WARNING: Contains spoilers for Our Flag Means Death Season 1 (and potentially Season 2) It had everything: swashbuckling sword fights, a lovably silly – not to mention diverse and inclusive – crew of shipmates, and the most unexpectedly (pirate)shippable romance of the year. If the first season of Our Flag Means Death left you hungry for more, we’ve got some good news for you: Series 2 is on the way in 2023....
Developer ClaudiaTheDev came up with new milestones on Kickstarter for her upcoming game Ova Magica, but popularity for the farming simulator continues to exceed her expectations. Ova Magica is meeting new stretch goals by the day. Only 5 days ago, the project launched on Kickstarter with an original funding goal of 20,000 euros but has since risen to over 100,000 euros, quickly meeting each new limit ClaudiaTheDev puts in place. In a matter of days, Ova Magica’s Kickstarter has doubled, originally adding new concepts like marriage and playing with Blobs as goals to work towards, but fans are exceeding ClaudiaTheDev’s new milestones just hours after she posts them....
The last few weeks have seen gamers suggesting that the Summer Games event will be returning to Overwatch in the not too distant future. Now, a new hint in the form of two freshly-discovered sprays has added further fuel to the fire. Dataminers have combed through the latest PTR build of Overwatch and managed to find two new sprays, the most notable of which is a Summer Games 2017 logo. Fans expecting a big cosmetic overhaul will be slightly disappointed as the datamined Summer Games logo is largely similar to last year’s one, with only a few minor differences separating the two....
Capcom TGS Live 2020 has revealed a slew of new information about the newest entry into the Monster Hunter series, Monster Hunter Stories 2: Wings Of Ruin. Beyond elaborating on what players can expect to see from the game’s story, Capcom also teased a non-rider version of the Kinship Stone, wielded by none other than Ena, the mysterious Wyverian who kicks off the protagonist’s adventure. Kinship Stones are devices used by Riders to deepen their bonds with the creatures they partner with....
Food is a major part of Monster Hunter World gameplay. As a consumable item, players have figured out the best foods to eat before a hunt, choosing the right meals to improve certain stats before a big battle. Food is so important to Monster Hunter World players, in fact, that one fan has even gone as far as to recreate it in real life. On Twitter, a user named ki-ki posted a delicious Monster Hunter World feast that had been recreated by their significant other....
Today, during Square Enix’s E3 press conference, it was revealed that there would be a Monster Hunter World x Final Fantasy 14 crossover, with Rathalos playing a prominent role in the reveal trailer. However, the exact details of the MHW content appearing in Final Fantasy 14 are unknown, though a new emote was shown, and the lack of any crossover armor would be a huge missed opportunity. The event is scheduled to take place in Summer 2018, so fans don’t have to wait long....
Despite its recent release, Gearbox Software’s Battleborn is performing poorly among PC players using Steam, and is being outperformed by Borderlands 2. Battleborn, Gearbox’s first attempt at targeting the massive multiplayer online battle arena game audience isn’t performing as well as they may have hoped, at least with PC players. According to new data, Battleborn is struggling to compete with another Gearbox game: Borderlands 2. Steam DB, a website that actively tracks what Steam users are doing during any given time period, has revealed that twice the number of PC gamers are playing Gearbox’s Borderlands 2 in comparison to Battleborn....
Presenting, the definitive ranking of Mortal Kombat characters! I’m counting everyone, with only a few exceptions. Here are the criteria… – It has to be an actual Mortal Kombat character and not a guest fighter. That means no Freddy Krueger, Kratos, Jason, Predator, or anyone from the DC Universe. – Dark Kahn doesn’t count for the same reason. – It has to be someone who was playable in the one-on-one games....
We’re coming up to a third of the way through 2021, and that has me thinking about my game of the year candidates. Right now, it’s slim pickings. I know that January-April is usually the most barren third of the year, and after a year of the pandemic, we should be celebrating game delays that prioritise worker health, but still - I’m expecting my list from last year to be a lot stronger....
There is an old saying that a hero is only as good as his villains. Throughout Naruto’s entire journey, he was faced with a myriad of interesting, dynamic, and sometimes downright terrifying, villains. However, none of them set the tone quite like Orochimaru. He was nasty, powerful, and above all, spooky. The master of the slippery-snake-no-Jutsu, Orochimaru set into motion the events that would rock the ninja world time and time again....
Hades has won a slew of awards from the 2021 BAFTA’s Best Game to The Game Awards’ Best Independent Game. Even now, it’s nabbing those trophies, with a new Nebula one for Game Writing. The Nebula Awards is an annual event that celebrates science fiction and fantasy. It’s presided over by writers of that field. Only recently, in 2018, did it start to include video games. The prior years have seen The Outer Worlds and Black Mirror: Bandersnatch winning, so Hades has joined an all-star line-up....
Most recently, in 2018, Criterion Software released Burnout Paradise Remastered. This was, again, the 10th anniversary of one of its most positively-received titles, so to see the developers proving the same treatment for Need for Speed should come as no surprise. With the series’ last two titles failing to live up to the older ones, now is the perfect time to provide a remaster to get disappointed players back on the bandwagon....
The latest season of the Pokemon anime, dubbed Pokemon Journeys, will be available to stream in English exclusively through Netflix starting on June 12, 2020. However, with the streaming service known for putting out exclusive content entire seasons at a time and pioneering the “binge watching” culture, some may be curious whether a traditionally weekly show like Pokemon would adhere to this model. When Netflix announced its exclusivity agreement with The Pokemon Company International on April 23, it also confirmed that Pokemon Journeys will not be released in one go — which makes sense given how long each season lasts....
Surprise! There might be some new Borderlands 2 DLC coming in the lead-up to Borderlands 3. It’s been 5 years since the last DLC pack dropped for Borderlands 2. Normally, we’d say it’s pretty safe to assume that Gearbox is done with Borderlands 2, especially with Borderlands 3 not even 5 months away. But Gearbox seems to have a special relationship with the Borderlands franchise. First, they released a remastered version of the original Borderlands....
Four weeks from now, the Star Wars Battlefront 2 beta will get underway, giving jedi and sith alike the chance to get a preview of one of the year’s most hotly anticipated sequels. Now, a trusted leaker has offered up some insight into what we sort of content we can expect to try out. Reddit user Some_Info has a good reputation when it comes to Star Wars Battlefront 2, having been responsible for the information that leaked ahead of E3 2017....
Previously only available in Japan, KonoSuba: Fantastic Days will be heading to iOS and Android devices worldwide in 2021. The title will be published by Nexon, developed by Sumzap, and crafted in partnership with KonoSuba’s anime publisher, Kadokawa. The full title of the game is a bit ridiculous – KonoSuba: God’s Blessing On This Wonder World! Fantastic Days – but fans of the series will be glad to know it’s finally heading west....
Several rumors surrounding the future of Konami’s Silent Hill have been circulating. While previous speculation stated that developers like Sony would scoop up the series to develop new games for the PlayStation 5, a recent report from TechPlusGame claims that Microsoft was in the process of purchasing both Silent Hill and other valuable Konami properties. Previously, rumors told of a bidding war for the rights to Konami’s classic horror franchise. While most speculation agreed that Sony won this battle, multiple reports also named ex-Silent Hills developer Kojima Productions as a potential contender to develop the series’ next game....
In Call of Duty: Warzone, there are operators that come from a ton of different backgrounds. After Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War merged into Call of Duty: Warzone, the number of operators increased, and the cultural blend continued to be present. One recent Call of Duty: Warzone operator has been well received by fans, but one player noticed an inaccuracy in their outfit. Language is a complicated thing, and in Asian cultures, it can become hard for non-natives to navigate the differences in text and speech....
New details have surfaced following the Microsoft E3 2016 presentation about the new Xbox One wireless controller, one of which includes a nice upgrade for PC users. Going into E3 2016, it was impossible to predict exactly what technology each company would bring to the table. As the dust around the early days of the biggest week in gaming settles, it’s clear that Sony believes the PS4 is strong enough on its own to warrant little in the way of tech upgrades, while Microsoft has decided to make huge changes to their hardware, going so far as to confirm that Project Scorpio, their next big console, is already on the way and targeting next year for release....
