After a sluggish start, Rainbow Six Siege has become a smash hit for Ubisoft, pulling in a large fanbase thanks in large part to the development team’s consistent updates and the release of new content each year. With the year 4 pass being officially revealed last month, the game is quickly heading towards its goal of having anywhere from 50-100 unique operators on the roster for players to pick from. Even though Ubisoft has yet to officially detail the first expansion of this new year, it seems the first wave of operators may have accidentally leaked early....

Nier Replicant is a game that carries with it all those things that Yoko Taro games are remembered for. As with other games made by him, Nier Replicant ver. 1.224744139 will inspire introspective behavior in many of the dedicated fanbase. His new character addition to Nier is one of those things that might help with that. Louise is a new character that was added to the Nier series in Nier Replicant ver....

Continue With Caution: Spoilers for The Atlas End Game No Man’s Sky is a vast game that allows players to explore an unlimited amount of planets. While the game does primarily focus on freedom, there are a few story paths that the player can follow. The Atlas is the most obvious and will be introduced after the player completes the tutorial of fixing their ship. With all the updates and changes to the game, though, even veteran players may be a bit confused when trying to completely start the game over and follow the Atlas Path....

Although Hello Games’ No Man’s Sky hasn’t officially released yet, the leak earlier this week has resulted in someone already finding the center of the game’s first galaxy. Few games have captured the imagination of video game players around the globe like No Man’s Sky has this year. Hello Games’ first AAA release is apparently just the right blend of science-fiction, exploration, and mysteriousness, because anticipation for No Man’s Sky has reached a fever pitch now that the title is only weeks away from hitting online stores and physical shelves alike....

They don’t make ‘em like that anymore. Often this axiom is used to apply rose tinted glasses over the past—a chance to get nostalgic about the “good ol’ days.” But sometimes when you take a critical look at the old days, they’re not always better. Which would be putting it mildly when acknowledging the gender politics of otherwise beloved early James Bond 007 movies. No Time to Die director Cary Joji Fukunaga would seem to think so....

Computer hardware manufacturer NZXT has just announced a limited edition line of Rainbow Six Siege PC cases.

After an outpouring of negative feedback, Jagex has postponed Old School RuneScape’s equipment rebalance. The team still plans to move forward with unpolled changes in the future, and will use the extra time to gather more data to support their case. Old School RuneScape has been on the market for about eight years. In that time, the game is yet to see a massive rework of weapons, stats, and skills. New gear has been added on a regular basis, but existing weapons remain largely untouched....

The previous One Piece game, One Piece World Seeker, is an ok open-world game that was surprisingly short for its genre. The latest video game offering the franchise, One Piece Odyssey, is likewise short for its genre, but at least it has comparatively more meat on its bones than World Seeker. Granted, those estimates are based almost exclusively on the main story campaign. One Piece Odyssey offers plenty of side content to keep players busy and pad out its length, including treasure hunts and bounty missions....

After Outriders’ troubled launch, People Can Fly has emphasised in a statement that they are aware and sorry for the game’s server issues. Outriders has had a successful launch in terms of popularity, but undoubtedly a bumpy one from a technical viewpoint.

But it turns out that D.Va’s popularity is more than just the fact she’s a teenage professional gamer with a fictional YouTube following to rival the Kardashians....

One of the advertised features of the title was the ability to transfer saves from the PC version of the game to the Switch, but this sadly will not be available at launch....

Monster Hunter Stories 2: Wings of Ruin feels like a classic JRPG, and I mean this with all of the lofty praise and unfortunate criticisms that come with that genre. The battle system offers familiar turn-based mechanics and creature taming that are easy to learn yet hard to master, while exploring the open world bears all the signatures of genre classics as you embark on a grand adventure that initially feels a bit incomprehensible....

Earlier this week, Monster Hunter World players got a peak behind the curtain to see just how rare drop rates are for certain items in the game. At the time the focus was on gems and other rare monster drops, but there was also an interesting detail about decorations that many may not have picked up on.
