Deus Ex: Human Revolution, the prequel to the original Deus Ex will be releasing in three more months and some more screenshots depicting the game in action have been made available by Eidos and Square-Enix. With a campaign running into the 20+ hour mark, freedom of choice will be a large contributing factor to Deus Ex: Human Revolution’s length. It could be inferred that someone who opts to take a stealth approach over a complete combat approach might take a little longer to beat the game and examples of the varying gameplay styles can be found in the latest gameplay trailer....

Namco Bandai has become pretty well known for its annual Dragon Ball-themed fighting game. Last year’s instalment, Dragon Ball: Raging Blast 2, was very popular among fans of the franchise, and some still play it to this day. With an immense roster and hours upon hours of gameplay and unlockable content it’s not hard to see why fans are so enchanted with the series. If you’ve just begun getting bored with the previous game though, you’ll be happy to know that Namco Bandai is already hard at work on a new version for 2011....

New footage of Pokémon Sword & Shield, which was released during Gamescom 2019, is giving us a glimpse at one of the towns in the Galar region. Shigeru Ohmori, the director of Pokémon Sword & Shield, presented the video showing off one of the early towns in the Galar region. The map of the Galar region was revealed a while back and appears to be an upside-down version of the map of the United Kingdom, with a Scotland-like region in the south and a London-like city in the north....

Yeesh, this is not a good time to be a sim in the world of Sims 4. After the latest update, which added tons of new features including updated wants & fears and sexual orientation options, some glitches have been running rampant in the game. Pretty major glitches at that, with some sims rapidly aging from toddlers to elders and family members going on dates with each other. That’s a pretty drastic way to break Sims 4 with glitches and bugs....

New World hit some roadblocks fairly hard in its opening week, as new MMOs tend to do, but things have quieted down a fair amount. The dev team has been hard at work at getting server transfers ready, and they’re about to become available to the game’s players. To keep things from going sideways, server transfers are going to roll out incrementally. So not everyone will be able to access them immediately, just to play it safe....

If you want to keep your Nintendo Switch Online NES games and cloud saves, you’ll need to “check-in” to the service at least once a week. This information comes from Eurogamer who state that Nintendo is reviving one of the most despised online gaming concepts from a few years ago.

To say No Man’s Sky is different and better than how it launched is kicking in an open door. With six expansions since its release, No Man’s Sky went from one of the most criticized games to winning awards for best post-game content. And Hello Games is not done with its procedurally generated universe, it seems. Quite the opposite, in fact. No Man’s Sky to become more ambitious In a blog post released earlier this week titled “Beyond Development Update 10,” Hello Games reminisces on the latest No Man’s Sky’s updates, including this month’s Exo Mech update....

The PC version of No Man’s Sky may not release until Friday evening, creator Sean Murray has warned. Asked during a Reddit AMA last night whether the PC version will receive a midnight release, Murray explained: “The reality is that we’re still here working on it right now. There’s no conspiracy, we’re just racing to get all the extra options and stuff we want. “PS4 comes out tomorrow and we’ll just try to pretend it’s a normal work day!...

One of gaming’s greatest comeback stories continues to soldier on. Over the course of its six-year run, No Man’s Sky has radically evolved beyond its galactic, but basic, survival game roots. However, there are still improvements being made to the game. No Man’s Sky‘s next bit of free content is here with the Sentinel update — available now. The update overhauls the game’s combat, while making Sentinels an even bigger threat than before....

Square Enix’s online Legacy of Kain spin-off Nosgoth has been cancelled, the publisher has confirmed. The game entered open beta in January 2015 but will not make it to a final release, with the beta due to be taken offline for good on May 31, 2016. Square says that the game failed to find an audience large enough to “sustain ongoing operations”. “It is with a heavy heart and an immense sense of sadness that we must announce the end of Nosgoth’s development,” the game’s community manager wrote on the Square Enix forums....

In very welcome news for fans of the open world mayhem series, Microsoft has announced that Crackdown 2 has joined the first Crackdown on the Xbox One’s back compatiblity service, and just as Crackdown 1 was last month, has released it for free.

While previous OlliOlli skateboarding games are known for their brutal difficulty along with its imaginative pixel art design, its sequel is taking a decidedly different path with a new dimension. If you simply compare the upcoming OlliOlli World to the look of its predecessors, you could hardly tell that they’re part of the same series, given how the new game features 2.5D artwork. The sequel still takes place in the cartoonish world of Radlandia, though....

If you’re a fan of Michael Keaton, long single shots, and Edward Norton making fun of himself, you’re in luck, as Birdman will be released on HBO Max on Feb. 1. The Alejandro Gonzalez Iñárritu film tells the story of Riggan Thompson (Keaton), a faded Hollywood actor mostly known for playing the superhero Birdman. The movie finds him trying to stage a comeback with a Broadway adaptation of Raymond Chandler’s short story What We Talk About When We Talk About Love....

Orange Shirt Kid, the Twitter sensation who created one of Fortnite’s oddest dances, is suing the game’s maker for using his moves without permission. Except he totally did give permission by entering a contest and willingly waiving his rights to the dance. Epic Games held the BoogieDown contest last year, asking fans to submit video of their original dances using social media. The winners had their dances put into Fortnite. By entering, the contest rules stated, they gave up any right to seek payment for their dance....

Mercy and Moira are two hands of the same coin — both healers, both in an Overwatch 2 identity crisis. During the last Overwatch 2 beta, Moira and Mercy received some reworks to put them more in line with the fast-paced nature of the game. However, their reworks received less than stellar feedback, especially as some fans found issues that should have been caught in testing. Activision Blizzard won’t give up on changing these heroes, however, with the developers confirming they will continue to update both Moira and Mercy as Overwatch 2 develops....
