The all-digital event gave millions of players around the world a look at what’s coming to the looter shooter later this year and beyond, including the all-new story-driven expansionThe New Wor. Not only were players given a glimpse at the new content in the above trailer, but Digital Extremes brought a 30-minute gameplay demo ofThe New Warto the show....

We should really be better at this stuff The demo forInjustice: Gods Among Ushas released this week to Xbox Live Marketplace and PlayStation Network, so Jordan Devore and I decided we would give it a little look-see. What we found is that we’re not very good at playing it, which might amuse some of you out there. It feels like a heavier, slower game than evenMortal Kombatwas, which isn’t necessarily a criticism....

Early inStarfieldyou will get your own ship and start exploring the field of stars. Upon landing on a celestial body, you will see you have the ability to start building your own outpost. Of course, you need resources to do so which you probably won’t have right off the start. Outposts can be however small or large you want them to be. Also, you’re able to use them to gather resources and even manufacture other goods....

Go get your easy rewards World of Warcraft: Shadowlandsjust got ahugeshot in the arm yesterday evening, as the first major patch arrived. Alongside of the first raid, it also brought along some new weekly activities, like the Great Vault (a side menu you can earn rewards from through high-level play), arena quests (the first season just kicked off), and world bosses. The latter bit is probably what most of the playerbase is going to be interested in, asShadowlandscontinues the trend of the last few expansions of cycling in new world quest-related bosses each week for easy rewards....

PlayingMuramasa: The Demon Bladerecently, I’ve noticed that the lack of English voiceover actually seems to add to the game rather than subtract from it — the spoken Japanese actually goes well with the atmosphere. Naturally, its less work for a studio, but if it works out well, more power to them. In a recent chat with XSEED,Siliconerafound out that much anticipatedFragile: Farewell Ruins of the Moonwill likely keep its Japanese voice track as well....

Hopefully Western launch won’t be far behind [Update: V-Jump page scan released, added below.] The latest issue of Japanese publicationV-Jumpfeatures the street date for the Japanese release of ArcSys’ highly-anticipated punch-upDragon Ball FighterZ. The magazine states that the kinetic anime fighter will launch in Japan on June 26, 2025 at a cost of ¥7,800. The issue also goes on to detail a little of the game’s Story Mode, which will see the player’s “spirit” link with multiple characters across the campaign, allowing the player to inhabit the roles of Goku and co....

More Switch units on shelves? [Update:It seems as if the bundleis Russia-only.] In case you haven’t picked up a Switch yet, Nintendo might be helping the stock situation with its first major bundle. It’s for none other thanMario Kart 8 Deluxe, an enhanced port that’s coming later this month on Nintendo’s new system. That’s according to Nintendo’s own official Russian storefront, which seemingly dropped the news a little early, as the listing has been removed....

You only have to take one look at places like the official Lodestone or fan-runFFXIVCollectto know that there are a staggering number ofMinionsavailable inFinal Fantasy XIV. Most of them share the same basic actions, however some of them have some fun little shared animations to find. Out of the hundreds of Minions inFinal Fantasy XIV, I’ve done some experimenting and found some of the coolest, or most unique, interactions. These can be between two Minions or between the player and their selected Minion....

Nicolas Games, developer and publisher of the upcoming post apocalyptic romp,Afterfall: InSanity,are taking an interesting route with their games marketing. They are offering preorders for a measly dollar on theirwebsite. Then, once their target goal (10 million copies) is reached, they will be putting the game on peer-to-peer networks and 10 per cent of their revenue will be donated to a charity. If the target isn’t reached then all of the revenue will end up going to the charity but customers will have to pay the rest of the $33....

Businesses and Hobbiesis the latest expansion forThe Sims 4, bringing a whole new style of gameplay for those who want to earn Simoleons doing something they love with their very own small business. As in real life, you can’t create a small business inBusinesses and Hobbiesbefore you figure out what you want the business to do or offer. Do you want to open up a tattoo studio, or perhaps sell pottery, two of the new features of the latest expansion?...

There’s nothing quite like a sale to get you buying things you don’t really need, and spending money you don’t really have. But that’s the situation I find myself in practically every week when Steam does its brilliantmarketing ploysales. From now until Monday, April 13, any and all games from Strategy First are 50% off, or you may alternatively purchase the company’s entire catalog of 30 games for $74.99. Apparently, that’s over $275 in savings....

But Blizzard Entertainment has issued a statement saying the survey is “not indicative” of the final product. TheOverwatch 2survey, as shared on social media byTwitter user Portergauge, asks some questions about various tiers of skin prices forOverwatch 2. It asks about Legendary skins, priced out at $24....

I’m ducking it this year, lucky NuckleDu This December, the bestStreet Fighter Vscrappers in the world will gather in Anaheim, California for the 2017 Capcom Cup. The pugilists will throw down in the culmination of a year’s worth of tournament-battling and CPT point gathering.
