Overlord: Fellowship of Evil will launch on Steam on September 29 for £11.99, Codemasters has announced. The Xbox store also lists the game for release on console the same day, so expect it to arrive digitally on both PS4 and Xbox One then, too. Pre-order the game on Steam and you’ll receive 9 free hats for your minions inspired by Team Fortress 2, including ones based on the Heavy, Pyro, Scout and Engineer....
Overwatch has had its own share of unique skins since the preorder days. But the value & rarity of these skins is unknown to the new players who recently just jumped in on the OW2 trend. There are skins that are so rare that accounts or redeem codes with these skins are sold for over $800 on eBay. But all of these changed since Blizzard added phone number authentication to OW2 accounts....
The good news just keep on coming for Microsoft’s little-console-RTS-that-could Halo Wars. In a recent post on the community forums over at HaloWars.com, a moderator broke the news to the game’s fans that only two years after the game was released, the community will have to make the shift over to Halo Waypoint’s message boards, meaning all community content and records will be tossed. While Halo Wars may not be anywhere near as successful or played as other Halo titles, the accomplishments of Ensemble Studios’ RTS can’t be forgotten....
Capcom has declared it’ll showcase more of upcoming Monster Hunter Rise expansion Sunbreak in a Digital Event next week. As per the official Twitter account, the broadcast will take place on Tuesday March 15 at around 2pm UK time. During the broadcast, the studio will showcase around 20 minutes of “exciting reveals” from the upcoming expansion. Though the team are keeping exact details vague, the tweet mentions new monsters, new gameplay and more....
2 of the most iconic villains in fighting game history are Shao Kahn and M. Bison from Mortal Kombat and Street Fighter respectively. While they both have their quirks, advantages, and disadvantages, both of them have been hailed by critics and video game writers as some of the greatest villains in any form of media. But who is the best villain? Is it the otherworldly emperor of Outworld Shao Kahn, hell-bent on conquest, and taking over all of the other realms?...
Milestone has announced MotoGP 15, the next entry in the motorbike racing series heading to PS4, PS3, Xbox One, Xbox 360 and PC in June. This year’s game promises to include extensive bike, rider and team customisation, introducing a new virtual currency called ‘GP Credits’ that lets players purchase over 100 new accessories. Milestone promises that GP Credits can be earned in “any race mode, online and offline”, although it isn’t yet clear whether they can also be purchased using real world cash....
After coming off Milestone’s other recent motorcycle title, Supercross 5, I have to say that swinging into MotoGP 22 felt like a wildly different experience. Even though motorcycles are fundamentally the same in terms of basic structure, just as you can’t compare a Lambo Aventador to a Toyota 4Runner, neither can you compare the dirt bikes of Supercross to the sports bikes of MotoGP. In short, the two-wheeled techniques of this experience are not for the faint of heart or easily frustrated....
For many with an RTX graphics card, Nvidia’s DLSS can seem like magic. The AI-based rendering technology can vastly improve graphical fidelity for games, all the while upping the framerate. In other words, with it enabled, games can look and play better. Once you try it out, it’s only natural for you to desire it in as many games as possible. Luckily for you, and all PC players by proxy, Nvidia has been steadily increasing the list of games with DLSS....
NBA 2K20 has finally released and fans are combing through every part of the 2019 version of the premier professional basketball game in video games today. With every new entry, fans have begun judging the release roster by looking at the overalls players received as well as their likenesses in-game. Every year there’s a handful of players who seemingly get higher overalls based on more than just their play on the court....
Bungie has outlined its plans for the next Destiny 2 update, confirming it will make grinding a bit easier on players looking to reach the 600 Power level. The update will come on December 18 alongside the latest weekly reset, and buffs Prime Engrams for those under Power level 600, allowing them to more efficiently increase this attribute in order to tackle the Black Armory content. In addition to take the heat off grinding, Bungie is also working on fixing a number of issues, including one where having two weapon frames from Ada-1 at any one time will cause the other to disappear....
Bethesda has dropped a new teaser trailer for Dishonored: Death of the Outsider. The standalone addition to the Dishonored series sees Billie Lurk and her former master assassin Daud, also known as the Knife of Dunwall, attempt the impossible: kill a god. In the trailer Daud recruits Billie for the task of killing the Outsider, the supernatural being who gives the assassins of the Dishonored series their powers in the first place, and who has been repeatedly described by Hazel Monforton, a writer on Death of the Outsider, as an ‘eldritch twink Jesus’ (a phrase which this reporter fully endorses)....
Today Riot Games released a new trailer revealing a new champion coming to its popular MOBA game League of Legends. The new champion is named Nilah, and she wields what appears to be an energy whip. She definitely has a spring in her stride, and joy appears to be her theme. The trailer itself is titled “The Joy Unbound.” The trailer shows both a cutscene in which she prepares to fight a massive monster, and gameplay in which she does short work of fellow champions in League of Legends’ lanes....

Many of those who played the RollerCoaster Tycoon series during its prime likely have quite fond memories of it. Managing a virtual amusement park and creating intricate thrill rides from scratch have an undeniable appeal. RollerCoaster Tycoon tapped into that appeal during a time when very few theme park management sims even existed. The series may have lost its luster in recent years, especially with the negatively-received RollerCoaster Tycoon World, but the desire among certain players for a fun new theme park management sim remains....
Yesterday’s announcement of the City changes in NBA 2K23 came with a vague promise of season one information coming closer to launch. It seems now they just wanted to wait until the day it releases (almost everywhere) to announce that the first season of NBA 2K23 will be live at launch. Each season will last six weeks and will offer events and things to earn in MyCAREER, MyTEAM, and The W....
It would appear Nvidia has officially begun the countdown to the RTX 40 Series announcement. A mysterious tweet referencing something called “#ProjectBeyond” appeared on the NVIDIA GeForce Twitter account, alongside an announcement from the company to tune in for a special livestream on September 20 at 11 AM ET. Nvidia’s CEO Jensen Huang will give a presentation at GTC 2022 discuss the “latest breakthroughs in gaming, creating, and graphics technology.”...
Bethesda just can’t catch a break, it seems. Fallout 76, their open-world MMO rendition of the franchise, is considered a critical flop. Critics and players consider it one of the worst games that the company has released. Similarly, their communications haven’t been stellar. Although they did mention some changes in the way they address criticism and speak to the fanbase, another fiasco has reared its ugly head. Enter “Nylongate” — Bethesda’s latest snafu....
Switch owners have already had the opportunity to play Monster Hunter Rise for almost a year at this point. But thanks to the PC port that came out this January, more players than ever can experience the latest and arguably greatest in Capcom’s Monster Hunter franchise. With the Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak expansion set to come out this summer, players will soon have more reasons to continue plugging hundreds of hours into this massive action RPG....
This article contains Once Upon a Time in Hollywood spoilers. Robert Richardson learned what his next collaboration with Quentin Tarantino would be while sitting in the director’s kitchen. The pair, whose partnership goes back nearly 20 years and five movies (depending how you count Kill Bill), have become as close as family. Yet the thing about Tarantino is you don’t really know what his next project is until it’s staring you in the face....
The former OpTic CS:GO roster has officially disbanded. The team struggled to find consistency since parent company Infinite Esports was bought out by Immortals Gaming Club earlier this year. The team had to be released from Immortals to avoid conflict of interest rules, as the organization already owns Brazilian Counter-Strike team MIBR. They had been in search of a new home since, with rumors linking them to various organizations. The roster news began with North’s acquiring of ex-OpTic player René “cajunb” Borg....
