The Overwatch community has a reputation for creating excellent skin concepts, and one artist has turned their attention to the tank hero Roadhog. While one may not expect to see the dangerous Australian in a suit, it is hard to argue against how well the Overwatch character pulls off the look. Coming completely out of left field, Redditor gr0verd0g’s Roadhog design imagines the tank as an influential member of Wall Street....

Monster Hunter Rise is set to release in just a few months, but there is still a lot about the exciting Nintendo Switch exclusive that is not yet known. Some info about Monster Hunter Rise may have been leaked, however, and this important bit has to do with the monsters of the game. Earlier this month there was a massive Capcom leak that seems to have shown what the developer/publisher’s short and long-term plans are over....
Even an amazing game like Monster Hunter World can only stay exciting for so long, even with official DLC being released. If you want to spice up your monster hunting experience, there’s no better way than learning how to install the best mods, but don’t worry if that sounds intimidating because we’ll make it as easy as hunting a Great Jagras. Mods may not always be welcome in the eyes of a game’s developer, but dedicated modders have taken broken games and made them playable, and great games and made them even greater....
The main goal in Monster Hunter World is as its name implies: to hunt monsters. Over the course of the game, players will be tasked with slaying a variety of massive beasts, all with their own unique attacks and abilities. While hunting down and killing monsters is certainly the main goal in Monster Hunter World, it’s also possible for players to capture monsters alive, though it’s a bit trickier than you may expect....
There are a lot of Steam users that game on a controller. According to Valve’s latest figures, 48 million people have used a controller to play a game on Steam, and roughly 10% of all daily game sessions are done on a controller. That’s more controllers being used to game on Steam than ever before. And Valve wants its developers to know exactly how many people are using controllers to play their games....
One of the first things that got fans talking the moment they got their first look at the new Mortal Kombat film was how video game accurate some of the costumes were. And while accurate costumes do not always translate into an enjoyable movie (case in point, Mortal Kombat: Annihilation), it does at least give fans something to look at. The issue with accurate costumes though is that they might not always be practical in a live-action setting....
Whether you’re a longtime Mortal Kombat fan or someone who is mostly just interested in the upcoming film, one of the first proper blockbusters of 2021, you’re probably at least aware of the feud between the series’ resident ninjas: Sub-Zero and Scorpion. It’s a battle that almost transcends the already legendary franchise and has entered the public pop-culture consciousness in a way that makes many almost subconsciously think “rivals” whenever they see the two characters....
Mortal Kombat Legends: Scorpion’s Revenge is the newest Mortal Kombat movie, releasing digitally on April 14th and Blu-Ray on April 28th. A clip released by Warner Bros. Entertainment shows off Johnny Cage, Sonya Blade, Lui Kang, and Raiden. In the scene, Johnny Cage is meeting the warriors entering the tournament and introduces himself with a condescending tone and an inflated ego. Johnny Cage is voiced by Joel McHale, who is known for his snarky hosting of The Soup, and plays Jeff Winger in the popular sitcom Community....
Between 2002 and 2013, EA released a Need for Speed game every single year. As a result, racing game fans were massively disappointed when Electronic Arts revealed that they wouldn’t be releasing a new Need for Speed game for 2014, in order to ensure that they delivered a “high quality experience” for fans of the long-running series. Despite that slight disappointment, EA released a trailer for a “full reboot” of the Need for Speed series that would hopefully make that two year wait worth it....
It has been known for quite some time that BioWare has been working on more games for the Dragon Age franchise, and fans have been waiting with bated breath for an official unveiling of the next entry in the renowned fantasy-RPG series. Now, it looks as if the wait for an announcement regarding another installment may not be too much longer, as BioWare General Manager Casey Hudson has teased that a reveal could come sooner than one might think....
Video game-related merchandise has expanded in recent years going beyond trinkets, figures, and keychains, and into the world of fashion. A fan wearing an item based on their favorite series is another way to express their love for a franchise. Final Fantasy certainly has a large, and passionate fanbase, so news that a Final Fantasy 7: Advent Children watch is up for pre-order should pique the interest of fans looking for a way to accessorize their wrists....
After years away from the Ninja Gaiden franchise, it looks like Team Ninja may be ready to return to Ryu Hayabusa’s adventures if our recent interview with Nioh franchise director Fumihiko Yasuda is anything to go by. While talking with Yasuda-san about the upcoming PC release of Nioh 2 and the Nioh Collection, we couldn’t help but ask Yasuda-san for more information on Ninja Gaiden, and when we might finally see Ryu Hayabusa on screen again, and Yasuda-san certainly didn’t want to disappoint anyone....
Bloober Team, the developer behind The Medium, revealed that it is working on an existing horror IP from a “very famous gaming publisher.” There are a few franchises that this could be, but everyone right now is thinking Silent Hill. One of the reasons for this is that Bloober Team CEO Piotr Babieno stated that the game would cause a stir once revealed, and with rumors galore and supposed leaks regularly wiggling their way into the horror discourse, Silent Hill would fit the bill, and a reveal is supposedly coming this Summer....
Niantic has had to issue an apology to Pokemon Go players after it unintentionally made Shiny Pokemon unavailable for a certain amount of time. The company proceeded to offer trainers an apology package the following day for any inconvenience caused. Catching Shiny Pokemon in the augmented reality mobile game has a low encounter rate to begin with so it’s understandable that this issue didn’t get flagged sooner. It could take a player hours - as well as cost them real-world money - to obtain a Shiny Pokemon, which is never guaranteed....
In collaboration with Ubisoft and the global venture fund, Hashed, Planetarium has just announced the final presale for their new MMORPG, Nine Chronicles. What makes Nine Chronicles unique is that it will be powered by its players using blockchain technology and an elaborate in-game economy. Nine Chronicles had previously done a presale that sold out in 18 hours, which means players are sure to be excited about this final presale, especially considering early backers who partake in the sale will get a 5% bonus to Gold and other in-game benefits....

The limited-edition sneakers feature black uppers in an abstract, tonal camo print, triangular graphics on the quarter, and neon purple accents near the forefoot, heel counter, and the outsole....
It may seem like a lifetime ago with the way 2020 is going, but back in January, disturbances felt in the Force regarding the Disney+ Star Wars Obi-Wan Kenobi spinoff series proved accurate after it was temporarily shelved as a search for new scripts commenced. However, it now appears that—in this unlikeliest of times to get good news—the wheels appear to be moving once again, with Disney having found a new visionary scribe for the small screen effort....
Details about the Oculus Quest 2 recently leaked online, just two days ahead of this week’s Facebook Connect showcase, which is due to unveil what the company has in store for its virtual reality department. The Facebook Connect livestream is due to air this Wednesday, September 16. While we already had reason to believe that the Oculus Quest 2 would make an appearance after the original Quest and Rift were seemingly pulled from sale, we now have official confirmation that the Oculus Quest 2 reveal is only a couple of days away....
