Harry Potter: Wizards Unite is finally out on mobile devices, and people have already found a way to cheat the system. Wizards Unite takes many of the same features from Pokémon Go and repackages them for the Wizarding World. Instead of throwing Pokéballs, you throw spells. Instead of visiting Pokéstops, you visit inns. And instead of battling in gyms to find out who’s the greatest Pokémon trainer of all, you battle in “Fortresses” against the forces of evil....

Romero, the pioneering filmmaker whose 1968 horror classic Night of the Living Dead changed the face of horror cinema forever. George A. Romero and his small independent film collective created the modern zombie mythology, which has occupied a vast swath of the horror genre from George A....

After countless encounters with Nintendogs and kittens, a few forgotten Tamagotchi, and a little Digimon handheld I tragically lost in elementary school, I realized I just want to go back to Pokemon. Before I had a copy of Yellow, I didn’t experience the joys of Pokemon’s adorably stubby rat mascot following me around until Hey You, Pikachu!. I never actually owned the game myself as a kid, but I did have a neighbor with it, and I bothered that poor child nearly every day for a whole summer trying to squeeze my Pikachu time in....

Fortnite is one of the biggest games on the planet right now, but ‘game’ has never quite seemed like the right way to describe it. This isn’t a cheap “Fortnite isn’t for real gamerz” dunk, I just mean that it seems to have grown into something the phrase ‘video game’ can no longer contain. Fortnite feels less like it’s a toy and more like it’s the box you keep the toys inside of, or perhaps the plastic said toys are made out of....

While Keanu Reeves remains a relevant mainstay in the movie industry after almost 40 years of onscreen acting, one thing that eludes him is a role in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. It’s an especially notable omission, given the genre-dominant direction that he’s taken in the last decade. Thus, as he prepares a return to a signature sci-fi red pill playground in The Matrix Resurrections, Reeves has franchises on his mind, seemingly inciting a rather intriguing answer to a question about a prospective MCU debut....

Like Hades? The rest of Supergiant Games’ library is on sale for up to 80% off this week. Hades just released a few weeks ago and it’s already the 11th highest-rated game on Steam with 98.41% (according to SteamDB). That places it up there with the likes of Stardew Valley, Terraria, The Witcher III, and Portal 2.

The fan-made follow-up to Valve’s and Gearbox Software’s sci-fi title Half-Life: Opposing Force, is out now and is available for purchase through Steam. Independent developer and incredibly devoted Half-Life: Opposing Force fan, Richard Seabrook, has finally finished the follow-up to the Valve-published and Gearbox Software-developed title from 1999, and it can now be enjoyed by PC gamers everywhere. Known as Prospekt — a reference to the old, dilapidated prison in which the unofficial follow-up to Half-Life: Opposing Force begins — it can be purchased and played as a standalone item for $10....

While Halo 3 famously launched with the tagline “finish the fight,” fans of the franchise may not be looking at an end in sight for the current Halo story any time soon. The Reclaimer Trilogy has been renamed the Reclaimer Saga, indicating that Halo Infinite will not wrap up Master Chief’s story. The name makes it more likely that Halo Infinite will end with a hook for the next installment in the series....

The news about Zack Snyder’s cut of Justice League continues to be as inescapable as it is enthusiastic. Especially in a time period when basically all major superhero films have either been halted or pushed back, there’s plenty of free airspace to be taken up by Zack Snyder’s latest project. The latest comments come from Henry Cavill, who was interview on the Happy Sad Confused podcast, and says that he doesn’t care what people think about the project, he’s just happy it’s being made....

Between his work and the way it’s promoted, there’s no doubt that Hideo Kojima is a mysterious figure in the games industry. He’s responsible for some of the most mind-bending plots in video games — but the behind-the-scenes narrative that’s playing out ahead of the release of Metal Gear Solid V might be his most perplexing yet. The Phantom Pain has been steeped in controversy even before it was officially announced....
