Blizzard Entertainment has rolled out a fresh Overwatch update overnight, adding a bunch of key fixes and introducing League home-team skins for the popular blockbuster shoot-’em-up. The update is live now across PS4, PC, and Xbox One, and allows players to kit themselves out in new team costumes. However, instead of being found in loot boxes, they’re unlocked by spending League Tokens, which can be snapped up for $5 (100 Tokens) or $100 (2,600 Tokens)....

It looks like Steelrising has been delayed for a few months. Previously, the game was set to release in June, but it’ll now see a September 8 release. News like this is always disappointing to hear, but the extra time could be what the game needs in the long run. After all, the upcoming Souls-like from developer Spiders is shaping up to be an impressive title. It’s also the closest we’ll get to having Bloodborne on PC, kind of....

It costs an awful lot to grab cars and upgrades as a street racer, doesn’t it? But there’s actually a very easy exploit that allows you to make money fast in Need for Speed Unbound. It takes a bit to get set up, but once you do the prerequisites, you can find yourself swimming in cash in no time, depending on if you have the patience to go through the motions again and again....

It looks like Nintendo once filed a patent that showcases a fascinating potential design for a Switch stylus add-on. Siliconera seemingly spotted the patent designs which started making the online rounds very recently but were apparently initially filed last year. Nintendo has since started selling a standalone Switch stylus that seems to be designed to give handheld mode users another control option. The proposed stylus seen in this patent would have been a little different....

In Outriders, you embark on a dark journey where you are constantly under threat. With loads of weapons, skills and abilities, you can take on various dangers and enemies and level up. The game in itself is a third person shooter and it has RPG elements as well. But are you wondering if there are romance options in Outriders? Well, even though you may be on a hostile planet, love can bloom anywhere....

They say lightning doesn’t strike the same place twice, but this guy doesn’t believe that at all. Gauss is one of the Altered, a being empowered by the Anomaly in Enoch. Since Gauss is the first boss in Outriders, he’s pretty much the first challenging enemy you’ll face. You’ll encounter him once you reach the Solar Tower area. Here’s our Outriders boss guide to help you defeat Gauss. Note: Stay tuned for our Outriders guides and features hub, coming soon....

Overwatch 2 will begin its second season this Tuesday, Dec. 6 and Blizzard has announced a few changes on how players can earn Ramattra, the game’s newest hero, a bit faster than previously detailed. “After reviewing data for Season 1, we’re moving Ramattra in to Tier 45 of the Battle Pass and making a few more weekly challenges easier to complete,” Aaron Keller, the game’s director, announced on Twitter. Ramattra had been previously placed at Tier 55 in the battle pass for free-to-play players to unlock, same as Season 1’s hero Kiriko, but has now been moved up to an earlier tier....

So far, Microsoft has put itself in an early lead for the impending next-gen console wars. The company fully revealed the Xbox Series X at The Game Awards in December, showing off what the console looks like and is capable of to anxious fans. Now, the company has nailed down its official tagline for the console, having trademarked the phrase that will undoubtedly be plastered on Xbox merchandise for years to come....

Telltale Games has announced that the final episode of its second season of blocky adventure Minecraft Story Mode entitled Above and Beyond will release next week on December 19, and there’s also a trailer to go with the announcement. Jessie’s home Beacontown has now been taken over by the nefarious Admin, and they must put a stop to him once and for all, but first they’ll have to find a way to nullify the Admin’s powers and convince the townsfolk that they themselves are not responsible....

This year’s Minecraft Live show brought along a bevvy of announcements, including Minecraft‘s next major The Wild Update coming in 2022. New features in the update include mud and mangrove swamps, alongside different types of frogs and tadpoles. The Wild Update will also include the Deep Dark biome and the Warden mob. These were originally intended to be included the second part of this year’s Caves and Cliffs update, but have been delayed into this one....

Today Microsoft had an announcement to share that will likely please Minecraft players on PC. Following yesterday’s launch of The Wild Update the two PC editions of the game, Bedrock (which is closer to the console versions) and Java (which is pretty much the original flavor) will now be sold in a single package including both. On top of that, if you already own one, you’re getting the other at no additional cost, and both will be available in a single launcher....

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare has launched to positive critical reception and healthy sales, but it hasn’t been free from controversy. Many fans are upset at one mission in the campaign that, essentially, casts the blame for a real-life war crime onto the Russians. The backlash has even resulted in Russian fans “review bombing” the game on MetaCritic and others voicing their disgust on social media. In a recent interview with GameSpot, Modern Warfare’s narrative director, Taylor Kurosaki, has defended the mission and notes that the mission in question takes place in a fictional location....

Mortal Kombat 11 is the latest game in the long-running fighting franchise. With so many games preceding it, the title has tons of material to pull from for callbacks, references and easter eggs. This game in particular has tons of connections to the two live-action movies from the mid-1990s. But that isn’t what we’re here for now. On this list, we will catalogue 10 of the coolest references that only make sense to fans who played to the original series (that being prior to the 2011 reboot)....

The Mortal Kombat 11 Spawn DLC won’t be out until March 17, but footage of what it will entail has already been revealed by NetherRealm Studios. Some of this Spawn DLC footage includes intro dialogue between him and other characters, and one such interaction lends a lot more credibility to one of the biggest Mortal Kombat 11 Kombat Pack 2 leaks. There is a conversation between Spawn and Raiden in Mortal Kombat 11 where the two discuss Batman....

In some ways, Mythic Quest: Raven’s Banquet Episode 7: Permadeath felt like a season finale of the show. It included a climatic battle, offered the most stakes that the show has seen so far, and gave all of the major and minor characters that we’ve met some screen time. But while Episode 7 resolved one of the show’s biggest conflicts, there is still the matter of Mythic Quest lead engineer Poppy Li potentially jumping ship to Cold Alliance Games....

Naughty Dog’s much-rumoured, but as yet still unannounced, The Last of Us remake for PlayStation 5 will reportedly launch before the end of this year. Word of a PlayStation 5 remake for The Last of Us first surfaced in April 2021 when Bloomberg reported the project had initially been in the works at Sony’s San Diego-based Visual Arts Service Group before Naughty Dog was asked to take over. Further evidence of the project’s existence emerged earlier this year, when a member of Naughty Dog’s QA team listed an “unannounced remake” on their resumé - a reference since removed....

Netflix has dropped two teaser trailers for its live-action adaptation of Resident Evil. The first trailer starts off in New Racoon City in our current year, before fast-forwarding to post-apocalyptic London in 2036. The second trailer focuses on Umbrella Corp as it works on the ‘Joy’ miracle drug that cures all of humanity’s ailments… though is also infused with the T-virus. This is Netflix’s second Resident Evil adaptation, not to be confused with last year’s four-episode CGI series with Leon S....

If you’ve been playing Elden Ring since it launched about a month ago, you’ve probably already beaten Starscourge Radahn, who is one of the main demigods you can challenge in the game. For those who have only gotten it recently and have just beaten him in the past week, however, it turns out Radahn wasn’t exactly at full strength during that period of time. When Bandai Namco and FromSoftware pushed out update 1....
