Despite the major backlash Electronic Arts received with the inclusion of pay-to-win microtransactions in Star Wars: Battlefront 2, recent reports indicate that the publisher has raked in over $1 billion strictly from microtransactions. Although EA has included microtransactions in nearly every game it has recently developed and published, console and PC games have not been included in this total. Analysts report that this astronomical number is entirely due to EA’s free-to-play mobile sports titles....

Playful Studios confirms plans to release New Super Lucky’s Tale on PS4 and Xbox One. New Super Lucky’s Tale is the Nintendo Switch version of Xbox One exclusive Super Lucky’s Tale with several new features. On Twitter, Playful Studios announced that New Super Lucky’s Tale would be “coming soon” to PS4 and Xbox One, but didn’t reveal the release date. One of the biggest questions is how close it is to Super Lucky’s Tale and if it provides much that’s new or different....

A new glitch in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild lets you play in first-person, albeit not brilliantly given that you can’t see your hands, naturally. Found by Twitter user @Axk_000, this is done using the built-in camera for the game. To swap perspectives, open the camera, switch to your inventory, hold some items in your hand, and then back out of the inventory screen to find that, while not in the camera, you’re still strapped to that first-person perspective....

The new multiplayer map is Sanatorium, located in the Ural Plains, which Treyarch described as a “Massive new arena… a low-wooded hills area where your team will unearth the clandestine secrets of Project Golova....

The Assassin’s Creed franchise has been on an interesting journey over the course of the past few years, shifting from a simple stealth-oriented action series into full-fledged RPG’s with dialogue and romance options. Now, a new rumor says that Assassin’s Creed may be returning to Italy, despite some fan theories that the game would be going to Japan. It also appears that many of the new features will be coming along with it....

When the Ninja Gaiden: Master Collection was announced a few months ago, one of the many bullet points that Koei Tecmo emphasized for the re-release was just how many new characters would be playable. Now we get to see all those characters in action thanks to the latest Master Collection character trailer. Starting with Ayane, the deadly butterfly ninja. She first appeared in the Dead or Alive fighting game franchise, but made her way to the Ninja Gaiden series first as an NPC in Ninja Gaiden Sigma and then as a playable character in Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2 and Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor’s Edge....

Nintendo was always going to make a big deal out of Mario’s 35th anniversary, and a lot was expected of the company when it announced a Super Mario Direct exclusively dedicated to the world’s most famous plumber. That Nintendo Direct ended up announcing the highly anticipated Super Mario 3D All-Stars collection, a Super Mario 3D World re-release, and the battle royale-styled Super Mario Bros. 35. It also featured some other Mario related merchandise, like the Mario Kart Live: Home Circuit, a Game & Watch console, LEGO sets, clothing, and even some commemorative pins for early buyers of the Mario 3D collection....

While the focus during the game’s Comic-Con panel was all on the announcement of Talia al Ghul and Solomon Grundy in Batman: Arkham City, one lone question went unanswered: who is doing the voice of The Penguin? It seemed like such a no-brainer, and one that could have easily been answered with the name of some talented, yet unknown, voice actor who can pull off a euro accent. That is, if that voice actor wasn’t one of the most well known voice actor currently working today....

The Lost Woods is a vital part of the Legend of Zelda series, appearing throughout several Zelda games. In Ocarina of Time, The Lost Woods have several secret grottos and mini-games spread around that players may miss. These are beneficial to Link’s progression. There are also shortcuts to other parts of Hyrule as well, which help players travel much quicker. The main reason players enter The Lost Woods is to access the Sacred Forest Meadow, which houses the great Forest Temple....

Something that has been a long time coming to the Overwatch scene is the introduction of Blizzard’s competitive Overwatch League, which would allow teams of players to complete against one another and begin making a name for themselves in the team-based FPS scene. Unfortunately for the developer, the feature’s launch isn’t going so smoothly and there’s a lot of rumors surrounding exactly why - something that Blizzard isn’t too pleased about....

Many of the Mortal Kombat dataminers have been pretty successful in revealing many of the characters before their release. Now, one dataminer has found what appears to be the biggest list of DLC characters since the Mortal Kombat: Aftermath expansion....

Video game movies get a bad rap for the most part but lately, there’s been a handful of outliers that broke the mold. Many were hesitant to buy into the Mortal Kombat hype for that very reason - the unavoidable chance of it being bad - but so far, it’s netted a 62% on Rotten Tomatoes and a 7/10 on IMDb. One reviewer, writing for Sensacine, said, “I enjoyed its fatalities as much as I enjoyed its B-movie charm....

Few video game franchises can boast a mechanic that has become a household name. In the 15 years since the franchise launched, the words ‘Finish Him’ have become iconic in pop culture and the brutal Fatalities that follow the command are now famous (or infamous) in and outside of the video game community. As expected, the latest installment, Mortal Kombat X, has upped the ante on the number and the brutality of the finishing moves....

The newest Need for Speed game looks visually stunning thanks to its extra year of polish, but running those graphics isn’t always the easiest thing to do for most systems. We’ve seen with our own eyes that Need for Speed actually looks like it does in the trailer, which in itself was gorgeous. Whilst the reboot for the franchise looks fantastic, such advances in graphics don’t come without their own drawbacks, and today the developer announced the drawbacks for console gamers....
