assortment of hunts. Hub Quests have a much higher difficulty curve than Village Quests and generally make up the hardest challenges in Monster Hunter Rise outside of Rampages....

Players that have been looking forward to Monster Hunter World might be familiar with the USJ Azure Star long sword and Palico gear. These players are probably also aware of the fact that these items are only available in Japan. However, there is a way to get them, even if players don’t live there. Capcom has added these items to Monster Hunter World exclusively for players who visit Universal Studios Japan....

Players will likely never be bored when playing Monster Hunter World, as the expansive game always has something new for the player to achieve. In addition to a lengthy story campaign, players can also take part in investigations, farm crafting materials, complete bounties, help a fellow player by answering SOS Flares, or go up against enemies in the arena. The game also features a number of hidden items that players will need to unlock including items known as Mantles....

Warner Bros. has attempted to get a Mortal Kombat movie reboot off the ground for years, with little to no luck. However, a few months ago, screenwriter Greg Russo confirmed that the Mortal Kombat movie had a script, location, director, and cast list, but was still waiting on the official go-ahead from Warner Bros. Now it appears Warner Bros. has given the green light for the Mortal Kombat movie reboot, with James Wan serving as producer....

After a long four-year wait, God of War: Ragnarok is finally upon us. Its predecessor, Santa Monica Studio’s God of War, is considered one of the greatest games of its generation, reimagining the original God of War formula and taking the series’ cinematics and storytelling to new heights. But the one thing that all GoW games have in common are those visceral, often vomit-inducing kills and ass-whoopings Kratos dishes out throughout the series....

Video game publishers finally seem to be realizing that anime games don’t need to be fighting games. Well, for the most part. Jump Force is still a thing, but the novelty of it being a crossover buoys its so-so arena fighter gameplay. Individual franchises, however, have begun branching out into other genres. One Piece is on its fourth Dynasty Warriors-style installment. The One Punch Man game got a single-player hub city and allowed players to create their own bizarre heroes....

Bandai Namco has officially released a new patch for My Hero One’s Justice 2 which features a number of exciting updates, including an English dub featuring all the official voice actors from the My Hero Academia anime. The new free update dropped over the weekend and gives players the chance to experience My Hero One’s Justice 2 in English or Japanese. For fans of the English dub, they’ll easily recognize Justin Briner’s Midoriya, Clifford Chapin’s Bakugo, Christopher Sabat’s All Might, and many more....

Gamers will feel more resistance from the DualSense’s triggers as players become more fatigued in NBA 2K21 on the PS5. Ever since the launch of the PS2, PlayStation has gone head-to-head with Xbox in the eternal console war. On the surface, both consoles will look almost identical. Not in terms of design, of course, but when it comes to graphics and gameplay. Its creators need to come up with innovative ways to set its offering apart from its rival, and PlayStation might have done that in this upcoming generation via its DualSense controllers....

While we have already detailed most of the key components of Destiny’s The Dark Below DLC expansion, there are some elements that are still in need of further clarification. Unfortunately, without Bungie’s guidance it’s hard to make assumptions about what specific elements’ true intentions or natures are. For example, gamers have already begun spotting Blade of Crota enemies on both Earth and the Moon, but it’s unclear why they have appeared....

About a month ago, the Finnish PR company known as 3H Distribution Oy projected a potential July launch date for Bandai Namco Entertainment’s forthcoming action role-playing game, Code Vein, but it appears as if the aforementioned time frame was off by a large margin. As it so happens, Bandai Namco has now confirmed the exact release date by way of a new story trailer, with the title set to become available on September 28, 2018....

The next Destiny 2 game update (1.1.4) has been officially nicknamed the “Go Fast” update by developer Bungie because it promises to speed up players’ movement, Super recharge rates, and more. But within this “Go Fast” update, there is also a new system that will punish habitual quitters in the game’s Competitive PvP playlist. Quitters have been especially prevalent in Destiny 2’s Competitive playlist since launch. Players, or even entire teams, will drop out of a match if they start losing by a large margin, and the problems are often compounded because additional players are not matchmade into the middle of a game....

Apple has finally unveiled the new iPad – just iPad, not iPad 3 or iPad HD – at a press event this morning. To make a long story short, the rumors were largely true: the new iPad sports Apple’s Retina display, features a quad-core graphics processor (on the A5X chip), and supports 4G LTE networks. Pre-orders for the new iPad are already available, and the device will be released March 16, 2012....

NFL Street returns in Madden 21. Well, kinda. It’s not quite the same, but you get the same feel for it. Gamers from a certain era might remember NBA Street, a game that sort of tried to capture the same casual feel as NBA Jam did way back in the SNES and Sega Genesis era. That arcade-style of gameplay was soon extended to football in NFL Street, where arcade-style power meters and stat-boosting equipment made football appealing to non-football fans....

This Nine Perfect Strangers review contains no spoilers. Nine Perfect Strangers is truly a story about how, if you look like Nicole Kidman, you can get people to do anything you want them to do. In the upcoming Hulu series, Kidman is Masha, an enigmatic, ethereal woman who runs Tranquillum, a super secretive wellness retreat set in a swoon-worthy mansion made of glass and earth elements. As the guests arrive and settle in, they realize that they’re in for more than they’d bargained for....

Standing toe to toe with the likes of Fortnite, Warzone, and Apex Legends, Valorant has quickly shot up to become one of the most frequently streamed games currently available despite currently only being in closed beta. Many have claimed that the game has a lot of potential in the long-run, despite streamers such as Shroud admitting that they thought Valorant’s official release early next month might be somewhat premature. It seems the game has also generated a fair amount of competition between players online, with many commenting on each others’ in-game rankings....

From April 2 to April 15, Nintendo is offering Bethesda games up to 50%-off as part of a Spring Sale. This is also the first time that Doom Eternal has gone on a sale, so don’t miss out on the opportunity to get the game for just $29.99. Nintendo is no stranger to sales, but games that are priced at $59.99 don’t often go for 50% off, especially if they came out a few months ago....
